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...
Still, there is no WT for me as long as We still have Daylight Savings Time in Europe. I just canβt stand to use a complication that shows the wrong time.
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.
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.
