I agree with these three but the 5740/1G must be first. The perfect Nautilus. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Less is More... Very boring, I know ...
5711 blue
5712 blue 5711 white Very boring, I know ... but I don't like marrying the Nautilus design and the idea of it being a sports watch with AC or PC complications. Chrono complication does make sense in my mind but I couldn't have pushers "mess" with the design and don't like the thick cases. Also continue to prefer SS over PM for the Nautilus. As a result I am down to the SS 5711 and 5712 as if it was 2006 rather than 2019 - the latter would work for me as I like its playfulness and the asymmetric dial breaking with the "strict" case design. Surprisingly though I prefer a little 3998P over my 5711/1A blue for "no-ding" days and a tool watch that can take a beating - in my case a Mark XV pilot on SS bracelet - when working on the car or bike or when boating, flying, hiking etc. |

To me, all natilus are lovely, each having its own merits but : 1. Must be in bracelets 2. Blue dial 3. The least waiting time |

I had a 5726 and traded for a 5327 which I really like- so far :-)! The 26 I just couldn’t appreciate- for me it was too bulky and I didn’t like the leather croc or rubber strap. I do have a 5167 in rose gold I really enjoy. Probably for me:

5712/1a
5726 5980/1r Would have put the blue 5980 if this wasn't limited to current production. Also need to mention the 5711 White. |

Good to see people selecting 5726 as a choice. It baffles me why this model gets so much hate. It is less thicker than 5880/5900 and aesthetically more pleasing compared to the 5990, IMHO

Any as long as it’s white metal and on a bracelet.
