  • Catalogue Essay

    - The reference 5930 merges two of Patek Philippe’s most coveted and desirable complications: a world time with a chronograph. Patek Philippe has a long history with world time watches. It was in fact one of the very first brands to embrace this complication as early as the beginning of the 1930s. Three vintage references were serially produced until the early 1960s, then no more world time wristwatch left Patek Philippe workshops until the 1990s. The reference was then rediscovered and has since been present in the Patek Philippe catalogue and has carved itself a special place in the hearts of Patek Philippe collectors.

    - The present watch strikes the beholder with its elegant dial. A discreet silver fixed ring with the chronograph fifth of a second divisions has been added between the mobile city and 24-hour rings, and the 30 minutes counter is placed at 6 o’clock. In a final touch of sophistication, the central disc of the dial is decorated with a superbly executed guilloché pattern.

    - Preserved in excellent condition, the 5930 offers a unique mix of complications. It is offered with its Patek Philippe Certificate of Origin dated May 29, 2019, hang tag, product literature, presentation box and outer packaging.
