Catalogue Essay
The first worldtime wristwatch by Patek Philippe was introduced in the 1930s. Much inspired by the original reference, the present reference 5130 worldtime wristwatch was launched in 2006, replacing the reference 5110. The present watch, encased in white gold, features the classic Calatrava case and is slightly larger in size as opposed to its predecessor reference 5110. The silvered engine-turned dial is fitted with a revolving chapter ring with names of 24 cities and is fitted with a ring-shaped hour hand, in tribute to the company’s first worldtime wristwatch.

The present example is fresh to the market and is presented in exceptional overall condition.
