Patek Philippe’s world time wristwatches are among the most distinguished creations of the revered firm. A Louis Cottier patent, the ingenious concentric rings mechanism allows for immediate knowledge of the time in every time zone of the world at a glance. Patek Philippe released a modern incarnation of the world time feature with the introduction of reference 5110 in 2000.

Offered in remarkable condition with its original packaging, this timepiece is an exceptional opportunity for the Patek Philippe collector to own what is, literally, the “greatest” world-time watch.
