Auction results normally include buyer's premiums, so I'm pretty sure that was it (save of course possible shipping, custom duties, insurance, etc.). Thanks for breaking the news.

This release finally got a recognition it deserves at the latest Sotheby HK auction
A few days ago and please correct me if I'm wrong: someone payed 567K plus 25% or so in HKD for 5110...that's around $91K ...
Hate to be the nerd breaking the news but my two mirror unicorns were
taking part in that auction, so I paid attention. Hence, the best performer didn't go unnoticed either.. I happened to be a proud owner of 5130P and it happens to be my favorite watch, period. It's just I find it fascinating how everything Patek World Tim...
Funny how auto correct follows incorrect spelling...

Yep, WTs are truly iconic in Patek's production history, so I'm sure most references will get a fair recognition....Even the 5230, which was slower to attract attention initially, seems to be gaining more interest now.
The most sought-after WTs of course remain by far those in combination with a rare handcraft, i.e., the 5131 and 5231 iterations (as it's also clear from the secondary market, even for the 5231). My best advice is probably to go for a 5230 if someone want...
One of the greatest watches of this century.
I have been trying to get one for some time. Finally got mine last week. It’s the kind of watch where the sum of all elements come together in a very beautiful and complete way. ...
Yeah yeah I know. But you know that feeling.
You had yours for 15 years and you still have a crush. In the metal I do understand why 110%. My God!
Congratulations!
The 5110 is my only Patek... and I'm perfectly satisfied that way! Because this is a really perfect watch.
Nicolas, you once posted...
a review of the four 5110 flavors. Would you mind sharing the link with us here?
Yes really really nice.
But I was always after that guilloché dark contrast in the middle. Couldn’t get my mind off that since I saw it on someone else’s wrist.
No controversy at all.
Every flavor of the 5110 world time is amazing. Iconic watches displaying timeless beauty.
