Patek Philippe Rare Handcrafts 5531

Patek Philippe Rare Handcrafts 5531G-010 is a 40.2 mm white gold GMT watch, part of a limited series of ten. The case measures 11.49 mm thick and carries a hand-guilloché Clous de Paris hobnail pattern. A self-winding calibre R 27 HU drives the piece, combining a minute repeater with a World Time mechanism showing 24-hour and day/night indication for all time zones. The dial is worked in champlevé enamel and hand engraving, depicting a map of the world. A sapphire crystal case back, interchangeable with a solid white gold back, allows a view of the movement. The watch sits on a grained light brown calfskin strap with a white gold folding clasp. Patek Philippe rates the case as humidity and dust protected only, with no water resistance given.
