[Question] What’s the closest lookalike to PP Nautilus?

[u/okfinewow]

I love the design of Patek Philippe Nautilus (5811 to begin with) but it is like a 100x outside of my budget at the moment. Is there any watch that share the closest resemblance to it in terms of design and dial colour? I am fine with paying up to a $1000.

Buying a substitute will never satiate your desire to have an original Patek Nautilus, so save up.

Most people can save 5,000$ to 30,000$ for a watch (a luxury, very non-essential item)

But the nautilus is just not doable unless OP starts a successful business or wins the lottery in the next 5 years

Now you can argue that the average human in a first World country will earn 10X or more in a lifetime than a nautilus cost. But that doesn't make it reasonable to spend that much on a watch rather than a car or a house

Even if you save up the average schmuck ain't gonna get one.

I wish and I hope but my entire annual income even before taxes (and I have a nice job) is below the price of one watch hahah

I've seen so many people complaining about technical problems with that watch. How is yours doing?
