Demand vs Supply will always be the driving force behind the 5711, especially at a time when Steel Sports watch has been making a comeback across all brands. |

1) Buying a mint or NOS 5711 is straightforward, at this point still with warranty if you wish so. 2) Finding a good full set 3700 with cork box and all can be hard work and is too much effort for most people. 3) Telling a great and original vintage Nautilus from a soso watch requires experience which takes time to develop, and any mistake will be costly. 4) Younger people can relate to the 5711 whereas the 3700 is a nearly 50y old reference from their parents' or grandparents' time. Number 3) is the reason for me missing out on a steel 3700/1 with cork box and certificate for around 40k nearly a decade ago. My hairdresser had bought two 3700 in a private deal and thought about moving on. I hesitated while the biggest preowned dealer in town did not... |

The constant complaining is getting tiresome. The situation has been like this for years now. Adapt or find another hobby. |

My take is that 5711 features more prominently in IG and IG is the buzz and hype. I seldom see 3700 in IG comparatively.

Anyone who doesn't believe me when I say that a lot of these watches that trade at overly inflated prices are trading "wholesale" between grey dealers, just watch this: https://www.instagram.com/reel/CaLFYpJjyE4/

The 3700 with its monoblock case design is really special and after trying both, I do prefer the monoblock case design of the original jumbo.
Also the vintage font of the “Patek Philippe” logo and the location of it gives the vintage feel of the dial. The sigma dial also is something special in PP history. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
