Oh hell no. The Daytona alone blows the Nautilus out of the water. The Patek has a nice movement but its not so great looking style wise. But if someone gave me a free Nautilus I would not turn it down. Still a great classic just not my style.

Nope. Variety is the key for me.

If you really like it then yes. But if you are not familiar with everyday usage of Patek, be aware that it is a fragile watch compared to Rolex.

1 Patek vs 3 Rolexes
You are asking in the wrong forum. Go ask in the PP forum.
I vote for the 5164. Only good one from your mix is a daytona. Super mass produced. You can get it again once the craze goes down. The other is a 34k watch trading at around 40k today. Comparing apples and oranges. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

The 5164A is a beautiful watch but I always get drawn to the aesthetically jarring parrotfish beak like gap between the pushers on the side of its case.

I prefer the daytona alone over that patek. If it was a nautilus it would a different story

Having been a Patek collector and daily wear for well over 15 years... get three Rolex. One Patek highly limits your choices combined with a sheer lack of options when it is in service for 6+ months. Life is about making choices, and only one Patek severely limits your option in many ways.

Nope. Not even for a second would I consider letting them go.

I actually prefer the rubber on Aquanauts. Rolex or Omega I'd agree bracelet over leather/rubber everytime.

I would definitely keep the 5164. One of my dream watches! Even more so considering the collection you already have. Its close in trade value, but I believe the Patek is worth slightly more than the 3 Rolex, too (new & used value)
I’m surprised at how many people like the Nautilus, but not the Aquanaut. I have a 5711 and a 5167, and I like the Aquanaut as much as the Nautilus. Actually wear it more often. And love the tropical strap! (the only way it’s available on the 5164 anyways). |
