Lot Essay

Clearly aimed at a younger, more adventurous audience, the Aquanaut was the first model from the Manufacture to come fitted on a tropical rubber strap, combining refined craftsmanship with a casual and modern look. It embodied the sports-luxe spirit well before it became a retail buzzword. The inaugural model reference 5060 was sized at a modest 35.6 mm., and over the years, Patek Philippe introduced the Aquanaut in various case sizes, including the 38 mm. 'Jumbo' reference 5065 in 1998.

Reference 5167
Reference 5167 debuted at Baselworld in 2007 to mark the 10th anniversary of the model, featuring an updated Calibre 324 SC and a larger 40 mm. case. The timepiece was offered with either a contoured tropical rubber strap or a stainless steel bracelet, while also featuring a revised dial design.
