What Patek has achieved with these references is really in a class of its own. 

Have a nice wee-end you all!

The 5110p is stunning indeed.

As usual, my personal preference draws me to the rose gold version. But, building up this post, I was surprised to love the photos of the white gold and rose gold bracelet 5130 (the photo of the 5130/1G-011, in particular, is so seductive). But one of the... 

I couldn't believe you more.

 
By: quattro : October 12th, 2024-08:52
And that's precisely why I know that I shouldn't hurry too much, unfortunately...

A stunner, no doubt.

 
By: quattro : October 12th, 2024-07:01
I would probably personally choose a 5110R, though. And the white and rose gold bracelet 5130 look gorgeous (at least the photos do).

Yes, this complication is great,

 
By: quattro : October 12th, 2024-07:05
even though it leaves some odd time zones aside, like India, which is gmt +5:30. But what I like the most, I think is the case and lug design and profile of the 5110 and 5130.

It's okay...

I've been to India. And I didn't bring my WorldTime. I have other watches to bring to India. Like time only watches.

Yes, of course.

 
By: quattro : October 12th, 2024-08:48
But I know that the absence of India's time zone leads some Indian watchlovers to have less interest in this complication.

Lovely WT watches and another great post ! 👍. Here are 2 More!!

Thank you for this next great post 👍🏼 Nice to see all the different variations

I'm not a superfan of the worldtimer complication. I owned a 5230R but ultimately, the 5110P won my ❤️ It is simply something very special. I like the models with cloisonné enamel, but have never had the desire to own and wear them. They somehow don't sui... 

Nice post

The 5110 is one of my favorites. Just missed one a few months ago at a stupid low price from a dealer I’ve bought from a few times before. Oh well, one day lol

Stunning indeed.

 
By: quattro : October 12th, 2024-15:44
By tatse, though, I would probably go for the rose gold variant. Very personal, of course.

Newer models also become thicker

 
By: m1ti : October 12th, 2024-12:39
The 51xx models are best by far IMO because of the sub-10mm thickness. The 52xx models then go over 10mm and now the 5330 is 12mm. Then you see that the ladies' version is sub-9mm which makes me wonder why Patek intentionally increases case thickness on n... 

Good point.

 
By: quattro : October 12th, 2024-15:50
I personally don't like the fact that the 5330 borrows its case from the 5212A: it dissolves the identity of the world time complication, imho.

Agree

 
By: m1ti : October 12th, 2024-16:27
And I also think double, triple exaggerated stepped lugs on current models (unlike 2497s, 2499s) are not going to age as well as more conventional lug styles

Wow. Awesome post.

 
By: Goh : October 13th, 2024-04:20
So many beauties in 1 post. I had the 5130P before, and now own this 5131G: The Dubai edition is quite special, it is the only 51xx with dark cities ring I think. I also like the 5330G. ...  

Your 5131G is fantastic.

 
By: quattro : October 13th, 2024-05:47
I would personally be so happy with any of the enamel variants (except for the Geneva Harbor which I don’t like so much). Thanks for sharing.

I see above that you have the Manama LE in R - here’s the white metal G -013 ...  

I like this one very much,

 
By: quattro : November 14th, 2024-05:51
both because of Beirut and because of the brown/rose gold color scheme. You’re doing an incredible job digging up all these LE! Congratulations and thank you.

Canadian Edition!

Too bad it didn't have St. John's (actually on the half hour), Halifax, Ottawa/Toronto, Winnipeg to complete the Canadian Time Zones with Calgary and Vancouver.

Did they produce 5130P with Jerusalem as well?

 
By: DOCSF : November 16th, 2024-15:55
They produced 5130G-023 with Jerusalem printed in red and another watch with same reference had Jerusalem printed in gold. I am not sure how many of those were made.

Today - though not an objectively Men’s reference -

I still feel the 7175R special anniversary World Time Moon is one of the prettiest watches in the Patek lineup. Very rare for Patek to implement a photorealistic moon too. Such a beautiful watch ...  

Great variant indeed.

 
By: quattro : November 17th, 2024-16:36
The only thing which bothers me with these 5131 is that to avoid having the brand name on the dial it was engraved on the bezel ("PP" at 12 and "Genève" at 6), a detail which I'm personally not fond of.
