Congratulations, Christian!
The blue-grey color seems very nice and it works well with the rose gold. I’m not sure how I feel about the cut 12, but it’s only a detail. So, even if I would probably feel even more attracted to the brown model 5167R because this color really speaks to me, 5261R seems to be a very nice watch.
Wear and enjoy it in the best of health!
Cheers, Emmanuel
Patek Philippe Aquanaut 🧜♂️ 5261R-001 Quick Review
Dear all, Happy to share a few pictures of my new Aquanaut 5261R-001, just received from my fantastic AD today! It’s been nearly nine years since I last bought a Patek, and owning an Aquanaut has always been on my wishlist. The 2023 Luce release definitel...

Thank you Emmanuel 👏very intriguing points ! the 5261R was also a big favourite
but I love the annual calendar complication and the moon is really special. Also in term of sizes works perfectly for me, perhaps more for smaller wrists. The cut 12 I honestly didn't even notice! but love the 🌝so a good trade off for me
thank you!! absolutely love it ❤️ 🧜♂️
somehow the color combination of the blue/grey is very very special in person.
Awesome incoming! Big Congrats, Christian!
Isn't this release originally as a "ladies" watch that make all men's knee weak? I think it is a very nice one that can be shared if my "boss" gets the call, which may never happen, lol.... I heard the setting of the watch is not easy or takes a lot of ti...
🧜♂️👏thank you very much ! I think we started collecting at the same time more or less
so always nice to hear from you! Of course my collection is no match for yours 😂 The Luce is indeed a ladies' line. To be very honest I always liked the look so never tried it before delivery day (today). It has 4 pins for the settings so like all annual ...
Big congratulations Christian !
I saw this reference at the Japan Exhibition when it was launched. In the metal, the color scheme is even more vibrant and regal than the photos !👍 Great catch and it looks 👀 superb on your wrist with shirt & jacket ! The only issue for me is cutting out ...
Thank you !! 👏I am a huge fun of your collection which is just sublime..don't be shy and share your aquanauts 🧜♂️!
Well the cut 12 is really something I didn't even notice !! I kind of like it 😉
This is looking
super cool on your wrist Christian, huge congrats! Have lots of fun with it this summer!
Thank you Derreck! much appreciated 👏 It is summer ready and the new Patek water resistance🧜♂️
to 30 "real" meters is somehow intriguing. I was always confused by all these watches 30mt water resistance that you couldn't take swimming!
Yes me too!
Finally some companies are changing this at least. Good to have nice watches that you are not afraid to use around water, which is more times than one thinks during day to day life.
Congrats Christian !
This Aquanaut is gorgeous in every aspect ! Enjoy your new toy Cheers Robin
thank you Robin! appreciated! 🧜♂️
I remember your wonderful posts and collection from when I started buying more watches in 2015 or so!
I miss those days my friend
Been away for some time and glad to be back and see old friends like you
Thank you my friend :)
Your collection is even more impressive ! And I’m enjoying all your posts and pics here. Thanks for sharing Cheers Robin
This looks great!
I love the gold and blue. The cut numerals are what they are. My annual has them too and it doesn’t bother me! ...
thank you 👏 super nice Lange annual calendar ! it is interesting how, for the excitement I didn't even notice it
and it doesn't bother me at all !
This is a really nice one with an unusual color scheme so it stands out...
...I'd be curious to see how it would fit my semi-large wrist. I imagine there is a long waiting list for this one...
as I have been wearing my Lange Zeitwerk for a while my first reaction is that the aquanaut 🧜♂️ is on the small side
but then again Lange even issued a 34mm this year! I think it could look small on semi-large wrists. It has to be tried but...I also couldn't try it as it was never available !
I am totally use it to the Zeitwerk heft, really well balanced (the new version at least! ) works even in a smaller wrist
and has the right size else you couldn't read the time so well.
Huge congrats, Christian!
Beautiful watch and pictures. It looks perfect on your wrist.
thank you 👏 I am brave and do wear also bigger watches but I don't have a huge wrist
so obviously this looks more elegant/discreet which for an Aquanaut - that is very recognisable - is a great thing!
Congratulations! I really like this reference as well. The
rose gold and that shade of blue are great. Love the complications along with the Moonphase. I want to see this one in person to try it on as well to see if I can make it work. Looks superb on you. Well done. - Sebastian
