Catalogue Essay
-In 2017, Patek Philippe released the ref. 5168G-001 featuring a blue dial with a 42.2mm diameter case to celebrate the 20th anniversary of the Aquanaut. An instant success and extremely well-received at its initial launch, it is still today one of the hardest to obtain references at the boutique.
-Housed in a prestigious and hefty white gold case, the diameter was enlarged to 42.2mm and featured an eye catching gradient blue dial going from electric blue in the center to marine in the outer part.
-The watch's sporty looks, stealth white gold case, visual dial and overall rarity make it a must have for the Patek Philippe collector.
-In virtually "like new" condition and from 2020, the present timepiece is accompanied by its full set of accessories.
