Pre-Owned Patek Philippe Aquanaut 7968

Patek Philippe Aquanaut ref. 7968/300R-001 is the Aquanaut Luce "Rainbow" Flyback Chronograph, a self-winding rose-gold chronograph with a white mother-of-pearl dial, multicolored sapphire hour markers, and an invisible-set bezel combining baguette-cut sapphires and diamonds. Introduced in October 2022 and now discontinued, it was the first chronograph in the Aquanaut Luce collection and Patek Philippe's first self-winding ladies' chronograph. Its 39.9 mm rose-gold case houses caliber CH 28-520, whose vertical disc clutch allows the central chronograph hand to run continuously as a seconds display. The pusher at 4 o'clock activates the flyback function, while a counter records elapsed minutes. The engraved mother-of-pearl dial carries 12 baguette-cut multicolored sapphire hour markers coordinated with the rainbow bezel. That bezel uses an inner row of 40 baguette-cut diamonds and an outer row of 40 baguette-cut multicolored sapphires, invisibly set to minimize visible metal between the stones. Reference 7968 was delivered on a red composite strap, with matte beige and matte white straps included. Every watch available through The 1916 Company is authenticated and backed by The 1916 Company's 2-year warranty.
