Bro, I have sold the 1A a few months after I received my 2nd Nautilus. Otherwise, I agree it will be one of a kind.

A pilot (under rated in my opinion) and an aquanaut?! What a perfect combo. Total bonus that these are unique pieces! Congrats.

Thanks! That blue sunburst goes very well with the blue Cordura strap.

Thanks! My wife loves that pilot, but she can't wear it yet because Patek has not managed to swap to a smaller strap for her. Still waiting.

congrats! I have to say I like both more with your "real life" pics versus the initial press and event photos which didn't catch the colors as well as yours. So awesome you got both!

Still waiting on the green bespoke strap. I was hoping Michael could do a brother a favor and hook me up.

Thanks all, appreciate all your kind comments.
I really like that red, and I think my Samsung phone captured the red hue very well.

Sorry bro, I have checked, and the AD said only 1 additional strap per owner of this piece.
GMT is quite strict in that sense I think.

I'm placing my additional strap order this weekend. Let you know then.

Looks great - as suspected I’m thinking the 37 would wear well on me (6.5). Would you estimate like a 40mm rolex?

It will wear well on you bro. My wrist is now 6.3" btw.

I only have the Daytona as comparison. The Pilot feels the same or maybe just a tiny tad smaller than the Daytona. Here are some pics.

The same! Last thing I need is another for the list. I’ll have to find one Irl to check out. Enjoy both “your” new beauties. I’ll start the bidding at 3k for the red strap

Re the red strap, I really can't because I'm not able to get more than 1 extra strap from GMT. That one is for myself.
