Launched in 1997, the Aquanaut was introduced as the younger brother of the Nautilus, the brand's first and only sports watch in its catalogue. A disruptive force, the Aquanaut was the first model in the Patek Philippe collection to be fitted with a rubber strap, one of several innovations the company was counting on to attract a new, young audience.

The very rare feature of this watch lies in the white dial that it mounts. In fact, we are dealing with a dial that has never before appeared on the market; it is probably a prototype that Patek Philippe has never offered in its catalogues.

Accompanied by the original box and guarantee and a replacement black dial, this specific watch is something unique that will probably never appear on the market again and is a great opportunity for all fans of vintage sports watches.
