  • Catalogue Essay

    Reference 5130 was launched in 2006, replacing the reference 5110. The present watch encased in platinum features a world time complication. Thanks to the coupling mechanism, the time zone can be instantly adjusted simply by pressing one single button in the band. This eliminates the need to calculate the time difference. As opposed to its predecessor, the reference 5130 is fitted in a classic Calatrava case with a diameter of 39.5 mm. that ensures excellent legibility. What further highlights the reference is the ring-shaped hour hand, which is a reminiscent of the historic Patek Philippe world time watch design.
    Fresh to the market and offered to virtually like-new condition, the present watch is a perfect fit on a traveler’s wrist.
