Reference 5130R-020 Munich Edition was produced in limited quantities of 25 pieces in both 18k white gold and 18k pink gold. The limited edition reference was only available for sale in Germany. Styling of most German watches is stark and minimalist, the reference 5130 for the German market is no exception. Featuring a special guilloché dial in the same pattern as the Bavarian flag, (Munich is the capital of Bavaria) the exquisite white dial with its stunning guilloché center is made with extraordinary detail showcasing the art of the engraver. Additionally, the 24-city ring highlights the time zone for Munich in light blue —the same color utilized in the flag of Bavaria.
