Just asked for a 5167r and got it in a week, but have bought 3 pateks and many rolex bought as long standing customer. Yet it’s not as easy even for me…

I waited 1.5 year for the 5261R. It's hard to get Aquanaut these days and more so for Nautilus.

I’m becoming more convinced it is this:



I have heard some AD murmur that it has stripes like Nautilus.

But this was pretty convincing to me:



The invitation is the same shape as the above square dial…

Plus it has the name cube in it...so I'm with you here.

I'm convinced it's got a dial that looks like the nautilus and they finally embrace easy removable/swapable straps/bracelets like VC and AP.

I think swapable strap/bracelet is all but certain given TS alluding to it with his “convertible” comments

Cubitus-latest

Or the cube reference is all part of a ruse by Patek. And they are really going to release a watch to go after the Richard Mille market.

How lame would it be for them to re-use the Nautilus dial in a different shape... I'd lose all my remaining confidence in Thierry. Not going to happen.

I thought it would be the nautilus dial in a round case...but in a cube makes sense with that name...

I agree. I, too, would lose my faith (remaining) in Thierry. But I really am becoming more convinced…

If the Cubitus is, in fact, a stainless steel sports line priced like stainless steel Aquanauts, unless it’s stomach-churning ugly, I don’t understand how it could possibly become an “entry point” into the brand. Maybe if it only comes with a quartz movement?

Quartz. That would be both hilarious and horrific.

A quartz Patek with a see through back and visible movement would be the most hilarious watch thing ever…

Agreed. I hadn’t even thought of it until I started writing my post.

Quartz would be such a dud. Who the hell knows. Assuming it’s not, really curious how this positions the aquanaut in terms of pricing, availability, tier, etc.. I assume this is positioned slightly lower than the aquanaut.
