I took these the other night when I had a brief moment contemplating selling the Nautilus. Fortunately no deal was done and it is happily still on my wrist. Anyway, thought I'd share the gratuitous pics I took....

Ha yes, this is exactly what I've always thought. I recently spent 10 days doing work on my girlfriend's new house, during which time the Naut was in a drawer and I was wearing my rather battered Seamaster. One thing led to another and I briefly flirted with the idea that I might sell the 5711. Suffice to say that idea has been fully quashed!Originally Posted by DB9yeti
Absolutely stunning!!!!!! Are you crazy?? Keep it forever.
Sell it for the new 5711R.
Lovely - just reconfirmed my desire to own one........if you change your mind in the future, pls drop me a PM......!!
Cheers
Paul
Wow this is stunning, i would never sell it if i were you
Quoted for truth. Gorgeous watch.
Now you're talking.
Nautilis was conceived as a steel watch and that's hownit should remain IMHO.
But the 5711R is beautiful... Just not sure how wearable!
Tom, I believe I quote you "I'm not precious about it and just wear it"
Keep it mate, Yours was the first I saw on-wrist and loved it.
Love it. Want it. That is all!
Beauty
This is about as perfect as watches can get.
Still glad I didn't sell you my 5711 a couple of years back Tom.
I'd love one of these.
I'll have to do a couple of lines on the lottery this week!
Mate don't make the same mistake as me!!!! I sold it but I bought it back. It's THE best every day beater watch I do everything with it!!!! never gonna sell it ever again!!!!!
That has to be the first time ive seen a Patek referred to as a beater :o)

the 5711 is a watch that has to be worn. It is the ultimate daily wear watch super svelt but solid, even more water resistant then the Rolex explorer for example but uber thin but not flimsy. Classy understated but sporty at the same time. It is for me the BEST one watch if I had to sell everythinf
Did you buy the same one back?!
Yep I'm with you on all of that. There is only one reason I will sell mine - I plan on buying a new one for my 40th. Few years to go but with that price cut and the very long lead time (if you believe Patek!!) I might have to order soon...
yep I bought new from boutique, sold it and then bought it back from
the guy I sold it to!! thankfully all within the forum! never sell it!
Cheap as chips ;-)

I prefer the one he has, would love it if it was the white dial version.
Seems legit...
Ha. That picture must have appeared on at least a dozen dodgy eBay ads in the last couple of months....
On top of my list right now - one of my 2 (maybe 3) watch purchases this year
You won't need anything else... :)
That is stunning mate.
Not normally a Patek fan but that is a sweet watch
I have one on order, but the time ticks by slowly and I have to live off beautiful photos like these - hence I thought I would re-post some of them. Thanks for sharing!I took these the other night when I had a brief moment contemplating selling the Nautilus. Fortunately no deal was done and it is happily still on my wrist.

Out of curiosity, what sort of lead time are they quoting at the moment?
Classy watch :-)
If I ever get the funds together again, I'm buying a white dial version!
It's just a matter of time...
I tried 4 or 5 ADs - none would quote a definite time: one said at least two years, but he had a long waiting list, so I ordered elsewhere. Some people seem to think that you can find them with no waiting, but I failed in that: I guess one might get lucky if you contacted an AD at just the right moment. There is some consolation in anticipation, but that grows stale!
stunning watch and great piccies. now just have to undrool my keyboard.
