Bryant - Congrats. Stunning. Really a grail piece, and your pictures are awesome too (very intriguing piece under different lighting conditions). Last but not least, it goes well with your Rolls Royce. Lucky man!

^^^ Thanks again everyone, I have been wearing this beauty nonstop!!
Even though I have had the 5711 blue briefly and the 5167r for some time,
I am still in awe of the way the Patek dials and the amazing polished and brushed contrast play with light in dazzling ways.

Here are a few more daytime pics as I took the photos last night closer to dusk.

When you change the angle, the dial goes from white to silver.

It is anything BUT a flat white.

Congrats. I also love the white dial 5711. I would love to get my hands on one of those to pair with my AP Jumbo. Enjoy that be!

I think we are having an overdose of blue dials, many 5711/12 have made the rarer white ones nicer, I used to only like white 5726, but like more and more white 5711's

Great watch but is it me or is your watch very very loose? You have the impression you can slip 2-3 fingers between bracelet and wrist
