If you get bored of Rolex, it's natural to wander off to other brands like Patek, AP, RM, etc.
Based upon "retail pricing", Rolex wins hands down, UNLESS the watch is a ref. 5711/5712. If you want street value, I would say none of the above -> sell all -> buy watch from FPJ. All the watches you mentioned including the Rolex models have been hyped beyond extreme right now.
A PuristSPro friend suggest we take this poll....
This is fact...these 4 Rollie’s retail is equivalent to ONE preowned 5711/1A or 5712/1A or 5726/1A, amazing right? I understand different people’s taste and preferences but imo, the watches in comparison each have their huge support of fans and high deman...
PP 2: Rolexes 0
We can save the Quality discussion some other day but fair enough. Thank you 😊
That is a really hard comparison. You have to remove the value equation in todays market.
Back in the day the 5711/1A was a little more reasonably priced. I love Rolex but the Patek Nautilus range is totally cool. Look this two that both work great. Your Rolex selection/set is awesome. Soory I am no help - picking favorite kids is tough. ...
Times really change but I will count this - PP 3: Rolexes 1
Thanks Bill, it’s a different world in vintage or discontinued models. Good thing I’m just limiting to current modern selections. You have 2 winners on your wrists 👍🏻👏🏻
The 4 Rolex for me with no hesitation against 1 patek
I would have gone for PP if it was not a nautilus (yes I know blasphemy!) Kev
Yah I know
I tried it on and was a bit disappointed but I think it’s because I saw so many people talking about it that I kinda imagined something Even better. Don’t get me wrong it’s a nice piece but I prefer the Rolex. Especially the root beer that I would really ...
Based on your parameters...
Definitely the Patek. But I would argue that it's pretty tough to find these Rolex sport models at retail these days, at least in Asia. You will probably have to pay a premium for a BNIB. J
PP 6: Rolexes 1
All the Nautilus and these Rolexes are tough to find and have to pay premium. Thank you.
Rolex Rolex Rolex Rolex
As an owner of some of the PP you note, but not of any of these specific Rolex (but similar ones), I will say in this or similar cases then 4 always wins over 1.
PP 7: Rolexes 2
But wait....you have some PP but not these Rolexes, so your answers biased? 😂 Anyway, I’m counting...Thank you 🙏🏻
PP 7: Rolexes 7
There’s a Rolex for everyone, that’s why they are so successful. Thank you 🙏🏻

PP 7: Rolexes 7 - no change
Thank you for your input. We can also come to involve FPJ in future
Wow surprised by the responses. These 4 Rolex’s by far.
Having owned or currently own most of your options I can say I value (not money but enjoy) my date sub as much as my Nauty. The 5711A is nice, but is not worth the fuss and I strongly feel in a bubble. Whose to say the ceramic panda Daytona doesn’t reach ...
PP 7: Rolexes 7 - no change again
I see your point, it's hard to say what will the future be, we all wish we have a crystal ball and sell our stocks/401k before Oct market correction Last 2 years or so, I saw a pre-owned 3712/1A selling in the 40s, and I felt it was too high....it's 6 dig...
PP 7: Rolexes 8
Rumors has it that it will be gone soon, get one if you haven’t...if you have one already, congratulations. Thank you Nicole 😊
Yes, it will be gone sone
My reatailer in switzerland told me about it. I love my BLNR Nici
That is great news to people to own it. Thanks for the info.
I guess we’ll have to wait till the official word next April😊
Knowing that the odds of getting...
the 5711 Vs the 4 Rollies are equal I’ll go for Rolex...brings variety that can go for any day for the same money ! 5711 is good but not necessarily something new since it was designed...IMHO. Best, Mahesh.,
Rolex
even at list I believe the 5711 is already way too expensive Buying one secondhand.... just crazy Said it before how much cocaine does one have to take to get a secondhand 5711 if you can have a 5170 for the same price??
Couldnt have said it better my friend 🤗
The second hand Steel PP is way to overpriced imho . Although i am not a big rolex fan i will pick Rolex 👍🏻
PP 7: Rolexes 9
I totally get your point, similar brand with higher complications are being “neglected” which is good for value hunters or people in the know aka collectors like you. Thank you 🙏🏻
PP 7: Rolexes 11
Howdy Mr Green, glad to see you back. Says the man who loves a President. Thank you 😊
I know it's a terrible answer, but it's a draw for me
I'd love a steel Patek, even over list price. But the Rolexes have much more interesting complications (I love dual times). If it was the 5990, it would be a clear winner for me but otherwise the Patek wins the style/quality battle while Rolex gets the fu...
PP 8: Rolexes 12
No answer is terrible answer. Valid points you have, life is not easy choice. Thank you 🙏🏻
It depends on
how many sporty watches do you have in your current collection. If “only” this 4, I won’t let them go for the Nautilus. If much more, than maybe, but only if you bought the Rollies for list price... I think the 4 Rolexes have a bit more market value at th...
PP 9: Rolexes 14
I take that as a toss up so awards to both brands each with their own merits. The range of prices for the models listed are huge, which explains the uncertainty and testing of the supply/demand. I’m assuming if a person can own either, what’s his/her pref...
Blue SD all day long.
Don’t even need all 4 just one for me. Followed closely by the Daytona. M.
PP 9: Rolexes 15
There are no SD but since you mentioned Daytona, I assumed you lean towards Rolex 😊 Of course, Mr Daytona. Thank you 🙏🏻
Rolex all the way!
Now if it is a Patek Chrono Perpetual, my answer will be different.
PP 9: Rolexes 18
That one is a different league, not sports category. We’ll have to bring in PN Daytona or Rolex calendars for that show down 😉 🙏🏻
rolex...
Nautilus doesn't do much for me. If it was a different patek, depending on the model, my answer would be different. but in this case it's rolex..
PP 9: Rolexes 20
I have to set a binding condition here. There is really no right or wrong answer here. Thank you 🙏🏻
Latest poll: PP 10: Rolexes 23
Adding aperna5549 and Watch_kha_wen’s input in middle of threads
I know, and was surprised what a twist of event...sure it will be fun to rematch....
If you put a PP 5131 cloisonné or your Specialty Cinque Terre vs 8-10 Rolexes....I’m sure you will win hands down 😄
I’d take the 4 Rolexes. But it’s not a fair comparison when comparing Rolex retail to 5711 secondary price.
The Rolexes also sell for a premium.
PP 10: Rolexes 24
The price range is quite large so average it out will be still almost similar even I use secondary market for the 4 Rolexes. Thank you 🙏🏻
Hello, PP 5712 for me ...
I love Patek and i love Rolex , but for Rolex i love only vintage watches ...
Final tally results - PP 11: Rolexes 25
This is just my takeaway: Both sides are all winners in each of their own class and category. PP is high end luxury brand, a desirable ultimate goal/grail watch by many and probably will wear for special occasions and preciously protecting any damages so ...
