The reference 5231 continues the brand's longstanding tradition of peak artisanal craftsmanship with its introduction in 2019. This model combines the technical expertise of a world time movement with the exquisite artistry of a cloisonné enamel dial.
Patek Philippe's expertise in world time wristwatches and cloisonné enamel dials can be traced back to their reference 1415 from the 1940s, which featured a variety of beautifully executed cloisonné enamel dials. This model was later succeeded by the reference 2523, which served as an inspiration for the case design of the present timepiece.
The reference 5231 is an updated version of the reference 5131, featuring a larger bezel and faceted lugs that are reminiscent of the 2523 in every way. This offering provides discerning collectors the opportunity to acquire an exquisite masterpiece that showcases Patek Philippe's exceptional mechanical craftsmanship and artisanal design, as exemplified by the stunning cloisonné enamel dial.
