Patek Philippe Nautilus 7118/1A-011 replica in grey
The grey version of the steel 7118 has a gradient dial: almost charcoal at the rim, paler toward the centre, with the wave pattern running across it. White baton markers, white hands and an applied 12 stand out against the grey, and the date window sits at 6. The steel case is 35.2 mm and runs straight into the integrated bracelet.
How the grey changes with light
The studio picture shows a cool, fairly dark grey. In the QC photos taken by hand in daylight the same dial looks lighter and slightly warmer, closer to a taupe grey, while the edge stays the darkest part. Expect it to shift with the light during the day.
Tiers and accuracy
Choose AAA, accurate to ±10 seconds a day, or SuperClone at -5/+6 seconds. In both, the automatic movement sweeps the seconds hand smoothly and runs 40-48 hours once you take the watch off. On QC photo 3 the display caseback shows the gold-tone rotor.
Other 7118
With a row of stones round it, this grey dial with stones on the bezel becomes the 7118/1200A-011. Keeping the plain bezel, the steel case also comes with a blue dial (7118/1A-001) or a white dial with black hands (7118/1A-010), and the stone-set bezel also frames a blue wave dial and a white dial. For a warmer metal, see the rose gold-tone 7118 with a plain bezel; the white gold-tone 7118/1450G-001 set with stones all over is the most decorated of the range. The rest of the ladies and men’s Nautilus models are listed in our collection, and the women’s watches page gathers every ladies’ model.

Questions about the grey 7118/1A-011
Is the grey dial dark or light?
Both: it is a gradient, dark grey at the edge and lighter toward the centre. In daylight it looks lighter than in the studio picture.
How is it different from the blue 7118/1A-001?
Only the dial colour. Case, bracelet, applied 12 and the date at 6 are the same as on the blue model.
What is engraved on the clasp?
A cross emblem on the steel folding clasp, visible on QC photo 7 next to the caseback.
Can I swim with it?
No. The case is rated 30 m, so rain and hand washing are fine; keep the screw-down crown closed.
