5711 - the classic
5740 - for the complications
In truth all are beautiful and wear well :-)

Early white dial, fun hands. Faaaar too many blue dial versions so-as to disqualify them due to being just more of the same imho.

5811. Just has a much nicer dial than the 5711. And it “might” become a more collectible nautilus than SS.

I will probably sound arrongant :-)
But I don't care.

The most classic/ iconic IS THE 5711, other answers are just wrong

If one asks which one you like the most, than we van have a discussion.
But a Nautilus was made simple and clean so it is the 5711, if you would also take into account vintage pieces it should mention the 3700

So the 3700 and 5711. I know people wo prefer the first, others the last. But that is the only correct answer

"Classic/quintessential Nautilus" is obviously the 5711.

The Nautilus I want (and never will have, and that's ok

) is the 5712.

I agree the white gold 5811, along with the 2 piece case, puts it at the Nautilus leading edge but I suspect Mr Stern may make more of them as he pulls away from steel.

+1 on the 5811... It's perfection... Also, 5712/1A... But I might be a bit biased... ha ha...

The design from 1976.

I was just about to say the same, find the best one you can and a complete set if possible.
