Thank you for your answers, do you know if the 5726 have a real moonphase? or is a day/nght moon?
(they are beautiful anyway)

Just got mine from Pure Time.
Small Review:
Pros=
1) Very good overall feeling from the stainless steel polishing. Bracelet feels like a refinished one.
2) Wining feeling is gen like. With other replicas, manual winding has a cheap feeling. With this model winding is smooth but "solid". is hard to describe, but it gives a great feeling.
3) Complications for this price are a step in the right direction.
Cons=
1) Dial colour is very blue-grey. Quite far from genuine.
2) Dial error with different shape near "Geneve" in quite obvious
3) Clasp is a bit sharp (compared to bracelet)
4) The pushing button of the day of the week gave some issues at the begining (but is now working smooth at 6 in the morning)

Was reading and the patek site says:
A new blue dial shading to black for the steel version
The steel Nautilus, endowed with an Annual Calendar and moon-phase display, now features a new blue dial inspired from the dial color of the original Nautilus model of 1976. Horizontal embossing and subtle grading from blue to black at the dial’s periphery create a powerful yet refined aesthetic that perfectly complements the sheen of the metal.
This is the original 3700 color
Looks pretty close to our dial. I dont see much green.
I also get it, its a photo and they are not always color accurate. My point is I think there are different versions of blue for the 5726

Well depends if you base your dial colour info on the PP marketing pictures which are all photoshopped. IRL the 5726 blue is quite dark (I have held two gens) and nothing like the online pictures (easy to spot as they are ALL set on the same 18th March)
Here is a gen from ch24
Dial colour is pretty similar

I am not confident the latest version of the dial is the same as the 5711 or 5712 greenish blue. Feels like it's a different blue color entirely.
That said, the old standard applies of:
1) We will most likely never encounter one in the wild
2) If your lifestyle does not match, then even a gen won't be perceived of as legitimate
I really like the watch and if they fix the dial bars for GENEVE, I will hastily order the white to accompany my current blue

I had the same though (dial with different blue) but I'm not sure.
On patek site, ALL the blue Nautilus appear the same blue (without the turquoise shade of blue-green).
In picture on the net, in many pictures, 5726 appears with the blue-green shading...
not to sure.
As said nobody will ever believe my 5726 is real (or, if real, that one would use in everyday life as we are speaking about a 160.000€ watch) but this no even the point.
This is a nice product, movement, brushing and dial quality is great.
Maybe is a mater of tastes, but the lacking of the correct colour is a huge turn-off for me.

To save me reading the whole thread, can anyone tell me how many people have bought the gen dial, and the cost? Here's a used one at Ch24 for £2,496 https://www.chrono24.co.uk/patekphi...ifferblatt-fuer-nautilus-5726--id19271157.htm I'm surprised that these dials are so easy to buy...doesn't Patek try to control them so they don't end up on reps, which might be mis-sold? Sorry if these are boring questions which have been done too many times, I'm new to this subject.
Mine has developed new problems. Now the AM/PM indicator AND the moon disc are stuck and do not move even if you push the button. Only after a few weeks, disappointing
I guess a service would fix it

Back from service from @ado123 and the difference is amazing. Smooth winding, all pushers are a joy to operate and the watch is super quiet. I m very happy

Excellent news, long may your watch last! Are you one of the guys who bought a gen dial?

Grey dial? Looks grayish blueish
Blue but it really depends how the light hits the dial. Goes from greyish to blue. But is not always obvious it is blue

I have a bunch of Pateks inbound
-3kF 40th, Tiffany
-5712
Arrived
5726 white
5711 peggy
Currently havent had any issues with my 5726. I must say this is a great all arounder.. I feel like my journey of tastes have taken me all over the place, currently being in patek.
Havent had any issues with my white one so far, debating whether or not to get a blue one as well?? Great having these complications.. I have had the chronograph , but at the end of the day, rarely use it. Having calendar is useful for me, and having moon phase is like having a slow changing wallpaper.
I have OCD, i opened it over a dozen times, trying to wipe out any dust, but each time, keep opening it. Luckily its still waterproof.
Currently unexpectedly one of my favorites. Perhaps the blue 5712 will scratch the itch and i wont need a blue 5726? I am just thinking the 5726 would be more reliable, but not sure, each has its own reason for failure.

On a new note, i love checking the patek website and making sure my moon phase is perfectly set. Happy full moon day!!!

Really this white 5726… might scratch that itch in 2022 or maybe the AP ceramic calendar
