  • Catalogue Essay

    One of the most talked-about timepieces of the past decade, the Patek Philippe Nautilus ref. 5711 was first introduced in 2006. While the Nautilus lineage began in the 1970s with the iconic ref. 3700, it was the ref. 5711 that cemented its status as an icon, gaining global recognition and exponential demand.

    With its classic 40mm stainless steel case and integrated bracelet, the ref. 5711 perpetuates the heritage of the original Gérald Genta design, paired with the popular grayish-blue horizontally ribbed dial. After being discontinued in 2021 and briefly succeeded by a final green dial edition and the talk of the town Tiffany & Co. iteration, the ref. 5711 has made way for the new ref. 5811/1G-001 in white gold with a slightly enlarged case and extendable clasp.

    Fresh-to-the-market, this circa 2017 example is offered in excellent condition with barely any signs of wear. Complete with its full set of accessories, it represents a rare opportunity to acquire one of Patek Philippe's most revered contemporary models.

    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.

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.
