And you know what? Most people here would say the exact same thing about their own Pateks. And that's what's cool: Patek offers dozens of models - everybody can get the ones they like, and not get the ones they don't like. That way, everyone is guaranteed to have only beautiful watches. :-)

So enjoy the hell out of your Pateks. If you bought one, by definition it is awesome in exactly the way you want it to be.

Cheers, everybody.

For me the ideal nautilus collection is 5711 white, 5712 and 5990. Now adding 5740 to round up the team is nice but I can do without. And to answer the question, there is no enough number of naughty....

You’ve got at least one other 5711. How many Nauti’s do you own, my friend? This much PM could almost qualify you as a gold bug.

I remember there are many newly rich actors musicians or sport stars seen wearing Nautilus ; not so much of iconic billionaires that wear Nautilus. Do you agree?
There are more billionaires wearing daydate than Nautilus.

There’s nothing wrong with a Nautilus oriented collection, so until you have them all, you can never have enough

At the over MSRP level by what they are, I'll back the 0, maybe 1 I you REALLY want to spend a hell of a lot of money for something worth a half of the value as a product. I do enjoy the Nautilus lineup, and I've literally had most of them...but so much is hype now and the marketplace being as it is, takes all the fun out of it IMHO. If at MSRP, then its hard to say no if its one of the models you really want, but not if it's just to take one for the hell of it.

Billionaires like Billgates prefer buy casio, they have no time to be sitting on waitlist, the way Nautilus are marketed it target for the upper middle class watch addicts not really for busy business person.

I have a feeling that if Bill wanted a Nautilus the waitlist would be about an hour...depends whether he is at home or not

Without needing develop relationships with AD?
For watches, Bill somewhat prefers casio.
But when Bill travel he travel in luxury private jet. And he often booked private island for holiday.
