Haven’t Worn This One in Too Long - 5712!
I haven’t work the 5712 in a few months and had forgotten how perfect this watch is. I had to take this occasion to snap a few pics. Cheers!

Absolutely lovely. :) Hope you continue to enjoy in the best of health! And thank you for sharing.

(Also, I think your moonphase is 2-3 days off. :D)

You are totally right. I set it at work today and didn’t have an appropriate pusher with me so didn’t set that part!

It sure does. I have picked up a few new ones over the last 6 months and have been wearing them more often. The Rolex 116519LN has been getting more than its share of time. And I find myself wearing my 5165 a lot too....something about the casual appeal of rubber straps I guess.

But, wearing this one again today totally reminded me how perfect the 5712 is.

Looks great! Must be hard to pick between that and the 5740 as they are both just awesome.
