Patek Philippe

When first introduced in the late 1990s, the Patek Philippe Aquanaut represented a bold departure for the Manufacture. It was the first stainless steel sports model launched by Patek Philippe in over twenty years, conceived to attract a new, younger generation of collectors. Initially met with some skepticism from traditional clients and often referred to as the “Nautilus junior,” the Aquanaut has since established itself as one of the brand’s most coveted modern icons.

The present example, a lady’s size Aquanaut, captures the model’s elegant sportiness in perfect proportion. Its compact case, distinctive embossed dial, and integrated strap design make it both stylish and versatile — a timepiece suited as much for everyday wear as for refined occasions.
