The Patek Philippe Cubitus - sharing your thoughts!

[@mbell7498]

The Nautilus reminded me of a television, this one reminds me of a monitor.. Honestly the only Patek watch of that style that I like is the Aquanaut.

[@charles_the_elder]

I like the watch. I personally wouldn't own one, but I like the shape. Thank you for another video.

[@TheWatchBoxDiaries]

Why wouldn't you own one if you don't mind me asking? The shape is different!

[@charles_the_elder]

@@TheWatchBoxDiaries It's not really a sports watch, it's not a dress watch. It's an "I own a Patek Philippe" watch and that's not the kind of watch I want. If I want a square watch, I would get a Tag Heuer Monaco, or a Santos de Cartier. It's a good looking watch, and I appreciate that they are introducing a new line, it's just not a style I would want.

[@funkudu4803]

This is just the watch they needed to attract the rappers and NBA players, those large bezels are precious real-estate for them to ice out 😢. They needed a watch like this from a business perspective, will help attract the younger audience I think.

[@nedflanders3769]

Everyone is dogpiling on the hate for these new watches, which is silly and predictable. I like them, although I can’t currently afford one.

[@TheWatchBoxDiaries]

It's actually been more mixed than I expected! What is it you like about them? Genuinely interested!

[@asura2545]

35mm, different bracelet, different dial texture. Then it’s at least a bad Santos but the Santos is a great design

[@jupiterjames4201]

Looks nothing like that riveted monstrosity, the santos

[@TheWatchBoxDiaries]

I get impression you're not a fan of the Santos? 😂

[@TheWatchBoxDiaries]

Yes! I do agree they could have made it smaller and at least given it a different dial texture to the Nautilus 🤦‍♀️

[@joemyers9893]

Great video Lucy,I don't like that PP,if I had the money I wouldn't buy one,be a ridiculous price too.

[@TheWatchBoxDiaries]

Thank you! Just a quick rant 😂 £35k for an entry level watch is insane but it IS Patek I guess. We can't expect too much from them 😂

[@martinoconnor923]

The Monaco was controversial when first released and not overly successful…… I like the Patek but then I like square watches …. It will obviously sell due to brand but I think longterm it will become a classic …….. wasn’t sure re your channel when I first watched but enjoying your content …….

[@PeterLarsson-b7j]

Im neutral, as much as I love fine watch engineering, Patek dosn't give me I want one vibes. And they way out of reach for me. But I really enjoy your channel, its awsome 😊

[@TheWatchBoxDiaries]

I totally get that. Amazing quality but maybe not that little something special in terms of design? Also yes, they are insanely pricey 😂 Thank you so much! 😊

[@chowda4u]

I would have liked to seen smaller proportions like 34-36mm similar to a Cartier Santos and a different dial texture to seperate it from the Nautilus.

[@TheWatchBoxDiaries]

That would be interesting! I won't how those sizings would be received!🤔 I agree on the dial texture comment actually. A very good spot!

[@RichardKoppinger]

I think it has potential. I'd like to see them reduce the size to something less Invicta-esque. A sports watch needs to be comfortable. I have an eight inch wrist, and I don't find 45mm comfortable. Someone with an average size wrist will struggle to wear this. And apparently, the IBWC can just F off. 😂 As for that small seconds moonphase, that is the Cybertruck of watch dials. So bad.

[@musiclover4311]

I like it very much!

[@TheWatchBoxDiaries]

What is it you like about it? Genuinely intrigued!

[@billcore6295]

And now Patek pays homage to a microbrand….. MAEN Manhattan 39 ultra thin…… a $500 beauty now for $35k with patek written on the dial 😮😮😮😮😮😮

[@mrpollopizza]

I would give the two tone a pass, But that's about it.

[@TheWatchBoxDiaries]

Fair! Do you prefer the green or blue dial?

[@mrpollopizza]

@@TheWatchBoxDiaries Blue, If the whole watch was gold I would rock a green dial.

[@4evalost948]

It's a nice looking watch of I had the money I would buy one why not it's not the worse looking watch out there and if people wait long enough I can see it on ebay selling for way less in a few years .

[@TheWatchBoxDiaries]

You're right, it isn't the worst looking watch. It won't be for everyone though but there are people that will love it. Do you think they'll end up on Ebay?🤔

[@4evalost948]

@@TheWatchBoxDiaries Yeah they are more then likely to end up on Ebay for sure people cant help themselves if they think they can make a buck

[@L.A.C_Santos]

I totally love the green one. More sizes will arrive and that will be great because it is kind of big. But not too big. 45 mm from 10 to 4 is not that big. I love the brutalist design, the wings look fantastic as a magical way to seal the case, it looks great. I do not love the bicolor, but the platinum with complications is a no. The strap is not as good looking as the bracelet. The end link with a strap makes it look weird and too star shaped .

Nice...

[@TheWatchBoxDiaries]

You like it?

[@structurescience]

@@TheWatchBoxDiaries No, sorry, your video was nice. The watch ... well, I've never been a huge Nautilus fan, and this, to me, just looks like a Nautilus variation. Not terrible, not great, not interested. I think if this square variant had come-out first, in the seventies, and then today they released the curvy/Genta Nautilus, then the Genta Nautilus would have been appreciated as an evolution of the Nautilus. And that whole scenario makes this square Nautilus seem like a regression. Which isn't good. But ultimately doesn't bother me, as I'm simply not the audience.

The people who designed this clearly ran from bremont. it’s absolutely awful and it could do that brand who are already releasing a lot of shit covered in diamonds real harm.

[@DarthMalaks_Missing_Lower_Jaw]

Good lord these are ugly. PP is 20 years behind the trends, when most watchmakers are moving toward more reasonable sizes, they come out with this monstrosity.

[@TheWatchBoxDiaries]

😂 I'm totally with you on the sizing comment! I saw a post yesterday with this and a Nautilus (which I wouldn't consider a small watch) side by side and this just looks MASSIVE.

Its not good. Just keep the nautalius going w new variations.

[@khoimavlogs5161]

Steel and Platinum models are not bad but two tone os dog look so shitty.

[@TheWatchBoxDiaries]

😂😂😂

[@WristwatchWorkshop]

I'll probably get called a hater, but for the first new PP line in 25 years it's just disappointing. A less well finished Nautilus movement in a squared off Nautilus case, with a Nautilus bracelet cannot have taken a quarter of a century. It's like 2024 Patek have lazily copied 1979's homework. Will people still buy it because of the name on the dial regardless of it being a bit meh? Absolutely. Will it attract the new, young clientele they're pitching it at? I'm less certain. Then again, I've always preferred VC over PP.

[@ttinnovations3310]
