Agreed on the same purpose but different complications. It was not a comparison, but a tentative of an explanation. ;) [nt]

Travel time in a “Calatrava” case
I find this one a very unusual but yet beautifully designed piece. This ref. 5134P was actually the second Patek I purchased for my collection and the only “Travel time” watch available at that time. The Platinum one is the only to have a very modern and ...
Hi Kari,
As you noticed I went with a dark brown matte band... How about yours, have you moved from the original (a bit too serious IMO) black one?
Patek has been very good to me.
I have, for each and every watch, at least 5 different bespoke straps made to my measurements. If I remember correctly, my 5134P wears at the moment a blue strap with grey stitching. Best, Kari
Very nice!
I also prefer by far this dial respect the other case material versions. The contrast between the font of the subdials numbers and the fresh modernity of the dial is amazing! This model has my favorite 2nd time hand, so essential... Thanks for sharing thi...
But Nic.
We’re talking about two different watches... One a travel time and the other a world time, same purpose but a total different complication. I agree with you the 5110 is a beautiful watch... But it would be like comparing a sport coupe car with a luxurious...
Very cool watch. I also like this version most compared to the other. Very modern and clear dial. Congrats!
37 mm? How does it wear? More like a small watch or does the weight of the PT give a palpable presence on the wrist?
Hello Cayenne,
Yes a good size considering the case shape. Comfortable to wear and the platinum gives it the right satisfying weight. Best
I love the travel time complication and how unusual it is to have the dual push buttons on the case
I also really like the case shape and size. I had a 5134g (last edition) which I traded for a 5110p but I'd get a 5134 again in a heart beat. I'd love to see them come out with another version for this complication (other than in acquanaut and nautilus st...
Hi G, this Calatrava travel time matches your Calatrava MR well !
The design of this travel time, especially the outer ring (covered in a light gray color) on the dial, reminds me of the 5205. It is a stylish and functional watch. Enjoy it often ! Cheers, Gordon
You’re right Gordon
That detail on the dial does resemble the one on the 5205. This one though, due to the simpler layout, is not busy. 😉
That's a really nice model
We recognize another period from Patek with great pleasure (together with the 5127 for instance), especially since this is not a watch we see often anymore. Tastes evolve in a way and sometimes back the other way, we never know what will be the trend in e...
