Replica Aquanaut 5164R-001 Patek Philippe Travel Time 40.8 mm, Rose gold

This replica aquanaut 5164R0 gold adds Travel Time dual-timezone functionality to the Aquanaut platform in a 40.8mm rose gold case. The 5164R-001 is one of the more practical complications in the Patek Philippe sport lineup, featuring a second hour hand in a contrasting color that tracks home time while you adjust the main hands for your current location. The gold case paired with a brown tropical composite strap gives this reference a warm, tonal appearance that separates it from the more utilitarian steel versions. At 40.8mm, it maintains the same case proportions as the standard 5167 while housing the additional Travel Time mechanism.

Build Details

• Case diameter: 40.8mm
• Case material: rose gold
• Dial: gold tone with embossed chequerboard pattern
• Crystal: sapphire with anti-reflective coating
• Strap: brown tropical composite rubber
• Movement: automatic Travel Time
• Functions: dual time zone, date, sweep seconds

The Travel Time mechanism is controlled by two pushers integrated into the left side of the case at 8 and 10 o’clock. Each press advances or retreats the local hour hand by one hour, while the home-time hand remains stationary. The date changes in sync with local time.

What Collectors Notice

The 5164 references attract collectors who actually travel, not just those who appreciate the complication aesthetically. The pushers on the case side are slim enough to avoid snagging on cuffs, and the home-time hand in a distinct color provides instant readability without cluttering the dial. Compared to the steel 5164A-001, the rose gold version shifts the entire visual register from tool watch toward luxury travel piece. Both remain in the Aquanaut collection but address different priorities for the wearer.

This vs Other Versions

The 5164R sits between the simple time-and-date 5167R and the full chronograph 5968 in terms of complexity. It offers genuine utility without the visual weight of subdials or tachymeter scales. The rose gold material adds warmth that a steel case simply cannot replicate, and the matching brown strap creates continuity from case to wrist. For those choosing between the standard and Travel Time Aquanaut, the question comes down to how often you cross time zones. This replica aquanaut 5164R0 gold puts that practical complication within reach in the collection’s most refined case material.
