I do not understand this...
...you cannot just take an already iconic watch design and change the case shape and call it a day. The good news for purchasers? It's so ugly that they won't sell very many, and they may rise in value in the decades to come based upon their rarity alone. If I owned Patek stock, this would be a 'Sell' moment for me.
Patek Cubitus from Reddit
From a thread on Reddit, these are supposed to be the new watches: “Three Cubitus models as of now: 5821/1AR: A blue dial with two-tone rose gold and stainless steel, on a bracelet (this watch) 5821/1A-001, stainless steel with the same shade of green Dia...
If the Nautilus would not be there, I would find it interesting! But Nautilus IS there vor almost 50 years!
What is the augmentation of BORING? Is a watchmaker like PP, with an outstanding renomee not capable of something more innovative? I wait for the „CIRCULARIS“ 🤦🏻♂️ Additionally, the „ears“ do not work with this case. 🙈 I will wear my Ebel 1911 Carré even...
OMG. I had this watch for a while.
I have never seen anyone else wear it. I really liked it. It’s beautiful.
I’m also very surprised by how similar
to Nautilus it seems to be. But I think we really should wait for more and better than leaks.
Observation of blue dial seconds hand
1) it is extremely thin 2) it is pointing exactly to 7 seconds
I don't think these watches are ugly
But first Nautilus is better, by far. And second, that's more laziness I can withstand.

42k€ for the green
So much for being affordable… The overseas at 28k seems like a steal compare to this, not to mention the base Royal Oak which is also sub-30.
??
Sorry, how is the new square Nautilus line, entry level at 40K - 90K? Why was this line needed then? It has the bracelet and dial of the Nautilus. It has the official pricing of the Nautilus more or less. So? What happened? Why not expand on the Nautilus ...
Is the future of Patek merely an echo of past glory?
I wonder whether they lack imaginative designers or their designers were overruled. There are brands with much less reputation and resources who are producing more impressive designs today.
45 mm diameter!
Waaaay too big for me. I was just starting to rejoice that 38 mm started to come back in fashion.
I rather like the simple steel only one!
I concur with the poster, I like the 5821/1A variant! The green dial variant looks good in my eyes. Don't like the complex one though. Basically it looks like a modern version of the Nautilus in some ways. I agree that I like the 5712 more than this one t...
There is a nice - actally nicer - alternative! 🤩
For a fraction of the price, that is… ...
I liked the middle one
But the date models? Wow, they're simply terrible. I also read 45mm? Can Patek ever get proportions right nowadays? They keep releasing huge watches and discontinuing their best references. Not a fan of the direction of the brand.

I just copy and paste what I’ve been writing on all the watch blogs I’m on 😎.
I was checking the comments on many blogs and am not surprised by all the haters. I think ppl take it personal. Which I get. It’s like me listening to any Metallica album after the black album (they all suck). But I will reserve my judgement for when I se...
Stopped going to Boutiques...
its been 15, 16 years.....no reason for me to put up with the drama or play their games. I can get whatever I want without their help.
Agreed. Secondary market is where I would be getting any Patek now.
Especially since I am getting old and may start thinking about buying (neo) vintage.
