^^ Unfortunately, I don't think a Patek Philippe super rep exists. Especially when it comes to movements. Patek is well known for the watch being elegantly thin, and the rep factory that decides to decorate the movement usually compromises the thickness and makes it thicker which changes the whole dimension of the rep. But there have been few pieces with an officer case back. Such as the 5227s in my collection. I bought it undecorated, it has the back case so the dimensions are much closer to gen. But the dial color unfortunately is too white, where the gen is more ivory.

To sum up, super reps don't exist for the Patek Philippe reps.

That's my opinion.

Is the 40mm 5975 with closed caseback the nest chance for a Patek super replica (in the future)?

^^ I truly don't think so.. it has flaws, the wrong spelling on the dial that I had to fix, the quality doesn't feel over all like a "super rep". don't get me wrong it's a great looking watch, but it doesn't have the super rep factor when you handle it.. but it definitely looks stunning on the wrist if you fix the miss print on the dial..

I have a whole thread about it on the PP section ;)

The 5711R with rose gold comes with grey dial not Brown..

It's the SW200 version. But to get the PP gen strap , you have to look in eBay. Also note you need to modify the end links, the gen PP strap will not fit directly

Great collection!

What do you think of the 5227 for super rep, or at least NWBIG?

Also, not sure from the pic...is that gen strap glossy? I thought most high end watches have matte straps.

After allot of demand from members here, I just updated this post that I posted in 2016 with all my collection up to date.. enjoy

Amazing reps. It adds so much value replacing the rep straps with something more substantial - well done! These all pop.

Can you tell me spec of NAUTILUS sss WHITE DIAL 5711?

The white dial is a modded rep.. BP V.1 with MKF dial and hands. now it is with the modder getting a movement service, a date wheel mod, rebrushing, and shaving of case to make it even thinner.

channeh many thanks for your kind words
