Aquanaut 5167a Strap Options?

The 5167a comes as standard with a black rubber strap. I see there's also a green strap on a special edition, and possibly a brown strap available as well?

Has anyone got photos of their steel 5167 on these straps?

Thanks

Not 100% sure but either way Patek is very sketchy about it and "officially" not allowed but will after some conversation get you one. It's all very sketchy.

It could also be from the advanced research. Either way I've seen pics of it on a stainless 5167.

I haven't seen it on a 5167 yet, but it should fit. I have seen a pic on a 5164 and that looks really good as the blue matches the blue on the day/night indicator. Not sure i would get one for my 5164 though as i generally don't like blue straps.

Of the two, i think the 5164 would look better on the blue strap.

You can buy all of the straps at a Patek AD, if they don't have it in stock, they can order it for you. $300 a pop. Black, Green, Brown, Blue.

HSWA in NY sells them for $255 plus shipping if you want to order via phone.

I got the pricing right from the source earlier this morning. Yep, your AD is screwing you

Didn't they bump you down the list for a 5711 blue?

Maybe they bumped me or I was lied to, either way doesn't matter, I'm only dealing with the AD I bought my 5711 white dial from now on. To be fair to my local AD, my advisor has always treated me with respect and given me many watch winders and watch baseball caps. But when you deal with a small mom and pop AD, they go the extra distance and I got more goodies from the 5711 purchase than with all 6-7 of my local AD purchases. I suppose since my 6-7 purchases pale in comparison to my demo-graphical area. Folks in Old Westbury or Brookville, NY probably spend as much money one purchase than I did with my 6-7 watches bought across many years.

Green and brown are easily available. I am having difficulty trying to get the blue one as PP UK are making it difficult for ADs to order it. I think HSWA in the US allow you to order the blue one as easily as the others.

The green looks best with the 5167 and the blue looks amazing on the 5164.

Has anyone had any luck sourcing the blue strap?

Wempe regularly charge 50% extra for AP straps, imagine PP is the same.

Wow that's robbery, I was interested in the brown 5167 strap when I purchased my aquanaut and sales person stated $300 a pop. But when I heard $300 I said absolutely not.

Aquanaut 5167a Strap Options?

There's an Ebay seller selling blue ones although I don't think they're OEM, they look ok on the pics. Not sure about quality. Here's the link

I have mine on the brown strap from the rose gold version.

Bought it at the NY service center for ~$250 usd.

Not the best pic, sorry.

Thanks for the reply with photo! You make my day!
I walked to my local service centre and told that unable to sell difference color strap as my 5167 is normal black dial...then the guy asked me to approach other ADs instead.

This is 100% true. I am in the US. My AD said they could get me any color but HWSA would not sell them blue. The AD mentioned HWSA as being sketchy and weird when asking about the blue strap.
