5990. took some trial and error to get there but the thin Nautilus just isn't me. The 5712 is by far the most beautiful watch probably ever in my opinion, but wearing it i felt like i was forcing it to be for me.

Gotta be the 5726a in strap... Fell in love with it 7 years ago and just pulled the trigger this month. Beautiful all rounder, should've gotten it much earlier - glad I did now!

5711 original and water resistance is paramount for me on a sports watch.

Probably the original non-anniversary 5711P, but of the standard production pieces nothing beats the asymmetric magic of the 5712/1A grey-blue dial:

5712 is my favorite, but close second is 5726.

Seconding this despite voting 5711/1a w my wallet as I was sure I would always like the 5711/1a while I was afraid I might get tired of the 5712/1a at some point. Now debating 5712/1a again, this time vs getting in line for the 5711/1r.

I am inclined towards the 5990. Such a useful complication
