Description
Patek Philippe invented the world time complication in a wristwatch and today, after innumerable imitators, Patek Philippe still makes the nicest worldtimer. It’s no surprise – that’s Patek in a nutshell. And this watch in rose gold on the rose gold bracelet – it’s a true stunner!
Solid 18k rose gold case with diameter of 40mm and thickness of 10.4mm. Sapphire crystals front and display back. Button at 10 o'clock advances the hour hand in one hour increments. This allows the traveler the ability to change the time as he or she travels through time zones.
The worldtime index ring on this watch has the cities Riyadh and La Paz, which is unusual. Dial, like the case and bracelet, is stunningly beautiful. Inner area with guilloche is brown-grey with applied rose gold hour markers. The rest of the dial is light grey. Surrounding this area is a ring with numerals '1' through '24' which represent the 24 hours in a day. This ring turns counter clockwise, making a full rotation once every 24 hours. The time in the 24 reference cities, printed in the dial's outermost area, can be seen simultaneously with this world time system. In my opinion, this manner of tracking world time is much better than watches which merely use a 24 hour "GMT" hand, forcing the wearer to calculate world time versus simply reading it at a glance as this watch allows.
Movement is the Patek Philippe Caliber 240 HU with 33 jewels and 48 hour power reserve. The caliber is stamped with the Patek Philippe Seal.
Bracelet is solid 18k rose gold with invisible clasp with flip-lock.
Watch is new with box and papers.
