The sporty Aquanaut<\/b> collection has been launched in 1997 following two decades of success by its \u201cNautilus\u201d sibling.
\nThe story began following a special-order in the mid-90s for gifts to be given to best army officers so the design had to be something robust and for action.<\/p>\n

It was intended for a younger customers base but older generation adopted it immediately, becoming an instant success due to its easy-wearability with the new \u201ctropical\u201d rubber strap and bold dial.<\/p>\n

In 2004, the diamond set ladies Aquanaut Luce reference 5067A found favour among the female wrists.
\nTo mark the 10th anniversary the extra-large 40.8mm reference 5167A was introduced and in 2011 the Travel-Time reference 5164A.<\/p>\n

For the 20th anniversary they released the first white gold 40.8mm jumbo size, the reference\u00a05650G Advanced Research Travel Time<\/strong> and two ladies versions; The Aquanaut Luce Haute Joaillerie 5062\/450R and 5072R.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

The present model bears the “Advanced Research” badge and showcases two technical innovations, a Spiromax\u00ae balance spring made of Silinvar\u00ae with inner terminal curve and a flexible mechanism for the setting of the second time zone, which is visible on the left side of the dial.<\/p>\n

The dual-time complication is very simple to use, just press the two pushers on the left side of the case to increase or decrease the hour hand by one hour at a time. Perfect for frequent flyers to keep track of their local and home time coupled by a useful aperture with respective day\/night indicators.<\/p>\n

It is a limited edition of 500 pieces only and is offered with its full original set.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Patek Philippe – Bio<\/b><\/p>\n

Patek Philippe & Co. was founded in 1839, located in Geneva and the Vall\u00e9e de Joux. It designs and manufactures timepieces and movements, including some of the most complicated mechanical watches. It is considered by many experts and aficionados to be one of the most prestigious watch manufacturers.
\nIn 1868, Patek Philippe made their first wristwatch, which was sold on November 13, 1876 to the Hungarian Countess.
\nIt is the last independent, family-owned Genevan watch manufacture with uninterrupted operating history spanning nearly 180 years.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
