Favorite Nautilus/Aquanat combo
I’m torn, I love the 5164, and the 5167. Which to get in rose gold and which in steel. Is it silly to get a 5167 and a 5164...
So, do the steel 5164a and the 5711r or the 5167r and 5990a. Sheesh... I ventured into scary terrority for myself... |

For me these would be the two... travel times are not redundant as you can clean them up when you don't need them. No date windows is a huge plus and both are very versatile.

I highly doubt that you can’t do a bit of simple arithmetic to work out the time elsewhere on the Earth, but if that’s too taxing (or you’re just a lazy sod) then the 5164 would make the most sense overall. Does it make the 67 redundant – yes if you need to have the second timezone displayed at weekends too. Then again, who’s to say what’s rational or not, except for yourself – decide what you fancy, then go for it! As for the 5164 having no date window, and being seen as a bonus… well I’d consider a date sub-dial as a detractor, not to mention the two holes at 4 and 8 with non dial-coloured discs below them! Aesthetic preferences are rather personal, as you can see, so you’re best to use your own judgement there. |

5711r and 5164a was my ideal pairing. Pics below.

Agree, but to be honest, I'll take any combo.
