Well, while we are waiting lets take a look. I saw this one in a magazine, on the way back from LA. It's very nice! 5170J Yellow Gold.

I used to have a 5712/1a, wore it for about a month. Stunning watch, but felt too flimsy and thin for my liking, so I ended up trading it. I'm sure I have pics with it on, but no 'wristshots'. Just gotta find them.

Don't you have lots of folders and sub folders neatly labelled, Greg? Tut-tut

I'll play. Here's my 5711/1A. I wanted a casual PP on bracelet that wasn't complicated. As I'm not a big fan of the Aquanaut bracelet to rubber strap, Nautilus it was.



Thought about some of the dressier PPs but they tend to be too complicated for me except maybe a nice simple Calatrava.

I thought about getting the 5712/1A but didn't like the complications. My tastes are changing towards the simple.

Here is the one I sold. I purchased it new and sold it after 7 years because I only wore it 3 or 4 times.
