5712R trade for 5980/1A INCOMING
I've been wanting to do an official incoming thread since I made the choice to trade my 5712R for a 5980/1A and I can't be happier...I just love this piece because it works for wearing daily....I also love it because it flies under the radar...and those that see it and know it, LOVE IT!!!!
Funny story, I was chatting with this guy I know who was boasting about his DD40 and how he had the best of the best.... He didn't even realize I was wearing this Patek. LOL! |

Congratulations on your new watch
 I agree with you that it is a great watch as an "under the radar" daily watch! |

Nice trade. I will say that I'm biased towards the 5712r, but I'm wearing mine right now. Nice new watch. Enjoy!

5980/1A is one of my favorite PP's for all of the reasons you stated. It's the only PP I have and probably the only PP I will ever have.

Congrats! Beautiful watch! I too love the 5712R as much but I understand the leather strap in FL is an issue. Enjoy!

Thanks everyone! I did a quick thread when I started thinking of doing the trade. Almost everyone said to do it!!! That helped push me over the cliff!!! I basically just phoned a few places and got it within 24hrs... You have to love how many Jewelry stores are between Palm Beach and Miami ....

Blue dial and SS are the essence of Nautilus, good move.
