Patek Philippe, World Time, Platinum

Patek Philippe's first watch with a World Time complication was introduced in 1936 in conjunction with Louis Cottier. Allowing the user to view the time in 24 locations simultaneously, it is a complication loved by travellers. Revisited and refined over the years, the latest generation of World Time watches from Patek Philippe allow the local time to be adjusted with a press of a button.

The ref. 5230 was introduced in 2016, the latest in a long line of World Time references offered by the brand. The 38.5mm case is produced in platinum, distinguished by a single diamond set in the case at 6 o'clock. The blue dial features a basket-weave motif in the centre, created via a hand-guilloche technique. The outer ring displays the main city in each time zone, whilst the inner ring displays the time in each corresponding time zone. The watch is fitted to a leather strap with a platinum deployant buckle.

The watch is powered by the self-winding Cal. 240 HU. It boasts a power reserve of 48 hours and features an off-set micro-rotor manufactured in 22ct gold. The movement is visible through a display caseback.

This watch comes complete with Patek Philippe box and Certificate of Origin dated 2023.

Understanding Age & Condition

Our showrooms offer comprehensive selection of pre-owned watches including timepieces which have been discontinued, were of limited production or are now considered vintage.

Each watch within our collection is carefully and thoroughly inspected, refurbished and serviced, where required, by one of our in-house watchmakers to ensure its original lustre is restored to the best of our ability. In each of our pre-owned watch listings we offer an accurate representation of the watches’ condition and our showrooms are always more than happy to provide further photographs or assist with any enquiry you may have.

Understanding Authenticity

A high percentage of our pre-owned watch collection were originally purchased from Prestons. Our clients often utilise our part-exchange or buy-in services as the ideal opportunity to upgrade or sell their timepiece. This means that in many instances we know a watches’ history when it becomes part of our pre-owned collection.

Those wristwatches that were not purchased from us, have their status and provenance checked and authenticated by our in-house watchmakers. This thorough process means that those timepieces which are not accompanied by their original box and documentation, are offered with our confidence and trust as well as our own thirty-six-month guarantee.
