Great photos!
I was checking the comments on many blogs and am not surprised by all the haters. I think ppl take it personal. Which I get. It’s like me listening to any Metallica album after the black album (they all suck). But I will reserve my judgement for when I see these watches in person. But I have to say the platinum version with the jumping date is going to be incredible.
I was also trying to think whether these will increase or decrease secondary market prices for other sports pateks. On one hand, if so many ppl hate these watches, others should jump in price. Especially if Patek decides to discontinue making any of the sports models in steel. But the more likely scenario is that all the sports watches will continue to be highly coveted and sell well over retail on the secondary market. Bc let’s be real, it’s nearly impossible to get what you want from an AD.
Patek Cubitus - Real pictures from Munich
Moin aus München! Here are the first real pictures from the Patek Philippe Cubitus Line from Munich - courtesy of Watchlounge: What can I say? I am not dissapointed anymore! Yours, Adam ...
Looks good on the wrist!
I like the time only variants. Not sure I like the one with the big date.
Looks better in real pics for sure
But still basically an angular nautilus.. The big date ref would look much better if it was a center sweep seconds and the day indicator was at 6 (moonphase can go).. that way the watch looks more balanced in a square case
And yet, some of the legacy watch press that I'm reading...
...is kissing the behind of Stern because.........they have to.
Came here to say this.
It looks like the really bad Nautilus replicas or the half Royal Oak half Nautilus abomination.
First impression, the 3D pictures add substantially to its favour …
I’m actually shocked that the sides so closely resemble the Nautilus, I assumed they’d be squared off. It’s incredibly odd that PP has canceled the steel Nautilus only to replace it with, what can now be said without reservation, a square version. It’s no...
I’m pleased they aren’t Quartz.
They have a Santos vibe to them. I like them. I think they will sell very well.
Big fan of the big date.
I love the baguette diamond instead of the normal brilliant cut, that was not in the magazine ad.
+1
I can’t believe how lazy, unambitious and uninspired this effort is. Phasing out steel Nautilus models and bringing them back with a square case and a more than 30% price increase is just madness.
This is what nepotism brings...
...and who is going to tell the boss that it's not up to par?
ugly... and square watches never sell well
this is a strange move. Maybe if you buy one, you can move up in the waitlist for other models
It's simply OK to my eyes.
I much prefer the Nautilus. Thanks for the pictures. Cheers, Filip
thanks for sharing - definitely much better than the fortune ad
but I'd rather have the original nautilus or even the slightly bigger 5811. Not really sure why they did that?
I've read that this lines is supposed to be not for the rich ones only
It's for the Ultra wealthy 🤑🤑🤑🤑🤑 Chrono and perpetual will come in the future, that's for sure
Great photos!

Hahaha, your Metallica reference made me
smile. I feel the same way about R.E.M. after Automatic for the People. (And, more secretly, about Springsteen after Born in the U.S.A.) Cheers Marc
Its Patek. Everything they do will generate a buzz
A Bell&Ross patek. Why Stern? Why? Werent you supposed to reduce nautilus production? How is coming up with this help?
Its interesting. No matter what they come up with
There will always be a group that loves it and there will always be justification for whatever they do. No matter how outrageous and nonsensical.
I never said I love these new watches.
What I will say is that oftentimes when you see something live it’s different that the photos. So I’m reserving judgement until then. I love many brands. But I do t necessarily love every product they put out there. That would be silly. One can pick and c...
As usual I'm in the minority...
...and thus I like it much more than the Nautilus. I would definitely wear the green one but I don't like the TT and the calendar.
After seeing more photos, I am
getting more accustomed to the square case and this line is growing on me.
It certainly looks better on the wrist
Especially the base steel model.. the platinum still looks rather unbalanced to me. And it still bothers me that the whole line is so nautilus 😅
It's too big. The old Gondolo would suffice. My opinion. 😊
Perhaps a case size 38 39mm would have been better. But I still have to see it in person. Have a good weekend. Everyone. Geross.
Just adding my 2 cents. I am happy for those who will stand in line to pay over retail for any of them but 45 mm case size? Why? I thought
the sentiment was heading to somewhat smaller watches 38-40 mm which we of the small wrist population appreciate. At some point one questions the value proposition when PP wants so much money for watches because they have the PP moniker, and of course get...
Wait--it's not quartz?
I don't know where I got that idea--I could have sworn I read it here--but anyway... the one with big date is a double down dog. It will probably be the most sought after. The others are --shrug--what's the point of this watch? I thought its reason to exi...
An ill designed watch
Looks like the design has been cloned from Cartier Santos ; Bulgari Octo Finissimo ;Gerald Charles and Nautilus and the result is zero-originality and lack of cohesion… Yet the watch will sell as die-hard collectors will fawn over this.
Late to the club…
I don't think the platinum version looks that bad. But I also have my own (very special) taste. 😎 And before I make my final judgment, I would like to try the watch on my wrist. Nevertheless, I have to say that there are a few features that bother me at l...
