  • Catalogue Essay

    The present reference 5712 is cased in 18K white gold and features a power reserve indicator, moon phases and date. It was the most complicated Nautilus model on offer at the time of its introduction in 2006, providing a more sophisticated option to its time and date only counterparts.

    The white gold case with a seal grey dial comes to life in the details. With a mix of brushed, embossed, and smooth dial finishes, the coolness of the grey of the dial balances seamlessly with the warmth and sumptuousness of the case. Furthermore, adding a touch of depth to the dial, some small details have been highlighted in red such as the four last dots of the power reserve and the first day of the calendar.

    The present example from circa 2009 is presented in excellent overall condition and accompanied with the original Certificate of Origin. It is a magnificent opportunity for collectors to acquire a beautiful example of this sought-after model.

    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.
