Incoming! My first Patek!
Picked up the Aquanaut 5167R yesterday at my local AD!

All I can say is I'm normally a Rolex guy (sub, daytona, batman etc) but this watch is absolutely gorgeous and yet still sporty! I'm in love!

I have a feeling this won't be my last Patek :)

Congratulations- 5167r was my first as well! Subsequently flipped for a 5164r, a 5205r has come and gone, a 5070r came and stayed and a 5905p blue dial is also in the fold, but might get flipped for a 5270g.

As others have remarked, the aquanaut (even in gold) is a gateway drug. Enjoy it!
