Patek Philippe reference 5067 was launched in the market in 2004 and it was given the nickname "Luce" which means light in Italian by collectors. This reference is the first lady "aquanaut" to feature an embossed raised guilloche dial that compliments the overall appearance of the watch, especially when it is accompanied with the unique textured rubber strap. Furthermore, the watch is fitted with 46 brilliant-cut diamonds to the bezel which enhances its elegance on a sporty case. The watch can be worn in all occasions, both formally or informally. Bold and playful, the present Aquanaut wristwatch features a striking blue dial with matching rubber straps. The iconic octagonal case, inspired by a marine porthole, remains unchanged and is underscored by the satin-finished diamond-set bezel. The watch is further highlighted with a blue dial featuring a contrasting red centre seconds hand. The fashionable colours on this watch radiate feminine elegance in any season.
