I enjoy all my PP watches, but WTs have a special place in my heart.....

Currently only 5131J and 5130R in the collection but I love them all. Miss my first one, the 5110J and hope to reunite with it again in the future

Such a great and educational post. Thank you.

PP WTs are some of my favorite PP models. Over the last 19 years I had a privilege to own five of them: 5110J, 5130J, 7130G, 5130R and 5131J. Currently only two are in the collection: 5130R and 5131J....but I must confess that I miss the 5110J and I'm con

You are correct about your observation when you compare it to FPJ and yes, Patek will have the last word.

There are big differences between 18k RG watches from different manufactures. And RG FPJs are much warmer in general..... the overall look is further exaggerated here, because that FPJ also comes with a complete rose gold blasted dial. Per my experience,

Everybody loves the look of the 5110, BUT

IMO it's just too small to do justice on the wrist. If it were bigger, then 1st choice in terms of looks. I ended getting the 5130j first and got so many comments. I thought the 5130r looked better and traded the 5130j for the 5130r. I never got 1 comment

5130J-001 (YG world timer)

PP was my holy-grail of brands to own, which I looked up to in awe. At one time I owned 4, including the YG worldtimer. I started to feel like the grass is greener on the other side of the PP world, so I sold the 5130J-001 it for the "higher-end" 5130R-00

I was never a fan. But that's just me!

Most important is YOU! What do you think about it? I also was surprised this was a manual wind movement. As most people still prefer an automatic on a travel watch. I would highly recommend steering you to a 5110G, 5110P, or a 5130R or 5130P. I find the 5

Would you have any advice concerning a potential choice between the 5110, your 5130 and the 5230?

I've only tried on the 5230G, just before they discontinued it as well as the 5230R: the fit on the wrist of the 38.5mm case (with 46.7mm lug-to-lug) was perfect. But I think I much prefer the "pebble smooth Calatrava case" of the 5110 and 5130. The 37mm

Ahh...

I have a 5110G in the family, I gifted my mother a 5110G (she didn't want the platinum variant since with the silver dial she could choose multiple beautiful colored straps for the 5110G. I personally adore the 5110P, 5130R, and 5130P - my absolute favori

Didn't remember you also had a 5130R, another classy piece of your WT collection! ;-)

And since you expressed an interest in the 5531R, I thought of you when I saw this *5531/1R* being announced by Phillips for their November auction in Geneva... A bespoke version where an R bracelet replaces the strap...in my opinion one of the most beaut
