Patek Philippe Aquanaut
5168G-001
£67,500
Now available, a Patek Philippe Aquanaut reference 5168G-001 - the blue-dialled anniversary edition introduced in 2017 to celebrate 20 years of the Aquanaut.
Crafted in white gold and sized at a contemporary 42.2mm, the 5168G elevated the Aquanaut into a more expressive, modern space. While often compared to the later green variant, it’s this original blue execution that remains the standout. The dial features a beautifully executed dégradé finish, transitioning from a deep, inky navy at the perimeter to a brighter, electric blue at the centre, adding depth and warmth that changes constantly with the light. It’s subtle, sophisticated, and undeniably more dynamic on the wrist.
The familiar embossed Aquanaut dial pattern and bold Arabic numerals ensure excellent legibility, while the integrated blue composite strap keeps the watch firmly rooted in its sport-luxury DNA. Powering the watch is Patek Philippe’s calibre 324 S C, visible through the sapphire caseback and finished to the brand’s exacting standards. A modern Patek Philippe that perfectly balances sportiness, refinement, and collectability - and, in this blue anniversary guise, one of the most compelling Aquanaut references of the modern era.
This particular example is UK-supplied from 2021 and benefits from the updated clasp. It remains unpolished and in exceptional condition throughout, showing just little signs of wear. Fully complete with its entirety of accessories from new, it is available for viewing in London and purchase worldwide. Please get in touch for further information.
