Man plans, God laughs

My AD called me to say he had something special for me...Now not going to lie; it wouldn’t be the first Nautilus to come to my mind, but definitely grew on me. And love it! Plus I got a nice discount as well

NEVER in my life would I think I’d ever purchase a two toned watch!!

I never thought I'd ever see a Nautilus I liked, but I totally love it in TT .. Congrats, and wear it in great health. It is beautiful.

The more I look at the pics, the more I love this watch. This is the only time I have ever felt this way about a Nautilus .. My favorite PP's are the 3919 and the 5111. The 5111 I love the most is TT. 5111 pr .... Platinum case with rose gold trim.

Maybe two tone isn’t popular in NY?

the 5980AR is highly underrated, it is very beautiful. the blue dial is phenomenal and fits so well with the RG bezel. two-tone haters need to look away:::))))
mine is on order, should come later this year - after i stupidly refused the last offer of my AD to buy one:::))))
