Patek Philippe, Aquanaut Luce, 5261R, Grey Dial, Annual Calendar, Moon Phase, Rose Gold, Rubber Strap, 40mm

The Patek Philippe, Aquanaut Luce, 5261R-001 merges sporty chic with refined complications in a versatile luxury watch.

Its 40mm 18k rose gold case blends polished and satin finishes, offering a balanced yet distinctive wrist presence.

The rounded-octagon bezel and integrated design honour the Aquanaut heritage while lending a modern feel.

The grey dial features the Aquanaut’s signature embossed pattern, which adds subtle texture and depth.

Rose gold applied numerals and baton-style hands with luminous coating ensure clear readability day or night.

The dial displays an annual calendar with day and month hands, a moon phase at 12 o’clock, and a date aperture at 6 o’clock — delivering practical complexity without clutter.

Inside the case beats the automatic Calibre 26-330 S QA LU, a sophisticated movement that powers the calendar, moon phase, and swept seconds, offering a power reserve of roughly 35 to 45 hours.

A sapphire crystal case back reveals the finely finished mechanics beneath.

The watch is fitted with a grey-blue composite rubber strap patterned after the Aquanaut motif and secured by a rose gold fold-over clasp, combining comfort, durability, and elegance.

With a water resistance rating of 30 metres, the 5261R-001 balances everyday wearability with Patek Philippe’s reputation for craftsmanship.

With its blend of rose gold, textured dial, practical complications, and sporty strap, the 5261R-001 is a refined choice for those who want a watch that pairs technical sophistication with casual yet luxurious style.
