Patek Philippe Aquanaut Chronograph 5968G-001
A modern icon reimagined in white gold — the Aquanaut 5968G-001 blends technical sophistication with sporty elegance, creating a chronograph that is both bold and refined.
Design & Materials
Crafted from 18k white gold, the 42.2mm case exudes understated luxury while maintaining a robust, masculine presence. The signature khaki green dial features an embossed checkerboard pattern — a hallmark of the Aquanaut collection — with applied white gold numerals coated in luminescent material for readability in low light.
The matching green composite strap not only completes the look but also provides excellent durability and resistance to salt water and UV rays. The patented fold-over clasp ensures both comfort and security.

Inside beats the self-winding Caliber CH 28‑520 C, a column-wheel chronograph movement with a vertical clutch. This setup allows for smooth and precise operation of the chronograph seconds hand, which can run continuously without affecting accuracy.
