Patek PhilippeThis Patek Philippe Aquanaut, reference 5168G-010, is a self-winding wristwatch featuring an 18K white gold case measuring 42.2mm. The timepiece is characterized by its khaki-green gradient dial, which is embossed with the signature checkerboard pattern of the collection and equipped with applied luminous Arabic numerals and baton markers.
The watch incorporates a date display at the 3 o'clock position and is powered by the self-winding Caliber 26-330 S C, which provides approximately 45 hours of power reserve. The case construction includes a satin-brushed bezel, polished flanks, and a screw-down crown. The watch is worn on a matching green rubber strap and is accompanied by factory documentation, including a Certificate of Origin dated 2020. This reference is colloquially known among collectors as the 'Khaki Green Jumbo' due to its distinct color profile and larger case dimensions within the Aquanaut line.
