First released in 1976 as Reference 3700, the Patek Philippe Nautilus marked a revolutionary step towards blending luxury with modernism by adopting steel and a seamlessly integrated bracelet. Through the years, this iconic watch saw subtle modifications, yet its signature design remained consistent. Drawing inspiration from the Reference 3700, the Reference 5711 epitomizes the heritage of opulent sporty steel timepieces, marrying the functionality of time and date within its distinctive octagonal casing. Launched in 2006 and retired in 2021, the Reference 5711 has garnered immense popularity among collectors. Evolving from the original Jumbo Nautilus model, the 5711 variant introduced a sweep center second-hand and a marginally larger case featuring a sapphire crystal case back that beckons the viewer to admire the internal workings. This particular model is constructed in a tripartite pink gold case coupled with a bracelet, launched at BaselWorld 2015 after 9 years. It boasts a gradient brown dial adorned with signature horizontal lines that capture and play with light, reminiscent of teak decks on yachts, further enhancing the aesthetic appeal of the timepiece. This specific Reference 5711R is kept in an exceptionally pristine condition, showing minimal signs of wear. Now equipped with a sweep center seconds alongside the previously noted date function, this version swiftly garnered the interest of Patek Philippe enthusiasts and is currently esteemed as an essential piece for any modern collection. Additionally, it comes complete with the Patek Philippe Certificate of Origin and all original accompanying accessories.
