I have the G, and really enjoy the aesthetics and the combination of complications. A great travel watch for someone who can use more than just a “home time.”

Patek Philippe World Time Chronograph 5930P Review

Patek Philippe World Time Chronograph 5930P Review When we travel, we are usually concerned with the time where we are. If we need to stay in touch with other parts of the globe, a GMT or World Time complication is handy. Putting those two together is not...  

Excellent review Mike …

Without doubt the 5930p is a stunning piece. I had the opportunity to view and try it on in person. The green hand-guilloched dial center is just as vivid as in the photos.

Great review and writing

with OUTSTANDING pics... this line is by far my favorite among PP offerings, it just reminds us how complex still can be simple, if that makes sense, and they have charm and character... the layout of this World Timers is exquisite... thanks for posting!

Interesting history of a WT time dial. Thank you.

This version is quite a pretty, pretty watch. I was not so impressed by the blue one, than with this green edition. Very classy watch.

Thanks for a great post with lovely photos and contents !

I saw this bright green worldtime “monster” in the metal and the dial is very eye 👁 catching ! Love admiring it but this green is too bright for a subtle guy like me. 😅

Ummm... 🤔 , do you mean the new reference of

593”1”P, the unobtainium piece ? 🤣

I never expected Grand Seiko to be this nice….

Patek Philippe should be worried 😂 I have mixed reviews in my head now, cannot wrap my head around Mike reviewing this 😵‍💫

Perhaps I was on drugs (prescription) and my eyes looked like your emoji

but I'm a team player and can appreciate any brand, even if I don't own one. Last time I checked I had about 40 brands represented in my collection, not counting pocket watches. Mike

You’re absolutely a team player and a great collector…

Unlike me who is clueless and an enthusiast or opportunist 😬

Bill asked me to review it . . .

. . . but I travel only in PST, and had to pass.

I almost bought the blue dialed version

But settled for a golden ellipse in platinum instead. Nice looking piece. Best Gatsby

Ah, sorry it didn’t work out that time.

You didn’t feel it is too close to your 5130p? Or you liked the idea of an updated WT with additional chrono complication? The 5230p keeps calling to me.

Not meant for us ;-)

Most probably! ;)

Thanks for the detailed review.

I love this reference and I think it looks kind of sporty. That is why I wear it with a more casual strap. ...  

Superb combo!

thank you for the review

Wonderful review…

…on a wonderful watch. That bold shade of green and the guilloche dial really make a difference.

Did you know? The guilloche pattern

is not 100 % symmetrically on every watch. On some watches it is slightly twisted. This dial (taken from official Patek picture) shows some details. Please take a close look at the pattern at 12 o‘clock. It is not exactly in the middle position. For compa...  

Awesome! The review and the watch!

Interesting review. I am not sure we can consider the Lange One Time Zone as a contender as it is not a World Time. And as we speak of contenders...

We should mention two companies which added the chronograph to the world time ( a rare combination, by the way ) . Jaeger Lecoultre, with the Extreme World Chronograph, since 2006, which means 10 years before the release of the 5930G( ! ) and with the mor...
