for me the lack of the seconds hand is a clear deal stopper

2. That the 5712 has a water rating of 60m instead of 120m because of the 240 movement, not the pushers.

Many people have said that the 5712 had a lower water rating than the other Nautilus watches because of the pushers to correct the moonphase and date. However, I always thought it had something to do with the 240 movement because the 5712 was the only Nautilus with that movement whereas the 5726 had pushers and still retained a 120m water rating. Even with advances over the past 12 years since the 5712 was introduced, the 5740 still came out with a 60m water rating. The 5740 and the 5712 are the only two Nautilus watches to be rated 60m-- and the only two to have the 240 movement. Now what about the 240 movement causes it to have a lower water rating I have no idea...
------------------
I do not know if it was corrected already or not , nothing to do w the cal 240 or the pushers , the problem is the caseback (snapback) therefore the limited WR

The colour of the 5740g WG is beautiful on the wrist.

I got distracted by the currency denomination. I always thought it was either USD or US$.
