A couple of car shots that nicely bring out the beauty of 5740G.
I hope you don’t mind me posting again photos of this watch. Best, Volker
Cheers, Raymond.
I surely don’t but that doesn’t matter at all with our hobby. I also love this one which is only a fraction of the price of the PP and not very popular. 😎
It's a wonderful watch; a real dream of mine.
The only thing I do not like is the material. Steel, titanium or even platinum would have costed me a lot. Now I'm admiring from a safe distance.
Best, Kari
No doubt about titanium, also because it would have been a one-off ;-) [nt]

It is always great to own an unique Patek
At least I enjoy it 😉.
Howevet, titanium is light and very scratch resistant. Thus, it would be a perfect material gor ’I-wear-it-every-day-watch’.

Sorry, Kari, but why that? The P version of the Nautilus is extremely uncomfortable to wear due to the heavy weight and the „sharp“ edges of the bracelet. Titanium is just boring (for my eyes). The G is perfect regarding weight and look imho. [nt]

I get your point, Kari.
Steel surely never was an option for Patek. So Pt, yes. WG has the perfect weight IMO but looks a bit yellowish.
My point is that WG turns towards more yellow with time
and I do not like when the case start to look "dirty".
best, Kari
Would never get tired of seeing the 5740, thanks again for these live shots Volker! [nt]

Interesting data. The 5980R at 253 grams is quite amazing... I think the 5131P is at about 249gr. [nt]

Ah, the Alpina B12 version of the 850.
The good old nineties. Not long and it will be a real”Oldtimer”. Es lebe der Sauger!!’
