Alright, let’s talk about watches. I’ve always been into them, especially the fancy ones, you know? And the Patek Philippe Nautilus? Man, that’s a dream watch for many. The 5713/1 is especially cool – it’s got that white gold and diamonds, and it’s not even made anymore. So, I thought, why not try to get my hands on a remake of this beauty?
First, I started looking around online. It’s not like you can just walk into a store and buy these things. I looked at some online stores, you know, the ones that say they sell “pre-owned” stuff. They had some pictures of the 5713/1, and they looked pretty good. I made a list of them.
Finding Information
- Searched for online sellers.
- Made a list of potential sellers.
Then, I started digging deeper. I wanted to know everything about this watch – the year it was made, the materials, everything. I found out that the original 5713/1 was made around 2009 and it’s got this awesome blue dial with a date function, pretty neat. There are remakes out there, and they are also from 2012. So I needed to decide which way to go.
- Researched the watch’s details: year, materials, features.
- Learned about the original and remade versions.
Making a Decision
I thought to myself, “Okay, what’s important here?” I mean, the real deal is crazy expensive, and I’m not made of money. But I still wanted something that looked and felt good. I read some guides online about buying these remakes, and they said to be careful. You don’t want to get ripped off, right?
- Considered budget and priorities.
- Read guides on buying remakes.
Reaching Out
So, I decided to contact a few of those online sellers. I asked them a bunch of questions: “Is it new or used?” “Do you have the original box and papers?” “Can you send me more pictures?” Stuff like that. Some of them were pretty responsive, and others, not so much. It’s like trying to buy a used car – you gotta be careful.
- Contacted sellers with questions.
- Evaluated their responses.
Waiting and Hoping
Now, it’s a waiting game. I’m waiting for more information from the sellers, comparing their offers, and trying to make the best decision. It’s a bit of a gamble, but I’m excited. I mean, getting a remake of the Patek Philippe Nautilus 5713/1? That would be pretty sweet.
I’ll keep you guys updated on how it goes. Wish me luck!
Keep going!
After a lot of back and forth, I finally pulled the trigger. I found a seller who seemed legit, answered all my questions, and had decent pictures of the watch. The price was right, so I went for it. A few days later, a package arrived. Man, I was nervous opening it. But there it was, a remake of the Patek Philippe Nautilus 5713/1. It looked really good. It has some weight to it, the blue dial shimmers, and the diamonds, well, they sparkle.
I’ve been wearing it for a few weeks now, and I gotta say, I’m happy with it. It’s not the real thing, of course, but it’s a nice piece. It’s a conversation starter, for sure. People notice it. And honestly, it makes me feel good wearing it. It’s like a little piece of luxury on my wrist.
So, that’s my story of getting a remake of the Patek Philippe Nautilus 5713/1. It wasn’t easy, and there were some risks involved, but in the end, it worked out. If you’re thinking about doing something similar, just do your research, be patient, and don’t be afraid to ask questions. And most importantly, enjoy the process!
