GOATmaster 0 Posted August 4, 2016 (edited) Just noticed these new gold 5980s with movement plates now, I can't imagine how much thicker they are now, making the case even thicker then the gen's than it was before. http://www.pf-818.com/-p-20150.html http://www.pf-818.com/-p-20149.html http://www.pf-818.com/-p-20148.html http://www.pf-818.com/-p-20147.html http://www.pf-818.com/-p-20146.html http://www.pf-818.com/-p-20145.html http://www.pf-818.com/-p-20144.html http://www.pf-818.com/-p-20143.html Edited August 4, 2016 by GOATmaster Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Phantomtech 4 Posted August 4, 2016 Interesting. They do look kinda thick... Will wait for the pros to chime in. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
_DC_ 218 Posted August 4, 2016 Weirdly it doesn't look any thicker than the current 5980 (which was already fairly thick)... not sure how they've pulled that off?!? DC Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
_DC_ 218 Posted August 4, 2016 What they really need to do instead of mucking about with movement decoration is bring out a blue dial steel version with correct dial colour, the greyish blue colour of the current version is the biggest disappointment about it!!

chase0224 0 Posted August 4, 2016 Man you guys are picky lol Id rather the factories try repping other nautilus references instead of focusing on the 5980. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gazzla 23 Posted August 4, 2016 That's thicker than a whale omelette. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Simurgh 0 Posted September 26, 2016 This is my grail watch but what always gets me is the faux chronograph. It would be nice if it could at least count minutes. Just my 0.02$ Sent from my KIW-L24 using Tapatalk Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

DC I agree. Got the steel 5980 with the blue dial and was disappointed in the "plastic" look the dial had. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
