Catalogue Essay
- The Nautilus is perhaps the most recognisable sports model, even among non-watch enthusiasts. In 2014, Patek Philippe released the ref. 5990 featuring the same dual time complication as the Aquanaut Travel Time, but now combined with the in-house, automatic flyback chronograph caliber 28-250. Like other Nautilus chronographs such as the ref. 5980, the present reference incorporates unobtrusive chronograph pushers that helped maintain the iconic design of the original reference 3700 “Jumbo” Nautilus first released in 1976.
- Another highly praised detail was the placement of the buttons used to change the local time, cleverly disguised in the left “flap” of the Nautilus case, allowing for minimal modification to the eternal Genta design while keeping the symmetry of the case.
- Patek Philippe has long offered timepieces that are cherished both for their form and function, and the Nautilus collection is a powerhouse in the world of watch collecting. Fresh-to-the-market, the present ref. 5990/1A-001 is offered in excellent overall condition with its original accessories.
