About Nautilus 5711

Patek Philippe Nautilus 5711 model is produced by 3K Factory with a solid stainless steel case, standard case diameter and high-precision automatic Super Clone movement architecture. It is among the most successful 1:1 super clone watch reviews on the market, with its sapphire crystal AR coating glass, original case tolerances and detailed workmanship.

I have introduced several factory versions of this watch on my blog, such as BP, PPF, 3K and BBF, and I believe that no one will want to buy from BP and PPF. The mechanism of the BP version is very noisy; PPF's dial color is good, but its movement is not a super clone. So how is this watch from 3K and BBF? The dial color on 3K's blue Nautilus 5711 isn't very good, and I really can't understand why 3K Factory hasn't improved the engraving on the movement; laser engraving is too shallow.

I think people who don't want to spend extra money on modification usually buy this watch from BBF and DDF. The dial color on the blue Nautilus of these two factories is better, and the movement engravings are much deeper than 3K. However, the Nautilus 5711 from BBF and DDF is not perfect either; especially in BBF the ear shape is not correct.

There are two safes upstairs; top from DDF, bottom from BBF. The shape of the ear in DDF looks better.

So at the end of this article, I give you a few options to get this replica Nautilus 5711. This is just my advice; I'm not encouraging you to buy a replica here.

1. Buy directly from DDF.

2. Get it from BBF, replace the dial, hour and minute hands, and date wheel with parts from SW, then refinish the entire watch and make the shape of the lug better.
3. There are some shops in the market that do custom work; Their Nautilus 5711 has a free-sprung 324 movement with a better CNC case and better decoration. Please see the pictures below.
