The Patek Philippe 5712 is often seen as the more refined brother to the 5711. With its date subdial, power reserve and moonphase, it offers traditional horological complications encased within a very contemporary design.
THE NAUTILUS
Although it's perhaps the single hardest watch to get at retail nowadays, Patek Philippe's Nautilus came as a surprise to the industry when it initially launched. Alongside the more aggressive and angular Royal Oak from Audemars Piguet, the Nautilus has the illustrious title of being a watch that arguably saved the Swiss watch industry from its darkest times.
In the 1970s, the industry was being outwitted by Japanese quartz watch manufacturers, who produced watches which were not only far more accurate, but also vastly cheaper than their Swiss counterparts. To stymie this decline, watchmakers looked to radically change the nature of the industry. The Royal Oak and Nautilus were infamous for costing over 10 times more than contemporary steel watches, and yet it took a few years for the first references to actually sell out.
Today, the Nautilus is iconic in every sense of the word. While the watch has become immensely popular as a result of pop culture, it still holds its own as piece of horological history.
This Patek Philippe is in near-mint condition, with only very slight marks noticeable on the polished section of the bezel. Otherwise, the case is in mint condition. The leather strap is worn but is in good condition.
Comes with inner and outer box set, hang tag, folder, booklets, instructions, manual and original guarantee paper. This watch does not come with the setting pin.
PATEK PHILIPPE
To many, Patek Philippe is the epitome of the high-end watchmaker. Throughout its nearly two centuries' of existence, it has weathered everything from the World Wars to the Quartz Crisis of the 1980s. Even today, it's widely acknowledged to be amongst the most successful and prestigious watchmakers, with its creations gracing wrists of everyone from bankers and politicians to rappers and actors.
