Thanks so much!!!! Yes I have the 116718 as well as some gold daytonas and others.....I don't have a group photo yet as half the pieces are in Canada and half are in the USA.....maybe one day they will unite :)

Such a well taken point

I was at tourneau last week looking at the Nautilus (unfortunately they did not have the 5711r) It is such a nice watch

Might cost you a few thousand but you are freeing up alot of funds that you could use else were. Just a thought, but your RG collection really is outstanding.

Thats a really good idea!

For me the issue is that I love and use the chronograph complication.

I almost pulled the trigger on the 5980r on bracelet and went with the 26470 on bracelet instead. I find Pateks wear small and I have this fascination with larger watches.

I thing the 5980r is just so beautiful though.

5980r is my favorite PP, by far

Me too, just a lovely piece....however I find it small for my tastes hence why I have gravitated towards the AP chronographs.

Got it. In that case stay away from the 5711/1r.

Who cares about redundancy. Get what makes you happy

Well whenever they do, don't forget to take a group shot.. That will be one crazy group shot!'

Agreed and thanks! No disrespect to the Pateks, they are truly stunning.
