Incoming 5712

Just picked up my 5712 from my AD and couldn’t stop smiling on my drive back home. All i got to say is I love this watch. As soon as i got it out in the sunlight i knew it was more of a elegant/classy watch when comparing it to the royal oak. The light case/bracelet makes it feel more of a daily wearer / can barely tell you’re wearing it which can feel a bit weird in comparison to other sports steel watches but it works. The blue dial is amazing and gives different shades depending on if you look at it from an eagle point of view or looking from a angle. I am now sure i chose the best nautilus and wont take it off the wrist!

Moonphase, power reserve, micro rotor, blue dial, do i need to say more?

Something special next week so stay tuned

Congratulations! The 5712 was my first Nautilus, and agree it is still the best.

Congrats my friend! I agree it is much better than the RO as I have owned a few in the past. Wear her in good health.
