Seriously there isn't a better looking Nautilus IMO! Sigh..

Haven't seen this specific Nautilus in the flesh, but the pictures alone make me sad.
I must say that I do have a preference towards the clean dials on the Nautilus design, over complications. I like the dressier Pateks with complications.

This specific blue dial, with the rose gold, and on leather strap, is just out of this world.
I should be receiving my Patek 5711 blue dial in a few weeks. I have handled it many times and I absolutely love it. It is the perfect everyday Nautilus for me as it is SS, extremely versatile with casual to formal, the WR is high, the dial is just so beautiful, it has the beautiful bracelet, and not to mention it fits my budget.

I don't know if I could justify this 5711R as my one and only even if it did fit the budget, as I love a Nautilus on a bracelet. I honestly wouldn't hesitate to buy it as my second if I had the budget; unfortunately not the case.

Do any of our members on here own this beautiful reference?

Have to agree that's a beauty. Wish they would have used that dial on the 5711/1r

Man, that is a good looking watch. Blue contrasts well there with the rose gold case.

That's the 5711R and the dial is grey/brown not blue, otherwise I would have bought one. The chocolate of the 5711-1R seems more vibrant.

It's not blue in real, but it changes color like many Naut dials, I do prefer it to the choco dial of the new 5711-1R
