Patek Philippe Cloisonne Enamel World Time
Complete, Unworn, 2013 Ref. 5131J-014
This Rare Patek Philippe Ref. 5131J-014 Cloisonne Enamel Dial World Time Is Complete. Accompanied with its certificate of origin dated 2013, instruction manual and presentation box. This exceptional example is unworn and comes from the original owner.
The 5131J-014 world time automatic watch features a 39.5 mm case. This is a yellow gold example with cloisonne enamel dial and features a map of the Americas, Europe and Africa. Functions include 24 hours revolving chapter ring divided into nocturnal and diurnal hours, outer silvered revolving ring with names of 24 cities. Watch comes with its original brown crocodile strap and yellow gold deployant buckle.
Patek Philippe launched the reference 5131 in 2008. First introduced in yellow gold, the Maison subsequently released a white gold version in 2009, pink gold in 2014 and platinum in 2017. The 5131 is considered both as an horological marvel as well as a work of art with its hand painted cloisonne enamel dial depicting four continents: Europe, Asia, Africa and Oceania.
Due to the laborious nature of the enamelling process, Patek Philippe only produces a limited number of this reference every year, making this a highly sought-after watch among collectors. The reference was in fact already subject to a long waiting list at the time of production, as only a couple enameller artists are producing less than 40 dials a year. Additionally, each dial is individually enamelled by hand, resulting in no two dials being identical. Approximately 150-200 examples of the ref. 5131J were produced.
