The movement inside This reference is built with either calibre. The choice changes the price, the rate and the reserve — nothing else about the watch.
| Base | Seiko NH35 or Miyota 8215, automatic | Swiss clone of the maison's own calibre |
|---|---|---|
| Rate | ±15 to 25 seconds a day | ±5 to 10 seconds a day |
| Reserve | About 40 hours | 55 to 70 hours |
| Balance | 21,600 A/h · six beats a second | 28,800 A/h · eight beats a second |
| Servicing | Any watchmaker can service it; parts are everywhere | Serviced by a specialist; finished as the original is |
| Suited to | Wearing daily, keeping simply, spending less | Matching the reference exactly, and glass casebacks |
The Swiss movement is $50 more. That figure buys the rate, the reserve and a movement that reads correctly through a glass back — not a different watch.
Which we would take. If it is to be worn every day and serviced down the road from you, the Japanese is the honest answer. If it has to survive a loupe against the reference — or the caseback is glass and the movement is meant to be seen — take the Swiss.
The exact base calibre for this reference is confirmed in writing, with the QC film, before anything is dispatched. The two movements, explained
- QC film before ship
- 2-year warranty
- Discreet insured express
Add to cart, enter your ship-to details, then pay with crypto — or message the desk. Either way you get a QC film of this piece: reply GL to ship or RL for another. Japanese +$50 · Swiss +$100.

Description
innovative and avant-garde spirit, together with the Patek Philippe 5980 collection, marks a comeback. Since the market-leading Integrated Movement Nautilus established PPF's avant-garde watchmaking path, PPF is once again making waves with the Patek Philippe 5980 collection!
With a case diameter of 40.5mm, this is the perfect size for comfortable wear. The iconic Nautilus stainless steel case is exquisitely polished with a brushed finish on the front.
The elegant dial, inspired by the colors of the first Patek Philippe Nautilus dial, boasts a richer palette. The single-counter chronograph at 6 o'clock is essentially like having another watch inside a watch. Reading elapsed time couldn't be simpler, as the hours and minutes are calculated in a 12-hour register. The date hole at 3 o'clock completes the dial's design.
PPF's in-house Patek Philippe chronograph movement CH 28-520 comprises 327 specially finished parts, 35 jewels, and 13 bridges. The movement provides an exceptionally long power reserve when fully wound and beating at a frequency of 28,800 vph, its mechanical beauty showcased through the sapphire exhibition case back.
The strap bracelet boasts a perfectly robust construction with alternating satin-brushed and mirror-polished finishes. A pure visual treat, it's exceptionally comfortable to wear and features a Nautilus folding double clasp with a hooked cover lock for added security.
PPF is back with sincerity and surprises, once again setting off a wave of cutting-edge replicas!
