  1. Congratulations It looks spot on, the hour markers look even better than on mine q
  2. I have a rep tourbillion of the same type as in this replica and it has been very reliable in my hands The only negative thing with this JLC replica is that it say REGULATEUR on the dial (hands are not as on a REGULATEUR as far as i know) The watch: This new master Tourbillon is named “Regulateur a Tourbillon”, meaning “Tourbillon regulator”. The choice of this name comes from the objective of having a reference in terms of precision. It is housed in a 41.5 mm case, with a classical Master series design. As explained by Mr Janek Deleskievicz who designed the watch, the design was focussed on the tourbillon, making it transparent so that it appeals to the eye. The tourbillon bridge was made convex to follow the form of the cage and to break the flatness of the watch. It also brings the seconds hand up. The dial is silvered and brushed, making it deep and understated. The overall look is demonstrative of the horological content, but in no way ostentatious in my opinion. It’s really an everyday watch, readable and appealing in the long term. Three versions are created for the launch. First of all, a very pleasing steel version that could allow some of us to jump the gap and make it our everyday watch.
  3. Dette blir gøy Krister did you eally mean WC pictures? I usually use the term QC pictures

  9. The Patek Philippe Nautilus A. GENUINE NAUTILUS IN DETAILS FIRST: Current Mens Version: Patek Philippe Nautilus 5711 Newest Patek Philippe Nautilus 5711-1A Current versions: 1. 5711-1A = All SSteel and on SSteel bracelet and Blue dial/face only 2. 5711G = White Gold and only on leather strap. Grey dial/face 3. 5711J = Yellow gold and only on leather strap. Silver dial/face 4. 5711R = PINK/RED gold and only on leather strap. Black dial/face New accents in yellow, white and rose gold To spotlight the aesthetic combination of materials, the dials match the case color in each version. They are silvery for the yellow-gold model, a warmer brown-charcoal for the rose-gold model, and a cool slate gray for the white-gold model. The brown-charcoal dial is galvanized and lacquered to produce a light-to-dark gradation from the center to the periphery. The silvery gray and slate gray dials are galvanized and not gradated. All dials feature the distinctive Nautilus horizontal embossing pattern and large applied luminous hour markers in yellow, white or rose gold to match the case. These new Nautilus Grande Taille variations are worn on alligator straps – safari black with white gold, chocolate with yellow gold, and dark brown with rose gold. The fold-over clasp in matching gold is a new three-part design with a threaded length adjustment device for a particularly gentle and secure fit. Conclusion on the genuine versions: So strictly speaking 1. Natulius 5711-1A with blue dial should be SS and have the SS bracelet 2. The Natulius 5711J Silver, 5711R Black and 5711G Grey dial ones should be in gold and have leather bracelets 3. However the White Gold 3711G version from 2004 to 2006 has a gray white gold bracelet Link: http://watch-fever.blogspot.com/2010/05/patek-philippe-37111a-wg-nautilus.html Note: there is also a current and previous smaller diameter Patek Philippe Nautilus and ladies versions but we will not discuss those here The Nautilus History in brief: Key dates 1976 3700/1A Presentation of first Nautilus, nicknamed “Jumbo”, production discontinued 1990 1981 3800/1A Launch of medium model, production discontinued 2006 1981 4700/1A Launch of ladies’ model, production discontinued 2006 1998 3710/1A Relaunch of large “Jumbo” model with winding zone indicator IZR, production discontinued 2006 2004 3711/1A Launch of large model in white gold, + White Gold bracelet production discontinued 2006 2006 Launch of new NAUTILUS collection Evolution of the new Nautilus 2006 collection 1.

THE 5711 1:1 REPLICAS: THE 1:1 version is the best replica of the NAUTILUS Conclusions: 1. The Blue dial 5711 Replica version with SS bracelet is closest to the original 2. The hours markers follow he dial like on the genuine. The shape of the hour markers matches contour of octagonal bezel at every position (The position or length of the hour markers at 6 and 12 O'Clock on Replica are maybe not identical to most pictures of the newest version of the original) 3. The "gold" Replica versions i.e. those with silver, black or gray dial 1:1 versions should all have leather straps. also they should have gold stamps on the back that are missing on these 1:1 replicas 4. Rotor on Replica is very very nice and a huge improvement but PATEK logo is not engraved but is a stick on 5. Dimensions, Screw in crown, crystal, caseback, links on bracelet, hands etc. are close enough to the genuine 6. The SS bracelet is of sufficiently quality but not quite 1:1 with the original (engraved logo on clasp is inferior and the extra holes in the replica bracelett is a negative). This could easily be improved? 7. I have not inspected the straps so not sure on that. 8. Movement on replica is SWISS. The Sellita SW200 works excellent and nice super smooth 28.800 sweep (but obviously the genuine movement is a masterpiece and can not be replicated) 9. The replica is of a high quality product and QC seems better than on most replicas 10 Position of date window is correct and font and size of date is acceptable 11. The hour markers follow the case shape in the same way as the original 12. Lume is on hands and hour markers but is replica style and weak To sum it up this is an excellent replica in most ways and I will use this watch as often as I can (Even if the SS bracelett could be improved, and also an engraved insignia rater than stick-on to the gold rotor would be better. Also there is the question of the position of the hour markers at 12 and 6 O'Clock but some genuines seem to be exactly like the replica in this respect) C. My 5711G Replica from MARY MY REPLICA of the 5711G (or actually it is more like the 3711/1G?) D. THE GENUINE 5711G E. More details on genuine Nautilus versions 5711-1, 5711G Note more details later Note: The NAUTILUS 3711/1G produced only from 2004 to 2006 was in white gold with white gold bracelett. Ref 3711/1A White Gold Nautilus. The Last one is very very rare, believe there is less than 100o pieces ever made.This combination is not available on the current 5711 series. Notice that the hour markers differ from current 5711 version Some links to the replica here on RWG:
  10. duplicate sorry
  11. Maybe he simply thinks that the genuine PO is not a watch he thinks is worth buying anymore given the quality of the new replicas.....maybe he simply wants to tease the gen PO owners...funny with that guy that wants to see the movement
  12. Thanks but gotta stay awake Huge file with my own pictures of this PATEK Review will come later unless someone else beats me to it
  13. Thank you all very very much again Really tired now this morning..mounatins of bottles and cans to remove...food all over the place...dishwasher will be running for 24hrs now
  14. Thank you all very very much great day indeed...swimming in Cognac I am it is now 04:25 here in Norway and all the guest have left her in my house are gone to their guest beds Dr.Gran
  15. Finaly the NAUTILUS has arrived in Norway Had no time to determine how great of a watch this is, but my wife Elin likes it and that is ceratinly the No.1 priority for this dresswatch (actually its a birthday present from her) Actually I will have my great birthday party today and just been at the "vinmonopolet" to get all the needed spirits and red and wgite wines etc...even the BBQgrill has gas connected to it (a B'day gift from the USA this monster of a BBQ machine) now so we're ready to party
  16. She has had easy life until now ...now its NANUG time
  17. yes collecting replicas is not a good way to save money..sending back watches is a pain in so many ways
  18. you do not wear such a watch..it just sits in the watchbox or a safe...so expensive these rare ones are....and then when your drunk or stoned you take it out to look at it
  19. Ther really is no big diference just spm DOMENICO lume and DOMENICO has also painted the metal around/below the the date window black...I actually wanted him to do a FAUX date modification for me but he was either unabele to do it or he was simply unable to understand my instructions (so my watch is largely like yours) My instructions...wonder if someone else could do this faux mod....???
