Specialist note
Always treated with care and respect, the present timepiece is preserved in almost 'like new' condition and offered with the full set of accessories.
Fresh and clearly aimed at a younger, more adventurous buyer – the Aquanaut was the first model from the Geneva maison to come fitted with a tropical rubber strap – the Aquanaut was sports-luxe before it became a retail buzzword. Though the original reference was a modest 35.6-mm.
Reference 5968
Released in 2018 in a stainless steel case, the Aquanaut ref. 5968A-001 stands out with a remarkable aesthetic appeal. Typified by its striking orange chronograph hands gliding over the small 60-minute register and across the black dial, the contrast is youthful and dynamic. It features hours, minutes, date, chronograph and 60-minute register. The 42.2 mm. case, water-resistant to 120 metres, houses the 32 jewel automatic caliber CH 28-520 C, the movement is visible through the sapphire crystal case back.
