The steel Nautilus Patek Philippe introduced for the model's thirtieth anniversary, running the self-winding calibre 324 S C behind a sapphire display back. Over fifteen years it appeared in three main steel dial executions — the -001, the blue -010 and finally the olive green -014 — and became the reference most closely identified with the 2010s surge in demand for steel sports watches. In 2021 Patek Philippe named that year the last for the steel 5711/1A, and the olive green -014 closed the run.

Common questions
When was the Patek Philippe 5711/1A produced?
The 5711/1A was produced from 2006 to 2021.
What movement does the Patek Philippe 5711/1A use?
The Patek Philippe 5711/1A runs the Cal. 324 S C, an automatic movement.
How do I check a Patek Philippe 5711/1A with Watch Safe?
Look up the watch's serial number in the Watch Safe registry to see whether a record exists or a theft flag is attached. A registry search identifies records for a specific serial; it does not authenticate the watch. Authentication is performed in person by an independent expert authenticator, and Watch Safe records and publishes the result.
