Thus, from its humble beginning as a simple “three hander” with date, the Nautilus line has slowly evolved and expanded.
Reference 5990 is one of the results of such a blooming. First released in stainless steel in 2014, the model competes with perpetual calendar reference 5740 for the sceptre of “most complicated” Nautilus, as it features a chronograph and travel/dual time complication - with dedicated night/day indications for “home” and “local” time. It is a testament to Patek Philippe’s excellence in design and technical flair: the fact that two complications requiring external pushers (as opposed to calendar complications, which do not require a “button” to operate) were chosen to be fitted into a Nautilus case - which due to its specific shape is very difficult to modify - is more than surprising. In this instance, the chronograph pushers are subtly fitted into the left side of the case, with remarkably little aesthetic “white noise”.
The pink gold version, released this year, is without a doubt one of the most sought-after models currently on the market, virtually impossible to acquire at retailers. A glance is however sufficient to understand why: the piece is an absolute masterpiece of design; the massive pink gold case finds a somewhat more lighthearted balance in the superb metallic blue dial. Hardly ever a full pink gold watch has been so versatile, equally fitting for a day on a yacht in the bay of St. Tropez as well as for a power lunch at a London private club.
The present timepiece is offered in absolutely mint condition and complete of all its original accessories.
