Unveiled in 2018, the 5968A-001 was the first chronograph ever added to Patek Philippe's Aquanaut line, running the self-winding flyback Caliber CH 28-520 C. Its charcoal grey dial is set off by orange chronograph accents on the pushers and hands, worn on a matching orange or black composite strap. As the Aquanaut collection's first chronograph, it quickly became one of the harder modern Patek references to secure at retail.
Key dates.
- Introduced as the first Aquanaut chronograph
- The vertical-clutch flyback chronograph engages the seconds hand without the jump typical of older lateral-clutch chronographs; the orange pusher and hand accents are specific to this dial execution.

How do I check a Patek Philippe 5968A-001 with Watch Safe?
Look up the watch's serial number in the Watch Safe registry to see whether a record exists or a theft flag is attached. A registry search identifies records for a specific serial; it does not authenticate the watch. Authentication is performed in person by an independent expert authenticator, and Watch Safe records and publishes the result.
