I'm not a bracelet guy either, but ...
... I wouldn't have the 5131-1/P-001 any other way. Except for my wife's various 24/7's and my Nautilus pieces the only other Patek Philippe watch I have with a bracelet is 5180/1G-001. I don't really know but it seems like the designers put a lot of thought into the question of strap vs. bracelet and for the most part I think they get the answer right.
My Patek world time watch collection
I like Patek world time watch very much. 5131/1P is my favorite world time watch. Which world time watch model is your favorite world time watch? ...
The way that I look at it is....
.....each of those watches are so different that it really is like comparing different references across all. I think all of them are extremely special. If you asked which would I like most for myself if i was only allowed one, then it would be the 5131P....
love 5131/1P
I try other world time models after I take 5131/1P off from my wrist. I always want to wear 5131/1P again, especially the summer time.
incredible!
Very nice. My favorite is actually the one I do not see above! 5131J! But they are all so wonderful frankly.
The Chinese or Asian phrase “Money/Wealth is afraid of cold” 😬
Meaning they like to stay together and accumulate so they gets warmer 😂 You are definitely “Worldthy” of these great time pieces....jaw dropping collection. No favorites for me, any one will do. Congratulations! Rgds Raymond
Feel cold in winter
It will get warmer when you wear the metal bracelet watch for a while.
Great question ! For me it is a simple answer, my favorite reference is 5131 because of the enamel dial and with this thinking ...
R is my choice! If I can create a new reference, I would combine all three with R's dial, P's case & bracelet for the heft, and 5575 for the moon, a "grail" WT "5531" Cheers, Gordon
Nicolas, you do not like the P bracelet because it ...
1) is too heavy, 2) does not match the watch well, and/or 3) makes the watch unnecessarily expensive ? Or other reason?
Hope PP makes better bracelet.
There is one thing that I don't like the bracelet is his buckle. A little difficult to use. I prefer Rolex buckle. Overall 5131/1P looks quite nice to me.

right decision
I think PP designer made a right decision to choose bracelet instead of leather strap. Bracelet is very useful and unique. This makes 5131/1P very different from other 5131 models.
not too heavy for me
The price of 5131/1P is much higher than other 5131 models. I don't like the price too, but it is a nice watch to collect and wear it every day.
5131G is nice too.
I used to like 5131G the best before I have R and P. Now I change my mind.
Wonderful collection.
As to a favourite, well you always want what you can’t have so I vote P. They are all winners.👍
Love world time watches
It tooks me around 8 years to collect these wonderful watches.
5131P
Does anyone know if the lugs for this watch will be suitable for a leather PP strap? Any lucky owners tried to fit a leather strap so far?
I will try it.
I ordered yellow leather strap. I will try it when I receive the new strap.
To choose between the WTs
All of the above are very special in their own ways. The 5131/1P is quite different with the portrayal of the Arctic polar cap. The 5131R has a special warmth to it with the Pacific Ocean dividing Asia/Australia from the Americas.
What a tremendous PP world time collection
My favourite is 5575. I find the moonphase is really stunning and unique to be shown on the main dial
Speechless...
truly magnificent collection! my favorites are 5575, 5131 G & P. if i had to choose only 1, then 5575 by a very thin margin. i love the case & lugs design of the 5575. they're all winner IMHO enjoy them in great health. cheers
I heard many young collectors like 5575G a lot. [nt]
I enjoy 5575G too. Nice black dial.
