New Nautilus 2012 ?
Hi Guys,
was thinking about buying 5711/1A. Rang up a PP salon, I asked if there would be a chance that the 5711/1A might have a black dial next year or if they may change it a little.
I was told "We cant release any information until next year, but there is a possibility" I felt he was telling me something without saying it.
So what do we think ?

Hi, if can get hand on 5711/1A now at a good price n love the design , get it! Look at all the prices of the new releases by Patek, they are way higher than the current models.
I would take this as a standard reply.
I do not really believe that the staff in the Salons would know about the new releases. If they would, more info would surely leak before Baselworld. What comes to Nautilus, I think that the blue dial really makes the watch. I have 3712 and 3710 and there...
i totally agree
with your assessment about the blue dial. it defines the series as much as the design of the case and the bracelet.
Disagree somewhat
in regard to the blue vs black dial. One of the dial characteristics that we hold dear about the Nautilus series is the "striated" texture of the dial. Black dials with this texture are stunning. I think these can be seen on the 3711, 5711G, and new versi...
AP has made their name with countless variants or RO, so...
why wouldn't Patek add one or two varieties more of the Nautilus? (AP has also made their name with other extraordinary watches... just to be very fair... but that wasn't my point for this answer.)
Etymologically speaking,
"Nautilus", Latin, from Greek , sailor . Keep it blue, as it It was conceived to be. (Rest in peace, Mr. Genta.)
Ah!
Thanks. You learn something everyday here. Good point. I like it blue, by the way. I have too many black-ish dial watches anyway. Ken
agree +1
before the black dial 5980 was release I thought I love it black more then blue, but now I love a blue dialed Nautilus more!
