May I present to you my newest acquisition
Last November I asked you about your opinion between the Patek Philippe Aquanaut and the Audemars Piguet Diver. Two days ago I could pick up the Aquanaut and I must admit, it is a beautiful watch. Pictures can't really capture the beauty of the dial. Well enough said :-)

Great choice. The diver has nothing going on over the Aquanaut.

Great pic, I when I went to my AD and my Advisor showed me the 5167 double sealed, I knew I couldn't walk away, even though I probably should have. This by far is the most comfortable and accurate watch thus far. But the clasp is attracting swirl marks like crazy, I guess it's just par for the course. Wear it in good health!

I've had the diver more than once and now have a 5167 for the second time to me it's not even close between the two of them. Easy choice for me
