** The Nautilus reference 5711 was launched in 2006 with the 'First Series' watches housing the cal. 315 SC movement. After six months Patek Philippe equipped the 5711 with the new cal. 324 SC movement.
It is thought that the cal. 324 SC, destined for the 5711, was not ready in time for the launch of the model and the cal. 315 SC was used instead for this brief period.
It is believed that only around a 1,000 models of the 5711 exist with the cal. 315 SC movement, making it a rare variant of the Nautilus reference 5711.
Presented in very fine condition and private provenance.
