Honestly DC, my white dial 5711 gets the most wrist time out of all PPs, second to it is the white dial 5227.. my Aquanaut has been sitting in my box for a very long time..

The Aquanaut used to be a box queen for me too, hence nearly selling it several times, but over time I found the Nautilus getting less attention because of its unconventional styling. Still love it, and maybe a better dial version would help?!
It's definitely more special feeling than the Aquanaut, no question, but for every day wear I dunno, I always seem to pick the Aquanaut now!
With any luck the new Nautilus (should it ever arrive) might be the ticket!!

I was wearing subs for a bit, even with rubber straps, because I felt I was a one-watch pony wearing my Aquanaut all the time. But even when I felt the Tudor was hitting a lot of things for me that the Aquanaut has (mainly rubber strap, great looking piece), I threw the Aquanaut on for kicks and was just in awe of it. Feels good, thin, the dial looks amazing, and the design of the watch is unique and beautiful.
@Nivka when do you get yours back?

That's funny: those are exactly the only 3 ones that I kept, all the rest is sold!
Hey guys.. I am not selling my Aquanaut, I still love it, and will be wearing it for a very long time.. May I kindly ask you not to contact me to ask me if I want to sell it to you..
It's a bit overwhelming really lol

@majwilliams0308 not for a while. it's just cleared customs and is on its way to strodda. He needs to send the crystal to Prof for him to 2xAR, which will be the rate limiting step. The relume shouldn't take too long. I'm not holding my breath; a couple of months wouldn't surprise me. Probably just in time for the V6f to be released as a super rep ootb lol

Pictures do not do it justice, I'm sure you will love it, but mine will still be better ahaha, the one from Toro has steelinox engraved on the back of the clasp which I had polished and removed since it's supposed to be a white gold watch not SS, the bracelet also came installed the opposite way which I also took care of, there is also no model number on the back of the bracelet which I had custom engraved for me now it's 1:1 to the real watch, and even the clasp lock had the Patek Phillipe logo as a stamp rather than an engraving like it should be, I was gonna order the BP clasp and install it on mine but luckily I had my jeweler polish the stamp and engrave it properly, now it's more of a Franken but I love it so much, even it's not that light for a watch some people thought it's actually white gold after they saw the 750 stamp
only issue for me would be something so small I suspect as a scratch on the rotor screw but that should disappear after I send it for a full service and polish later on with @Strodda if he actually replied otherwise I'll have to go with someone else
