Thanks Nicolas.
It is good to have a world timer back in my collection. As much as I liked the JLC Master World Geographic that I used to have a few years ago I found it hard to read. Between a very busy dial and the fact that I found silver hands against a silver dial a bit difficult to read quickly it had to leave the collection. While the dial on the 5110 still conveys a lot of information, compared to the JLC the relative simplicity of the Patek is a joy.

I made a nice trade today
I decided it was time for my Breguet La Tradition to leave my collection. While there was a lot that I liked about it I found I rarely wore it because I felt it had a confused character. The case style is very classical and for me a bit formal. The face, ...
Welcome to the WT club, my dear Mark!
Yes, you didi well. Not that the Tradtion is not a nice watch, but the WT is a great watch. A.... Wolrd apart. And yes, it is a more versatile character, you will certainly wear it more often. Enjoy, and as I said, welcome to the WT Gang. Best, Nicolas.
Thanks Nicolas.

The JLC cannot compete with this icon, IMO.
Now, you have a reference in the family of WT watches. Best, Nicolas

There are bad trades and then there are good trades. I love the Patek WT and have the same model as you have. I think it is indeed an icon, very simple to read, very wearable and just a pure joy. Congratulations on what I think is a very good trade! Enjoy...
Both are nice
but your new Patek is much more wearable. Well done, congratulations. Best, Kari
Congratulations.........
IMO, you have just got yourself a beautiful Patek. And a complication that has a lot of admirers here. :)
Thanks Topcat.
I agree that the world timer is one of the great Patek complications. Now if they would only make a world timer minute repeater......... : )
Indeed you made ...
a nice trade. Nothing is wrong with the Breguet, but it can´t beat the beauty of the PP 5110 in general. More and more I think this "G version" is my favorite world timer from PP - lot´s of character & understatement at the same time. Congrats! Oliver...
It is funny you use the term understated
The Beguet was certainly not understated. It was the only watch in my collection that would regularly get noticed by non-watch people. I don't expect that will happen with the Patek, which is to my liking.
Congrats Mark!
Crossing timezones with your world time and the time barrier in your time machine car. Great watch, always been a big fan of the 5110! Congrats!
Thanks Patrick
Somehow I think something like this is more appropriate for a Delorean though: ...
I have to admit...
I really love that Omega. Red LED display + 1970's funkiness = Hot

That is a possibility
I should know more about my weekend schedule later tonight. I'm waiting to find out if a close friend wants to celebrate his birthday on Friday or Saturday. I'll shoot you a email or call later tonight.
