For the first time, the Patek Philippe Reference 5230P-001 World Time combines a platinum case with a blue dial and matching strap. Its dial shows a new manually guilloched circular pattern inspired by the Ref. 5110 (2000), the first watch fitted with the patented World Time mechanism.
The Patek Philippe Reference 5230 World Time watch was introduced in 2016. It houses the self-winding Caliber 240 HU with a power reserve of 48 hours.
Water-resistant to 30 meters, this platinum watch with a 38.5 mm diameter case is fitted on a navy blue calfskin strap.
