… and the right time, anywhere in the world
Patek Philippe’s new World Time Minute Repeater Ref. 5531R is about as epic as grand complications get. Granted there are watches that combine world time and minute repeater functions, but they sound home time. This timepiece, on the other hand, is the first ever minute repeater that strikes local time in all 24 reference time zones – a true horological feat made possible with the Genevan manufacture’s new self-winding calibre R 27 HU movement, which comes with a 22K gold micro-rotor. The watch isn’t just a mechanical masterpiece; it also boasts a display of top craftsmanship that the house is known for. A cloisonné enamel dial, made up of 22 transparent and opalescent enamel paints, illustrates a picturesque Swiss landscape: the terraced vineyards of Lavaux, a UNESCO World Heritage site, along the shores of Lake Geneva.
