Second try: the 5740
As my first post was cut off in the middle by some intergalactic interference, here's another go. No need to introduce the Nautilus PC, as this was beautifully done by others in the forum (our dear Centurionone helped me to get my regular fix while waitin...
Thanks Daniel for a beautiful and very personal owner review -- your love for this great Nautilus reference transpires on each line!
What's also striking is how each picture describes the dial very differently, depending on the angle....The first one could as well be that of a future 5740/1R version! ;-)) Thanks again for sharing this beauty and your detailed thoughts about it ;-)
A great idea! A /1R version would be a real stunner.
Not for me though. I'm a low-key kind of guy, so the G is perfect for me.
Congrats Daniel on a true piece of art 👌🏻
Great shots! Enjoy it in the best health! ...
Thank you, 1Watchman! I always knew your alias is lying to us, now here we have the beautiful proof :-)
Thank you for the appreciation, and enjoy your cool Nautilus trio.
I'm afraid that this trio doesn't belong to me
I had the opportunity to try it on during a Patek event when this ref. was launched 😉
Thanks Daniel, I was actually very tempted at the time
But my love for my 5712 is quite strong, and there's no room in my collection for both. ...
I fully agree.
I almost bought a 5712G back in about 2010, when such things were entirely possible.
The 5712G is definitely another favorite of mine
Sometimes I'm not sure if I prefer it over the 1A.
I loved the case and strap of the G but the blue dial of the 1A.
So ended up buying neither at that time. Now, the 5740 is the perfect match for me. Have a great Sunday!
Very special watch indeed
I can only guess what it must be like, wearing it. Thanks for your thoughts on it and the pictures. Feel free to post some more if you want to... 😉 George
I am thrilled that you love it as much as I do! Wear it in health and happiness
Been wearing mine since the day I got it almost daily. The danger being now any steel watch feels insignificant on your wrist when you are used to the heft
Thanks a lot Henry! I was enjoying your review and pictures while waiting for my watch.
Are you wearing yours today? Best, Daniel
Certainly, Daniel. Has this beauty on wrist for nearly a month.
Have a great weekend! ...
The 5712 is a gorgeous piece, you wear it very well!
I almost bought a 5712G some years ago. I‘d have pulled the trigger if they’d made a blue dial version. I love the dial, the complication and above all the elegant, slim case proportions of the 5712. Luckily I find all this again in the 5740 as well, with...
Thanks Daniel! My favorite stealth “features”
Of the 5740 is the thinness of the PC and the location of the pushers integrated in the lugs...
