SUMMARY

Introduced in 1997, the Aquanaut draws inspiration from its Genta-designed counterpart, the Nautilus, but maintains its own unique character. It was considered unconventional at launch, offered on a strap made of rubber - a material not traditionally associated with Switzerland’s premier watchmakers. Since then, it’s set the trend for other manufacturers to combine luxurious and contemporary materials.

Part of Patek Philippe’s current Aquanaut range, this ref. 5167R-001 has an expertly finished 40.8mm rose gold case with a blend of brushed and polished surfaces showcasing the watchmaker’s attention to detail.

All watches offered for sale are searched and cleared against The Watch Register database and a certificate is available to the winning bidder upon request.

Any watch not covered by a current sales or service warranty should be considered as potentially requiring a service, even if in full working order on the date of purchase.
