"Look at my drawing, it's a beautiful drawing, because I'm a real artist, and if the others don't like my drawing, then they are stupid, because I'm the best artist" - Thierry Stern.
Perhaps the CEO said these inflammatory words to get everyone talking... "The only thing worse than being talked about is not being talked about" -Lady Bracknell
They should have designed a new dial for this from scratch, instead of just using the Nautilus dial. Is there a quick adjustment feature in the clasp? I don't think so. But he's right. I've never owned a Patek and I never will.
He's probably not wrong most of the haters by numbers probably never have had a Patek. Looking at the price and what the new watch looks like probably will continue to not have a Patek either lol. I can afford one but if I was going to buy a square watch I'd get a Cartier over that, especially at that price point for what your getting.
I'm here for Seiko lol Also Stern is clearly rattled and his outburst was embarrassing. Patek is too big a brand to act so childishly. A real Patek CEO wouldn't even acknowledge the criticism.
I love the watch. I don’t like the complicated version but never liked the complicated nautilus either. I love the green one and looking forward do the small size and new colors.
He has probably shown it to the brand insider fans and has enough orders to last a decade. Agree it lacks imagination. Most wealthy are however conservative, they all like the same anthracite Porsche Cayenne. Nobody wants a purple Bentley. Its the same with their watches.
Corpulent, cloistered and complacent, Patek are releasing ugly miss after ugly miss. 'Don't want to get a designer onboard..' 'TF? Didn't got too wrong with Genta, did it? Patek's tradition is classical beauty and fine handicrafts incorporated with supreme skill in impeccable, understated watches. Watches that the next generation might actually want. Can you imagine inheriting one of these monstrous baubles? Cheers Dad. PX'd for a Rollie, pronto presto. I can certainly tell that crude, obnoxious man that this Patek fan and owner is horrified by the direction he's dragging his company in and increasingly worried for the future of it. Proper fit of the vapours and no mistake.
I really wish he didn't say those things about the haters. He can think it but to say it doesn't help him and the many who have invested untold blood, sweat, and tears to hold a timepiece that represents so much more than the individual labor and love that went into them. The only road here, is the high road.
They came up with a square Nautilus, a terrible name, a round movement in a square case, has a maximum PR of 45 h and starts at an astonishingly high price. Just a joke really and shows that this guy would have failed in life had he not been been born into this family. Imagine what you could come up with having PP resources and just a tiny bit of imagination.
Spoiled Nepo Baby - no surprise he’s so arrogant. It’s not just people who can’t afford them. Plenty of veterans of the watch industry are not impressed. And $40k is hardly going to pull many young people in.
If I would be in the market for a luxury timepiece this statement alone would make me want to look for other options. If you’re that arrogant it’s only a matter of time until you fall off your high horse- especially with the growing competition in this price segment.
I think the Cubitus makes complete sense when you consider the target demographic Patek are aiming for. This was was designed for a new younger generation of watch buyers. These people have only known Apple Watches and their 45mm squared screen. This watch has the shape and dimensions that they are used to. Patek dealers have been told to prioritise young first time Patek buyers with this range. It was never for the regular Patek crowd. This was about luring a digital generation back to analogue and ensuring long term profitablity for Patek. The fact that their first new line in 25 years is entry level tells you who they are meant for.
@@montys8th perhaps. But the younger crowd tends to be focused on buying a home. Getting married and starting the family.(debatable from some reports), starting a portfolio, etc. Not dropping 40k on a square green watch.
'I don't work with external designers either. We've done that, but it never worked' 🧐Umm Nautilus wasn't externally designed?!? / One of the most successful watches they produce
And so was the ref 96 that really kicked things off again for Patek. He seems to believe just copy-pasting and photoshopping bits of the heritage is designing
He knows what he is doing, yes he sounds arrogant and probably is but he knows his client base and the Nautillus is a popular design , people don't always like a complete change so he has just stayed in the safe zone and knows they will sell to existing customers and their associates and social circles . His statement refers to customers who have bought from his boutiques and ones who have not do not concern him . I'm guessing
I keep saying this but we need to reevaluate the ability of many of these watch companies. Especially the ones that only give us new colors of old stock and remakes of current models. We are spending our money.... tons of it. They need to start earning* our loyalty. Not a fan of this model at all.
At first he described the watch as a model for people who are trying to get into the brand. Then he said the haters are people who have never owned one. That pretty much describes a failure.
Totally, that Seiko as a Patek would be super cool! At the end of the day, the Cubitus is a whim of Stern, that a Saudi Prince will buy with his coffee money.
Seems to be that Thierry' s remarks are almost as well received as the Cubitus. Thierry earned his position in Patek just as Justin Trudeau earned his as Canada's Prime Minister ( The benefits of being part of a recognized family). Could it be that Cubitus came about through short cuts, as much as Thierry gaining his position from daddy?
Interesting you included that new Seiko at the end after talking about the new Patek Cubitus. I was thinking somewhat similarly. I don't like this new Seiko, it just does not have an appealing look. Also, makes me think will there be a trend to make indecisive case shape/details designs? I hope not.
It's painfully obvious that it's a fraternal twin. It's not a new design, anybody can see that. It's a subtle shape change at best. Heck, even the dial is the same. They could have gone square (unique design), new square movement, and people would have gone bananas. I know the Code 11:59 took a couple years to get it's footing, but outside of the watch world (and now even within) it's taken off because it's accessible (or at least it was). This is just lazy, plain and simple. The time and effort put into this could have been used to increase production, but this was just a waste. I really think they could have come up with a generational piece, but instead we get another Nautilus.
I don't understand what's the hate about round movements in square watches? Santos also has a round movement, so does Vacheron American 1921. I don't get it. By the way, Vacheron American 1921 is the best square watch ever made.
Thierry Stern opens his mouth, and Patek loses fans, existing customers, and potential customers. You never expect to see one model release burn a brand so badly, but here we are with the CEO putting on a case study on how not to handle a botched launch. 👀
As CEO, Thierry Stern, is responsible for the direction of the brand, the new products, but also be the no 1 ambassador and face of Patek. Is he really up for it? Time will tell…
I'm sure a lot of yes ppl around Stern, ultimate decision was prob his on size at inception. And sure there were ppl who said too big, but when pride is greater than valor you can see the remarks from S, this hit a sensitive spot. Besides it's a knock off of the original Nautilus, Santos, Seiko, or any other square watch u care to name. Shame to see how these decisions are made, code 11 too. Henry's pride bigger than his Mont Blanc knock off.
I'm not a Patek person, but it is hard to understand the direction they're going... 1.) Taking the most beautiful dress watch and making it into a white gold feild watch. 2.) Putting your dad's face on a watch... 3.) Tire tread Calatravas... 4.) A huge square that costs more than a 6119...
@@liquid_metal The Aquanaut Travel Time, for example, suddenly went from 120m of water resistance, down to just 30m. When a manufacturer DOWNGRADES an existing watch’s water resistance rating without warning, and you defend such an absurd move, perhaps you are the clown?
@@MichaelGazeley I don't care either way, evidently those buying these watches don't care otherwise they wouldn't be selling for such a massive premium. Fact is, these are not tool watches nor are they intended for diving or even swimming. They are statement pieces and there for status, not to be used in a "GADA" way - for that, you have your G Shock or Apple Watch.
So I buy a watch rated at 120m, then suddenly the manufacture announces it’s suddenly only rated at 30m, but that’s fine because YOU don’t care about it? Well, I do. No one ever said these are ‘tool watches,’ but water resistance is important, and I certainly swim wearing any of my 100m+ watches.
what's most hilarious is that the Seikos also feature the famous teak-deck dial- definitely Patek inspired! Too bad Omega no longer features it on the Aqua Terra!
I found it interesting that Thierry makes the "AP only have RO but it's very difficult for them because they don't have much else". Difficult for them? AP sales have passed Patek in recent years, and seem in a better place in the market than PP. The "luxury sports" market seems very strong, and PP has basically handed AP the leadership role in this category by not developing the alternative to RO. This hands AP the future opportunity on a silver platter.
He doesn't care what anyone thinks, said it out loud, and the collection sold out immediately so no one can buy it even if they wanted to. Big deal. Everyone on the internet has an opinion about something they've never seen or experiences in real life. I don't mind the watch personally, the only pragmatic issue I would have is that for me personally it's too big (a Monaco is 39mm I think and already too big, this Patek is a full 5mm larger which is a lot), I would prefer it smaller, say 36mm, but even then it's a purely hypothetical conversation as it's not my price point. It's a bold statement watch and they will evolve it over time I am sure into something more neutral.
Well, they had to stop making Nautilus to make this Cubitus thing it's not worth it, and I don't even like the Nautilus, I only like the original size Aquanaut. And God, why didn't the just something like making the Aquanaut cleaner, or rounder, or a Diver with a special new bezel?
I don’t mind the look of the green one. It’s not great but it’s not terrible either. Cubitus is the Latin medical name for the largest bone in your forearm. An unsurprising point of view from such a ceo. Covid made them feel like a golden god. May as well be head of LVMH. I prefer a larger watch. The tiny watch trend is not for me.
Sorry the new Patek look bad. And I worked for Patek in Plan les Ouates for many years. Of course lots of people will love it because it's the last one. But changing the shape of the Nautilus. And say it's a new model is a fucking joke. Will see in the future😅
I mean hes right in my case; I have never had a patek and never will most likely. I dont hate but I dont think its a meaningful release. its fine as a standalone watch but as a atek, its not the best release lets say.
I understand Stern perfectly and í´m fond of him as he shows emotions. This is the honest acting of a real company owner who is not by nature a bla bla diplomat. Congratulations also once again for the Cubitus.
This is literally bla bla diplomacy statement though. Obviously its made to reassure his customers that already own Pateks that it's absolutely worth it to add the Cubitus to their collection. They hate the haters as the haters are making too much sense.
He doesn't sound tired or stressed. He sounds intelligent and confident. The market is not in a crisis. The market is in a correction, from the biggest bubble in its history. He knows this. Onward and upward, Patek.
The response Stern gave is quite amazing, really shows the true colors of current Patek management.
They had it too good during covid
Snobbery is 100% their appeal. It's their whole marketing strategy.
Some CEOs do not have enough resources to make more popular models, but have lots of resources to produce crapituses.
I like the case shape but putting a round mechanism in a square case is a shortcut no questions asked.
but you cant make an automatic round, and what do you think is in the nautilius and aquanaut
"Look at my drawing, it's a beautiful drawing, because I'm a real artist, and if the others don't like my drawing, then they are stupid, because I'm the best artist" - Thierry Stern.
The Santos is so good nowadays it’s hard to pick this Santos-knockoff over it. This makes the skeleton Santos seem like a bargain
only blind fanboys would buy this "homage" over the original ... hahha ...
💯 - the Cartier team must have hurt themselves laughing when they saw this.
Kudos to the interviewer for really pushing back on Thierry's BS answers. The so called "watch journalists" could learn a thing or two.
Many of these watch journalists or media outlets have financial incentives to suck off watch brands. Getting dibs on review samples being one of them.
I find this Patek Cubitus absolutely unimaginative.
If it will sale? Of course it will.
Yes. To men who think buying one will move them up the list to get a Nautilus or Aquanaut.
It won’t sell.
He's not just the CEO. He's also the owner. That makes a big difference. 🎉
Perhaps the CEO said these inflammatory words to get everyone talking...
"The only thing worse than being talked about is not being talked about" -Lady Bracknell
He is very correct, after this bumble, most people won’t want to buy a Patek……
I've seen companies burn to the ground because of this level of arrogance.
They should have designed a new dial for this from scratch, instead of just using the Nautilus dial. Is there a quick adjustment feature in the clasp? I don't think so. But he's right. I've never owned a Patek and I never will.
There is indeed a quick adjustment.
"You never actually own a Stern. You merely look after him for the next (lousy?) generation".
There, fixxed it for y'all... LOL
He's probably not wrong most of the haters by numbers probably never have had a Patek. Looking at the price and what the new watch looks like probably will continue to not have a Patek either lol. I can afford one but if I was going to buy a square watch I'd get a Cartier over that, especially at that price point for what your getting.
Of course they said to him it will work well. It’s a hierarchy and they are paid by him. Probably no one had the balls to speak out.
The Emperor has no clothes.
I'm here for Seiko lol
Also Stern is clearly rattled and his outburst was embarrassing. Patek is too big a brand to act so childishly. A real Patek CEO wouldn't even acknowledge the criticism.

Buy a lange instead
Or a parmigiani fleurier instead
If you hold a Lange and a Patek in your hands, you can tell the Lange is the better one.
Couldnt agree more.
Seems like stern needs cash as theres too much other shit that didnt sell.

Lange is overrated.

Love your channel with so many stellar watches! For me the AMZWATCH’ watch is my favorite. Keep the videos coming. Thanks.
Great perspective on Patek’s new release. Your last statement pretty much sums it al. It’s just a watch!..
This interview might be even more damaging to Patek than the uninspired design of the Cubitus 😅
