Thanks everyone. I'm really enjoying both of them, already having difficulty deciding which one to wear today.

WOW! Awesome Martin to have found a sealed 5980

I also like the 5711 white dial as it wears sporty.

Great additions to an already amazing collection!

HUGE CONGRATS my friend and they both look great on your wrist

Congratulations Martin! Beautiful pics as always It was your pics that sent me over the edge to purchase my blue dial 5711 and you may have inspired me again now with the 5980 pics...

Would love to see more pics of the white dial 5711 if you get a chance

Huge congrats awesome catch, have yet to warm up to white dial Nauts, well my favorite 5726 is the white dial but the ones which come also in blue have my preference, but I love blue, not only my 5712 but most of my clothes are blue, just my favorite color, anyways that's very cool Martin

Very nice!
Funny dealer though
Hope his sense of color was as poor as his sense of pricing.... In your favor!

Absolutely love the 5980 blue. (and the 5711 white is nothing bad either)!

Big congrats.
