I would have declined the 1:1 swap too. The steel nautilus is badass. I prefer the blue over the black, but either of those 5980/1A would make me do a victory dance.
If you put up a 5980/1R with your AP ROC with full bracelet; that would be a more fair comparison from the crowd. Price wise theyre in two worlds, but both being RG and on bracelet.
I feel the 5980/1A has wrist presence and the weight doesn't make you chop your wrist off. Unlike the 1R it's light and comfortable over a long period of time.
In terms of scratches...AP's RG is a lot more robust than Patek's fragile RG. Christ, you get hairline scratches on your bezel of a 1R by just running a shirt over here.
