World time watches combine a counter-clockwise 24-hour ring with a rotating chapter ring of reference cities. In the case of the 5110G World Time, each reference city represents one of the 24 principal time zones of the earth.
The multi-faceted dial comprises two peripheral rotating discs, with the outer disc identifying the city and the inner disc denoting the respective time zone.
The local time zone is shown at twelve o’clock, with the cities to the East on the right and to the West on the left. The pusher can easily change the local time zone at ten o’clock.
Quick-set feature:
By pressing the pusher, three things happen simultaneously: the hour hand advances by one hour, while the city and twenty-four-hour disks move counter-clockwise by one time zone.

Sapphire crystal display case back.
Geneva-area watchmaker Louis Cottier invented this system at the dawn of the 1930s, enabling a unique trick, one dial that permits instant reference to the time in any of the globe’s disparate regions.
Patek Philippe produced this model from 2000 to 2006. It was the first World-Time model produced by Patek Philippe since the ref. 2523 and its successor is the ref. 5130.
Discontinued, collector's item.

Warranties & Repairs

At Twain Time, trust is our timepiece's best friend. Our commitment to quality spans every pre-owned watch and mechanical marvel in our collection. Should the unexpected occur, count on us to swiftly make things right. We treasure our clients' satisfaction and trust above all else—this ethos echoes through every member of our team.

Each pre-owned watch undergoes meticulous, non-invasive mechanical scrutiny and servicing if needed. This ensures they not only meet but exceed our stringent standards for accuracy and functionality.

Rest easy knowing that unless otherwise noted, our pre-owned watches come with a robust warranty—either full or limited—spanning twelve months. However, this doesn't cover damages from misuse or accidents. Given their age, some watches may require gentler treatment than when they were brand new.

For those watches serviced by their original manufacturers, they bear the manufacturer's guarantee, surpassing our standard warranty.

At Twain Time, trust isn't just a promise—it's our guiding principle.
