2024 Watches & Wonders Patek Philippe Predictions - Is a Patek Dive Watch Coming?

The 2024 Patek Philippe watches will be here in just weeks! As Watches & Wonders approaches, Tim Mosso speculates about what kind of 2024 watches Thierry Stern will unveil at the biggest luxury watch show of the year. With no history of dive watches, Patek Philippe may break new ground if it decides to launch a diving model this year. As for the Nautilus, a new metal such as steel or rose gold or new dials colors might be coming soon. Discuss luxury watches from Patek Philippe tonight on "Watches Tonight!" While Patek Philippe has never built a diving watch, the brand has proved willing to experiment, and this is particularly true with the Patek Philippe Aquanaut collection. Launched in 1997 with the company's first rubber strap, the Aquanaut has grown to include travel time watches, Advanced Research experimental models, chronographs, and even minute repeaters. Will the Patek Philippe Aquanaut also become a dive watch? Tim sorts the growing prestige of divers and the likelihood that such a watch might find a home at Patek. Regarding the Patek Philippe 5811, the newest Nautilus may be due for a few changes. With no updates over its first two model years, the successor to the Nautilus 5711 might be ripe for a new variant in 2024. Possibilities include a stainless steel case (less likely) or a rose gold model (more likely). Patek has previously proved willing to combine white gold and rose gold (e.g. 5712GR) in a notably opulent application of the two-tone look. S
