JimmyV 0 Posted February 8, 2014 Ok, I finally gave into the Patek bug that was getting bigger by every Patek picture. I managed to pick up a blue dial PP Nautilus. I absolutely love it and it wears perfect for smaller wrist guys. The low profile, how it lays/wears, the dial it just looks awesome in different lighting. In time if I could afford a pricey gen this would be a winner. Thank you DC for all your Patek pics lol. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

_DC_ 218 Posted February 8, 2014 No two ways about it, it's a superb watch. If I was only allowed to keep one watch from my collection it would be my Nautilus! Mine says hello DC Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
zak3737 0 Posted February 10, 2014 Hi, nice addition ! Strangely, a friend called me today to ask if I can get him as good a copy of that same watch - Blue Dial with Steel strap etc, - where did you source pls ? TD ? or M2M ? Thx :-) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
_DC_ 218 Posted February 10, 2014 Mine is the Swiss SW200 version, it came from Trusty Time, they're not cheap though, was a shade under $500 DC Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Thx :-) I picked this up from a M2M sale on another board. But as DC said lots of the TD's carry it. Also with different movements and prices. A TD might be better since they don't come up often. When they do they sell decently quickly. But its deff a fantastic watch and looks stunning. I would buy one for yourself also Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

And the Nautilus has been in my sight for some time, but I concerned that the watch might look a bit too big for my small 6.25" wrist. May I ask what your wrist size is?

Don't worry Nomistra, it might not look it in pictures but the Nautilus is a small watch, when I first purchased one I was surprised that it was a lot smaller than I had expected from photographs. It's case size is technically 40mm but this is measured diagonally, and because of it's square shape this means it's actually only about 38 from one edge of the bezel to the other, also the bezel is quite thick so the dial itself is very small which makes it look even smaller! I have 6.5 inch wrists and therefore I hate big watches, for me the Nautilus wears perfectly if a little small by most people's standards, you will not be disappointed I promise!!!

That sounds good. However, should I go for the 1:1 rep which cost around $500 - 3 time more than the cheapes rep? I mean I don't want to de disapointed as his is my the first time rep purchase, but is it worth the big cost difference? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Aren 27 Posted February 20, 2014 Congrats on a lovely watch. I the Pateks. The Nautilus looks great on a 6.25" wrist IMO. It also wears smaller and sleeker than it is. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

budfox1028 0 Posted March 24, 2014 Just ordered one a few days ago. Anyone know if it's fairly easy to adjust the bracelet and what tools are required? I've got the GMTii bracelet and it's very simple with a small screwdriver. Any suggestions greatly appreciated, Tks, B Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
