The gold brush on the bezel and case is exquisite, AP and PP really excel at this. I'm surprised the RG 5711 is not more popular really, I love the blue dial but just something about that gold.

Well done sir! Love them both but as a guy with zero gold pieces I'd dearly love to have a 5780r or 5711r as a first...

Cheers!

Ken, In that case maybe we should break open one from a little earlier vintage.
Or maybe to honor you we should get something else.

Very nice!! I actually love the 2010 Caymus SS and bought as much as I could find--drinking a glass right now. It is a great go to reasonably priced wine and a great vintage for them! As for Hundred Acre you know that is my favorite and I will open up an 07 Ark on Saturday which is a 100 rated wine. Mmmm good!

You have great taste my friend!
