Introduced in 2006, the reference 5130 continued Patek Philippes celebrated tradition of world time wristwatches, a complication closely associated with the manufacture since the 1930s. Powered by the ultra-thin automatic calibre 240 HU, the reference allows the wearer to read the time across 24 time zones simultaneously, with a distinctive guilloche center dial surrounded by rotating city and 24-hour rings.
The present example is an exceptionally rare variation, reference 5130/12R, distinguished by its factory-set ruby bezel. The rich red gemstones are baguette-cut and set around the circumference of the pink gold case, providing a striking contrast to the silvery guilloche dial. The combination is particularly attractive, retaining the classical character of the World Time while introducing an unusual and distinctly luxurious element.
Factory gem-set variations of Patek Philippes complicated wristwatches are seldom encountered, and the reference 5130/12R represents a particularly compelling example. The watch features a beautifully proportioned 39.5mm pink gold case, with its movement visible through the sapphire display back.
This example is accompanied by a recent extract from the archive at Patek Philippe noting the production date in 2011.
