Patek Philippe Nautilus 5711

The Patek Philippe Nautilus 5711/1A-010 is arguably the most coveted luxury sports watch ever created. Designed by the legendary Gérald Genta and introduced in 1976, its octagonal porthole-inspired case and horizontally embossed blue dial have become hallmarks of haute horlogerie.

Movement

The calibre 26-330 S C is an ultra-thin self-winding movement boasting a 45-hour power reserve, with the characteristic Patek Philippe finishing: Côtes de Genève stripes, chamfered and polished bridges, and perlage on the mainplate.
