Enjoying my 5168G in spring weather ☀️

Scratches and all, I still love this as a simple, palate cleanse Patek Philippe.

Dear Emmanuel, thank you for your reply. Regarding 5167R, I find it to be extremely appealing and carefully weighed it versus 5168G khaki green.

The reasons I went with 5168 are: It is totally different from anything I have. I own 5711/1R which like 5167 R has a brown dial; In general, particularly in a sports type watch I gravitate towards white metals, which I find to be more casual, versatile a

Dear Patekova,

Thank you for your detailed and interesting review. I had missed it because, well, I simply didn’t yet give the modern Aquanauts the attention they surely deserve. Among Patek Philippe watches, they’re not the ones I’m drawn to or looking for. But, like y

Thanks for your thorough review! There is however one aspect I tend to disagree with…

and it is the point that, in my humble opinion, the 5968 wears dramatically better than the 5168 on smaller wrists (like mine). While they are both the same in diameter, the slimness of the 5168 reduces the angle of strap attachment. For that very reason,

Big congrats on the 5968A 🎉👏🏻

I am so behind on catching up so many nice NWAs here. For me, I don’t have the 5168G and will love to add it but would not loose sleep without ever owning it. I am also happy and fortunate to own a 5167A and I love how comfortable it feels and wears. The

Having owned both the 5168G Khaki Green and 5968A steel chrono and worn both many times I thought a comparison might be fun and hopefully interesting.

As background, when the Aquanaut was first introduced in the 1990s for me it was definitely not love at first sight ….. far from. But over a period of many years I went from indifference to appreciation to love. It took me quite a while to acquire each of

A brief review of 5821/1A olive green dial

Dear All, After wearing the Cubitus stainless steel 5821/1A for nearly 2 weeks, I would like to share my impression on this controversial novelty of 2024, as promised to Gordon earlier on Dial ------ The olive green dial looks very similar, if not the sam

Having spent some wrist time with each of the 3 Cubitus models this is how I feel about Cubitus generally and each model specifically:

I very much appreciate that Thierry and Patek ventured to add a new line and to be daring and unpredictable. While historically rectangles, squares and other shaped watches were once extremely popular those days are long gone. Personally, I love vintage r
