Patek Philippe 5711/1A-010 stainless steel blue plate replica watch discontinued
According to Hodinkee news, speculation about the discontinuation of the Nautilus 5711/1A-010 stainless steel blue plate watch has been confirmed by Patek Philippe headquarters. Patek Philippe President Terry Stern once said frankly in a conversation that stainless steel may become the definition of the brand, “I must strictly control the production of stainless steel watches. I don’t want stainless steel replica watches to dominate the entire series.”
In recent years, the stainless steel sports luxury watch market has boomed. Popular watches such as replica Patek Philippe Nautilus 5711/1A, Audemars Piguet Royal Oak and Rolex Submariner are in short supply. There are rumors that the waiting list of Patek Philippe Nautilus 5711/1A has been waiting for ten years. At present, only 30% of Patek Philippe’s annual production watches are made of stainless steel. In terms of brand status and scarce output, Patek Philippe steel watches can be described as an out-and-out luxury.
Patek Philippe is an independent family watchmaking company, and the helm focuses on maintaining the long-term development of the brand. Terry Stern may be able to follow the market trend and increase the production of stainless steel watches to profit from it, but this is not the right decision for a brand with a long history of 182 years.
