Description
A perpetual calendar defines Patek Philippe Nautilus 5740/1G-001 Perpetual Calendar Moon Phases White Gold (2020); its construction brings together a 40mm white gold case, a blue dial, and an automatic movement.
Patek Philippe accomplished what many considered impossible — fitting a perpetual calendar into the Nautilus silhouette while preserving the proportions that define the model. The ultra-thin automatic Caliber 240 Q drives the perpetual calendar via a 22-karat gold micro-rotor, visible through the sapphire caseback.
At 8.42mm thick, it remains the thinnest perpetual calendar Patek Philippe has ever produced.
The 40mm case in 18-karat white gold frames a sunburst blue dial with the signature horizontally embossed pattern and white gold applied baton hour markers. Three subdials at three, six, and nine o'clock display day, date, month, leap year cycle, moon phase, and 24-hour indication.
An integrated white gold bracelet with fold-over clasp completes the watch. This timepiece comes with a stylus, and has an old-style clasp without a micro adjustment.
Introduced in 2018, the 5740/1G marked a pivotal moment in the Nautilus's history: the first Grand Complication ever housed within Gérald Genta's 1976 sports design. The watch dates to 2020; it is described in pre-owned (very good) condition and is offered with its original box and original papers.
