  • Catalogue Essay

    Introduced in 2006 to mark the 30th Anniversary of the Nautilus, the ref. 5711 has now been removed entirely from the catalogue and Patek Philippe is unapologetically keeping the market in suspense with the mystery of its unknown successor.

    Considered by purists as the quintessential luxury sports watch, the ref. 5711 has become an indispensable icon on its own. Originally encased in stainless steel with its classic blue ribbed dial, the white dial iteration was only born 6 years later, in 2012. Exuding an irresistible charm with a completely different aesthetic to its blue sibling, the white ribbed dial, with blackened white gold luminous-filled indexes and hands, are a revolutionary. Drawing from the preceding ref. 3700 Jumbo, the present ref. 5711 features center seconds.

    Sleek and chic, the refreshing white striped dial is the most attention-grabbing feature on the present example. With the discontinuation of the reference and its continuously rising demand, this opportunity to secure a rare white dial 5711 is not to be missed.

  • 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.
