Just as the title suggests, which do you think is harder to get?

scimps · 1 July 2016, 06:18 PM

I guess it depends where u live

It seems that the 5711 might be the answer to me cos in the last few months I have physical seen a Daytona c at a gray dealer

Narbeh · 1 July 2016, 06:19 PM

5711 new sealed for sure

Alex Leonat S. · 1 July 2016, 07:13 PM

5711 especially blue dial

japenney · 1 July 2016, 08:17 PM

5711 in Canada. Phoned all 4 patek AD. Several year wait list. Decided patek was not for me as a brand.

RUK · 1 July 2016, 08:32 PM

Daytona can be had this year if you know the right ADs, 5711 no one can guarantee when you can get one

dera · 1 July 2016, 09:20 PM

Both depend how well your scratch your ADs back. Both can be had for various premiums from grey dealers immediately, and both can be had quickly or after a very long wait, depending how much your AD likes you.
So answer is: Yes.

GB-man · 1 July 2016, 09:20 PM

Both can be had today for a price.

5711 blue

If you guys come to London you can probably afford to pay the ten grand premium Watchfinder usually has on both of these.

5711 has been difficult to get for years! Doubt the Daytona will be able to say that after a year!

speedy_master1 · 1 July 2016, 11:00 PM

Out of those two I say the 5711 but 5711 Tiffany & Co dial, Now try to get that.

HorologyK · 1 July 2016, 11:22 PM

Neither for me

alexlt730512 · 1 July 2016, 11:45 PM

5711 for sure

5711

Easy always 5711. I've not tried to get a Daytona c but both previous stainless black and white dial have been in stock either one or both everytime I go to my ad in past. Usually just one in stock but it's there. Exact same for Daytona c in the next year or so.

thomaspp · 2 July 2016, 11:40 AM

Honestly both seem fairly easy to get at this point

If you're willing to pay a premium in the secondary market, both are very easy obviously.
However from the AD, the 5711 has been difficult to get for many years, I predict the Daytona C will be extremely easy to get at least in our part of the world (Middle east), in the next 6-10 months.
So 5711 would be the harder one IMO.

CLuxlover · 3 July 2016, 08:32 AM

Seems 5711 is the clear winner...

Yes, you are right. 5711 is the clear winner!

Congrats to all those who have one!

locutus49 · 3 July 2016, 02:13 PM

5711. There are fewer Patek ADs than Rolex ADs.

Agree.

Only difference for I see is You have to save twice as much money for one of them.

116500 must be the most readily available Rolex launch for years

You'll probably find a unicorn first!

Robert993 · 4 July 2016, 05:42 AM

5711 blue dial. 2-3 years wait
Daytona C. 2-3 month wait.

RussW · 4 July 2016, 07:26 AM

Harder to get full stop, or harder to get at list price?
Harder to get with a good relationship with an AD, or harder to get for a first time buyer?
Harder to get in the short term, or long term?

Ten grand on both? You're joking right? I kinda get on the 5711 even if it's a rip off, but on the Daytona? Sure like many new Rolexes they're hard to get, BLNR, and many others were hard to come by at first, but after a while they're not anymore, while the 5711 was, is and always will be hard to come by, even impossible in some parts of the world, would be amazed if a first time Patek buyer could get one from an AD in France especially but Italy as well, probably other countries also...
