In came my first World Time

I love blue colour and by extension, many of my watches' dials are in blue. From the 2022 release, along with the green 5270P, I also requested from my AD this one below which is so irresistibly attractive to someone who is drawn to that colour. Today the call came and I collected my very first World Time, in blue of course.

The standard strap is too long for me and I have ordered a shorter one which will take a couple of months to arrive. Thanks for reading.

I know you have a thing for platinum, hope you receive yours soon.

I have sent in my standard strap to a local leather artisan for shortening, that will take 1 to 2 weeks. Will post more pics when I get my only strap back

That’s beautiful Michael, truly

It’s not often you see a dial that increases with color intensity in sunlight, vs indoor light. Very very nice

It's a very subtle and well styled version, excellent size (even if this point remains subjective and relative to one's wrist). The fact it has the Pt weight and feel is the cherry on the cake.

Those Pt Worldtimers (5110, 5130 and 5230) have something special.

Congratulations !

Thanks Brian!
I really like that iridescent guilloche that reflects light in a very beautiful way. I saw pics and videos before I decided to buy and in metal, it looks every bit as good if not better.

Thank you!
I appreciate that nice size (38.5 by 10.2mm) due to my small wrist and with the platinum heft it felt perfect on the wrist.

Need some help - does anyone has suggestions on what other strap colours will go well with that blue dial and white metal case?
