DESCRIPTION

  • World Time Minute Repeater

    The first minute repeater that always strikes local time everywhere

    The new Ref. 5531, launched as a limited-edition global debut at the “The Art of Watches Grand Exhibition New York 2017”, has now, become part of the current Patek Philippe collection. For the first time, it combines two complications for which the Genevan manufacture calls the tune: the minute repeater and the World Time display. But while merging these two functions, Patek Philippe also introduced a trailblazing innovation. Unlike other watches of this kind that always strike home time even when the owner is located in another part of the world, the Ref. 5531 always sounds local time, the time in the zone represented by the city name at 12 o’clock on the dial and the time indicated by the minute and hour hands from the center. To engineer this global debut, Patek Philippe developed the new caliber R 27 HU movement with a totally recessed minirotor in 22K gold and further unprecedented design features. As another exception, the two gongs of the minute repeater are attached to the caseband rather than to the main plate.
    The 462-part movement is well protected in an elegant rose-gold case.
    Its caseband and the repeater slide are decorated with a hand-guilloched hobnail pattern, one of the manufacture’s iconic hallmarks. Thanks to the generously pierced lugs, the guilloched decoration can be admired around the entire circumference.
    True to the grand tradition of Patek Philippe World Time watches, the dial center sets the stage for the ultimate in craftsmanship, displaying a motif in cloisonné enamel that depicts the Lavaux vineyards landscape overlooking the shores of Lake Geneva. It is a compact masterpiece of rare handcrafts showcasing a palette of 22 transparent and opalescent enamel paints with a wealth of gentle nuances and hues. The city disk of the World Time display highlights another reminiscence of its Genevan roots: for Central European Time (CET), the name Paris was replaced with Geneva. The 24-hour display in rose gold is divided into day/night zones. The inimitable shape of the pierced hour hand is inspired by the “Southern Cross” constellation.
