Incoming 5711

I said i was done for a while and i really intended to be, but stopped by my AD this morning to look around and was offered a 5711 in my preferred color. Sort of stunned, but its not like i could turn it down either so here it is

I really do love the clean white dial and of course the fit and comfort is amazing

So thanks

Big congratulations on being offered a highly coveted piece. What a pleasant surprise you must have had.

Congrats, you’re on a roll! I dismissed the 5711 a few years ago compared to the more complicated models, but may be changing my mind. I think the Nautilus works best with a thin case.

Well it certainly was a major update, resulted in a new 5711.

i really like both the thick and the thin cases. The 5990 is just perfect and sporty and the 11&12 are more smart and elegant. I cant say that i prefer one thickness over the other, as each is perfect for what each watch is.
