...what is the watch that will be going on holidays with you?

Personally, not having an Aquanaut, I have pulled my RM005 out of the safe.

...is always a though question....
i generally have a lot of troubles in deciding, because i'm always afraid of scratching it, of being robbed, to loose it etc....

Lately i found that the Vulcain Nautical is a good compromise for travelling, alarm is a very useful function when your travel implies lots of appointments and visits to places; it is waterproof and also it is understated and poorly known outside the watch lovers ring....Most likely is the one i'll use this summer.

Ciao from Milano (and nice holiday to ev'rybody)

I had not looked at Vulcain in ages, but I was very pleasantly surprised when I saw that watch! Very nice choice for the holidays.

Back when I was collecting mostly vintage watches, I had a couple of Vulcain Crickets in my collection, and they were lots of fun. I am sure the modern ones are just as much fun!

For the everyday use Aquanaut is my choice, if going to the sea, a Submariner does it ok.

In my opinion, that watch on a rubber strap is probably one of the ultimate summer wacthes, which can easily go with a swimming suite and a summer suit!

Good choice!

When I saw the new Patek Aquanaut Travel Time in Basel I think I'm slightly in love with that watch. And since than I've frequently been searching for photos and information about the Aquanaut. Love it... especially on the bracelet!

Cheers,

Using a watch for what it was made for, you're a man Patrick

Now we're talking! Superb photos Patrick. And what a beautiful watch. The longer I'm a watch aficionado, the more I like... love... Patek. And from all models I think the Aquanaut Travel Time and the Nautilus Chrono are my favorites

Cheers,
Frank

...to look at those photos - I would be too worried about accidentally scraping it against the edge of the pool!!!
