5712 vs 5164a.. third watch??

Now that 5712 has been discontinued, I feel so fortunate to own 2 of the coveted discontinued models. Which do you prefer of the two?

If I were to get a third Patek, what would be your recommendation? I have 3 kids, so I’m planning a third watch for one of the girls, so preferably something I can wear yet possibly pass down to my daughter.. appreciate your inputs..

(I was thinking a 5167r or AP RO 16202st or Daytona panda, but worry the latter 2 are not comparable to a Patek in terms of value. Trying to keep it fair)

5164 looks so much better than the bastard child 5712

A 5167R would be very nice to add some color to the collection. Or a 5811G.

With two complicated watches I'd want a simple three-hander with date.
