The only thing that worries me is the thickness, it is 10mm thick, thats way too much. As the Aquanaut is known for being a very slim watch, I want to be as close to the gen thickness as possible. Is there a good thin version?

It's not as important as the Nautilus being thin, as it is more of a casual watch. I highly doubt you would notice 1.5mm constantly. there won't be a version that thin because the factories can't make movements like Patek
Okay Thankyou ^^ If I understood it correctly, the sw200 is only a movement, right? The watch itself is from B6F. Is there a version with a miyota or sth? I just payed enough for a nautilus that I can't wear and don't want to spend another 400 bucks on the 5167...
Do you know whether the RG version comes with the brown rubber strap? If not, anyone can lead mento where I can get one? Thank you so much.
As far as I know it doesn't come with the brown rubber and Godfather is searching for one but couldn't find it, correct me if I am wrong. I guess a good brown rubber strap is hard to come by at the time.
I just think that RG with a black strap is a dead giveaway. I wonder what other strap options can be used. Any suggestions?
The RG comes with great brown rubber strap. I made the change to perlon purely for looks and style. Now the brown rubber is backon. And it's very comfortable
Thank you. I just received QC pictures of the RG watch and comes with black strap. TD also confirmed that no factory makes brown rubber straps anymore.
Don't know what to do now.
Why is it a dead giveaway? The website shows a black rubber strap on or am I missing something. Anyway regarding your watch see if you can change the watch you want to buy?
Nvm ignore that. Picture looked black but the description said chocolate brown.
Although in this picture, the strap looks really black. Took it off chrono24 which I believe is quite reputable. Feel free to correct me anyone

Is there a good, thin version except the sw200?
Excuse the wrong info that I had mentioned earlier.

The SW200 and A2824 should be near identical thickness. A Miyota version may be thinner, but see Godfather's mention of it in the first post.

Hey there Limer, I thought I should just let you know. I ordered my PP aquanaut from PT and they claimed to that mine is the chocolate brown rubber strap. I'll attach QC pictures below (have accepted it already). It still looks black to me but I definitely trust them of course haha. +/- 1sec/day and waterproof tested as well.
FYI ignore the dirt at 4 o'clock. It has since be cleaned
Hey! Thank you for the info.
What a marvelous piece... FYI I downloaded one picture and increased the color saturation, the strap is def brown How much was it?
Wear it in good health!
Would be nice if you post a wristie in [MENTION=102925]Godfathar[/MENTION] patek thread from time to time

Oh wow thanks! Didn't know that could be done haha. Anyway it cost me 348USD. I have attached the website below if you're interested. I got the Undecorated movement as recommended by Godfather. I'll definitely post a wristie after receiving it and sizing it to my wrist
