Since it was unveiled, some years ago ( 2009 ?, I can't remember ), I never had the opportunity to see one in the flesh. It is not a secret that I am a big fan of world timers, and especially of the Patek World Times, with a preference for the 5110, which...
But in real life not easy to read. Furthermore, it is pretty much "jewellery-like". After a lot of consideration, my favourite remains 5110P. It's the travelling watch I wear on regular basis. Best, Kari
....though I suspect it will become yet another that I admire from a distance. Damn speculation. The waiting list for these is now closed with last delivery scheduled in 2021 I think.
.....that makes me more likely to err for the 5110P to add to my G....a perfect white metal pairing. I am disinclined to go for all 4...... but a pair....uhm, that would be possible. Much to plan for 2015.......
.....the 5975 and 5575....all of them in my view have something which I love. That is, on the wrist, they look absolutely fantastic. I appreciate that there are horological issues at play too regarding movement size, legibility, usefulness of functions et...
Are superb in general. I love 5110P and both of the 5131s. The current 5130 are also very nice. The legibility is no problem for me except the anniversary WT, with the 7175 better than 5575. I'm a huge fan of the patek WT, make no mistake! Regards Tom
This a great iconic watch indeed with a nice 240 (that you'll possess x2) They are not the same watches but I may be thinking you would also go for a Duometre UTC ? Indeed, nice to keep thinking about hunting such a watch. Cheers, Mark
Nicolas- you have opened my eyes to the 5110. Its really beautiful. Although I am also seduced with the Patek 5131 with enamel dial. But the prices are too strong and although I am sure it will become a future classic (it if is not already) I think for th...
It is not perfect when magnifying it. I like the watch a lot as a "curiosity". However, in real life is is a bit difficult to use because it is pretty jewellery-like. Best, Kari
photos again on the dial showing the vibrant colors of the enamel map !! Wishing your dream comes true soon so that your 5110P can have a sibling. Cheers, Gordon p.s. Perhaps you could write a post soon to compare and contrast the 5131 J vs G ?? :-) This ...
You know my sweet spot for the 5110P as well, and I agree with you that the 5131G is not bad either ;-) Many thanks for these nice pics, and many thanks also to the lucky owner of this beautiful timepiece who gave you the chance to share it with us. Best,...
... every time I view a Heures Universailles I have to run for my pills! You say so well: it´s nice to have a great watch in our dreams. This IS my dream. May be some day... Un abrazo mi amigo (and I wait for the future posts and pictures you promise abou...
It is just a question of patience and Financial priorities, but it is not an irrealistic project. And believe me, it is Worth it! All the best, And un fuerte abrazo. Nicolas
