Dear Emmanuel, thanks for your reply. I hope you get to see the new models. Not because I think they will change your view about Nautilus

watches. Rather, because from a strictly academic standpoint I think you will appreciate how the anniversary models differ from the prior models. Glad you enjoyed the interview. Best, Patekova

Part 2 - This time it’s all about the watches. A few weeks ago having only seen images of the three 50th anniversary Nautilus watches I initiated a thread

that included my initial impressions of the watches. I also expressed my surprise that the watches were part of the Watches and Wonders novelties and wondered why they did not have an exclusive release at a different time of the year, eg the Fall. Having ...

I prefer a bracelet on a sport watch, but I'd take either...

Thanks for your reply. I don’t own a Nautilus with the newer bracelet so can’t comment on that. I do find the older bracelet to be extremely comfortable on my wrist.

good follow-up post ! I have seen all 4 LE at W&W and everyone of them is great. I agree with you that the 5810G-001 could be a sleeper that could become HUGE !

Thanks Gordon for your reply. Seems like each of the wristwatches has special characteristics that make it a bit different

from the other two. Will be interesting to see with the passage of time how each version comes to be regarded by the Patek community after the initial frenzy dies down. Also, hopefully Thierry won’t use the 240 movement in future Nautilus versions, which ...
