Yeti, I don't think you will ever be satisfied and will continue on your journey which is exactly how it should be. Enjoy your journey and i'm looking forward to see where your quest takes you.
Sataisfied? Hard to say, perhaps content is the word I am hoping for. But the collection, althogh it hasn't changed hugely in value, will have reduced to so few pieces that it can not condense much further unless I got for one ultimate piece - but I need variety, there is no one watch for me!Prioritoes are set to change next year, this is one (or two) last hurrahs!

I don't think it exists! Not for me anyway, I'd rather have 5 x 20k watches than one 100k watch...
That reminds me of a story about two bulls in a field.One young bull and a much older bull. The younger bull suggests they they run down the hill and have their way with a couple of cows. The older bull turns and says, no, let's walk down and shag the lot.
It's surprising how tastes and priorities change over time and you can never say never.
I have the one down, and like it, 5712/1A.
I liked your 'grail' but felt it a little bulky and at odds with the design, for me anyhow. Lovely watch though and a great choice.
One final point, due to the value, worry as regards loss/scratch etc, I've ended up wearing this far more:
I wear the PP a lot less than perhaps I should, and if I'd known that then perhaps I would not have purchased in hindsight. Just a thought.

Yeti, if you've not found one yet, this has just been posted on Paneristi:

I know nothing of pricing, so don't know if it's a good deal or not.

I did notice that Spencer Matthews was wearing a Yeti PP on Made In Chelsea NYC the other day...
Oh, oh, hang on - Whilst someone else in my house, definitely not me, was watching MIC NYC... I notice Spencer and Yeti have the same taste in watches
They are definitely starting to grow on me...

I have to confess to not wearing my 5711 that often, been working away a bit and seem to gravitate towards my new SD4000 as a daily wear.
oh, and this thing about selling watches - do you really do that?
I only say that to the wife as part of the man maths for a new purchase, hence I now have 3 SD of which I only ever wear one and probably should sell the others.
Or maybe they will make a nice 18th present for the kids
