AD offering pick of incoming 5711A(White) or 5164A
Hey guys,
So I recently got my wife a 7021R and the AD is offering as a "reward" a pick an incoming 5711A(White) or 5164A. I'm currently on a three watch rotation: 5170P and 5146J for work and a Platona for casual/weekend. Which piece do you think fits better into my watch rotation? Thanks in advance for your insights! Cheers, |

I gotta ask... so you bought ur wife a 7021/1R and you have 2 other amazing watches and he is giving you the opportunity to buy a dainty 5711 white or 5164a
He should be offering you more than a choice?... |

Have both and prefer the 5164 but rule number 1 is don’t pass on a 5711. You just don’t.

I will ask for a 5740 if I buy the 7021 from an AD.

Does the reward mean it’s free? Pick one?? Or you receive a shortcut in the waitlist.. I would assume a significant discount off msrp for the piece.

Both are excellent pieces, can't go wrong with either. Since all your pieces are precious metal and the PPs on the dressier side, I would personally go for the 5164 as the Aquanaut is the most practical weekend / travel type of SS watch from PP (the Nautilus bracelet can be quite scratch prone). Depends on whether the Platona already covers that role well.
