Both the Aquanaut and Nautilus, in all variants and metals, were 120m water resistance. Patek’s newest releases of the Nautilus and Aquanaut are now just 30m water resistant. I use my 5168 blue Aquanaut during diving, with the confidence it can handle the deepest depths of any recreational dive (100 ft). Now, Patek has verified their intentions for their sports watches to be absolute jewelry and just a hunch of Calatravas on a bracelet. They have guaranteed that it is not a requirement to own a real, capable sports watch from either another manufacture or a previous generation Patek, because what they’re producing now simply cannot be considered a sports watch any longer.

Go check the updated Patek website to see…. 30 fricken meters now. It is ridiculous.
