Interested in this reference. Is this one of the difficult watches to obtain from an AD? Any idea what the wait time is on it? Thanks

Phil

Some members here have this watch, you may want to hear from them how they got it.

Pateks · 17 September 2019, 01:15 PM

Got mine in June. Placed the order at Basel world last year. Mine was the first one AD got this year. He got one last year.

Aquaman · 17 September 2019, 02:35 PM

Received mine last December,

Now if you ask a AD for it without any history, I'd expect a long wait

Heads up its a great watch

chunkythebulldog · 17 September 2019, 06:49 PM

Received mine in March.
Placed the order at a joint Patek / AD event in the November before.

Long wait

Fat_ninja · 17 September 2019, 09:34 PM

Some local AD’s will get u a 1 year wait but will require you to buy some other stuff

Actually... no one has yet to sell me an aquanaut. I just asked for a 5167 the other day... my guess it be next year... I got smaller wrist than most... but bigger than yours :) so I have to keep to smaller aquanauts.

I suspect even ap1 has a larger wrist than me.

I do think Aquanauts are meant for people with larger wrists though.

Im betting before end of the year.

If they'll even take your name, figure two to three years, which is why it sells for almost twice retail in the grey market.

Hey, how did I get dragged into this. Yes, guilty of small wrist. 6.5 here. Does limit which pieces wear well on me. 5164 is about the max sportwise. Sometimes I question even that. I’ve avoided 5990 entirely not believing you guys that say it wears like a sub. Not like I can walk into a store to prove this right or wrong. I’m worried the spectacular 5212 has lugs that won’t agree with me. Was this TMI?

CoveWatch · 18 September 2019, 02:32 AM

I'm still waiting to get my call for the 68a.. and its been almost a year

I've been offered other things in the meantime, but man it seems they get so very few of these

zahain · 18 September 2019, 03:14 AM

Imo its harder to get than a nautilus due to AD's only receiving 1 or 2 currently. Its probably my most favorite in production sports Patek they offer. I'd rather own a 68 than a 11. Hopefully will get one next year around April/May
