Patek Philippe Aquanaut 5968A CHRONOGRAPH Watch
Aquanaut was the first of its kind when it was released in 1997. It was different from what was currently on the market and completely unexpected. The inspiration for the rounded octagon cases in this collection stems from the Nautilus collection. However, the “Tropical” strap is unique to the Aquanaut collection. This strap is ultra resistant to wear as it protects from both salt water and UV radiation. .
