C24: where all the non-5167 Aquanauts

Where are the 33mm, 35mm non-5167 models? There was even a mens size quartz model.

Are these being hoarded by flippers?

Or are most of them turned into womens watches with aftermarket bling on the bezel?

People bought them to wear them, not to park money or flip them. Likely also produced in much lower numbers than 5167 which has been around for 14 years.

Until a year ago, you could find almost all of the non-5167 on C24, now even the Soros one is not offered.

Try searching by model number and you'll find at least a few of each:

Original style:

5060 - the original 35.5mm (similar to 5066 but w/solid case back)
5065 - "Jumbo" 38mm
5066 - midsize 35.5mm
5064 - midsize quartz 35.5mm
4960 - ladies quartz 30mm

Current style:

5165 - 38mm version of 5167, very uncommon

This thread, and my subsequent curiosity, also led me to discover a version I was previously unaware of, the blue dial Japan special edition of the 5066:
