Total speculation on my part but I'm assuming Thierry prepping his kids with the cubitus launch. Guessing that's going to be their baby. Need to keep the regular releases a bit boring to keep the focus on the new line.

Sorry as I’m out of the loop. Has this officially been confirmed? The name is comical (sounds like a sort of medical disorder with the “itus”.

Sounds like an inflammation you should get checked out

The last 5 years at Patek have been creatively bankrupt. The last interesting watch they made was the 5212 and that was in 2019.

If there’s no release it will be Cubitus Interruptus for Thierry.

Agree 100% with this. is the 'Cubitus' name actually confirmed? If so, they're really trying to outdo Code 11:59 for comic value.

It's exactly what I did in this exact order: 5167A at retail price, 5960/1A at retail price, 5712/1A at retail price and 5270P-014 at retail price. However, and it was confirmed by PP Paris, this is almost impossible to do nowadays because if you want an Aquanaut/Nautilus you must at least have two or one (if you go straight to grand complication) purchase before even thinking about getting one sport watch. And not to be able to do that again is "not right". Doesn't make any sense in the end. |

Honestly it seems like their goal is to ramp up the price point of “entry” pieces and target new customers who are aware of the brand and willing to pay without question regardless of real innovation or quality. Just to have the logo on the watch.
I don’t think they are so concerned about keeping the current collectors or what long term customers feel about recent releases. There will always be new young wealthy customers who are willing to try make a relationship and pay whatever the asking is for whatever piece they do release. It’s disappointing but for me many of the best watches from Patek have come and gone and are long discontinued. The good news is these watches are stunning, produced in small numbers with greater traditional techniques and many are a steal by comparison. Happily you also don’t have to deal with all the AD bs we have to tolerate these days! |

The blue dial 5980 looks rather interesting.

A few more hours to the W&W opening.
Hopefully I'm the first name on the 5164G waitlist. I have never wanted an Aquanaut so badly. The blue 5980G is so cool. |

I would gladly take any of the four blue-themed pateks. The 5980G and 5164G are specially gorgeous. And so is the 5396 and 5330.
Assuming these leaks are real, I am significantly more enthusiastic about this release than last year's. |

Wow this release is the definition of “uninspired” for me.
