Patek 5167R Decisions, Decisions....

Mates - I currently own a 5167A and looking at getting a 5167R b/c it is so unbelievably gorgeous. Does anyone have a 5167R they can post ? Any advice appreciated.

5167r is a unicorn. You rarely see them.

My AD has one, they are unbelievably gorgeous and stealthy.

My fav pic of it, I think the dude who took it is here.

I thought about the R version but then decided on the 5164. I love them all too!

I would get the 5164 if I travelled but my wife likes me to stay home while she makes all the $$. This way she can keep tabs on me and I can spend $$ freely. Not a bad deal...

Yes that's my 5167R. A gorgeous watch that I since traded. While I have no regrets about letting it go, I will say the 5167R was a special time piece that looked great and felt terrific on the wrist. I'd recommend it for anyone who likes the Aquanaut design and really digs rose gold.

Thank you! It was your great pictures of your 5167 that got me started with the Aquanaut!

There needs to be an Aquanaut chronograph.

Somebody actually photo-shopped it a few months ago, looked really cool. Wish I could find it.
