Reference 5968A (steel)
Reference 5968A is the first Aquanaut with a chronograph function. It was launched in 2018 to attract a younger generation of buyers who are looking for bigger and flashier watches. With orange accents and an optional orange rubber strap, the 5968A is certainly a statement piece!
