Overview

The Aquanaut Travel Time 5164R-001 takes Patek Philippe’s modern sports design language and adds one of the most practical complications you can have on the wrist: a dual time zone display. In this version, the 40.8 mm rose-gold case is paired with a rich brown dial and brown rubber strap, creating a warm, contemporary aesthetic that balances sportiness and elegance.

With local and home time display, separate day/night indicators and a date linked to local time, this Aquanaut is built from the ground up as a serious travel watch – but one executed in unmistakably Patek Philippe fashion.

Design & Wrist Presence

The 40.8 mm rose-gold case gives this Aquanaut Travel Time a strong yet refined presence. The rounded octagonal bezel, satin-brushed and polished surfaces and curved lugs create a distinctive silhouette that is instantly recognisable without being loud or aggressive.

The brown dial features the signature Aquanaut embossed pattern, bringing texture and depth to the surface. It includes:

• central hours and minutes

• sweeping central seconds

• local and home hour hands

• a date display at 6 o’clock, linked to local time

• day/night indicators for both local and home time

Applied numerals and hands stand out against the dial for clarity, while the overall colour palette keeps the watch relaxed and warm.

The brown rubber strap echoes the dial’s embossed motif, visually tying the whole design together and making the watch genuinely comfortable and practical for daily wear, travel and warm climates. The folding clasp in rose gold secures the watch firmly on the wrist and adds an extra touch of refinement over a simple pin buckle.

Despite the precious metal case, the watch retains a clear sports character: the strap, screw-in elements and overall geometry make it feel purposeful and ready for real-world use.

Movement & Travel Time Functionality

At the heart of the 5164R-001 is the in-house Calibre 324 S C FUS, an automatic movement designed to integrate Patek’s Travel Time dual time zone system. According to your data, it offers:

• automatic winding

• hours, minutes and sweeping seconds

• second time zone (home time) on a separate hour hand

• local time on the main hour hand

• date display linked to local time

• day/night indicators for both local and home time

• an approximate 35-hour power reserve

The Travel Time system is one of the most intuitive in high-end watchmaking: typically, separate pushers allow you to move the local hour hand forwards or backwards in one-hour steps while the home-time hand continues to track your reference time. Day/night indicators make it easy to see at a glance whether it’s AM or PM at home and at your current location.

The movement is visible through the open caseback, showcasing the finishing, rotor and architecture of the calibre. This transparency underlines that, despite its sporty, rubber-strapped appearance, the 5164R-001 is still a fully fledged Patek Philippe at heart.

With a water resistance rating of 120 m / 12 bar, the watch is built to handle swimming and water-related activities in addition to everyday wear—very much in line with the Aquanaut’s “contemporary sports” positioning.

Who is this watch for?

• frequent travellers and business executives who need a second time zone on the wrist in a clean, intuitive format

• clients who want a Patek Philippe that can genuinely be worn as a daily watch, including in warm climates and near water

• collectors seeking a rose-gold Aquanaut that is more versatile and practical than a pure dress watch, but more luxurious than a standard steel sports model

• enthusiasts who value Patek’s dual-time engineering and want it in a modern, 40.8 mm sports case with a rubber strap rather than a classic Calatrava

FAQ

Q1: What is the “Travel Time” function in the Patek Philippe Aquanaut 5164R-001?

A1: The Travel Time system allows you to track two time zones at once: local time and home time, each with its own hour hand and day/night indicator. Local time can typically be adjusted in one-hour jumps without stopping the movement, making it extremely convenient when you land in a new time zone.

Q2: Is the 5164R-001 suitable for swimming and water activities?

A2: According to your specifications, the watch is rated to 120 m / 12 bar water resistance, which is generally considered sufficient for swimming and most recreational water activities. As with any luxury watch, we recommend ensuring the seals are checked periodically and avoiding operation of pushers under water.

Q3: How does the rose-gold case wear with a rubber strap?

A3: The combination of a 40.8 mm rose-gold case and a brown rubber strap gives the watch an unusual balance: visually luxurious but physically comfortable and practical. The strap helps the watch sit securely and lightly on the wrist, while the gold case delivers the expected sense of weight and refinement.

Q4: Is the movement visible?
