You definitely seem to be in minority. Everything I have read seems to put the aquanaut as super comfortable.

I know every wrist is different but what makes it uncomfortable for you?

Only thing is the unadjustability, even if you take it off your wrist you can't add another link like on the bracelets as you have to cut the strap so you better not put on any weight, this watch is best for dieters, don't need a weighing machine, just snip away.

keep the aquanaut.
and definitely add full gold RO.
i personally vote for YG...i think this PM is starting to make a big comeback.
but do believe that the right size proportion to your wrist makes a big difference - a fine line between sophisticated cool vs douchey bling.

I wouldn't sell my PP for anything, I think you should wait till you have enough funds to purchase what you want.

I can't imagine wanting to add a 15500 when you already own the 15202. I understand its a different metal, but still. Chrono makes more sense though.

I'd move the 126710 instead of the 5167 though. Because you already have the 16710 and the new Pepsi is redundant...and arguably inferior. Def hold the PP and move the 126710.

Here's an option that probably won't require you to sell anything - a 15300or on a leather strap. There's one on here that's priced at 19k.

I must admit that I am more into the AP design so no Patek for me at this time
