Haha--I'd say the 5712 is too close to the others so I won't be completing the blue SS set. But I would like that P for sure I'd flip the 5711/1a towards it. There are other pieces I'd add first. Maybe one day...

Congrats! the 5980 and 5711 can definitely coexist. IMO VC is a great value and good discounts are to be had. Even better preowned. Vacheron definitely does not get enough love.

Thanks, Chris Lots of great discounts here in HK as of late with China slowing and the corruption crackdown. Great for buyers--not so much for sellers. Almost too tempting The VC is definitely under rated--good for me

Agreed about the VC--not enough love going around for the Overseas IMO

Sounds like you'll be missing a 5712, as well Seriously though, good call on letting yours go as they are not investments and you seemed to get pleasure from your's while you had it. Also gives you a chance to upgrade the next time
