Thanks a lot for the comment. I dont really like the dial on the 5990 and thinks it looks dull and Way to crowded.

Have been torn between the grey and blue dial 5980, but the Grey looks classy with the black date-wheel. I will have to wait to get a 5711 to ad the blue ;-)

All lights are green !

IMO, this is one of their nicest looking models. Just ensure that date doesn't stick. Looks a tiny bit off on pic but maybe it's just the pic angle. Check this function and ensure the date is properly aligned in the date window center..

Great piece as your first Patek. I have the blue dial and love it. Good luck!

AK797 · 15 November 2015, 06:40 AM

If you are going for a blue 5711 then this is perfect, love the date surround!

Racerdj · 15 November 2015, 06:47 AM

Great find! Looks great and enjoy it if you go ahead and purchase it.

rolex_addict · 15 November 2015, 07:52 AM

Try to have a look at a 5712, you might change ur mind

Didnt realise that the 5980's have black date wheel. Very nice 👍🏽

texex91 · 15 November 2015, 09:17 AM

Looks like it's out of warranty, so while you state 'unworn' it's not guaranteed.

However, 5980 is a great Patek and I'd grab it if you can.

sechsgang · 15 November 2015, 10:51 AM

Looks as legit as they can, even down to the tool.

zama · 15 November 2015, 01:55 PM

Looks great

Passionata · 15 November 2015, 07:39 PM

Looks nice, please consider a service within 2-3yrs and also the fact it s out of warranty as others stated ,the price must reflect that.

Abdullasaif · 15 November 2015, 08:06 PM

Doesn't look used but i prefer the 5990 now

subtona · 15 November 2015, 10:51 PM

Looks great and it is my favorite 5980 and one of my favorite watches.

Solicitor · 16 November 2015, 01:21 AM

If its Nautilus, its got to either be a 5711 or 5712 for me. (but I lean more on the 5711)
