This is the only source article I could find referencing these quirks:

I bought a second hand 5167 earlier this year with Box & Papers and only realized it was this earlier model after searching for why my Aquanaut did not have Swiss Made on the dial. Not sure if I am lucky or unlucky, but I do love the Aquanaut. It's a perfect casual watch.

Lucky find......

Thanks for sharing....
