They could always lie
A European Banker or leader saying how when it gets serious you have to lie. Of course the Rothschilds say when it gets serious you hold onto your gold bars, referring to physical gold. Not that I'm a fan of physical gold but you know, hey, whatever works for the Rothschilds and we know central banks hold on to it for some reason. Perhaps stopping purposefully devaluating the currency that is their only product would be a nice start.
PP has done such a good job not delivering Nautilus anymore that now people are moving to the Aquanaut?
Has that been the game plan? Uplifting the Aquanaut also to a legend status? Looking at the second hand market it seems to be in the lift as well. Not as bizarre as the Nautilus, but let’s wait and see what will happen. ...
I really struggle with the Aquanaut
It seems so blah to me....I don’t like the nautilus either but at least it has some character
Same here. I really don’t get the hype either.
I would take the Blancpain Leman Grande Date Aqua Lung instead, though the Travel Time looks fine.
It is Pateks strategy to ...
Broaden the interest in another model and rest the Nautilus. Only one big problem demand and supply of the Aquanaut has become a big mess.
I think patek are doing the right thing by not increasing supply of these models.
Thierry Stern has clearly stated that they don’t want the brand to be synonymous with a certain design or line, it being the Nautilus or the Aquanaut or any other, for that matter. That is protecting the long term value of Patek Philippe and the right thi...
The Calatrava has always been the Patek for general consumption..
available to all that want one as a starting point for PP customers.
Aquanaut gets more wrist time
As someone with the 5711, 5167A and 5167R, I can tell you my Aquanauts get more wrist time than my Nautilus does. I guess it’s down to personal preference.
had one and it's the only Patek I ever sold
Simply did not like it. Demand for steel watches (sportswitches) Patek en Rolex is just crazy Try to get a pepsi, GMT, Daytona, Nautilus 5 mars ? 7 years ? NUTS
True watch lovers don’t crave for hyped models and hyped brands.
They’re strong enough to resist and collect other watches, watches with more value to the watchmaking itself.
It is not that I am being an anti-conformist
I simply find the aquanaut to be an inferior product. The design, aesthetics, mechanism....it just doesn’t do it for me. I generally collect grand complication level timepieces, so I have no bias to any particular timepiece at the start/mid level. I get t...
.........till the bubble makes boom! The last ten years, a lot of people invested in goods, watches, garage-gold, art, etc. When the interest rates rise, the party is over.
Second possible scenario, the next crash on the stock market. I think this is not so far away. Than they need money and sell everything. Always the same.
For me the most important is that i like this watch.
So i can not imagine to buy a Pepsi, because i dont like this blue-red on the insert. But i can imagine to buy it with coke or black insert, like Nicos 1675 Espresso. This Pepsi always remind me of chewing gums when i was a child, BAZOOKA. So for me it lo...
When the relation
between real value and price gets ... surreal I quit the game. With pleasure. That applies to Nautilusses, Aquanauts, Pepsis and all the other hype-watches. Regardless if I could afford it. Simply as a matter of principle. Best, Thomas
The prices at the offer are surreal, but they dont sale for this prices. For me, the price is what i see in front of me on the table, CASH.
There are 1500 Nautilus, 5000 Daytonas, 3700 R.O., 9000 Panerei ..................
The most important question for me is
if I feel comfortably with the prize I have to pay. If I feel ... outsmarted or cheated I cannot enjoy what I have bought. The pleasure to own a watch for me is to WEAR a piece of art being consistent with your life and what you are (want to be). The joy ...
The current bubble...
Since central banks have blown yet another bubble to save ailing their system from collapse, this bubble is perhaps the largest in history of central banking schemes. When this bubble pop, do not try to catch this falling knife. Between unstable currency ...

Don't want to intentionally insult anyone's beloved watch, but without Patek Philippe on the dial...
I think the Aquanaut would have long-ago been relegated to the dustbin of history.
I think the Aquanaut has its own character. Even at rubber strap its got its finesse and charm.
The slimness of the watch is such a charm and a very comfortable watch. My opinion. I may be biased, but a happy dude. Cheers 🍻 friends. Geross. ...
So true! It’s a design of its own with DNA of Gérald Genta.
And a PP is in no way comparable with a Rolex. I love my Daytona 116500 a lot but thats’s a completely different concept of a watch.
I don't see the value in an Aquanaut model to keep an eye on it. If will rise in price - is famously, will fall - so the and be.
For me personally, the best sports steel watch over $10,000 - Daytona. Sorry for the platitudes.
Aquanaut
I bought mine before it became so very popular, and at a sizeable discount too. I loved it then, and love it now - it is the perfect all-around watch for me. At this point I could probably sell it and double what I paid for it, but then I wouldn't have th...
Value for money
I think we all vary in terms of how we determine a watch purchase. For some, what represents "value" will vary enormously compared with others. Since there are so many factors that are purely subjective, I am not sure anyone can really be definitive. A mu...
Appeal of the Aquanaut.
At one point, I did not like the look of the Aquanaut, but over the years it grew on me. When I had the opportunity to put one on I knew what I was going to do. I felt silly because I had been critical of it for a long time, but love is love. I love steel...
I have one! How many of us do?
I find I wear mine all the time: despite having plenty of choice! I don’t know why I like it but I do. It has real charm. It gets to you... it should not attract a premium but I get why it does. I think it will become an icon.
Well if the crash comes...
Shares and funds are going bust... So everyone says... House prices too... And interests are low... And most countries are now in the hands of some crazier than usual politicians... Who might scoop your cash away too with odd taxes! When it all goes wrong...
