Overview
The large Aquanaut in white gold
The Patek Philippe Aquanaut, reference 5168G-010, in white gold with a khaki green varnished dial and embossed Aquanaut pattern, on a khaki green composite strap. Self-winding calibre 26-330 S C with date at 3 o'clock, sweep seconds and stop-seconds; 42.2 mm from 10 to 4 o'clock, 8.25 mm high.
This execution — the one Patek Philippe calls the white gold Aquanaut "Jumbo" — carries a khaki green varnished dial with the embossed pattern, white gold applied numerals and baton hands with luminescent coating, on a khaki green composite strap with the white gold patented fold-over clasp, which the brand notes is secured by four independent catches. Patek Philippe presents the colour as an unexpected one for the line, and names the calibre's stop-seconds function beside the date at 3 o'clock.
The reference 5168 is the Aquanaut with date and sweep seconds in its larger case, 42.2 mm from 10 to 4 o'clock and 8.25 mm high, which Patek Philippe presents as the large Aquanaut. The rounded octagonal bezel is finished in contrasting polished and satin surfaces, the crown screws down and the back is sapphire crystal.
The movement is the self-winding calibre 26-330 S C: 27 mm across, 3.32 mm high, 207 parts and 30 jewels, wound by a 21K gold central rotor. The date sits in an aperture and the seconds run from the centre. It beats at 28,800 semi-oscillations an hour on a Gyromax® balance with a Spiromax® balance spring, for a power reserve of 35 to 45 hours, and carries the Patek Philippe Seal. Patek Philippe presents the dial as legible day and night: the applied numerals and the baton hands are white gold with a luminescent coating.
For collectors
What Patek Philippe sets apart is the size — 42.2 mm, presented as a large Aquanaut — rather than the movement: the calibre is the date-and-sweep-seconds 26-330 S C at 3.32 mm, so the case stays at 8.25 mm despite the diameter.
