Here are the essential features of this VIP hidden model Nautilus:
1. Model & Rarity
- Model: Patek Philippe 5711A (Nautilus) with green dial and diamond bezel (“T‑diamond ring”)
- This is a VIP hidden model in the Nautilus series – limited edition, extremely rare in the secondary market, with very high price
2. Diamond Bezel – Setting Quality
- Diamonds are CVD lab‑grown synthetic diamonds (can upgrade to natural diamonds if needed)
- Endless (borderless) inlay process – no gaps between diamonds
- This setting process matches the genuine (“cabinet”)
3. Case – “Beak Shell” (Critical Detail)
- Case developed using CNC original data
- “Beak shell” shape – the middle side of the case resembles a bird’s beak (sharp, three‑dimensional)
- This is the correct version – matches genuine
- The Nautilus is an ultra‑thin watch – thickness only ~8mm
4. Movement Options
| Component | Details |
|---|---|
| Standard (custom) | Non‑regulated (no card) 324 movement – balance wheel has counterweights. This process normally only appears in genuine watches, but achieved through modification. |
| Upgrade (budget permitting) | Original genuine 324 movement |
| Rotor | 18K gold automatic rotor |
| Bridge engravings | Gilded inscription – very, very clear |
5. Polishing & Finishing – “Soft Feel” Quality Check
- A good Nautilus watch has:
- Very delicate brushing (wire drawing)
- Middle bead slightly raised – the polished middle bead complements the brushing
- Feel on wrist: A well‑made watch feels very soft and comfortable
- Inferior watches (Guangzhou goods, letter factories): Feel stiff on the wrist, lack the relaxed feeling
6. Buckle / Clasp
- Calatrava logo – engraving is very, very clear
- Inner engravings: Very clear and deep (CNC shell engraving)
- Inferior versions have very shallow lettering – not the right version
7. Dial, Hands & Calendar (Aftermarket – “Down Parts”)
- Developed based on original data
- Dial: Restores the color and radial line texture of the genuine
- Hands: Central axis effect matches genuine
- Calendar: Square calendar – note: Nautilus has square calendar; AP Royal Oak has circular calendar (each is different)
8. Customization Philosophy
- Modified/customized watches are made according to your needs
- Surface accessories (dial, hands, calendar) are top‑tier aftermarket parts
- Full restoration makes the wearer more confident when wearing

This modified Nautilus targets collectors who want the exclusivity of a diamond‑set Patek Nautilus – a watch that even many wealthy buyers cannot easily obtain. The combination of a green dial (highly sought‑after since the 5711/1A-014 was discontinued), a full diamond bezel with borderless setting, a correctly shaped “beak” case, and a premium non‑regulated clone movement (with genuine 324 upgrade option) places this at the very top of the Nautilus replica market.
Bozwatch’s emphasis on wrist feel (soft vs. stiff) and beak shell sharpness provides two simple but powerful checks that any buyer can perform. The mention of “Guangzhou goods” and “letter factories” as inferior sources is a useful warning. For those who understand that this is a customized replica – not a genuine Patek – and who appreciate the craftsmanship of a well‑set diamond bezel and a correctly shaped case, this watch offers a rare and flashy alternative to standard Nautilus builds. As always, buyers should verify gold purity (if 18K case), diamond quality (CVD vs. natural), and movement authenticity if paying for a genuine 324 upgrade.
Hello everyone, this is Bozwatch.
Every watch is a work of art, a testament to time. I am a fan of them. I also hope that watch enthusiasts can avoid pitfalls on their journey and find their own “Bole” (discerning patron).
According to a fan’s request, he asked me to recommend a Patek Philippe Nautilus watch. This watch is the Patek Philippe 5711A green dial with diamond bezel. It is a VIP hidden model in the Nautilus series – a limited edition that is very rare on the secondary market, and its price is extremely high.
Before we play with this watch, we must first understand it, as usual. Because it is a diamond‑set watch, the diamonds are inlaid on the bezel. These diamonds are currently CVD lab‑grown synthetic diamonds used for setting. If you have special needs, you can also use natural diamonds for the inlay.
The diamonds are set using a borderless (seamless) setting process – see? There are no gaps at all. This setting process can be done to match the genuine – the same as the original.
Like this watch, its case is also made after development using CNC original data. It is a true beak case. The “beak case” means the middle side of the case resembles a bird’s beak – this is a beak case that matches the original version.
The Nautilus is an ultra‑thin watch – its thickness is only about 8 mm. Let me tell you about the movement we chose. It uses a custom‑made free‑sprung (non‑caliber) 324 movement. The balance wheel is equipped with counterweights. This free‑sprung, weightless balance wheel process only appears in genuine watches. But through our modification, customization, and upgrading, we can also achieve the same structure as the original movement.
For the movement, if you have special needs, you can also use an original genuine 324 movement to upgrade it. The rotor is an 18K gold automatic rotor. On the bridges, there are gilded engravings – very, very clear. See?
For this watch, the entire case has been hand‑polished, brushed, and finished. For a Nautilus watch, polishing is very important. A good Nautilus watch has very, very delicate brushing, and the central raised beads are slightly elevated. See? The brushing on the side and the polished central bead complement each other.
Including the buckle – you can see the Calatrava logo. The engraving is very, very clear. When you wear a watch like this on your wrist, it feels very soft and comfortable. But some lower‑quality versions – like certain Guangzhou goods or “letter factories” – their watches feel stiff on the wrist. They don’t have that relaxed, comfortable feel. Do you understand? When you are choosing, you must carefully distinguish.
The edges have been rounded and chamfered – when you touch them, you almost never feel any sharpness. When we open the buckle, there are some engravings inside. Let me show you. These are engravings from a CNC case – very clear and very deep. But those from Guangzhou or letter factories have very shallow lettering – that’s not the correct version.
For this kind of modified and customized watch, everything can be tailored to your needs. The surface accessories – such as the dial, hands, and date wheel – are all developed based on original data. These aftermarket parts can faithfully restore the original color and the texture of the sunburst radial lines. The central axis effect can also be made to match the genuine.
Including the date wheel – have you noticed it is a square date window? Most Nautilus models – like the blue Nautilus or the white Aquanaut – have circular date windows. In fact, each model is different. Based on customization and upgrading, and made according to original data, it can be fully restored. This gives you more confidence when wearing it.
This is a simple watch sharing of the PP 5711A with a diamond bezel and green dial – a simple watch sharing. When you play with this watch, you must understand it clearly before you buy it.
