I sort of get your point about those who might own one of the watches disliked by others but I don’t see that comparing subjective opinions on watches with spouses has traction and, dare I say it, would be tasteless.

Actually my wife loves the 5261R and if she gets one says she wouldn't dream or want to swim with it.

Incidentally you may have noticed that quite a few collectors don’t ‘get’ (dislike) the Nautilus and my least desirable Patek is the 6300/400G-001.

Each to their own…

Curious if that strap fits the 5164?

There are more elegantly designed dials for a watch but dislike the “ugliest” moniker.

I am not a fan of month & day subdials taking up so much real estate and presenting a rather cluttered motif. Seeing a moonphase at 12 o’clock versus 6 o’clock is unusual.

It’s a diverse design and that’s about it.

I actually think the Aquanaut has aged well, there has been a bit of a retro revival over the past few years in fashions and culture generally, which the Aquanaut plays very well to - I believe it is that (not the hype) which is causing members, who dismissed the line 10+ years ago, to come around to the design today.

That being said, I think the dial on this model is particularly poorly executed. The case at least will be stunning of course. The blue is distinctive, but I am not 100% convinced the colour quite works with the gold. For the right person it could be a great watch, I just wouldn’t be able to get over the proportions of the dial elements.

Moon phase is nice but that cutoff of arabic number at 12 o'clock is horrible.

Why not keep it clean like the date window at 6 o'clock. No arabic number at all.

I think it looks just fine. I would love to have one.

I think the neptune looked pretty bad.

Is a lovely piece! I would be happy if i'm offered one!

I really like this one, size is really for men though the color is more unisex.

Most aquanuats are at least nice..this aquanot is not imo.

But all aquanuats are very nice in resale market.

Surely the Gondolo line takes that accolade! Don't know what they were smoking in Geneva when they came up with that!

It honestly looks like a canal street mock up to me but that’s the beauty of the hobby..people like what THEY like.
