A. I used to travel with a 16710 until I got the 5164.

For me, the 5164 is the ultimate travel watch. Not only for its easy and intuitive time adjustments (including day/night designations for Home and Away), which don’t require me to remove the watch and fiddle with the crown. It’s also comfortable to wear especially on long haul flights, and it’s stealthy so there’s little concern with safety. It’s also got enough water resistance for the occasional swim, and when I return home the skeleton travel hand tucks away and it becomes a very pleasing piece to wear. Can you tell that it’s my favorite Patek? I have enjoyed it so much that I sold my 16710.

A. Extra hand pointing to second time zone hour B separate dial with second time zone C just a number window for hour of second time time D world timer E don't need any of it I have been through all of them many times(unfortunately) I am leaning towards a...
My preference is B - separate dial..

Two dials, like this one

This Ikepod allows you to set each dial separately, both minutes and hours. This is the best one I have, of about a dozen GMT/2-zone watches. I like my Reverso next best. This might even present too much information -- day/night, offset from Greenwich, po...
The ikepod is very cool

I tried a reverso , but found the second time zone section too small to read.
This would be my go to watch when traveling across

time zones, the 5164. I find the dial uncluttered and very pleasing to the eye. A simple mechanism to set home time and et voila... The skeletonise hour hand can be hidden under the other hour hand and you’ll have a simple time and date watch. ...

My first travel watch is an A. I want also a world timer. I like the city names on a dial. D.
