Patek Philippe Aquanaut

Patek Philippe Aquanaut. The Aquanaut is the newest member of the Patek Philippe line of watches having been introduced in 1997. Together with the Nautilus, it is one of two lines of watches that fall in the category of what Patek Philippe calls their sports dress watches.


The Patek Philippe Aquanaut comes in two sizes. The Ref. 5165 has a case diameter of 38mm, while the Ref. 5167 has a case diameter of 40mm. Both versions use stainless steel cases. The Aquanauts comes with a water resistant composite strap, but the 40mm version is also available with a stainless steel strap. As it name implies, the Aquanaut is meant to be used near the water and it has a decent water resistance rating of 120 meters. I would not classify this watch as a divers watch, but it will more than do a person with a active lifestyle.


Movement. The Patek Philippe Aquanaut uses the Patek 324 S C self winding movement which produces 28,800 vibrations per hour (4Hz) and has a 45 hour power reserve. The movement is visible through a clear case back. The watch has a date display at the 3 o'clock position.


About Patek Philippe. Patek Philippe & Co. was founded in Switzerland in 1851. The companies emblem, the Calatrava Cross, was adopted by it at the end of the 19th Century. It is acknowledged as one of the finest, if not the finest, watchmaker in the world.
