The GR Factory has unveiled their latest creation: the 38.8mm Patek Philippe Aquanaut series mechanical watches. These include the 5167A, 5168G, and 5167R series, presenting an exclusive custom development of the Patek Philippe Cal. 9015 modified to the 324SC movement. With enhanced functionality and a power reserve of approximately 55 hours, this series addresses market deficiencies and delivers unwavering stability.
Featuring an audacious grenade-shaped design, these watches exhibit a dynamic yet fashionable allure, capturing the spirit of exploration and elegance. The iconic Patek Philippe sporty charm is unmistakable.
The watch case maintains the brand’s rounded octagonal appearance, crafted from 904 stainless steel. Its polished and satin-brushed surfaces create a refined and durable design, with a diameter of 38.8mm and a thickness of 8.9mm. The case and lugs are seamlessly integrated with flowing lines that conform comfortably to the wrist.
The crown is expertly crafted from the same robust steel, employing a screw-down design to ensure waterproof capabilities, while a non-slip pattern enables precise time setting, each timepiece passing rigorous water resistance tests.
The watch straps are made from genuine ‘Tropical’ composite rubber, mirroring the original in comfort and resilience against abrasions, seawater corrosion, and UV radiation. The Aquanaut-style folding clasp is meticulously replicated, complete with chamfering for a genuine feel.
Both the dial and hands feature luminescent effects identical to the original, with a globe-inspired network design and embossed patterns that offer impressive depth. Raised Arabic numeral markers, crafted by hand, align perfectly with genuine aesthetics, enhanced by Superluminova coatings for clear readability even in darkness. Date windows are impeccably aligned, ensuring flawless visibility.
The movement is a bespoke upgrade of the Patek Philippe Cal. 9015 modified to the 324SC caliber. This design promises exceptional reliability, with a power reserve lasting around 55 hours. Impeccable Swiss-style chamfering graces the movement plates, while intricately engraved inscriptions resist wear, enhancing the watch’s intricate texture.
GR’s dedication to craftsmanship guarantees premium quality, focusing on elegance and precision. Explore these timepieces that marry innovation with timeless allure.
