Denim Blue Patek Philippe Aquanaut Travel Time 5164G
A stylish combination of white gold or platinum and grey-blue brings some sophistication to Aquanaut's useful GMT travel watch.
Patek Philippe offers launched a new white gold type of its popular Aquanaut Journey Time, featuring a gray-blue switch and matching strap. Even though many Patek Philippe enthusiasts mourned the discontinuation of the 5164A stainless steel Aquanaut earlier this season, this new white gold model : the first of its kind - is really a handsome addition to the variety, joining the existing rose gold versions juxtaposed. 5164R.
Launched in 1997, the actual Aquanaut proved that there had been life beyond the mythological Nautilus sports watch. Sportier and more casual than the Nautilus, the Aquanaut is considered a flexible sports watch and includes a textured tropical rubber band that echoes the stamped pattern on the dial. This year, Patek Philippe equipped the particular Aquanaut with its first problem, which became the Aquanaut Travel Time.
Flaunting the practical GMT function, the second time zone or even home time is pointed out by an additional skeletonized hours hand. The date subdial at 6 o'clock is actually indexed by local period, and has two day/night signals to indicate local time and house time respectively. Another helpful feature of the Travel Period is the user-friendly button on the left of the case that adjusts the neighborhood hour hand backward or perhaps forward in one-hour installments.
The case keeps its characteristic rounded octagonal bezel and features a up and down satin-brushed finish and broad polished bevels that are duplicated throughout the case. The white gold or platinum case has a diameter associated with 40. 8 mm along with a thickness of 10. two mm. It is equipped with the screw-in crown, but the water-resistant depth is less than 30m, that is somewhat contradictory to the status as a sports view.
The lovely rich and creamy gray-blue dial features typically the signature embossed grid-like Aquanaut pattern, which continues with an integrated composite rubber straps with a patented white gold foldable clasp. It’s hard to inform without looking at the watch, however the colors look very similar to all those used on the 2023 Aquanaut Luce Annual Calendar 5261R. The white gold applied numbers as well as the local hour, moment and date hands tend to be treated with a white lustrous coating.
Underneath the sapphire crystal window within the case back is Patek Philippe’s self-winding 26-330 SOUTH CAROLINA FUS movement, driven with a 21k gold oscillating bodyweight. The movement measures thirty-one mm x 4. 82 mm, has a frequency regarding 4 Hz, a optimum power reserve of 42 hrs, and is used for local as well as home time indications, main sweep seconds, local and also home time day/night signals, and local time date.
