Prob wouldnt swim with either to be honest

5711 "hotter" market wise but UK AD told me 5712 now has 2 year waiting list so guess getting more popular!

Guess sensible thing is to start with 5711 as easier to upgrade then the other way around if need be since more in demand.

Other thing on my mind is an Aquanaut at some point so guess would make sense to have a final combo of a plain dial and complication i.e. 5711 & 5164 or 5172 & 5167

Should be in London next week so going to find grey dealers which have some of these in stock just so I can try (5711 unlikely but others poss)
Watchclub, Pasha and Luxe seem to have 5711 on chrono24 so good chance one is not lying. Prices all horrible ofc.
