Watch Review

There is actually a lot to talk about in a timepiece such as the Patek Philippe Nautilus reference 5980/1R-001. Since the Nautilus series was introduced in 1976 and continues to appear classic, everyone is aware of how great of a piece this Patek Philippe chronograph is.

The stunning dial of this wristwatch is prompted by the hue of the dial on the initial Patek Philippe Nautilus ref. 3700. It is thus offered in 18K rose gold or in a “two-tone” version featuring stainless steel and 18K rose gold, as seen by the reference number 5980/1AR-001.

The Patek Philippe Nautilus is the optimum size and wearable watch, thanks to its 40.5 mm case. The black gradation dial is basically a smoky gray or ash brown that alters color according to the lighting. The monocounter chrono-white clock’s highlights and the rose gold-fitted markers with bright material produce the ideal contrast.

The lovely brown motif dial is adorned with eight-hour marks made of 18k rose gold. The minute and hour indicators are constructed of 18k rose gold with accents that glow in the dark. In addition, they have a leafy form.

The bezel, crown, case, case back, bracelet, as well as chamfers all have matching flawlessly refined surfaces that are satin-brushed on this watch. It is one of the most beautiful 18k rose gold items ever made because of this. When it comes to ultra-special finish, a Nautilus could rival any Audemars Piguet Royal Oak or Royal Oak Offshore.

The Patek Philippe Nautilus is mechanically driven by the Patek Philippe Chronograph caliber CH 28-520 C, which has a 12-hour monocounter Chrono. The caliber is made up of 327 meticulously handmade parts, 35 gems, plus 13 bridges. The caliber boasts a 55-hour power reserve and strikes at a frequency of 28,800 vph if fully wound. It can be seen plainly via the back window display.

The movement has the Geneva grade symbol. The central wheel of the unidirectional rotating device is composed of 21k gold. It uses a four-arm Gyromax balancer with four inertial blocks. The Balanced Spring was made by Breguet.

The bracelet is well constructed and quite sturdy, making it both beautiful to look at and exceptionally comfortable to wear. This is distinct from the ring on the stainless steel version. As a result, the wristwatch has a robust wrist aspect and fits the wrist well.

There are moments when you genuinely desire to flaunt a flashy yet elegant item. Therefore, purchasing a Patek Phillipe Nautilus 5980/1R-001 is the best way to accomplish this. Not only is everything rose gold, but the hour markings have gold paint that makes them luminous. This stands out strikingly against the black dial. Additionally, this variant is 120 meters water resistant.
