Is Aquanaut hard to get?
The point is, while the Aquanaut is technically Patek's entry-level mechanical watch, it's extremely difficult to enter even if you're ready to buy. You can find one in the secondary market, but there you're no longer dealing with entry-level pricing.3 Nov 2021
Is Aquanaut a good investment?
Patek Philippe Aquanaut watches are more affordable than Nautilus models yet still hold their value significantly, making them a great investment option if you're looking to spend less initially on your purchase. Its design is familiar to the Nautilus too, appealing to fans of the iconic model.
Why is Patek Aquanaut so expensive?
EXCLUSIVITY. Only 50,000 watches from Patek Philippe are produced a year. Compared to other watch brands that produce around 1 million per year, this is a limited amount. The detailed production process of the Patek watch is the reason for this low number.19 Sept 2019
Is the Aquanaut a good watch?
The Aquanaut Chronograph looks better than not only the Nautilus but also most other chronographs. It took some time getting to know the watch in detail, but it has grown on me tremendously. A larger, 42.2-mm case gives the design room to breathe.5 Nov 2018
Is Aquanaut discontinued?
