The rose gold 5990: blue dial, gold hands, and the same two complications as the steel watch.
Patek Philippe showed the 5990/1R-001 at Watches and Wonders in April 2021, beside the steel 5990/1A. It is the Nautilus Travel Time Chronograph in rose gold: case, bezel, pushers and integrated bracelet, with a rose gold fold-over clasp. Patek lists one dial for it, sunburst blue with the horizontal embossing, rose gold baton markers and rose gold hands.
The movement is calibre CH 28-520 C FUS, the same as in the steel watch: a self-winding flyback chronograph with a 60-minute counter, column wheel and vertical disc clutch, 370 parts and a 21K gold rotor. Two pushers on the left flank move local time an hour at a time in either direction, the date hand follows local time, and the skeletonised home-time hand sits under the solid one when the two times agree.
What separates it from the steel 5990 is the metal and what goes with it: rose gold markers and hands where the steel watch has white gold, and a blue sunburst where the current steel dial is blue-grey.
