Apparently, it was in the personal collection of one the greatest watch collectors in the world, Patrick Getreide:

I wonder what the final price will be....

thats possible... but then again, they're still producing this the royal oak perpetual moonphase which looks kind of similar...

5165 is not black.. its kind of a brownish black that changes texxture depending on the angle you look at it... for some reason it also seems to have a radiating gradient in terms of texture under certain lighting conditions.

perfection.. perfection...! alas it will be awhile before i can even smell one.

STUNNING! Next one you need is an aquanaut!

Hi all, I've been thinking of a royal oak day-date, but recently saw that the current royal oak day date actually replaced an earlier model the royal oak day date WITH moon phase. What was the rationale with removing the moon phase from the new day-date?

Anyone knows exactly when the 5165 was discontinued? Also why did they do so? The 5167 is too big for me.... Assuming I want to get a new watch, there doesn't seem to be any smaller alternative (apart from ladies aquanaut models)?
