  • Catalogue Essay

    The Patek Philippe Nautilus was first conceived by the legendary Gerald Genta in 1976. It is safe to say that the Nautilus has forever changed the design language of luxury sports watches and has truly become an embodiment of casual elegance.

    With the launch of the ref. 5711/1R at Baselworld in 2015, demand for the Nautilus further skyrocketed. The reference was the first Nautilus cased in pink gold with an integrated bracelet. Further complimented by a rich “chocolate” brown dial, which was also newly conceived at the time, the pairing quickly became regarded as one of the best produced by Patek Philippe, with models from the Aquanaut to the Grand Complication reference 6002 receiving this highly attractive colour combination.

    Recently discontinued by the manufacturer, the ref. 5711/1R has yet to have a successor reference made. The present example is fresh-to-the-market and to the best of our knowledge, it is the 19th pink gold example known. Offered in very good condition, this exquisite Nautilus is further accompanied by all its original accessories.

  • Artist Biography

    Patek Philippe

    Swiss • 1839

    Since its founding in 1839, this famous Geneva-based firm has been surprising its clientele with superbly crafted timepieces fitted with watchmaking's most prestigious complications. 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.
