Don’t forget their big brother 5168

I have had the good fortune of having all of these on the wrist. And the one that made my heart beat most is the big blue not sure it gets the attention it deserves it’s truly stunning especially in the right light. The weight of the white gold feels better on my wrist then the 5167 stainless steal it really does fall under the category of too light. I like light watches as well but it really is a feather. The green was just too dull for my tastes the color of blue they use on this one is just so spot on.

What are your thoughts on this one?

Love this shade of blue

Indeed not as coveted as other Aquanaut references (perhaps due to the precious metal), but it is a neat and beautiful model, especially in person -- and I also do prefer this version vs. the newer green iteration! ;-) Enjoy.

That is stunning. Looks so good on you. I have a friend who owns one and LOVES it, although he is out of town so I never see it. Thanks for sharing this pic. So nice. Enjoy!

That's a beauty. I think I like it more than any other current Aquanaut or Nautilus (although I have never see the perpetual)

This one and the Aquanaut chrono are my favourite PP sports watches. I also do prefer it over the green one, because as you said the green is kind of dull.

Also prefer it over the smaller Aquanauts and the Nautius models. If it‘s true, that they‘re replacing the 5711 by a larger model, I might be in big big trouble, though.

All good choices I guess thanks for your thoughts

For what it’s worth I have a couple of non-losses as well I absolutely love their sizing on my wrist but I like the 42 mm size of the 5168 I have a 7 inch wrist I’m not sure 1 mm on the Nautilis will make much difference but everybody will get quite excit...

Enjoy this blue aquanaut often !
