Has the price of the Patek Philippe Nautilus 5711 / 1A-010 watch replica shot up by 50%?

Internet rumors have raised the price of the Patek Philippe Nautilus stainless steel blue dial watch replica 5711/1A-010, according to Chrono24 data. Last year, the watch's market was virtually unchanged, and on January 25, WatchPro received news from Patek Philippe and the brand's authorized dealers that the model would soon be discontinued, and the price rose further to 31 percent. Today, the Patek Philippe 5711/1A-010 replica is trading at around €90,000, which is 50 percent higher than the 2020 market. In hindsight, an immediate purchase seemed like a wise investment choice at the time.

Case & Dial

Two versions of the Patek Philippe Nautilus 5711 replica. the first with a gradient blue dial (Ref. 5711 / 1A-010 replica) and the second in silver with black markers (Ref. 5711 / 1A-011 replica). The former is the popular variant, while the latter is arguably the clearer of the two.

The Nautilus case is 40mm wide (with the flanks) and is just 8.3mm thick with 120 meters of water resistance. Covering the dial is a flat sapphire crystal, and the crown securely screws into the case.

Compared to the Royal Oak, the Patek Philippe Nautilus copy looks softer, rounder, maybe a bit less bold and masculine and a tad more feminine. The ribbed gradient blue dial of the Nautilus looks more elegant than the anthracite/grey ‘clous de Paris’ dial of the Royal Oak. Same goes for the bracelet and the case; fewer angles and fewer sharp shapes add some more joie de vivre to the Nautilus.

Bracelet

The steel bracelet includes both a brushed steel bracelet and a polished central bracelet, both very slim and very comfortable on the wrist. The clasp is a simple clasp that cannot be easily adjusted or micro/fine-adjusted to adjust its size as your wrist grows or shrinks with temperature changes. There is also no easy way to change the steel bracelet on a rubber or leather strap.

Movement

The movement is a fine example of what you should look for in a simple yet high-end sports watch. What makes the caliber 324 S C impressive beyond its high-level of finishing is its thin profile. The movement is just 3.3mm thick, and in all, the Nautilus maintains a water resistance of 120m despite being just 8.3mm thick. The automatic rotor is in solid 21k gold, which actually means it weighs enough to keep the winding efficiency high. The movement operates at 4Hz (28,800 bph) with 45 hours of power reserve, and it also features Patek Philippe’s in-house Gyromax balance wheel and Spiromox balance spring. I would say performance is likely on par or within a respectable margin of Rolex’s “Superlative Chronometers.” Finishing, though, is a different story—Patek Philippe replica lavishes the surfaces with Cotes de Geneve stripes and small, elegant sections of perlage, with the latter being my favorite element of the movement.

There are still minor differences between the finishing of the caliber 324 S with a movement on a watch in the $100,000+ range. The beveled edges, for instance, are very slim, and I’d love for them to be wider and more hand-finished. It would just make the movement feel so much more valuable. 

Conclusion

Tim Stracke, Co-CEO of Chrono24, said: "After Patek Philippe confirmed the discontinuation of the 5711/1A-010 replica, the pre-owned market reacted immediately, with watches rapidly increasing in value and demand being stronger than ever. Even before the rumors were confirmed, we could see that the value of the watches had increased by 25% and that purchase requests had almost doubled.
