## Caption

Em-bossing it! The Patek Philippe Aquanaut reference 5065 earned the nickname ‘Large Aquanaut’ and it definitely has presence! It was in production from 1997 to 2006.

This watch is super-light on the wrist, thanks to the embossed rubber strap, a motif which is echoed from the dial for a cohesive effect, off-set by a fine yellow gold case.

This example from 2000 is on offer in this week’s Watches Weekly Geneva sale with an estimate of CHF 40,000 - 60,000.
