Patek Philippe Aquanaut: Prices, waiting lists, models & history

The Swiss luxury brand Patek Philippe, with its headquarters in Geneva, was founded in 1839 by the Polish nobleman Antoine Norbert de Patek. How was the luxury brand’s world-famous Calatrava model created? When the Aquanaut was launched in 1997, it caused a sensation. The watch was young, modern and surprising. Its case, a rounded octagon, was inspired by that of the Nautilus. It has a “tropical” strap, the bracelet is made of a new, very durable composite material. Even salt water and ultraviolet rays do not harm it.

The Patek Philippe Aquanaut is the second sports watch from the Geneva-based manufacturer Patek Phillipe. It has a water resistance of up to 12 bar and is characterized by a special attention to detail and excellent quality. The soft octagonal bezel creates a constantly changing light by alternating polished surfaces. The unique dial decoration takes up the smooth shape of the case and gives the Patek Philippe Aquanaut a dynamic appearance.

The Swiss luxury brand Patek Philippe, with its headquarters in Geneva, was founded in 1839 by the Polish nobleman Antoine Norbert de Patek. How was the luxury brand’s world-famous Calatrava model created? In 1887, the Calatrava cross became the official symbol of the Geneva watchmaking factory. A devout Catholic, founder Philippe knows the meaning of the symbol: The cross is the symbol of the Order of Calatrava. It was founded in 1158 by the Catholic Church, whose members saved the Spanish castle of Calatrava from Arab invasion. The symbol now adorns the winding crown, case back and clasp of Patek Philippe watches.

In 1932, Patek Philippe named the Calatrava model the most popular watch model. When the first model of the series was built, the Bauhaus style determined the modern design language. The watch is characterized by a clear dial, simple indices and a narrow bezel. The Calatrava radiates elegance and simplicity. The Calatrava has been worn for generations as a men’s watch as well as a ladies’ watch. The Calatrava has clear lines and is the essence of a round watch.

After Rolex had presented existing models of the most important models for a long time, Sky-Dweller’s display, which appeared as a brand new model, surprised many people. Rolex Sky-Dweller was launched in 2012 and its movement is protected by 14 patents. At the Basel International Watch and Jewellery Show 2014, Rolex added further models to the existing range. Similar to Day-Date, Rolex Sky-Dweller only offers precious metals: 18-carat gold, platinum and Everose gold.

Idea of the Sky Dweller

Sky-Dweller is an elegant watch for world travelers with two simultaneously readable time zones and an annual calendar. The reference time is indicated by the 24-hour display on the off-center dial, while the conventional hand in the center indicates local time. The annual calendar, called Saros, automatically distinguishes 30-day and 31-day months, controlled by a patented mechanism, and has a new display function: the month is shown in twelve windows on the outer edge of the dial – the current month is shown in red. The automatic date change depends on the local time. These features make the Sky Dweller a popular model of the luxury company.

New Model 2020

This year, Rolex refined its Sky Dweller watch range. There are now 18 models of Sky Dweller, including all the colors you can imagine. The elegant and simple design refines the idea of the watch.

Rolex Submariner: Prices, waiting times and model

Hans Wilsdorf, the founder of the luxury company Rolex, launched the first Rolex Submariner in 1953. The watch was designed as a diver’s watch for sportsmen and has since become a watch icon. Elegance and sportiness: that is the hallmark of the Submariner. The first model of the Rolex Submariner 16613 is characterized by a blue dial and silver case. Meanwhile the Submariner has become one of the most popular and well-known models of the watch company. In 2020 several new models of the watch were released, including Submariner with gold, black, green and silver accents. Compared to other Rolex watches, the Submariner is among the cheaper models, with a current value starting at around 7,350 Euros. The current waiting period for the Rolex Submariner is 3-5 years.

The long waiting time of the new Rolex model is a test of patience for many watch lovers. But why can many models only wait a long time? In previous years, waiting lists were indeed created due to production-related delays. Today, manufacturers control their production data very carefully, especially for exclusivity purposes, which limits the models that are in high demand. You as a buyer will benefit from this, because the fewer watches there are on the market, the higher the value of each model and the higher its resale value.

Models, Materials & Trademarks

The main feature of the Rolex Submariner is its rotating bezel. What is it for? The bezel is for the diver who can read the exact dive time on the engraved 60-minute graduation and control the decompression time. Also, the Cerachrom ceramic dial of the bezel is very scratch resistant. To ensure that the watch is easy to read even in low-light environments, the capsule has been filled with luminous material from the triangle of the zero mark. The outer edge of the Submariner has been equipped with serrations so that the diver can operate the watch even underwater. In the following we will introduce you to the different models of the Submariner!

Rolex Submariner x James Bond

Besides the name ‘Rolex Submariner’, the watches also bear the name ”James Bond”. Do you ask yourself why? In the first four films – “James Bond chases Dr. No”, “Love Greetings from Moscow”, “Goldfinger”, “Fireball” – the super agent 007 wore Rolex watches. Since then they have become one of his trademarks.
