  • Catalogue Essay

    Released in 2006 together with its other important milestone contemporary Nautilus models such as the ref. 5711, 5980 and 5712, the ref. 5800 marked the return of the mid-sized Nautilus model replacing its previous ref. 3800. Produced only in stainless steel and for only a minimal year, the ref. 5800 is a rare bird. Retaining its classic aesthetic of a monobloc case with an integrated sapphire caseback, the reference is a transitional example combining elements of the past and present.

    The 38mm diameter case is slightly larger than the ref. 3800 which featured a 37.5mm diameter case. Keeping its signature blued ribbed dial, the movement underneath is powered by the firm’s in-house cal. 330 SC featuring a straight-line lever escapement, shock absorber mechanism, a flat balance spring with self-compensating and a monometallic balance and the firm’s classic gold rotor, ensuring robustness and quality timekeeping.

    Offered in excellent overall condition and complete with its original Certificate of Origin from 2009, the present example boasts a lengthy bracelet measuring 200mm in length. A perfect chance for lover’s of the Nautilus to acquire one of the rarest stainless steel Nautilus models ever produced.

  • 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.
