I have 5960/1A on a black carbon pattern strap
with red stitching and 5960P-016 (black) on a black carbon pattern strap with yellow stitching. I bought also 5905P, black dial, but I like 5960 much more. Just the pushers of 5905 are perhaps nicer.
But this is really just a matter of taste. I have a serious love affair with both of my 5960. I feel, by the way, just same about the blue dial. I think that's more like a fashion statement and will not take the time as well as the black dial.
Best, Kari
Yes, I went for the 3800 dual tone because...
Because I love it !!! The contrast between the mate steel and the shiny gold, how it makes the case so unique and full of details, this incredible dial we know on many Nautilus but with gold indexes it is even more mesmerising, the weight, the "1980's adu...
Well, the 5980 in steel and rose gold was unveiled in 2013
Now, the trend it to use a little more yellow gold and use 2-tone models (like the 5550P in 2011 and the 5496P this year). Maybe something on the basis of the 5711 in the future? We'll see.
It is a very "shy" come-back but it is visible indeed
Like in outfits and clothes sector, the trends are made by the main actors whenever they want. If they decide to stop a trend and start another one, they do it quite easily. Now, do they want this in the watchmaking field? I think they want to widen the o...
What else one would need that a watch the owner loves.
These two-tone watches are interesting: they used to be a hit between steel and gold models and it looks like they are slowly coming back. I think with Patek nobody should focus on current fashion. These watches are having such a long life span that durin...
Very true.
As people look for big cases now, I look for any size, as soon as i like it. My 5905p is a 42mm and looks thick but small. Smaller than many 40mm ie. On pictures I loved it but thought it wasn\'t for me, until I tried it on my wrist... 5905p is really a g...
I had a long fight between blacks; 5960P vs. 5905P.
The winner with a short margin was 5960P. Why: - 12 hours counter vs. 60 minutes - power reserve indicator - a friction slimmer - the case back is not the "press-on" -type - for my wrist better size - most probably rarer Both are great watches. Best, Kari...
I love both two
But would personally not compare these two because the 5960 I love is the white dial on leather strap, that makes it very unique, and the 5905p in black dial. Therefore they are 2 very different watches in these combos. The 5960/1a is a more sportier watc...

In Lapland when asking a reindeer owner
how many reindeer you have, the reply is "my reindeer can pass the tree from both sides". So it can be 2 or 200 - or more. I have several Patek and if I would wear them equally, one watch would not get too many weeks of writ time annually. But the good ne...
Haha I love this!!!
Passion is what makes us feel alive! But 52 PPs, I mean, how in hell don\'t you make a picture of all of these in a unique shot? How many other pieces from other brands... I don\'t even ask ;-) But I must say : bravo !
No, no, no!
I did not say 52. I said "not many weeks annually". It could mean anything between 13 and 52. But that's not important. I have showed here probably most of the watches but not all. And if I do not show some of the watches, there's a reason. No, they are n...
I truly agree
And it is not at all about value but really about love and beauty (and rarity sometimes!). And it is so great to see all of us, patek enthusiasts, having fun with their watches, whatever they are, and whatever they price. Do you own any vintage pieces? Th...
Yes, I have
less than 10 vintage pieces. There are two newly acquired very dear watches: Nautilus 3700-001 & 3700-011. Both absolutely mint, with Certificates, all papers and cork boxes. Simply great watches! Best, Kari
And we thank you very much for that Kari
There are many models we don't see much and this is of great help (for future owners) and great pleasure for forumners to be able to see them. Cheers, Mark
Thanks Mark. I wear
quite a lot watches like Aquanaut 5167 and Nautilus 5711 - especially when warm sea or swimming pool is around. But these watches are stars of many watch forums every day. Watches like 5975P, 5550P, 5100P, etc. are much rarer and thus, probably more inter...
Indeed there is still a portion of the references that are rare
and it is a particular joy to see here.
Fantastic shot
And you're right: I noticed as well that this reference looks smaller than it says on paper.
You make my day!
It's great when somebody finds a watch he/she loves so much. I have also some pieces which make me very happy every time I wear them. Best, Kari
I mentioned in another post. But as an example:
5960A, 5134P, 5550P, 5070P... Best, Kari
Congratulations on your new acquisition!
It does look good on your wrist. Wear it in good health.
Very nice & i am sure a joy to wear.
Really congratulate you. That is a very fine Nautlus. Many thanks for sharing your joy. Cheers. Geross.
Wonderful catch
I think I saw it with several other models in the shop I visited earlier this week Maybe it is just a coincidence. It look fantastic,very good condition and doesn't look at of age at all but on the contrary very unique en original compared to today's offe...
I'm sure we both visited the Marbeuf store ;-)
And, as well as the 5905p, I entered the store thinking I will buy another piece (in this particular case I wanted a 3800 but I was interested by the other ones they had in stock) and I fell in love with this one!
Indeed!
I saw the 3800 too. And I think that I would have made the same choice as you did, just because it is more a little more original and a little more exciting on the moment. I had a look at the 3970P in the same window and the 5975G I like a lot. A lot of t...
