I have the 5711 but I sometimes dream of exchanging it for the 3700. The mother.
What a gorgeous picture my friend. šmine doesnāt get much wrist time any longer but perhaps I should give it a try again.
I didnāt see a Cubitus yet but have a friend who has several 5711 and bought a couple of Cubitus. He is very pleased with it and wears them a lot. Itās usually more interesting to hear what owners say about a watch. To him itās just a different watch just as the Aquanaut.
Speaking of the Aquanautā¦. itās funny how people think the Cubitus is a rip off from the Nautilus. But isnāt the Aquanaut a rip off as well judging by that standard. The totally unique shape of the bezel was taken from the Nautilus. Thatās pretty much all the design of that watch.
An other way to look at it is that one inspired the next and that shapes and design elements are informing the next piece. One could say Cartier works much the same way across models. Iām just saying I donāt see a problem with the Cubitus. Itās getting so. Icy head wind itās almost beginning to catch my interest š¤
A thousand times this
I actually did get a chance to try on a Cubitus the other day. It was not so bad in the metal! A nice watch, not an abomination like I'd thought from pictures, but still very very clearly a lesser watch than the 5711.
Both are cool
steel sports watches. Iām sure the Cubitus will have its moment too in the future. I think Iād get the Cubitus now, its design looks more modern.
I have one like this and enjoy it. No spare funds for a Cubitus. The Cubitus is definitely better than its initial reputation. For those who understand French here is a very interesting link to a YouTube

I saw the Cubitus a couple of days ago...
...I didn't try it on. But it still has not convinced me that it's a great or even good design. It's as if Patek designed their own Frankenwatch...
The 5811
Saw the Cubitus in person last month, and was taken aback by how terrible I thought it was. Itās ENORMOUS. I would love to own and wear a 5811; a Cubitus I would not add to my collection, even as a gift.
Despite the drawbacks of the WG I'd still take the 5811.
I'd rather feel its weight than have to look at the other.
5711 is legendary.
Having said that cubitus is growing on me now that Iāve had a chance to see it multiple times live.
really depends what you want...
Nautilus if you want to be happy yourselves Cubitus if you want to piss-off people around you and be happy about it
Isnāt that sad really?
Hi my friend. I think there is a point to what you said but I think it shows that our beautiful hobby is turned into a reality show/insta gram click shit show. Indifference to, or not liking s watch - sure, Fine. But pissing people off and the enormous am...
sad in deed we can't call a spade as spade anymore...
it is not the timepiece but the message given by PP imho... two years of innovation to have the same 31mm dia movement with impropotional case size between Nautilus & Cubitus - that is not innovation from PP stature. one can be convinced to buy the ti...
Hi Bruno, my preference is
both ! I tried all three Cubitus and, although large for my wrist, they felt and looked good in the metal ! Have you had they on your wrist ?
Cubitus...is the next Nautilus
I guess you already have the Nautillus so is just for fun š but if someone would buy today I would definitely get the Cubitus because it has more presence, it is easier to get and is really the next/better Nautilus. I am saying this as a Nautilus owner an...
Not a fan of the Nautilus, but...
...the Cubitus is by far the ugliest watch (all brands) I've had on my wrist in recent years š„“
