  • Catalogue Essay

    Reference 5711 was launched in 2006 alongside the ref. 5712 and 5980 to commemorate the 30th anniversary of the Nautilus. Inspired by the original reference 3700 Jumbo Nautilus, the present reference 5711 features sweep center seconds, a larger case with a sapphire case back enabling the wearer to admire the movement at work. With the modern update and classic sporty look, the present watch is one of the most sought after modern-day timepieces across the world. During its production, an evolution of the movement can be detailed in three series:

    First series (2006-2007): Fitted with calibre 315

    Second series (2007-2019): Fitted with calibre 324 SC with Geneva Seal (pre-2010), and later with Patek Philippe seal (post-2010)

    Third series (2019-2021): Fitted with calibre 26-330 SC with hack feature

    With an astonishing level of demand and shortage of supplies, the firm announced the discontinuation of the 5711/1A-010 with a deep gradient blue dial in 2021, setting the stage to the final iteration of the olive green edition with 5711/1A-014 that has now deemed an unicorn-like status that was further discontinued in 2022. Fresh-to-the-market, the present ref. 5711 is part of the second series with the new PP seal and preserved in an absolutely stunning barely worn condition. Furthermore, it is accompanied by the Patek Philippe Certificate of Origin and all its original accessories.

Traditional and conservative designs are found across Patek Philippe's watches made throughout their history — the utmost in understated elegance.

    Well-known for the Graves Supercomplication — a highly complicated pocket watch that was the world’s most complicated watch for 50 years — this family-owned brand has earned a reputation of excellence around the world. Patek's complicated vintage watches hold the highest number of world records for results achieved at auction compared with any other brand. For collectors, key models include the reference 1518, the world's first serially produced perpetual calendar chronograph, and its successor, the reference 2499. Other famous models include perpetual calendars such as the ref. 1526, ref. 3448 and 3450, chronographs such as the reference 130, 530 and 1463, as well as reference 1436 and 1563 split seconds chronographs. Patek is also well-known for their classically styled, time-only "Calatrava" dress watches, and the "Nautilus," an iconic luxury sports watch first introduced in 1976 as the reference 3700 that is still in production today.
