Among Patek Philippe’s most esteemed timepiece creations are their World Time wristwatches. Highly desired by both collectors and frequent flyers alike, the World Time series is both a brand and crowd favorite. The present wall clock sports a notably familiar design that many Patek Philippe connoisseurs may easily recognize. This is because the clock was cleverly modelled after the reference 5110 and distributed only to the brand’s most prestigious and distinguished retailers as marketing support in anticipation for the 5110’s grand launch in 2000. Featuring an innovative concentric ring design, the clock provides its reader access to the time in every zone of the world at a single glance. An extremely exclusive piece seldom available on the market, this wall clock presents a wonderful opportunity for collectors, Patek Philippe or otherwise, to get their hands on a timepiece nothing short of world class.
