This contemporary model blends casual elegance with refined craftsmanship, rendered in luxurious white gold and accented by a satin-finished bezel for a discreetly sophisticated presence.
The blue embossed dial, subtly transitioning to black at the edges, is adorned with gold applied numerals and a luminescent coating, ensuring clarity in every setting. Powering this distinguished timepiece is the self-winding Caliber 26‑330 S C/430, offering a sweep seconds hand and a discreet date aperture, visible through the sapphire crystal case back.
Paired with a midnight blue “Tropical” composite strap, designed for resilience and comfort, the Aquanaut 5168G-001 delivers both robust performance and refined style. Water-resistant to 30 metres and equipped with a patented Aquanaut fold-over clasp, this anniversary model captures the essence of contemporary watchmaking while honoring the legacy of one of Patek Philippe’s most beloved collections.
