My first Patek
Hi everyone, I just want to share pictures of my very first Patek. This is the Aquanaut 5167/1A. When I ordered this watch I never seen it in person. I wanted it to be a surprise since most of my collection are SS Rolex. I wanted the buying experience to be different. Seeing for the first time blew my mind. I love the details and the simple look. Patek Philippe did not disappoint. It went above my expectations.

Yes, I placed an order for the black strap. Do you have recommendations for other colors?

unfortunately you will only be able to get black or brown

khaki is a dream but will cost you a fortune on the grey market


enjoy its awesome on the rubber strap
