Some serious heavy hitters🔥👌

Of the three the world time is my favorite. I had the 5130R, the enamel pieces have always been out of my reach.

Thank you so much, dear Gordon,

for sharing the very interesting article full of information. Of course, having Anita Porchet's signature is a major bonus and almost a "must-have". Concerining the 5531, I happen to like the maps more than the landscapes: my personal favorite would be th

Thank you for sharing your thoughts.

I have contemplated a 5110 vs 5130 vs 5230 on multiple occasions. They each have their own unique charm and appeal. If I could combine elements of all 3, it would be ideal. But obviously I can’t so my indecision, coupled with the fact that I don’t have a

Why?

Maps of the World

Among the new pieces in Patek Philippe 's Rare Handcrafts collection, two share a close common point : a map of the world combining engraving and enamel . A/ CALATRAVA MINUTE REPEATER AND WORLD TIME REF. 5531G-010 “PLANISPHERE” This reference is a limited

Yes, I agree: even judging by Gilbert Albert's own standards, it's far from his most successful creation.

But that's not the point: the point is Louis Cottier's creativity, which, as the recent 5249R-001 Crow and Fox also reminds us, extended well beyond the World Time complication to which he is generally reduced. And then, when you think about it: a manufac

The “Cobra”

The Patek Philippe Ref. 3414 is nicknamed the “ Cobra ” because it was the main source of inspiration for the modern Urwerk UR-CC1 King Cobra . This wristwatch , with its dual linear display of hours (at the bottom) and minutes (at the top), wad designed
