Patek Philippe Nautilus is a classic in the history of watches. Here is a detailed introduction:
History of the series
Background: In 1976, Patek Philippe launched the Nautilus series. At that time, high-end watches were slender and ultra-thin, and the case material was mainly precious metals. The Nautilus series was forged with stainless steel. The large case with a width of 42 mm and a thickness of 7.6 mm is matched with an octagonal ship porthole-shaped case that is neither round nor square, breaking the traditional design conventions of replica luxury watches.
Development history: In 1980, the Ref.4700 ladies' model was launched, and in 1981, the Ref.3800 debuted, which is a model designed for smaller wrists. After the large model was discontinued in 1990, the Nautilus series was once the only casual watch model of Patek Philippe. In 1998, the brand re-launched the original style of the Nautilus series and added a patented winding status display. In 2006, when the Nautilus series celebrated its 30th anniversary, Patek Philippe launched six new models, including 5800/1A, 5711/1A, 5712/1A, 5712R, 5712G, and 5980/1A. In 2014, the Ref. 5990/1A dual time chronograph was launched.
Design Features
Unique appearance: The case design is inspired by the octagonal porthole of a ship, with slightly arched corners. There are hinges on the left and right sides of the watch body, which are called "ears". The bracelet is changed from a straight design to a slightly arched shape, reflecting the curve of the side edge of the bezel. The horizontally extended ridge design is also one of its iconic features, which not only enhances the sturdiness of the watch, but also adds a unique sense of layering and three-dimensionality to the overall appearance.replica Patek Philippe Nautilus watches
Exquisite dial: Most of them use horizontally embossed dials. This unique texture design not only increases the texture and three-dimensionality of the dial, but also produces unique light and shadow effects under light from different angles. Common dial colors include blue, black, white, etc. Some styles are also equipped with gold or silver hour markers and hands, which are simple and elegant.

Exquisite craftsmanship: Patek Philippe has always been striving for excellence in watchmaking, from the polishing and assembly of the movement to the production and polishing of the case, and then to the inlay of gemstones. Every link shows a very high level.
