Patek Philippe

What Patek has achieved with these references is really in a class of its own. Have a nice wee-end you all! (Photos credit: multiple websites) 5110 5110P-001 5110G-001 5510/1G 5510G-Prototype 5110J-001 5110J-001 5110R-001 5130 5130P-020 5130P-015 Mecca 51...  

Very informative.

Love so many, including my own 5230R ...  

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...

And that's precisely why I know that I shouldn't hurry too much, unfortunately...

I’m glad you like the post.

One day, hopefully 🤞🏻

I would probably personally choose a 5110R, though. And the white and rose gold bracelet 5130 look gorgeous (at least the photos do).

But my feeling could be very different in real life.

I’ve just collected the best photos I could find of all of them! 😇

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.

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

But I know that the absence of India's time zone leads some Indian watchlovers to have less interest in this complication.

5130G and R for the Shanghai Maison opening celebration ! Shanghai LEs with 25 pieces each 5131 set from yours truly with spiced up straps 😇 ...  

And what an impressive set of 5131! All so beautiful and well strapped !

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... 

Thnaks for looking.

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

Thanks for looking.

Absolutely stunning

By tatse, though, I would probably go for the rose gold variant. Very personal, of course.

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... 

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.

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

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. ...  

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 knew nothing about this one!

Thank you very much for this addition! Best.
