I very much liked the 5968 when I tried it on at the Salon in Geneva last month. It is my favorite Aquanaut as I find it more interesting than the 5167 and don't like how the left-side pushers on the 5164 change the Aquanaut design and I am generally no fan of travel time watches. One more reason why I will pick up the 5968 (whenever the AD has one for me) rather than the basic 5167 is that I have got a basic Nautilus and a little Calatrava but lack a chrono.

One thing to keep in mind coming from Rolex is that the Aquanauts (just like the Nautilus) are scratch magnets. And they do not necessarily look good or better when scratched unlike, for example, some Rolex or IWC tool watches.
