Beautiful watch I just got my 5167a on rubber and it's the most comfortable and light weight watch I have ever owned. It feels damn near invisible on my wrist.

Bracelet. Black strap. Brown strap. Green strap. 4 watches : )
Once you master the spring bars, changing the bracelet off takes less than 10 seconds. |

Would like to add and share more information as promised....
Would like to add and share more information about the 1.5 link....
...^^^.... Top pictures....Thanks to brother Michael aka Ichiran & brother Carlos aka watchtabs for taking the time to take the picture of the 1.5 link before I order it.... In my opinion the 1.5 link make a different regarding wearing the watch, which make it wear even more comfortable..... Not loose and not tight but just perfect...... The best part is the look..... You could not even tell when the 1.5 link is install, unlike the Nautilus 1.5 link...... Bottom pictures is the part number for the 1.5 link.... If you need it..... As a comparison left side is the 1.5 link measurement at 20mm VS right side stock link at 15mm.... Hopefully this information help for the 5167 owner.......

Would like to share this video on the Patek Philippe Aquanaut (FULL BRACELET) 5167/1A-001...
Finally a nice review post by Tim Mosso today.... Tim also quote on youtube..... (Full bracelet 5167/1As are scarce. How scarce? I've shot almost a dozen Nautilus and Aquanaut variants on this channel since mid 2017, and this is my first full-bracelet Aquanaut. Best, Tim) I didn't know that until today.....^^^..... Most people in TRF say the bracelet is less popular then the rubber strap.... I know for the fact both pieces are sought after..... The waiting time is the same as rubber strap due to (1 out of 5) 5167 the bracelet is produce..... I'm lucky to have the bracelet version...... Thank you Tim for the awesome review video..... Patek Philippe Aquanaut (FULL BRACELET) 5167/1A-001...

That is a great video. No surprise. All their videos are that way.
I am not in for $29+k for that watch, but they are more likely to convince me than anyone else. Beautiful watch. |

This is definitely my grail watch, I believe this one would be the perfect daily watch (from business weeks to lay down weekend)
I will sell my Daytona 116500 and probably something else in my collection to acquire this beauty |
