Nicely done! Since I got into Patek I've been keeping an eye out for a spotting, and so far, not a single confirmed sighting! Tons of Rolies out there, far fewer Paties

That may be the best picture I have seen that captures the dial, the 3d numbers and the bezel. Excellent pic.

Love the 5167. Not a fan of the 5711 at all though. Something must be wrong with me.

It's my favorite sports watch my a long shot!!! Well that is until I can get the 5164 to go with it. Gotta keep telling myself the 5167 is my favorite until then ;-)

Mine says hello!

I was wondering if those with the 5167 and the tropical strap could comment on the quality and ease of use of the deployant buckle. I read in one forum that someone flipped the watch because he was fed up with the deployant buckle.
Thanks

Maybe Gus could expand on why the deployant buckle is a pain. Have others had a problem with it?
Thanks

The deployant is simple but worked well enough.

Thanks. I guess the deployant should not stop me from getting an Aquanaut. The look of the watch is really starting to grow on me. It combines sport and dress very nicely.

Not a single complaint here. It fits my wrist perfect and has never undone itself. I honestly forget the watch in on my wrist like others have claimed so can attest to that observation as well. That was one of the selling points that I always questioned. How someone could really forget a $20k watch was on their wrist but it's really the most comfy watch I've ever worn. But I tend to try to remember it's on my wrist since it's my daily and would hate to chip it on something. I've gotten used to having wrist presence with it in only a few weeks time. I'm coming from wearing a GSOTM which required zero wrist presence since it would shatter before scratching so has been quite a change but in a good way.

I can't see how people have issues with the deployant .. Mine is easy to use and works great..
