I’d never pay over list for one.

I’m patiently waiting for the call for a blue one. Hopefully towards end of year or early next year.

I am in the market for a 5711, but Govberg has none of them in stock for some reason.

I’m tempted! If i could get a new blue dial for 35k, I might just do it.

Agreed. It seems crazy to pay 35K for a 5711 when you can have a 5712. Though judging from my WTB posting, even 35K can't buy a 5712 these days.

If it gets discontinued soon, the price goes way north of 50k! Sad, but true.

Just some knowledge for folks: as an AD we get approximately 15-20 calls a week from all over the world for a 5711. The demand is astronomical. This is quickly becoming true for all steel Nautilus, including (and specifically) the 5712. It becomes especially problematic due to the amount of interest from individuals intending to flip the watches. It is not easy for retailers either...trust me, its not that someone does not want to sell the watches! haha.

The only reason i would condone someone buying it is to get a peek at the Certificate of Origin to see if they received it as an AD piece.

They are for sale but at big premiums from the resellers, especially in Europe. Most individuals who have had them are probably sitting back and looking at the market, playing the wait and see, to see where the market goes, if they are even considering selling. But, if you want a double sealed blue, I saw one yesterday for sale on line. What will be interesting is to see if the 5711 and 5712 are discontinued and new Nautilus models appear with similar functions. Both these watch references have been out there a while and may be due for reinterpretation.

I saw this one or one similar last week. Now it’s out of stock! They seem to go quick at these prices.

I'm new to PP and recently received a 5712 but honestly I don't see all the hype for a 5711. It's pretty but I don't see why it's selling for that much over list. It tells time! That's it! And while I'm on this subject - is everyone nuts or is it just me that the hype behind the 5522 is also crazy. If it was a little bit bigger I could use it as a clock! I know limited edition. But still... Well maybe I'll call my AD and see if I can get one or the other.

There is no asking price listed. When the item was in stock, I recall that the asking price was $29k and change.

Hype behind 5522 is not crazy. Legend has it that women flock to the wearer like the swallows of capistrano

It's true. Just the other day I was wearing it and a female dog barked at me.
