Catalogue Essay
- Reference 5711 was launched in 2006 to commemorate the 30th anniversary of the original Nautilus. Perpetuating the heritage of the original Gérald Genta design, the 5711 differs only slightly from the original, and features a larger case measuring a case width of 42.5mm (40mm diameter) paired with its iconic greyish blue ribbed dial and integrated bracelet.

- It further boasts a sapphire case back enabling the wearer to admire the in-house caliber 324 SC at work, and revealing the 21k gold rotor with Côtes de Genève which runs more efficiently due to its heavier gold properties. A Patek Philippe seal is found on the golden rotor, matching the post-2010 production period of the second series of the movement.

- When the 5711 was discontinued in 2021 after its 15-year production run (and briefly succeeded by a final green dial edition and the talk-of-the-town Tiffany & Co. iteration), the level of demand for the watch soared exponentially, cementing the 5711 as one of the most sought-after and recognizable modern timepieces ever created by Patek Philippe.

- Coincidentally featuring a movement number starting with 5’711’XXX, and one of approximately 60 examples of reference 5711/1A-010 to appear on the auction market to date, the present ref. 5711 is preserved in an excellent condition, and accompanied by the Patek Philippe Certificate of Origin and all its original accessories.
