Patek Philippe Ref. 5712/1R-001 Nautilus

Heir to the first Nautilus with complications (Reference 3712/1, 2005), Reference 5712/1 was launched in 2006 for the collection’s 30th anniversary. Since then, it has been a great success in a steel version featuring a blue dial with black-gradient rim. (5712/1A-001). Patek Philippe has reinterpreted this flagship model with a rose gold case and bracelet and a sunburst brown dial with black-gradient rim, creating a warm harmony with the shimmering metal.

In addition to the hours and minutes, ultra-thin self-winding 240 PS IRM C LU caliber displays with perfect legibility small seconds at 4 o'clock, as well as three complications: a power-reserve indication between 10 and 11 o'clock; a date indicated by hand at 7 o'clock, surrounding a moon-phase display. 

The original layout of the dial functions gives the watch a characteristic and highly recognizable appearance. The readability of the dial with its typical Nautilus horizontally embossed motif is enhanced by applied hour markers and rounded baton-type hour and minute hands, all in rose gold with white luminescent coating.

The case water-resistant to 60m, octagonal bezel and integrated bracelet featuring three rows of links are enhanced by an elegant contrast between the hand-crafted polished and satin finishes.

The rose gold bracelet with patented Patek Philippe fold-over clasp, secured by four independent catches, is equipped with a new lockable adjustment system serving to gain 2 or 4 mm in length thanks to its simple, quick and secure handling, thus ensuring greater comfort in daily life.

The new rose gold Reference 5712/1R-001 joins the steel version featuring a blue dial with a black-gradient rim. This model is also available in rose gold and white gold with alligator leather straps (References 5712R-001 and 5712G-001).
