The new PPF factory replica of the Patek Philippe Nautilus 5711 features the innovative Cal. 26-330SC movement, marking a significant leap in technology. This latest mechanism serves as the upgrade to the earlier 324 movement, showcasing major advancements.

In the 330SC movement, PPF has integrated all components into a single module, with upgraded parts including the balance wheel, gears, and hairspring. The craftsmanship is exceptional, with all font laser-engraved and bridges adorned with Geneva stripes and fish scale patterns, enhancing the overall aesthetics and luxury feel.

A major alteration in the 330 movement is the redesigned automatic rotor, now featuring a smoother crescent shape. The center axis locking mechanism of the rotor now incorporates a ruby bearing for enhanced safety compared to the previous screw solution.

Crucially, one of the standout technical details of the 330SC movement is the introduction of a functional transmission wheel, transformed from the previous decorative silver wheel to a real gold wheel. This system implements a perfect four-stage acceleration process, stabilizing torque during the gradual acceleration from the mainspring to the transmission, escape wheels, and balance wheel, effectively preventing the second hand from ‘ticking’.

The 330SC movement includes an essential enhancement—the stop-seconds feature. Utilizing a traditional gear system, the movement halts the balance wheel when the crown is pulled out and emits a subtle impulse as the crown is pushed back in, helping to reinstate the escapement module.

This technology breakthrough by PPF reflects their commitment to innovation and quality, making the replica Nautilus 5711 a remarkable timepiece that captures the essence of its genuine counterpart perfectly.
