📄 Brief of the Watch
The Patek Philippe Nautilus Chronograph, Ref. 5980/60G-001, is a highly modern and striking evolution of the classic Genta design. It is crafted from elegant 18k White Gold and features a sophisticated Opaline Blue-Gray Dial with the signature horizontal embossing. This model is defined by its use of two straps, one of which is a Blue-Gray Calfskin Strap embossed with a "Denim" pattern, offering an exceptionally casual and contemporary look. Powered by the sophisticated Calibre CH 28-520 C flyback chronograph movement, this reference represents Patek Philippe's most fashion-forward expression of the complicated Nautilus.
