Patek Philippe Aquanaut Date Black 5167A

Overview 

The Patek Philippe Aquanaut Date reference 5167A is a modern classic that captures the spirit of contemporary luxury sports watchmaking with quiet confidence. Introduced in 2007, the 5167A refined the original Aquanaut silhouette with a slightly larger, yet perfectly balanced, 40.8mm stainless steel case and a slimmer profile, significantly enhancing its wearability. Its softly brushed and polished rounded octagonal bezel echoes the design language of the Nautilus while maintaining a distinct, more youthful and robust identity.

The embossed black dial is one of the Aquanaut’s defining features. Dynamic in both texture and tone, it changes subtly with the light, while bold white gold Arabic numerals and luminous hands offer exceptional legibility in any condition. A discreet date window sits at 3 o’clock, seamlessly integrated into the dial’s symmetrical layout. The supple black “Tropical” composite strap, resistant to wear, UV rays, and saltwater, secures the watch comfortably to the wrist and underscores its dual personality: refined enough for the boardroom, yet ready for travel and adventure.

At the heart of the 5167A beats the self-winding Calibre 324 S C, a beautifully finished movement visible through the sapphire exhibition caseback. With its 45-hour power reserve, Gyromax balance wheel, and meticulous finishing—in line with the demanding Patek Philippe Seal—this calibre is a testament to the brand's mechanical artistry and commitment to precision. Despite its elegant appearance, the Aquanaut is also a robust timekeeper, boasting 120 meters of water resistance.

Importantly, the 5167A is now one of the last remaining standard stainless steel models in the Aquanaut family, as Patek Philippe continues to focus on precious metals for its sport watch lines. That inherent rarity, combined with its enduring design and its connection to the modern rise of integrated luxury sports watches, makes the 5167A especially desirable among collectors. For connoisseurs and enthusiasts alike, this is a watch that not only lives up to the Patek Philippe name—it does so with understated strength and timeless poise.
