Patek PhilippeThe Patek Philippe Reference 5130J-001 is a world-time wristwatch introduced in 2006 as the successor to the Reference 5110. It features a 39.5mm case constructed from 18K yellow gold and is powered by the automatic Calibre 240 HU, which utilizes an off-center 22K gold micro-rotor.
The watch displays time across 24 time zones simultaneously using a rotating 24-hour ring divided into light and dark segments for day and night indication, alongside an outer ring printed with 24 major cities. A pusher at the 10 o'clock position allows the wearer to advance local city and hour indications in one-hour increments. The watch face is a silver guilloché dial with applied gold hour markers. This example is fitted with a brown alligator leather strap secured by an 18K yellow-gold Patek Philippe deployant clasp and is accompanied by its original box, papers, and Certificate of Origin.

Design
- Case and Dial
- The watch is encased in 18K yellow gold with a diameter of 39.5mm. The dial is finished with a silver guilloché pattern and features applied gold hour markers. The world-time display consists of two concentric rings surrounding the center dial: a rotating 24-hour ring with distinct light and dark sectors to differentiate day and night hours, and an outer ring featuring the names of 24 cities representing global time zones.

The movement features an off-center 22K gold rotor to maintain a slender profile. The watch functions as a world timer, allowing the simultaneous reading of time in 24 zones. Users can adjust the local city and hour indication using a pusher located at the 10 o'clock position on the case, which moves the display in one-hour increments without affecting the minute hand.
