Thanks Keks! And I agree with you that 5131J lends itself to a variety of strap choices that bring out the beauty of the watch much more
than the brown strap supplied with the watch by Patek. Nothing wrong with the brown strap especially for someone regularly wearing a suit and tie, but for me there are much more appealing possibilities. Best, patekova
Dressing down to suit ones lifestyle...
Perhaps the trend and demand for sportier and more elegant casual timepieces these days are merely a reflection of how we choose to project ourselves and our contemporary lifestyle? So, what if more traditional timepieces were made to appear more casual a...
How about making a Nautilus World Time instead?
Vacheron Constantin has the Overseas World Time, so why not Patek Philippe?
I think a Patek WT watch in steel would be awesome!
But I think the squarish case of the Nautilus does not work well with the WT globe and the circular cities printing.
Hehehe...first we PuristS need to pool our money to buy a soccer team
...then win a championship and then ask Mr. Stern for a special edition watch...I want a dragon engraving on the caseback 😂
Could be in the cards...
But inclined to think the Nautilus and Aquanaut will stick to the travel time complication.... but an enamel dial Nautilus would not surprise me....
They Really Hurt the Nautilus case design with the Perpetual Calendar...
1. New perpetual calendar looks off, the font is not a font that Patek uses in other Nautilus watches. Compare the font of the date subdial to the date subdial of the 5712. Completely different. 2. The case at 9 o'clock has a noticeable pusher ruining the...
Agree on most counts there....
Personally I would have like to see the perpetual Nautilus be simply a 5726 with a perpetual module... I understand it would not be as thin but the waffle dial would be more in harmony I am thinking... world time Nautilus would be a little odd but hey who...
Looks great K!
Maybe with green stitching, it could draw out and complement the enamel map. Or how about, a green leather strap with yellow stitching? I do agree with your statement about the general change across most cultures to a casual lifestyle one. Am counting dow...
Thanks J for your kind words... the countdown is well past 8 in my opinion....
As far as your suggestions on green stitch or green strap with honey stitch it makes some sense. However in my mind i am inclined to believe that takes it to the “trying too hard” level.... But who knows, maybe my next step will be “trying too hard”.... ...
The tie almost seems dead in many business places...
when you decide to wear one people ask you whether you are going to an interview LOL
Watch!
I can't get the watch! Sadly. But if I did have a similar watch, I'd be trying to procure a strap as well! It's a lovely strap!
Love that blue strap matching the dial so well.
Thought about a blue strap for mine but perhaps I will try one out if I tire of this one! Perhaps a blue calf.... Personally I believe the 5131J becomes much more attractive in most straps out her than the supplied dark brown crocodile....

Hi Patekova, wow ! The blue strap really gives...
a new perspective and different feel to your 5131J ! Well done !
I think you've found a perfect match.
I'm all for dressing this type of watch down with a good strap choice. What amazes me is that 15+ years after Paneristi made a small section of the Panerai world strap crazy, and many years after Panerai jumped on that wave itself to offer all kinds of ev...
Thanks!
I agree, missed opportunity for Patek and ALS.... but perhaps one day.... until then we have to go our own way to make things happen! I know you like to dress your timepieces up in various straps and you do it real well! Thanks for sharing your thoughts!
Well said, Keks, and I agree 100%.
A strap change, in my opinion, can completely change the feeling a watch gives. I love experimenting with these combinations. The only drawback is the small army of straps I’m accumulating. It’s fun to pursue that “perfect” matching even if we all know th...
Love that strap on your R! A fantastic reference made even more beautiful with these stylish shoes
Makes it so much more wearable in my opinion! Thanks for sharing
very beautiful new...
shoes ! This combo works well ! Given the yellow parts in the dial, a yellow strap might also work. Thanks for the innovation !
Thank you keks!
Both for your interesting reasoning about watches&contemporary lifestyle and for your experience with your truly wonderful PP. Ciao, Elio
