The unmistakable design of the Patek Philippe World Time, Reference 5110 has been inspired by the World Time watches from the 1930s, which regularly fetch record prices at auctions. Readability has been optimized with a light and a dark zone on the 24h disk (day/night display); the outer display also shows local time and all 24 international time zones simultaneously.
