how do u thiank of size about nautilus 5711 & 5800?
I have a 5711R, and decide to buy another still nautilus model
but I can't decide between 5711A and 5800A I expect most of all say 5711 is perfect size to me. but I think that size of 5711 is a little big, but not much on my wrist, cause I prefer "relatively" small watch but not too small It didn't mean 5711 isn't suitable for me, but not 100% satisfied cause of size so my concern is that 5800 is too small or not for my wrist. I can't try it on because of many reasons. So if u have information about 5800, plz advise about size among the popular model(ex. rolex DD, AP 15450, etc..) which is similar size to 5800 ?? thanks for any advise |

I was debating 5711 vs 5800 back and forth years ago. My wrist size is about 17 cm and I do like small watches despite being 193 cm tall but slim. For example, I am very happy w a 34 mm Calatrava 3998P.
On the wrist the size difference between the 5711 and 5800 felt much larger than on paper. In the end the combination of small size AND wide bezel did not work for me in the 5800 as that combination makes the dial too small for my taste. I went 5711/1A and have had no regrets in terms of size. |

Being north of 60 years old I prefer a smaller size after leaving the the 40 to 43 sizes. My 5066 is perfect I think and I'm over 6 feet tall and 195lbs.
The biggest factory is age and the size of the watch. |

My wrists are only 6 1/3 inches and I wear the 11 very comfortably.
You should be fine. The 11r looks great on you. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

5711 1/a is much lighter weight than the rose gold one, as the 5711r looks good on your wrist, you'll like the 5711 1/a much better than 5800.

Has to be 5711- you will love it! I also have small wrists and a 5711R but my 5711 white gets more wrist time than all my other pieces .
