Maybe this means that PP will release more colored straps as well? One can dream ;-)

No doubt about it and it safe to say...... The Aquanaut 5167 has become more popular then ever regardless what color it is.....

Remember, those 500 can only be sold from ADs in Singapore and a few in Southeast Asia.

I expect they'd sell out, obviously.

I'm trying to get one. We'll see how it goes.

Hmmmm. Not for me. But I think it might look really nice in person, perhaps the reds are slightly darker in really life :)

This has made me appreciate my very standard, basic 5167A that much more! If I want a bit more jazz or colour with it, I dress it up with accessories.

It's 101% sold out by now. Was probably sold out the second after announcing it.

Nothing has been sold. Patek will make a final decision where these LE go to. AD will put up the proposal to Patek on behalf of customers only.

The red's not for me, but it's still a cool piece.

I have always been wondering if the 5968 should come in red rather than orange. Now I have got the answer straight from Patek - thank you very much. That red screams candy so hard that the color should warrant a discount. It makes the piece unwearable in my book. Still like the 5968 though.

Probably inevitable to cash in. Probably looks good. Hurts a little to see them do this

The SS 7234a is just a few grand less than the 7234r.

And people still can't get it.

You dont think it looks amazing with the red accents to it? I think it pops. I'd definitely wear this all day.

When tired of wearing it, I could also just flip it for 2x its price after beating it up.

The red on the dial is great, the red strap is not for me. Matching crocs won't help.

One of the things that attracts me to PP is the subtle styling and lack of flashiness. When they get into orange straps and red straps it’s just not my thing. But I’d accept one for free if you’ve got one to spare.
(...and I’d immediately change the strap to black.)

Why are people freaking out about 500 pieces. Patek hasn’t sold out. They aren’t losing their way. They still make their other pieces. This is fresh and fun! Lighten up people. Change is good.
