Patek Philippe Aquanaut Travel Time

About this reference

The Patek Philippe Aquanaut Travel Time 5164R-001 in 18k rose gold was introduced in 2016 and remains in current production. Collectors prioritize this reference for its integration of the caliber 324 S C FUS, a self-winding movement featuring a dual time zone mechanism operated by two pushers on the left side of the 40.8mm case. The dial features a brown embossed pattern with gold applied numerals and two aperture-style day/night indicators. This model is noted for being the first precious metal execution of the modern Aquanaut complication, bridging the gap between sports utility and luxury dress aesthetics. On the secondary market, prices typically fluctuate within the low-to-mid six-figure range, often between $150,000 and $190,000 depending on condition and provenance. While the steel 5164A preceded it, the 5164R is produced in lower annual volumes, maintaining high demand among brand loyalists.
