A quick shot of the Patek Philippe Nautilus 5980A.
Belong ing to a good friend ( you know who you are ). For me, THE Nautilus to have. now the question is Blue or black? Best, Nicolas ...
Hi Nicolas, To me, blue dial with 5980 is more ...
classic and iconic, whereas the charcoal (not black to me) is more powerful 💪 ! If I had to choose, blue please.
I remember in 2015-2016 being in 1-2 ADs that actually had almost the entire range of Nautilus available for purchase.
At that time, I had the chance to compare the 5980 to it’s thinner siblings 5711-12. The 5980 definitely feels more like a sports watch. You know it’s there. I would choose the blue for me! The 5711p (non anniversary) would be my pick of the entire range....
Black
Greetings, Nice shots. I had a 5980 blue in the past. Awesome piece. Ideal combo: 3700 + 5980 Black! Best
Blue
I regret not getting one, it was still available at an AD in 2018. Went for a 5990 instead.
Wow, outstanding captures!
A close call for me, but likely the blue would take top spot between those two colors. But I think the white dial might take first prize. They're all good. M4
I am never sure about gray vs blue. Sunlight changes the color.
Is this blue or black/gray. ...
I finally know how to tell the difference between the Blue and black dial 5980.
The sun can play tricks. The blue dial 5980 has a white date disc with black numbers. The black dial 5980 has black date wheel with white text. Easy.
It’s blue/grey
Am for blue dial as it can be radiant differently depending on light conditions. One of the Best Patek sports watch which has been enjoying 13th Anniversary with me. Best regards ! Gautam ...
Bleu of course...
For black actually prefer 5990... White 5980 is top cool as well... ...
The only Nautilus I even came close to owning.
But couldn’t pull the trigger. Yes another unwise decision for my wallet but my collecting morals intact. I do like it the most out of all of them. But went for the 5960p instead. Great shot. Oh blue for me. M.
