Patek Philippe 5740/1G Nautilus Perpetual Calendar 18K White Gold Blue Dial

Patek Philippe introduced the 5740/1G-001 in 2018 as the first grand complication to grace the iconic Nautilus line—a statement piece that fuses Gerald Genta’s landmark 1976 sports design with the highest echelon of perpetual calendar horology. The 18K white gold case and integrated bracelet underscore the exclusivity and subtle radiance of this reference, while the blue sunburst dial with its horizontal embossing and luminescent hour markers creates immediate visual impact. With a svelte case thickness of just 8.42 mm, the 5740 remains true to Nautilus tradition, thanks to the ultra-thin automatic Caliber 240 Q, renowned for its reliability and featuring an off-center 22K gold micro-rotor. The perpetual calendar display is executed with Patek Philippe’s hallmark precision, offering day, date, month, leap year, and moonphase indications in a legible, harmonious layout. Water resistance to 30 meters maintains practical versatility for everyday elegance. The 5740/1G holds particular collector distinction as both the thinnest perpetual calendar ever crafted by Patek Philippe and the singular grand complication in the Nautilus collection, making it a sought-after grail for connoisseurs. An understated masterpiece, it bridges sporting spirit with horological gravitas, standing as a testament to Patek Philippe’s mastery of perpetual innovation.
