The Patek Philippe Nautilus Haute Joaillerie Models Are The Ultimate Timepieces For The Holidays

A few weeks ago, Patek Philippe dropped a new line of rather blinged-out Nautilus and Aquanuauts to send a clear message to round out 2023: more is, well, more. As the holidays near, we’re deeming the three new Nautilus Haute Joaillerie models as the ultimate holiday wrist candy as the models are adorned with the exquisite “snow” setting. A trio of holiday hues, these timepieces seamlessly blend the brilliance of diamonds with the rich hues of blue sapphires, fiery rubies, or vibrant emeralds — making them the most festive of them all.

Patek Philippe’s horological mastery meets the enchantment of gemsetting in the 7118/1452G Nautilus Haute Joaillerie, as the white gold masterpiece is adorned with an array of 1,500 brilliant-cut diamonds, totaling 6.53 carats, and 876 rubies, with a combined weight of 6.58 carats. The snow-setting technique, known for its unparalleled brilliance, brings a radiant glow to every facet of this watch.

The dial, set with rows of brilliant-cut diamonds in the iconic wave motif, adds an intentional design giving the watch a flow of movement. Beneath the surface, the self-winding 26-330 S caliber ensures precision and performance, while the patented Patek Philippe fold-over clasp secures the exquisite bracelet with four independent catches.

The snow-set case, bezel, and bracelet create a dazzling ensemble, while the emerald-set bezel and inner links of the bracelet accentuate the Nautilus’s iconic geometry. The white gold dial also is crafted with rows of brilliant-cut diamonds set in the signature wave pattern.

Powered by the self-winding 26-330 S caliber, the watch not only exudes elegance but also boasts impeccable performance. And to complete the watch, the patented Patek Philippe fold-over clasp ensures a secure and comfortable fit.

Powering this masterpiece is the self-winding 26-330 S caliber, visible through a transparent sapphire case-back, ensuring both precision and reliability.
