I do like the sleekness of the 67 but between the two, the winner is the 5164. I am also waiting to get a 67a to gift to my brother so it just depends on your preference. Cant go wrong with either of them







Both are stunners!

The 5164 is truly one of the most seamless GMT’s out there. I went with the 67, but I think I just prefer minimalist dial layouts. I like the 5711 more than the 5712.

That is the reason I went with the 5711 also!

I currently have both. I think it depends on your wrist size. I have small 6.5" wrists and the 5167 feels invisible to me, but in a great way. It is the most comfortable watch I've ever worn. I've heard that bigger guys have tried on the 5167 and thought it was too dainty.

The 5164 is thicker and has more heft. I notice it more on my wrist, I guess because of the weight. Whether that is bad or good is up to you. It does seem a bit less comfortable than the 5167.

I don't think you can really go wrong with either. At this point if you can buy any Nautilus or Aquanaut at retail you must do so.

I went from 5164 to 5167 and no regret at all. Apart from the thicker case of 5164, I find the pointer date indicator is quite challenging to read compare to the date window display on 5167. Also I prefer the simpler and cleaner dial of 5167.

As other have said. All the Aquanaut are winner and you can’t go wrong with any of them.
