Aquanaut 5167/1A, if you have the choice... go for the steel bracelet option !

[unknown]

For some reason most people prefer that ugly plastic ( rubber ) strap. Must be me but I can't stand it.
Always disliked cheap looking rubber or nato straps :-)

It's like wearing a made to measure Kiton suit ... and wearing some ugly rubber crocks at the same time

Anyway, to each his own I suppose but a rubber strap on a high end watch gives me the same feeling :-)

If you can buy one of these Aquanaut I would definitely suggest to buy the one on a steel bracelet. It's 4K more expensive but really worth it.
Besides, you can order a rubber strap and steel deployment. If you buy one on the swatch looking strap you can NOT order a steel bracelet afterwards
So go for the 5167/1A and not the 5167/A.

Also know that only 1 out of 4 is delivered with the steel bracelet. Talked to my AD rencently and in the last 10 (!) years he only received 4 on a steel bracelet and about 3 - 4 times more on rubber.

Waiting lists are as you know insane. rather like almost impossible to get. Since the 5711/1A is discontinued this even got worse.

Just some pics













And that dial ... depending on the light it goes from black to grey, brown
