That 5170 is all the deep blue you need. Its gorgeous. I think the 5711r will compliment that collection perfectly

After seeing the pictures, I'd say the 5711R to add color variety. That's one heck of a collection.

If you’re going to do it, now would seem like a good time, while the 5711/1a is so hot.

I wouldn’t personally. The 5711/1r is undeniably a thing of beauty, more so than the 1a, but I don’t wear rose gold watches. I also think the 1a is perfect for daily wear whereas the 1r seems like a more special watch you might want to treat a bit more gently.

That 5170p looks familiar, and lovely.

And hope to add back the Platona one of these days. 🤦🏻*♂️

Yes I know, the PP 5170 P is the absolute burner.
But i still don't know if i should sell my 5711steel and buy a rose gold 5711........
I don#t know do you mean i will loose a lot money when i want to sell it once(the R)?

No you will not lose money, in the next 6 months you probably can make a small profit.

With your collection i think the RG R would fit beautifully. Everything you have is platinum with a blue face.

My only worry for you is if you don't like it and want the steel back, wait time and cost.

Good Luck

I love the 5711R and personally prefer it over the SS.. and it sounds like you might wear it more so I'd go for it!

This is a weird poll and completely bonkers but it is what it is in today's market.....I pick the stainless 5711a because I like it best in terms of aesthetics with the blue dial.....but if I owned the 5711a and I loved the 5711r more.....no question I'd make the move while the market is hot IMO.

Both beautiful watches.....and many enablers here slanging the 5711r changing my mind slowly day by day.
