Missing an Aquanaut in the collection

I had a 5164 a couple of years ago and missed the combination of sportiness and elegance. I tried this piece on multiple times in the past but for some reason I never pulled the trigger. I picked this beauty up today and love it. The RG case with the dark brown metallic dial is killer! HAGWE all!

So cool in gold and brown. A great watch and better ‘value’ than the steel ‘a’ I think

I agree. It is a relatively underrated piece.

Such a lovely piece, for me first choice would be this 5167R or the limited red black version in steel , then a few miles behind those two the standard steel one that actually also is one great watch.

Did you need to wait long for it or went the grey premium routing?

Really? I think it wears small for a 40mm given how thin it is.

I think the best looking Aquanaut is the 5168g but at 42mm and flat, I think it’s too big. I bought this from my AD and I expressed interest in it last year.
