Finally got my 5726..NWA

Thanks for all the support and help into deciding which nautilus to be added in my collection .

Managed to find the right deal from grey and pulled the trigger . All of this documented by a dear friend of mine ( The dubai expat).

5712 was the main competitor but did choose 5726 eventually !

If you are interested into watching the experience its in the below link

I would say the significance of the annual calendar the complication to patek mixed with the iconic design of genta.

Also the hue of the blue is much more better imo .. however the thickness of the 5712 was really intriguing .

Congratulations.

The video states you have an AD spend history of $500K and yet you had to go grey for the 5726A. What does the AD require for an allocation of a Nautilus? I imagine the competition is exceptional in Dubai but is must be quite frustrating you had to take the grey route.

Hey... yes indeed maybe a bit more too

for FPJ in Dubai there is no chance whatsoever. they clearly said no chance.
for Patek Aqua/Nautilus the AD told me clearly maybe after my 7th- 8th patek maybe an aquanaut can come into picture ! which doesn't make sense.

Even AP boutique , they would require 7 watches before Jumbo .

Unfornatelly , that's how Dubai is currently. and its more cheaper to go grail and save the hustle !
