5167 & 5711 review and pictures
I've bashed together a small write up and a few snaps to show the details and differences of the two references. I've also thrown in a Rolex to get out the details and dimensions..
In a nutshell the 5711 Nautilus is a classic among classics and the fact that you can't find it at ADs is an indication.
The 5167 Aquanaut must be one of the most comfortable watches to wear. The rubber strap is extremely comfortable.
Both are great sport watches, elegant and understated. Very interesting and small pieces of art and you can't go wrong with either.
Both 40mm and use the same 324 non-hacking movement
The 5167 has a big tasty roman numerals dial. by far the best lume of any watch I've ever owned
The 5711's blue dial needs little introduction, it's simply stunning
Three 40mm sports watches next to each other
The 5711 is very thin and sits very flat on the wrist. next to a £1 coin
Bit thicker is the 5167 and like the 5711 is hugs the wrist and it's pure bliss
5711 compared to a 1680 Sub
Both watches come with a clear caseback so the movement can be enjoyed
Deployment buckle on both - very sturdy and very high quality as it can be expected
5711 on the wrist. 40mm just the right size
This has to be one of the best crafted bracelets on the market. note the 1.5 link I've fitted to get a super comfy fit
5167
So comfy it's unreal
Another 40mm classic
On the arm to get an idea of the size of these two great Pateks
That's it folks, thanks for looking!

Thanks Puffy for a very nice post.
In order really to compare 5167 & 5711, one should take the bracelet version of 5167. Then it is much closer to 5711. I have in my Aquanaut both the bracelet and the rubber strap. It's nearly like having two different watches. I would not say that 571...
Maybe those watches are well known ...
but I appreciated every picture and your thoughts. Thanks, thanks a lot! Oliver
Cracking post Puffy I have been wearing my 5711..
...more than any other watch I own, I nearly got the aquanaut even though I love them I think I made the right choice, your watches look great by the way.
Very appealing picture Puffy :)
Patek steel watches are really something in the collection. Thanks for sharing. Cheers, Mark
I can honestly say...
the 5711 is the most refined and comfortable full SS watch I have ever had the pleasure of owning. My biggest regret is letting it go for a higher complication - huge mistake! Congrats and thanks for presenting such a fantastic trio of SS pieces. cheers f...
Wow, that´s a statement.
"5711 is the most refined and comfortable full SS watch" Even when you compare it to your latest AP 15202? Thanks! Oliver
