Replica Patek Philippe Nautilus 5740/1G
Patek Philippe Nautilus 5740/1G – Perpetual Calendar Super Clone by 3K Factory
Some watches are born from design. Others, from discipline.
The Patek Philippe Nautilus 5740/1G Perpetual Calendar, recreated by 3K Factory, belongs to the rare class of timepieces where design and discipline coexist — quietly, confidently, and flawlessly.
With its silvery white-gold tone, blue-black sunburst dial, and complex mechanical depth, this super clone captures the soul of one of the most revered grand complications in modern horology.
The Philosophy — Precision Without Pretension
The 3K Factory, long regarded as China’s benchmark in high-end super clone craftsmanship, approaches every Nautilus not as a copy, but as a study in proportion and feel.
For the 5740, the team focused on the invisible: the way the perpetual calendar hands align under magnification, the smooth pusher response, and the reflection gradient of the dial’s horizontal brushing.
“We don’t build watches that shout,” said one 3K craftsman.
“We build watches that breathe.”
Every surface is mirror-polished by hand, every calendar wheel adjusted to synchronize seamlessly — just as in the authentic 5740/1G.
Design & Construction — The Sculpture of Time
The Nautilus 5740’s beauty lies in its tension between elegance and complexity.
At first glance, it’s understated — a classic 40 mm case in white-gold-plated stainless steel, paired with a satin-finished integrated bracelet.
Look closer, and you discover the triple-subdial perpetual calendar — displaying the day, date, month, leap year, and moonphase, all mechanically advancing until 2100.
The dark blue-grey dial reflects light like rippling water, complemented by luminous white indexes and white-gold hands.

Collector Feedback — A Quiet Masterpiece
Collectors describe the 3K 5740 as “eerily calm — like a machine that knows its own worth.”
From the weight balance on the wrist to the tactile click of the pushers, everything feels deliberate.
A Hong Kong buyer said:
“It’s a Nautilus that you don’t just wear — you study. Every month, when the calendar advances, you’re reminded that mechanical intelligence still exists.”
Another collector noted that the moonphase disc, with its deep midnight hue and silver-toned stars, “feels almost poetic.”
