New Nautilus Clasp
Picked up a 5990/1A yesterday and was pleasantly surprised to find it being fitted with a new clasp looking like that which was introduced with the 5740/1G (and previously also on ladies models). I knew that 5980/1R and 5990/1R had these but 5990/1A still has the old clasp on the PP website..
Anyone know if this is the clasp all new Nautilus are fitted with nowadays? And it should really be possible to do a retrofit on those with old clasps too, right? Reference is unchanged, 5990/1A-001.

Excellent, congrats on seizing a superb Nautilus reference with the nice extra perk of this new clasp! ;-)
Frankly I can't find confirmation in any of the material that I have for this year's models, but I wouldn't be surprised if all Nautilus clasps be eventually updated, as the new watches enter production ;-) Cheers.
No, 5711/1A-014 and 5711/1R still have the old clasp.
BTW, the ladies models clasp is different, it has a micro adjustment option. 5990/1A has been fitted with the new clasp for quite a while. Best, V. ...
