Another very valuable and educational post
These are not watches people know that well in terms of details.
I wouldn't have thought either that the watches would have looked as different from the 2nd picture.
I imagine you need the real experience to fully appreciate their differences.
You're a very talented watch seeker Kari 
Thank you for sharing with us.
Cheers, Mark
Nautilus will be 40 years. Let us look at the original
First of all, the Guru of all Nautilus 3700 Gurus is Marco a.k.a mstanga. When I bought my second 3700, I called to Marco and got really valuable advice. So if you want to get more detailed information about Nautilus 3700, check Marco\s outstanding posts....
I can say...
...in 10 days you killed me twice. great informative post, and...wow...what a stunning Nautilus collection Sir.! so, voices from my side say: a Perpetual Calendar Nautilus and/or a "new 5711" without the seconds hand. what's your thoughts? Thanks, Kari Ch...
Chris, my thought have been changing back and forth...
My original guess was a perpetual with 240Q movement. But knowing that Patek plans in advance, I believe it will be the 50th Anniversary watch. This year I expect/hope a Nautilus with the same movement as 5960. Then I guess there will be a simple Nautilus...
Same movement as the 5960, mmmm
Knowing that Patek is most likely going to discontinue the 5960, one could imagine they reuse it for the Nautilus 40th but isn\'t that a kinda cheap approach to reuse an existing movement for such an important celebration watch, as the 40th Nautilus. A pl...
I know many things that would be special
but I doubt they are doing anything like that. But naturally, I can be as wrong as nobody else and thus, my guesses have no value whatsoever. Best, Kari
Looks like they come in pairs with you ;)
The Nautilus for me and in such cool boxes Cordially D
I never though it this way... coming in pairs.
I just crabbed every main Nautilus version which was made in steel and came with blue dial. But I love to wear them all! Best, Kari
Thanks a lot for your post Kari
you make me appreciate my 5712 a lot more Your passion for the nautilus is infectious! I'm also very keen to see what PP will offer for the 40th anniversary of the Nautilus Cheers Robin
Do you want to hear an honest comment?
Nowadays I think much more a certain MB I saw in Singapore than any anniversary Nautilus. Best, Kari
Just look at the movement for a while
then check the dial. After that you understand. Best Kari
Again a fantastic write up!
Love it to read (and see) the small differences between these iconic models. I\'ve never seen comparisons like this (with all watches at hand in one collection). Thanks for taking your time setting this up. Very entertaining!
PS those corky boxes are great!
I hope for the chosen few that the 40th anniversary will come in cork box again.
That would be wonderful.
But on the other hand, who is really using the the box. Best Kari
A very informative post. Big thank you for posting.
Get to appreciate my 5712a , knowing the characteristics of its noble predecesors. You are a blessed man Kari to have in your collection both original versions of the nautilus. Wish you many years for you to enjoy your splendid collection. Cheers to a ver...
Great post indeed Kari, thanks for it. This is one of these watches that I ....
....only came to fully appreciate once it was on my wrist (3700/001). And to all 3700 fans out there I can only recommend what you already wrote in your text: get the "Guide to PP Nautilus 3700" from our great friend Marco, it is extremely informative. Ch...
Another excellent Nautilus post
to increase knowledge in the community. I found it very informative. Thanks Kari!
I salute you...I will never use those metal calibers or gauges anywhere near my watches.
Interesting comparison and makes me want a blue 5711 now. Looks like PP forum is very lively recently with all the watches and cars, fun to "watch" ) Thanks for sharing. Rgds Raymond
Very interesting post dr.kol.....
and yes this it true it complements mstanga posts , now that you read it all you can (with certainty) tell that you know a thing or two about the Nautilus line! As a Patek enthusiast I truly salute you : Best regards Edward This message has been edi...
Thanks Edward
Indeed, I did not want to write something that Marco has said better earlier. Thus the different approach and I have a feeling that the readers like to see photos. Best, Kari
yes indeed....
The photos are excellent illustration. I personally appreciate The measurements of the thickness of each watch in both threads. They are impossible to find on the internet as somebody on the forum asked for them once and I tried to find them without succe...
A big problem is
that the informed measurements are not always accurate. When we speak about Patek, the thickness is always important as Patek is typically thinner than a corresponding watch of another brand. Best, Kari
A very entertaining post
I have to say, you have a lovely collection of watches. Good on you. All the best.
Hi Kari, thanks for an informative and fun post ! Now you have me again ...
thinking about Nautilus 40th anniversary version. There will be some sleepless nights ! :-( Cheers, Gordon

"Greed is good" (Wall Street)
comes into my mind if I see your Nautilus collection there! Thank you for the informative post. Best Moritz
Your English is much better than mine
but are you sure that you do not mix "greed" with "passion". I would be greedy, if I would try, as an example, buy all 3712 and speculate with their future prices. Best, Kari
Outstanding post
And I say that this as an outsider (must confess Nautilus has never held me in its thrall). The level of dedication and scholarship that went into this post is phenomenal. I sure it will become a reference for future collections Thank you
Thanks. The intention was not to go deep on the topic
but just to give some impressions. Best, Kari
40 years, but when?
Please excuse my ignorance, but by when exactly do we anticipate an announcement of the 40 year effort? Considering a 5711, but want to wait to be sure... Thanks,
If you can get 5711, get it!
It will not be easy to get the 40th anniversary pieces. Best, Kari
Are you asking about the anniversary watch/watches?
If I would know, I would not tell. And I will not even tell if I know or don't know. Best Kari
Normally the anniversary pieces appear around mid October.
I do not think Patek will organise fireworks to celebrate 40 years of Nautilus. Best, Kari
