The Patek Philippe Nautilus 5980/1400G-010 is a high-jewelry chronograph that pairs the sporty proportions of the Nautilus with the opulence of factory diamond setting. Its 40.5mm white gold case features a baguette diamond-set bezel, while the matching white gold bracelet is fully paved with brilliant-cut diamonds. The gradient black dial with diamond hour markers adds contrast and retains full chronograph functionality, including the signature mono-counter at 6 o’clock. Hour markers are also baguette-set, tying the dial into the larger gem-setting theme.

This reference is exceptionally rare and was never listed in the public catalog, reserved instead for the brand’s most established clients. The 5980/1400G-010 takes the Nautilus chronograph into ultra-exclusive territory—blending functionality with a level of factory gem-setting craftsmanship rarely applied to sports watches. With only a handful known to exist, it’s become one of the most coveted modern Patek Philippe creations, appreciated for both its technical roots and its elevated, collectible execution.
