I baby my Pateks too much for fear of scratches to the intricate brushed and polished finishing. I usually bring my Rolex Subs for beach, holiday wear.

Looks good on you!

I think I’ve mentioned this before but generally when traveling I take a simple and versatile watch. Something which works for all occasions be it suits or shorts. Usually the decision is between my Chronometre Bleu and the 5711. This time the 5711 won ou...

...than the traditional blue grey dial we are used to see. For summer particularly it must be a great option 👍. Congrats and wear it in good health. Mike

Indeed Mike, I've been told various things re production with the highest indication (in terms of white dial production) being 1 white for every 2 blue.

The number is irrelevant for me though, when I had the choice I chose the more interesting / attractive dial. Which for me was the white.

Safe journey

5711 is the perfect travel companion. Very versatile as you say.

Agree, Jay :-) [nt]

My buddy has a 2 watch every 30 day rule

he ends up wearing his watches once a year based on this rule (40+ watches). He takes out two pieces from the safe and wears them for a month then rotates another two pieces every 30 days. Might try it and see how it works out for me.

Lovely! White dial goes well for travel too!

My 5711 takes a back seat for long distance travel. It’s usually the 5164 that accompanied me. ...  

Of course a travel time or GMT would mail more sense for traveling but funnily enough I always leave those at home.

For me, it's more about the versatility of the watch than the function when traveling.
