Hi π all, Today in lunar new year calendar is η«ζ₯, the beginning of spring, and the first unplanned GTG of this year had
my good friend wearing his brand new 5712 for the first time during this auspicious day !
He was so happy with this piece on his wrist that he was all smiles. A couple days ago, he sized it but without wearing it, and later the same day found out that this watch was discontinued. Hence our GTG was so meaningful because he now possesses the most symmetrical asymmetrical steel Nautilus there is/was. Naturally I had to try it on my wrist as well, and simply did not want to return it to the owner. Green with envy is all that I can say !
On my wrist and I was all green with envy!

He wears it well and nicely showcases the unique beauty of its asymmetryππ½ππ½ππ½
Interestingly, despite the similarities, the asymmetry of the platinum Cubitus doesnβt strike me the same wayβ¦perhaps due to the date window.π€
The 5712 asymmetry is very interesting and has certain
symmetry to it if you draw a line from 1.5 o'clock to 7.5 o'clock ! The 5822 with date window has less symmetry to it IMO
Dear Gordon, very happy that your friend caught this classic PP just in time!
Wish your friend enjoy it often in good health. Your root beer looks v good on your wrist too π
Thanks Henry ! My friend was JIT for the 5712, and he had an aperol spritz while
I βdrankβ a root beer πΊ!
Congratulations to your friend!
He got a very special piece! Just like the Cubitus it received very mixed reviews when it was launched in 2006 and look at its popularity now! Another thing we can applaud Patek Philippe for: Their vision and long-term thinking. Enjoy your beautiful piece...
