Incoming 5712/1a
Happy to collect my 5712/1a today!

Wait was around a year. Prior purchase history is a 5205g

Congrats - the 5712 and 5205 complement each other beautifully. Pretty incredible to get as a 2nd - I’m struggling to get it as a 5th!

That's fantastic news—congrats on the 5712/1A! It’s such a stunning piece with that beautiful complication. A year-long wait must make it feel even more rewarding, especially coming from a prior purchase like the 5205G. Your collection is shaping up to be truly impressive—enjoy wearing it!

I'm glad to hear someone being taken care of by an AD without games. Enjoy in good health.

Congratulations OP! It's the best steel sports watch in the world, IMO.

As an additional data point I also got a 5712/1a as a second Patek (first was 5146r), also in the UK but this was back in 2022.

Might be a quirk of the local market, but if you simply went off what people say online they would believe this to be impossible.

Such a great combo, one of my favorite straps on the 5205 as well. Enjoy the new watch.

Thank you. I initially wanted the 5726, but figured 2 annual calendars may be a bit pointless.

Have you been offered any sports pieces from your AD?
