Introducing: The Patek Philippe World Time Chronograph Ref. 5930G For The Singapore Grand Exhibition

September 26, 2019

The World Time Chronograph is back, with an exclusive for the Asian market! To celebrate the much-discussed Grand Exhibition in Singapore, Patek Philippe has released a 5930G with faded red guilloch dial and a slight change to the time zones, replacing Beijing with Singapore. The 5930 was first dropped at Baselworld 2016 and was noted as using the thinnest, smallest world time chronograph movement ever made, the caliber 28-250 HU, measuring just 30mm in diameter and 6.63mm thick. The watch itself measures 39.5mm across and was only available in white gold with a blue dial C until now. This limited edition 5930G is limited to just 300 pieces and will only be available in Singapore and Southeast Asia. Initial Thoughts This limited edition for the Grand Exhibition in Singapore is fairly straightforward, with its red faded dial and Singapore time zone dedication. That said, it is significant and ties in with the other releases (like the 5531R and 5167A) with its red coloring and worldtime theme. For the Grand Exhibition in New York, a series of world time watches was also released, and I'm not at all surprised that Patek has done the same for Singapore. Personally, Im also glad that Patek chose to balance out the other steel sports watches with what they really excel at C complications.?
