First introduced in 1996, Patek Philippe released the Aquanaut to commemorate the 20th anniversary of the Nautilus. Being the first Patek Philippe wristwatch to feature a rubber strap, the Aquanaut was designed to target a younger audience. Since its launch, the model has become one of the hottest models in the Patek Philippe line up today.
In 2017, the firm released the Aquanaut ref. 5168G-001 featuring a vibrant blue dial and a larger 42.2mm diameter case. Released to celebrate the 20th anniversary of the Aquanaut model, the reference was also later introduced with a khaki green dial with a matching rubber strap. Today the reference is one of the most sought-after in the boutiques.
The present example Patek Philippe Aquanaut ref. 5168G-001 from circa 2018 is offered with its full set of accessories. Fresh-to-the-market, the present example ref. 5168G-001 is the 12th example to appear at auction.
Since its founding in 1839, this famous Geneva-based firm has been surprising its clientele with superbly crafted timepieces fitted with watchmaking's most prestigious complications. Traditional and conservative designs are found across Patek Philippe's watches made throughout their history — the utmost in understated elegance.
Well-known for the Graves Supercomplication — a highly complicated pocket watch that was the world’s most complicated watch for 50 years — this family-owned brand has earned a reputation of excellence around the world. Patek's complicated vintage watches hold the highest number of world records for results achieved at auction compared with any other brand. For collectors, key models include the reference 1518, the world's first serially produced perpetual calendar chronograph, and its successor, the reference 2499. Other famous models include perpetual calendars such as the ref. 1526, ref. 3448 and 3450, chronographs such as the reference 130, 530 and 1463, as well as reference 1436 and 1563 split seconds chronographs. Patek is also well-known for their classically styled, time-only "Calatrava" dress watches, and the "Nautilus," an iconic luxury sports watch first introduced in 1976 as the reference 3700 that is still in production today.
