My New PP5711/1A

Hello everyone...years of waiting and savings and finally deciding between PP5711/1A and AP15202. Both from same designer. It gives me great pleasure to be proud owner of my first Patek Philippe Nautilus 5711/1A. Here are some photos.

Love that watch. Congrats and wear it in good health! Can't go wrong with either since they were designed by the same person.
