Change consideration

Hi everyone ) Recently have tried this beauty, now thinking of substitution of my 5980 on it…what is your opinion dear watch lovers ? ...  

Both are beautiful watches. The 5712/1R-001 is slimmer, more elegant

and can be worn more easily under long sleeves…

Unless you have a clear use of the chronograph function, I would go with the 5712

Which is indeed more elegant thanks to its thinness

Both beautiful but i still like the 5980 a bit more tbh .

the dial layout of the 5980 is more balanced imho

whether you want a bigger wrist presence. Both pieces are great and if possible, have both. Let us know your decision and how you made it.

5740 will be your most elegant option

Out of the two the 5712 is my favorite

It's thinner and more graceful.

You can't make your own decision?

You're really going to let other people influence your decision on what watch you wear???

First and foremost no one can influence my decision and it will be made out of my own feelings And second , are you having a bad day? I thought this forum was about discussing watches and steps we make toward them)

Then why are you asking for opinions?

 
 By: patrick_y : September 8th, 2023-16:34
That obviously can't be true. You're asking for opinions in your original post, and in your post responding to me says you won't be influenced. So... That makes no sense... You're asking for opinions. Now you're saying all these opinions are going to be c...

If the choice is one or the other I would keep the RG one but Steel Nautilus is more versatile and wearable in all circumstances

the ideal option is both: financially I think is like cash in the bank (if bought from an AD of course) + appreciation so totally worth it.

My vote goes to the 5712

In my opinion the chrono pushers ruins the iconic nautilus case shape
