“With its famous green dial and commanding presence, this is a watch most Patek fans can only dream of.”

The Gérald Genta lineage is unmistakable in the Aquanaut’s porthole design, but this watch has become an icon in its own right. Patek Philippe wanted the line to define the future, and the youthful, dynamic line’s first Chronograph, the 5968, features forward-thinking updates and changes. The watch boasts the new 42.2mm “Jumbo” case, crafted entirely from elegant, subtle 18k white gold. This makes for a highly masculine look, but one which keeps the famous proportions, lines and styling, with a delicately satin-finished bezel and mix of polishing and brushing on the edges and top. The Aquanaut is Patek’s frontier when it comes to exploring colour, and the 5968G retains a rugged, eye-catching quality with its stunning, “khaki green” embossed dial and matching rubber strap. Amongst those in the know, a green dial Aquanaut is a rare, sought-after piece, and with its updated clasp with engraved fleur-de-lis and incredibly smooth open-close action, the watch is perfectly compact and comfortable on the wrist. As a final flourish, the sumptuously decorative CH 28-520 C/528 movement is displayed through the sapphire caseback. A legendary edition of a modern powerhouse.
