Casual by design, the Patek Philippe Nautilus 5980/60G Flyback Chronograph super clone runs blue from its embossed dial to its stitched strap, with a white gold look case in between. This Nautilus 5980/60G-001 replica delivers a flyback chronograph in a 40.5mm case with a white gold look, a blue-grey opaline dial and a strap patterned like denim. The 5980 series brought the flyback chronograph to the Nautilus, and the 60G version swaps the integrated bracelet for that denim-look strap. At 40.5mm, it sits noticeably larger than the standard 40mm time-only references. Our notes on the blue-grey opaline Nautilus chronograph dial show how its gradient should sit around the monocounter. The steel version with the blue-black dial is our Patek Philippe 5980 replica on the integrated bracelet.

Flyback in One Press

Flyback functionality means the chronograph hand can be reset and restarted in a single pusher press. Standard chronographs require three separate actions. This distinction matters for timing consecutive events.

Flyback Timing on Clone Cal. CH 28-520

The 5980 houses the CH 28-520 C caliber in genuine form, one of the more complex movements in the Nautilus catalog. The flyback mechanism adds significant parts count compared to the time-only 324 SC found in standard references. This replica carries a clone Cal. CH 28-520 with the flyback reset and monocounter layout of the original. The 40.5mm case accommodates this larger movement while keeping the Nautilus case proportions intact. Within the Nautilus lineup, the 5980 leads the chronograph side of the mechanical hierarchy. If perpetual calendar complications interest you more than chronograph functions, the rose gold tone 5740-style perpetual calendar trades elapsed-time measurement for astronomical tracking in a thinner 40mm case.

A Denim-Look Strap on a White Gold Chronograph

White gold Nautilus chronographs occupy a narrow niche. Most 5980 variants appear in steel, rose gold or two-tone configurations, making the 60G-001 in white gold less common in the broader lineup. The blue-grey opaline dial adds visual depth through subtle colour variation, and the denim-look strap picks up the same blue. This 5980/60G replica puts the Nautilus flyback chronograph in a white gold look package that few other references match.
