So something nice arrived last week a watch i have been on the list for a while for. The Patek 5167A Aquanaut. Not gonna go into too much details about the watch as everyone's seen this one before on the forums but for me it's the first time and so far loving it. It will be my daily driver along with the 5990 for everyday use. Perfect service from the Patek boutique who adjusted the strap for me whilst feeding me yummy snacks and also for sourcing me a green "khaki" strap which i think looks absolutely amazing on. Anyway let the photos do the talking!!

Very nice! That's a long way off the Longines Heritage I bought off you some two years ago Jordan
First dibs if / when you flip it but don't scratch the bezel though please
Cant see that one enough!
A cracking collection Jordan and i love the Khaki strap on the 5167.
Just when i thought i was content with my lot!

Very nice - guess you changed your mind about flogging it?
Do love the green strap - I've heard stories of Patek refusing to source / supply them anymore, guess that is incorrect!!!
Very nice, I'd choose it over the more complicated and more expensive 5990!
Hope you got plenty of freebies with it that you can sell on.
Looks great, always been a fan.
Yep! decided to keep it myself as it serves as a great sub watch to the 5990 and very under the radar. Also i recently got a new Job and it's a milestone celebration at the same time :)Originally Posted by kultschar
The strap wasn't easy as I imagined! Apparently the official line at the Salon is they cannot sell the khaki strap on its own. But they are flexible at the end of the day. Somewhat hush hush but at ADs should be easier.

Great watch, congratulations and nice to see it on the Khaki strap.
Your pictures have prompted me to try and track down the same strap for mine.
Two watches I'd definitely be very happy with.
Congrats on the new addition, your other one is a beauty too.
Lovely watch Jordan, the 5167 is the one watch I continue to lust after. Maybe one day

I think that first picture of it on the green strap is the nicest I've seen one of those look. Stunning watch I'm sure most people would enjoy that.

I would chop in my 116520 and 114060 in a heart beat if I could find one!!
Love how legible the dial is!
Such a great watch. Looks well on the green strap as well. Is that easy to get hold of?
Thanks
I'm still waiting for the call on mine. That strap does look good, but I do prefer the black. I haven't seen he green before though, what is the background on it?
It's just a matter of time...
There was a special edition with a green face and a matching strap. But they let you order the green strap for the standard 5167. Some places make more of a song and dance about it than others
Cool watch. Cool strap. Superb!
Thanks Ian it's not as in your face green as some photos make it out to be, it's quite matted if that makes sense. Doensnt look kiddy or anything.

No I meant the strap, is it easy to get that?
The salons will make a big deal about it but lets just say it's possible if you want one. £180.00

Very nice, congrats 😎
That is sheer class and really very nice with the green strap.... absolutely gorgeous....

Very nice.. Haven't seen one in a green strap yet.. Looks good!
Looks superb on that strap. 10/10.
Lovely watch! The green is definitely different from the black. I might look into sourcing one.
Thing is, I'd be terrified to try and change it myself for fear of marking the case.
If you're in london just go to the salon they will do it perfectly for u without charge ofcorse.

Thanks for that but I think I'd probably want the option to swap them on occasions, so not quite ideal :-)
Just sent an email to the London Salon asking if I can order a Khaki Strap for pickup in Sept. Im guessing I'm going to be told to sod off :)
I need educating; why would Patek be unwilling to sell you a strap, assuming you are a customer,of theirs.......
Its bizarre but apparently true (or certainly takes a bit of persuasion!)
Apparently because the green / khaki strap only came on a superduper rare model.
Appears in the US its a doddle.
Do you know what model it was? I vaguely remember a few years back being told by the boutique it was a ladies model. But then he could have said that to shut the conversation down.
5167A special edition with green dial. Saw a pic earlier - will try find again!!!
The estimate was £5500-8270 which is incredibly low, particularly seeing as it sold for £36k.
Beautiful watch OP, congrats.

Congratulations, very nice watch, the 5167 is a great all rounder and has fantastic dial
