I feel this watch really suits rose gold, from those QCs. Never seen one in the wild though

This is really exciting. It's about time someone come up with a Patek three hander. The date font looks a tad bit thin, but I'm totally okay with that. Just hope the actual watch doesn't have smudges on those dauphine hands and hour markers.

Now a more concerning question is - is it gen thickness as well? Strange no one really brought that one up, or did I miss it in the past 8 pages?

Yes it the same thickness as gen. 38 lug to lug and 8 mm thickness !! 8 mm thickness !The 5296 is supposed to be the quintessential dress watch.
I have the same comment about the date thing , I feel it’s a bit thinner but nothing to complain about at all and to be completely honest I am not sure that there is a difference in the date font or not.

here is second QC to check the alignment of the markers from the exact frontal position and with single digits date To check from centralization

Thnsks for the info! To be fair i think that 1mm at sub 10mm thickness will make it a different watch from the gen. But doesnt stop the fact that it is still a killer proportion for a dress watch.

The ZF is 9,4 including domed crystal. Do anyone know the heigth of gen including crystal? Or someone can measure case thickness on ZF?

edit: I mixed up the pics. Offical site hase not specified case thickness. Still some manufacturers do not include crystal in height.

Yeah it’s pretty great rep. Too bad I have so many reps on my list, unfortunately Calatrava is not on top of my list.
Id love to see ZF Nautilus. I have weird feeling they are working on it as we speak.

Now that I want to see myself.

According to my sources, ZF won’t release anything else including the rumoured Nautilus until next year.

If V6F is working on clone movement, and ZF separately, next year can be the year we have a rep that comes close to NWBIG for Nautilus.
