The Patek Philippe Nautilus enjoys “holy grail” status for many watch enthusiasts. This is especially true of the stainless steel three-hand models, which are the closest to the original designed by Gérald Genta in 1976. From the start, the Nautilus was anything but cheap. Patek even advertised the watch with the slogan “One of the world’s costliest watches is made of steel.” But in recent years, prices for the Nautilus have exploded, climbing to almost absurd heights.

10/09/2024 6 minutes By Donato Emilio Andrioli Five years ago, I fulfilled a little dream and bought myself a Rolex Submariner, probably the most famous Rolex of all time and the most copied watch in the world. After five years of wearing the legendary diving watch every occasion imaginable, it’s time to come to an honest conclusion: Is the design really as timeless as people say? How does the technology perform after so many years?

09/09/2024 6 minutes While the heart of any watch is its movement, the first thing people usually look at is something else – namely, the watch case. A watch case protects the movement ticking away inside and, of course, gives a watch its shape. Together with the dial, hands, bezel, and bracelet or strap, it gives a watch its overall look and feel.

08/14/2024 4 minutes You’re gonna disagree with this, but here’s how I would build a $24,000 watch collection. You may also ask, wouldn’t a round number like $25,000 make more sense? Yes, but we’re Chrono24, so we had to put our own spin on it. If you look through the Chrono24 Magazine, you’ll see how many of my colleagues tackled this problem. Now it’s my turn. $24,000 is a healthy and not too unrealistic budget to work with.
