Hello Guys!

I'm glad to say that I have purchased my first Patek Philippe and I am more than pleased. If you look at my dial, it is clear that it is different to the regular 5711/1A, as it is more grey and the ribbing pattern is different. With further research, I have found out that my 5711's reference is the 5711/1A-001, instead of the conventional blue dialed 5711/1A-010. The watch was made in 2009 and still bears the Geneva Hallmark. What are your thoughts? Which dial do you guys like better!?

Best,

It's clear that the dial is much more grey than the regular 5711/1A. I personally prefer this dial much more than the regular 5711/1A. It's very apparent that the ribbing is extremely different on this dial as it is on the regular 5711/1A.

The regular 5711/1A. The dial pattern is clearly very different


About the Patek Philippe Nautilus Ref. 5711

The Patek Philippe reference 5711/1A-011, part of the Complications collection, is distinguished by its white dial, offering a different aesthetic compared to other dial variations within the 5711 series. This particular configuration provides a clean and legible presentation, appealing to collectors who prefer a more understated yet refined look. It represents a specific iteration of a well-known Patek Philippe model, recognized for its integrated design.

The watch features a 40mm stainless steel case, housing the self-winding Caliber 26-330 SC movement. This movement provides a power reserve of 45 hours. The case is fitted with a sapphire crystal, contributing to its water resistance of 120 meters. The fixed bezel and integrated bracelet are characteristic elements of its construction.

This reference appeals to collectors interested in the evolution of Patek Philippe's offerings, particularly those seeking specific dial colors within established model lines. Its production run from 2019 to 2021 marks it as a relatively recent, yet now discontinued, variant. The watch's specifications align with Patek Philippe's standards for mechanical timepieces.

Recently another PuristS made a post regarding the same style on his dial. Would be great if we could find out the answer regarding the different patterns on the 5711s. Perhaps the difference stems from the year of production ? FYI, the other post www.watchprosite.com

Surely not on a new watch. If it is, it will leave me cold. Could it really be another boo boo by Patek or is it a reflection of a smudge from the crystal? The dial is beautiful though.

The "Thin liner" dial was used only on a small number of Patek 5711J and 5711G leather strap models at around 2007 for just a short period of time, which is before 2009 when Patek stopped using the Geneva Seal stamp. And somehow, a small number of these dials ended up on the blue stainless steel 5711-001, however most of the 5711 you see, regardless of 001 or 010 use only the standard dial pattern.
