Now available, a Patek Philippe Nautilus Travel Time Chronograph reference 5990/1A-011 in stainless steel.

Few modern Patek Philippe references combine practicality, technical brilliance and everyday wearability quite like the 5990. Bringing together a flyback chronograph, Travel Time functionality and date display within the iconic Nautilus case, it represents one of the manufacture's most accomplished contemporary sports watches. Despite the sheer amount of information displayed, the dial remains wonderfully balanced and remarkably intuitive, a testament to Patek Philippe's ability to package genuine complication without ever compromising elegance.

This particular reference 5990/1A-011 represents the second production variant of the stainless steel 5990, replacing the original grey dial with a beautiful sunburst blue-grey dial featuring a subtle black-gradient rim. Depending on the light, the dial shifts effortlessly between slate grey and soft blue, providing the perfect canvas for its white gold applied hour markers, rounded local-time hand and skeletonised home-time hand. It is a subtle evolution, yet one that gives the watch an entirely different personality and has become a firm favourite amongst collectors.

Offered here is an outstanding 2026 example, presented unworn, unsized and retaining its original factory stickers within the clasp, and accompanied by its entirety of accessories from new. Whether crossing continents or simply worn every day, the 5990 remains one of the definitive modern Nautilus references. Combining genuine everyday usability with one of the finest automatic sports watch movements Patek Philippe has ever produced, it is easy to understand why demand for the reference continues to be so strong. The watch is available for viewing in London and purchase worldwide. Please get in touch for further information.
