i saw it in real for the first time when i picked up the 5980R and the 5164R the other day. the owner of the AD showed it to me in its original PP box and i thought at first he wants to sell it to me. i still think he thought about it but then figured that the 5960R and the 5164R are good enough for me this time (our first meeting). it is a wonderful watch!!!! i scolded a friend very recently for spending so much money on it but now i understand. a life-time watch. buy-and-never-sell.

You walked into an AD and picked up a Nautilus and Aquanaut.

You sir, have amazing luck.

I’m surprise you haven’t gotten one considering the other watches you have gotten.

Maybe you can adopt me with your luck in watch buying :)

Would be stunning in rose gold or yellow gold too, and steel, and ceramic (if PP ever gets there).

I think Patek will produce a 5740R in the next few years and may be a platinum version for the 50th anniversary of Nautilus. I doubt they will produce a steel version. To the best of my knowledge I don't think they have produced a stainless steel perpetual calendar after the unique 1526 they produced in 1949.

Agree about an R. I don’t think a P will follow for 50th, that would be too easy.

5740G is one step up in in exclusivity from what i got. but yeah, still i got lucky this time round. if/when i get the 5980 1R and the AR (back) then i shall be really happy:::))))
anyway, now i also need to wear those buggers...today i found myself walk out of the house happily with my DD40:::)))

Thanks guys
I loved my day date but I sold it because I couldn’t be bothered getting a half link and the lack of micro adjustment annoyed me.
As for the 5740 if and when they make a P I believe that based on my experience with the 5711P it will be too heavy. The weight of the G is perfect.
