its sad..
But I have come to realise that Brand directions change simply becoz the heads of departments change.. Experienced this first hand at Lange, my ex-fav brand.
Some heads respect heritage whilst some have tacky tastes and chase top line.
So now I no longer have a fav brand, and I strictly restrict myself to 3 watches per brand.. Diversification helps..
To remind u of happier days 
Patek Philippe Nautilus 5711/1A-011 - Therapy for the anniversary :)
Just some photos of my Patek Philippe Nautilus 5711/1A-011 to contract the recent releases ... just giving you a break from the anniversary pieces Enjoy! Christian...
so true! sometime something simple ...
shouldn't be changes so dramatically! love this one with the white dial and was so happy to get one!
Have you thought how far
the "Anniversary Nautilus" are from the spirit of the original. In 1976 Nautilus was a luxury watch with a great movement made of steel. Now it's white gold & platinum, gold dial, diamond markers and cheap looking engraving on the dial. I can't expres...

great photo..love this version of the nautilus with some
very useful complications. I was thinking they would release an annual or perpetual calendar nautilus..I was really wrong and didn't expect it. I agree with you that is good to have diversity each brand would have some hit and some miss. I love the feelin...
It's always great to see 5712. Such a wonderful watch.
I have not yet decided if my 3712 or 5712 will stay and the other will go. Best, Kari
Keep the 3712
Simply becoz the 5712 will be milked till its tits are all bruised if this continues at Patek.. Unfortunately the 3712 is out of reach for me.. So I m content with this one ...
They are both wonderful watches
but I am keeping just the watches I am wearing a lot. Others will go. Best, Kari
sometimes luxury is not in the diamonds or the metal..and steel
is pretty special for patek! disappointed that didn't issue any version in steel. Not consistent with the history and heritage of the watch...but perhaps it will be sold out quickly
From these two new versions
it is easy to see that the only intention is to make money. They do not respect the heritage of Nautilus at all! Gold dials with engravings and diamonds. Do these have anything to do with 3700/1A? Nothing in my opinion. I think these two new watches can b...
you are welcome Mark...
I really enjoy this watch a lot and love the white dial. Of course this model was not sought after like the blue but I knew that this one would be for me and I was right. Love how simple it is and I think that Patek should have released at least one steel...
Stunning...
Understated, classy, sporty, timeless are just some definitions for this beauty. Time will do justice to the white 5711. Believe me.
thanks Ed! I agree ! this is really
a special watch and very modern/different in white. Enjoying it a lot ! not limited..not anniversary but doesn't matter Christian
thank you Ed..I agree that the white dial
was not much loved or still is but time will do justice to it ...true thou that now is very difficult to find one so I was lucky to get one after a pretty long wait...
I love....
the simplicity and purity of that dial. Thank you for taking and posting the photos! Cheers, Filip
you are very welcome Filip... perhaps just
a remind of why so many love the nautilus ..the secret is in the simplicity and perhaps will be still very much loved in the next years. I like the purity of the white dial and it looks great with white shirts Christian
no equation and no tiffany mark on the dial :) simple
yet very special in this new dial color. Patek should have considered a steel model for the anniversary with a different dial color, no second hands and it would have made a lot of people happy. Don't really understand why not... changing a dial for them ...
One of the few new Pateks I looooove
I saw this one in a hotel lobby. Just loved it. When I find one with my name on it, I'll add it to the collection for sure. I prefer it to the blue dial quite a lot.
