That's kind of a hard decision to make but ultimately I think I'd end up with the RO Skeleton.

5711, just not a fan of the way the Skeleton looks on the RO.

I love the dial and RG, but not fond of the leather strap. I have seen it before on a RG bracelet, but not sure if they did it aftermarket or what. I would love to have one with RG bracelet....

AP Skeleton FTW

Patek is BORING, a seiko design with super movement.

THE SKELETON AP WE CAN SEE THE MOVEMENT EVERYTIME.

Even if you really feel that way about Patek, you have an insensitive and irritating way of expressing it, unless of course you are intentionally trolling people who do like Patek….

In this case I would choose the 5711. Though I would also consider the 15202ST 40th Anniversary, as that is my favorite piece at the moment.

Would it be possible to take the RG bracelet of a regular RO model and put it on the Skeleton? This way one could buy both and switch the bracelets without going aftermarket.

I'm not sure, but someone on Instagram did something like that and it is a gorgeous looking piece!
