About 5230 World Time

I’m hoping that the long time forum members can provide inputs on this particular model as I’m close to pulling the trigger.

Not really concerned about the perceived desirability of the said timepiece. I definitely love the look and utility of this timepiece. And this is accentuated by the fact that I’m traveling at the moment.

Just some of my thoughts though:

1. May not be as practical as the 5164a since the 5230 is a leather watch

2. Could be redundant in my collection

3. The size is just right to my wrist compared to the smaller 5110 and the bigger 5139

Thanks and have a great day!

I have owned this reference for about a year now, and I really love it.

During my ownership period, I have to say that my affinity for it has only grown stronger. The size is excellent, it’s complication is most useful if you need to keep track of more than 2 time zones, the lugs are the most interesting (my opinion) of the o...
