Lot Essay
The Patek Philippe Aquanaut reference 5267/200A-001 is one of the most attractive and contemporary interpretations of the manufacture's lady's sports watch. Crafted in stainless steel, the present timepiece combines the distinctive architecture of the Aquanaut with an elegant jewelry touch. Its black embossed dial provides a striking contrast with the bezel, which is set with 48 brilliant-cut diamonds weighing approximately 1.17 carats, lending the watch considerable brilliance while preserving its unmistakably sporting character.
Introduced in 1997, the Aquanaut represented a fresh and more adventurous direction for Patek Philippe. Inspired by the celebrated Nautilus yet endowed with its own distinctive identity, it was the first Patek Philippe wristwatch to be fitted with the manufacture's composite 'Tropical' strap, specifically designed to resist wear, salt water and ultraviolet radiation. Its rounded octagonal case and embossed dial established a relaxed and contemporary aesthetic that appealed to a new generation of collectors.
