Patek PhilippeWorld Time

Offered by a private collector, this Patek Philippe World Time Chronograph ref. 5930G-001 is presented with its display box, outer box, certificate of origin, leather folder, manuals and booklets. The watch shows some minor signs of wear, and its condition appears within the bounds of the seller’s ‘A’ grading.

The case measures 39.5mm in diameter and offers subtle refinement with its white gold construction. It’s nuanced with stepped lugs that are pronounced with the sharp lines and creases. The watch is function-rich, offering a world time complication alongside a 30-minute chronograph. This is displayed on the dial, which has an intricate guilloche pattern across the centre framed by a 24-hour reference ring and the 24 principal cities that represent the world’s timezones. The small sub-register at 6 o’clock provides a readout for the chronograph.

Turning the watch over, an exhibition case back displays the CH 28-520 HU calibre. This automatic mechanical movement is equipped with a column-wheel chronograph, world time functionality and a 55-hour power reserve. It’s expertly hand finished with Côtes de Genève across the bridges and gold winding rotor and is stamped with the Patek Philippe seal.

The watch is accompanied by a dark blue factory alligator strap paired with a white gold deployant clasp with the Calatrava Cross motif.
