My 5711 Has a Brother From a Different Mother
A few weeks ago I received a call my 5711 arrived. It was originally expected before the end of the year. Couldn't get to the AD until this past Saturday. It is the first time I've seen one in the flesh.

Thanks for the kind comments everybody.
I think I know her!!! Why does Patek let this happen. They should buy this watch to find the AD that sold it and yank his dealership. Both. White the beginning of January & Blue a few days ago. Frankly I am a little disappointed in the watch for that reason. In most light it reads gray. |

Is it just me or does it seem the logo printing on the white dial is lower than the blue?

Insane amount of money,(Patek has no right now "with all the poor QC" to demand going over retail) ; like other member said in another thread : if you want it just be ready with routing number and account number at hand and call every single AD in the US and you can get it.

The writing is different between the 5711 variants:
5711/1A-010 (blue face, steel) has the writing on the ridges. This is also the only variant without a framed date window. The others have writing on a filled in area between the ridges: 5711/1A-011 (white face, steel), 5711/1R-001, 5711/1P (Both the original and 40th Anniv. Pt models) Congrats, imcarnuts — they look great together! |

Looks like the hour markers are longer on the white.

Way to go! Maybe I missed it, but how long did you wait for these watches?
