Catalogue Essay
During its 15-year production run, the 5711 Nautilus became more than “just a watch,” building a reputation that surpassed the once niche community of watch collecting and extending an invitation out to the wider universe, drawing many more passionate and curious people into the world of watches.
Despite this all-encompassing success, many collectors are only now starting to familiarize themselves with the details of how the model evolved over its lifetime.
Among the earlier examples produced, a small number of these watches are adorned with the Poinçon de Genève, also known as the Geneva seal, making this example one of those transitional iterations before the brand started adorning their watches with the Patek Philippe seal.
Fresh-to-the-market and from the original owner, the present Patek Philippe Nautilus has been worn no more than a handful of times; further, it’s complete with its full set of accessories.
