Patek Philippe

I wouldn't swim with it...

 

The 5712 models are only rated for 60 meter depths.  I don't think 60 meter depth resistance is good enough for swimming duty.  


Go for the beautiful 5711/1A for swimming duty and we've seen an individual on PuristSPro with a 5980/1A who even activated his chronograph buttons under water!  

I know of an individual who showered with his 5712/1A within two weeks of owning it and water penetrated subsequently ruining his movement and he ultimately had to have the entire watch replaced.
