Patek Philippe's modern sport reference. The Aquanaut took the Nautilus DNA and made it warmer, friendlier, and tougher — composite "Tropical" strap, rounded octagonal case, embossed checkerboard dial. Introduced 1997 as the brand's entry into the high-end sport segment that didn't require a steel-bracelet aesthetic. The 5167A, 5168G, and 5968 Chronograph are the cornerstone references.
The discontinued steel 5167A trades at strong multiples of its $22,400 list price. The 5167R rose gold, 5168G white gold "Jumbo," and 5968 Chronograph (steel, white gold, rose gold) represent the contemporary catalog. Caliber 26-330 S C base, Caliber CH 28-520 C for the chronograph variants.
