I was debating 5711 vs 5800 back and forth years ago. My wrist size is about 17 cm and I do like small watches despite being 193 cm tall but slim. For example, I am very happy w a 34 mm Calatrava 3998P.

On the wrist the size difference between the 5711 and 5800 felt much larger than on paper. In the end the combination of small size AND wide bezel did not work for me in the 5800 as that combination makes the dial too small for my taste. I went 5711/1A and have had no regrets in terms of size.
