The first Grand Complication in the Nautilus collection, the Reference 5740/1 Nautilus perpetual calendar, offers a distinctive blend of sports appeal and technical sophistication. Thanks to the famous ultra-thin self-winding caliber 240 Q movement, the case (water resistant to 60 m) is remarkably svelte, making this watch Patek Philippe’s thinnest perpetual calendar.
The bracelet is equipped with a new fold-over clasp providing optimized security.
For the very first time, Patek Philippe has released a Nautilus perpetual calendar.
The reference 5740G is a solid white gold Nautilus measuring 40mm across with a recognizable QP layout on the dial that shows the month, day, date, leap year, moonphase, and 24-hour cycle.
While the complication is new, this watch is a Nautilus through and through – we've got the classic blue dial with the horizontal ribbing, luminous applied markers and hands, and the mix of brushed and polished finishes that give the watch so much dynamism.
Patek has taken two great things – the Nautilus and the Caliber 240 Q and put them together. You've got one of the most classic designs of all time meeting a quintessential Patek Philippe movement.
The fact that the watch is 40mm in diameter and just 8.32mm thick is awesome and it wears super well on the wrist.
