The present Patek Philippe Nautilus Ref. 5740/1G is the first example to come to market with a dual signature by Tiffany & Co.

The alliance between Patek Philippe and Tiffany & Co. began in 1851 under the guidance of the companies’ owners, Charles Louis Tiffany and Antoine Norbert de Patek. In 1854, Tiffany & Co. began introducing Patek Philippe watches to the American market, including some of the rarest models. Since then, the relationship flourished, Tiffany being the only name Patek Philippe allowed on the dials of its watches for exceptional occasions.

The present timepiece is a prime example of the longstanding heritage between Patek Philippe and Tiffany. The present ref. 5740/1G is a modern culmination of design and heritage. Between the Gerald Genta case design, the Tiffany Signature, and Patek Philippe’s caliber 240Q, the Ref. 5740/1G is representative of the horological progress made by each respective house/ individual. With humble beginnings, the relationship between Tiffany, Patek Philippe, and Gerald Genta is something etched into the history of modern horology.

The Patek Philippe Reference 5740/1G is the first of the Nautilus family to be included in the Grand Complication family of Patek Philippe. The present timepiece presents a marriage between the iconic case designed by Mr. Genta, and the haute horological craftsmanship that has become synonymous with Patek Philippe watchmaking.

Featuring the ultra-thin caliber 240 Q and an updated fold over clasp mechanism, the Reference 5740/1G is a timepiece that embodies the zeitgeist of modern horology. The heritage between Patek Philippe’s iconic Nautilus and the firm’s masterful craftsmanship come together to create timepiece that is representative of the best and most special parts of Patek Philippe’s contribution to horology.
