Pictorial summary of certain of the 2026 new releases
Had technical issues accessing the official releases but was happy to see a Patek AD (Cortina) in Asia (multi-brand) providing the following photos with reference numbers.
The 50th anniversary limited edition pieces for Nautilus are also included. Different from the ones a decade ago, there is no date function and so the dial is very clean to me. Furthermore, no indication of 50th on the dial and only shown on rotor in the back, thus more subtle.
Any piece(s) sing to you ? The 5249R with automatons providing time on demand caught my attention because it is artistic and is unusual.
I will be traveling to Geneva later tonight and will provide more information as soon as I can, especially on Rare Handcrafts,
If you have additional photos and details, please feel free to share.

Celestial is so UnPatek, cool.
the dial on new Nautilus is too blue, i like grey/blue dials way more then just blue. Other than that nothing really caught my eye.
The lugless Celestial is interesting 👍 For Nautilus blue dials, IMO the need to be
seen 👀 in the metal before passing judgement !
For me personally, the following three stand out:
1. 6105G-001: It dares to present a design they never did before. The Richard Mille for intellectuals, if you will... 2. 5810/1G-001: The 41mm size and the 240 microrotor movement makes this very compelling to me and I would love to own one (if that happe...
Have already "ordered" the 50th naut on strap
Love the diamond markers on the dial more than the smaller plat edition
The sporty new design of the Celestial is more like what I had expected when they served up the Cubitus for a new sports watch line...
... this is the star of the show for me but 47mm is not for the faint of heart. Other than that the platinum 50th Nautilus is very nice. For practical reasons I tend to prefer a date though. Also not a fan of the engraving on the rotor which looks kinda c...
Given that I have a recently discontinued AD I am currently focused on discontinued references :-)
More seriously, I have always had a soft spot for the celestial complication and the 6105G is very cool but it is also out of reach. The 5610/1P is lovely but in a small collection it would only make sense instead of my blue 5711/1A which has been getting...
I like the lugless case of the 6105..
But 47mm is very large even for a lugless watch.. in any case, it’s cool to see a lugless patek case I particularly like the 5810/1G and 5227G Finally a dateless 2 hand nautilus and it’s nice that they reworked the 5227 case to thicken the bezel.. the pre...
Thanks a lot for sharing this Gordon! 🙏
Actually I couldn't find the Nautilus novelties when I checked Patek's website this morning, so you have just discovered then to me! Safe travels and see you soon!
Yes Henry, the clock 🕰️ is interesting! Would you put
it on your desk in the office ?
Thank you for the presentation, Gordon!
The absolute star of the show, for me, is the 5249R-001. The two green Ellipse look quite nice and also maybe the Annual Calendar. Apart from these pieces, nothing gets me really excited right now, but it's too early to really know how we feel, isn't it? ...
Hi Emmanuel, Absolutely the fox 🦊
is THE highlight for 2016, for me anyway! Will provide comments when I see it in the metal 😃
I’m looking forward to your real life impressions !
And I’m glad we feel the same way about this timepiece.
I would love the 7047 sans repeater and the 5610P...
...but both are unaffordable/out of reach. The other one is the 5227G may be attainable, but I'd prefer it in platinum or steel (which they will never make)...
Thanks for sharing. Some models look nice. Price tags have just become overambitious imho for instance the celestial, or the Cubitus perpetual. If you see the latter on Patek’s website
the quality of the finishing on the cut outs on the movement is just plain rough industrial.
I'm not rich enough, but if I was...
...I would buy the Patek of my choice and send it out to a quality watchmaker and have them refinish the movement : )
Below are my personal favorite:
1. 958 - Can you imagine if PP puts it into a wearable watch case.... 2. 5270P - Both red and blue dials look extremely sharp. This can be another option in addition to the 5271P version. 3. 5249R - Is this the first automation timepiece from PP? A very s...
Brilliant nautilus 50 anniversary choice.
Understated (yes it’s gold and platinum I know) and design that’s vintage inspired. Ultimate IYKYK modern nautilus. But for me the gray 5236P and 5270P stole the show. I can’t wait to see those dial colors in person. I know many hate the cubitus but I’ll ...
Yes, agreed Gary ! Need to see the new watches in
the metal first before passing judgement !
For me the most aesthetically and technically exciting are the 5249R automaton, the blue and red lacquered dials 5270P and the new 5204G (love the blue/red).
The ultra thin Nautilus with iconic 240 movement and no date or second hand is quite interesting, but this is a “limited” (?) edition of 5,000 pieces….. yes, 5,000! Was hoping for a steel version…. Oh well. Need to see these Nautili in the metal and on my...
Yes Patekova , the automaton is perhaps the first piece ever for Patek !💪
Need to see it in the meat !
