Patek Travel Watches: 5110 World Time or 5134 Travel Time?
The 5110 made its appearance in 2000 and was replaced in 2006. The Travel Time 5134 arrived in 2001 and discontinued in 2008. The 5110 is a world time, which means that it gives the time of 24 cities in the world, while the 5134 is a Travel Time, giving a...
I have a lot of experience on both
but can't make up my mind. Naturally, the Worldtime is "cooler" while the Travel Time is more readable. One vote both. Best, Kari
Same here. 5110, especially in Pt.
Still, there is no WT for me as long as We still have Daylight Savings Time in Europe. I just can’t stand to use a complication that shows the wrong time.
This definitely troubled me.
When I owned a 5110, I used to show it off to friends, explaining that it shows the correct time all around the world, except not during most of the year.
5110 🤗 But...
The 5134 is still an excellent reference, extremely underrated. I've been considering it a few times in the past, but currently there's no room for it in my small collection.
Yes, you're right, but still quite unbalanced
I believe could be more popular with an updated dial, I see a lot of potential 🤔
I guess I’m in the rare camp of 5134!
I feel like it’s more legible and useful for my travel needs.
It has to be the 5110 (but G not P as the center of the dial is more readable in white with the G)
The 5134 looks like a Grand Seiko :-0
5134
The world timer is too busy with the blue pattern dial. The 5134 is more eligible with better proportion.
This is a dilemma I was facing a while back , the WT more elaborate, the TT easy on the eye and more practice...
5110 for me , but probably the G . Thank you my friend for bringing up this comparison.
reflecting on the picture of the 5110 above...
Is that a limited edition? It has Jerusalem instead of Cairo on mine, and a different spelling for Dacca. Also, the end of the strap is "curved" between the lugs to follow the shape of the case: a small difference but a nice one.
5110P for me...
But find the 5134P very intriguing... just not same caliber piece....
If...
the 5134P housed a 240 base caliber instead I would have voted 5134... automatic make more sense to me on a travel time piece...
Ok, I'll play...
The 5110, due to the lineage of the PP world times, easily wins for bragging rights of a complication, however, for practical purposes, I prefer the 5134 for these reasons: (1) the cleanliness of the dial makes it easier to see and read, especially for mo...
The world time watches of Patek are iconic and functional in today's world. My opinion. 👍
Beautifully done. Here are it's ancestor on display in Singapore. Thanks for sharing Nico. Cheers 🍻, friends. Geross ...
BOTH ARE BEAUTIFUL!!! I want both in my collection.....
The famous Patek historian (Nicholas Faulkes) wrote an article on the fabulous 5107 where he said a perfect collection could be - 5107, 5035, 5110 and 5134. I have been following this guy's words with the additional of his recommendations. The 5134 is a w...
5110 is certainly sexier.
But the 5134 complication is more practical in a watch you really travel with. Another good example with this complication is the 5164, a great travel watch.
The 5110 is romantic.
But as someone who uses a Reverso GMT when I travel, the 5134 gets my vote as a more functional watch. If it was 5110 vs 5164 what would people vote. A PP travel time that I can jump in the pool. The 5164 has your contemporary look too.
In the confusing world of DSTs and BSTs and what not, I never got the hang of using a world timer properly so......
Purely for functionality I would choose 5134..... no doubt that 5110 is a beauty and iconic watch but for me has no function
