Launched in 2008, the Patek Philippe reference 5131 is fitted with a cloisonné enamel dial reminiscent of the vintage world time reference 2523, as well as the 1415. Due to the nature of hand-making each enamel dial, the production of the 5131 is extremely low and has an extensive waiting list. As it is handmade, the process required is very time-consuming, therefore, each dial made is considered unique.
