Ref. 5990/1A-001
Nautilus
A rare and attractive stainless steel dual-time flyback chronograph wristwatch with date, bracelet, setting pin, Certificate of Origin and presentation box
Full-Cataloguing
Powered by the cal. CH 28-520, it ingeniously integrates the dual-time functionality of the Aquanaut Travel Time ref. 5164/A with an automatic flyback chronograph. The case design mirrors the lines of the ref. 5980/A, with seamlessly integrated dual time zone pushers on the “ear” sides, providing an uncluttered view that complements the Nautilus’ iconic silhouette.
This particular example has the subtly elegant gray dial that was discontinued in 2022, superseded by a blue dial iteration. Arguably Patek Philippe’s most practical and sporty model to date, this fresh-to-the-market, well-preserved Nautilus Travel Time Chronograph from circa 2015 is accompanied by its Certificate of Origin and presentation box. A superbly maintained example of one of Patek Philippe's most revered contemporary references, it would crown any discerning collection.
