5167A vs 5164A
By: Watches_passion : January 10th, 2022-15:55
Dear Friends, i am considering to buy one of the 2. i have never had any aquanauts. my collection is mainly Nautilus (5711/12 and 5990), 5270P and few other complications. for owners of those watches, i appreciate your opinion on which one you think you l...
Very personal choice....

If you travel, the 5164A is Patek's only men's travel watch with a depth rating of 120M. If, however, you want legibility, the 5167A has a classic 3 hands with date on a disc at 3 o'clock. The date on the 5164A is harder to read, since it is on the subdia...

Have to agree with FabR, I too prefer the bracelet version, the 5167/1A. It is by far the most used Patek in my small collection. ...

Part of the deal, i am trading my Havana octa luneFPJ. I realized i have to stick to Patek and wont change this strategy again, so the financials of the deal will impact the decision on 5617 vs 5614a even though the more i look at it the more i think 5164...

Does this mean if i go for the 5167a, i can buy the bracelet seperately as well (as it comes only with the strap)? Thanks for letting me know.
5167a

Since 2008 my most worn watch, been around the world several times. Comfort and legibility is unmatched. ...
5164

Love the wrist presence in f the 5164, and the useful complication. Itās my favorite watch on a rubber strap. The 5167 is also fabulous, so no wrong choice here.
Thanks Edā¦.
