Code: 600290Product detailed description
Patek Philippe Aquanaut Travel Time – Ref. 5164A-001 Steel, Black Dial
The Patek Philippe Aquanaut Travel Time Ref. 5164A-001 brings one of the manufacture’s most practical complications into the distinctly contemporary world of the Aquanaut. Presented in stainless steel with a black embossed dial and matching composite strap, it combines the relaxed character of a sports watch with the sophistication of a true travel complication.
Why choose this model?
The Aquanaut, made for travel
Introduced in 2011, the Travel Time became one of the most distinctive interpretations of the Aquanaut. Its dual-time display allows home and local time to be read simultaneously, while the date follows local time — a thoughtful solution designed around the needs of frequent travellers.
An unmistakable Patek Philippe design
The rounded octagonal case, embossed dial and integrated composite strap give the watch the unmistakable visual language of the Aquanaut. The black palette keeps the overall appearance discreet, while the contrasting hands and applied numerals provide clear definition against the textured dial.
Sophistication in stainless steel
Rather than relying on precious metal, the 5164A-001 expresses its character through proportions, finishing and mechanical complexity. The polished and satin-brushed surfaces of the steel case give depth to its contemporary silhouette, while the patented fold-over clasp completes the streamlined construction.
A movement built around the complication
Inside is the self-winding calibre 26-330 S C FUS, developed specifically to operate the Travel Time mechanism. The local-time hand can be adjusted independently in one-hour increments, while the home-time indication remains undisturbed — allowing the wearer to change time zones without losing track of home time.
Model story. A modern Patek Philippe classic
The Aquanaut was introduced in 1997 as a more contemporary expression of Patek Philippe’s watchmaking philosophy. The Travel Time version took this concept further by combining its distinctive sporty design with a sophisticated dual-time mechanism. Ref. 5164A-001 became the steel interpretation of this concept, pairing practical functionality with the understated character of stainless steel and black composite materials.
