The Patek Philippe Aquanaut Travel Time ref. 5164 appears for the very first time in 18K white gold and features an opaline blue-gray dial with an Aquanaut embossed pattern. This refined shade is echoed on the blue-gray rubber strap with an 18K white gold fold-over clasp. The new Patek Philippe Aquanaut Travel Time ref. 5164G-001 Blue-Gray dial is for sure the type of watch you need to see in person to fully appreciate it.
The 18K white gold case measures 40.8 mm in diameter with a thickness of 10.2 mm and is water resistant to 30 meters thanks to its screw-down crown. The case alternates satin brushed finished areas with mirror polish.
The new Patek Philippe Aquanaut Travel Time ref. 5164G-001 Blue-Gray like its predecessors, features a Travel Time display complication combining excellent legibility with user-friendliness. The date is indexed to local time and with the help of two pushers on the left caseband, one can make adjustments to the travel time skeletonized hand having two time zones, one local and home time indication with day/night indication for local time and home time in apertures.
The Movement
Powering the new Patek Philippe Nautilus ref. 5164G-001 Blue-Gray Dial is the automatic Patek Philippe in-house calibre 26-330 S C FUS. Turning the watch over reveals the beautifully finished 290-part movement with 21K gold oscillating weight. This movement provides a power reserve of 45 hours when fully wound while beating at a frequency of 28,800 vph.
