W&W 2022 Patek Philippe World Time Ref. 7130R-014

A new rose gold version with olive green dial and strap and hand-guilloched dial center

Launched in 2011, Reference 7130 set a new crowning touch to the longstanding tradition of Patek Philippe World Time watches with a ladies’ model. The two versions offered so far in the current collection are one in rose gold with an ivory opaline dial and the other in white gold with a gray-blue dial. Patek Philippe has reinterpreted the rose gold version with a modern and elegant olive green color.

The dial center pays tribute to rare handcrafts with a finely hand-guilloched old basket weave motif. Its olive green shade is picked up on the city disk, where the white-printed names stand out in an extremely legible manner.

The local time in the time zone selected on the city disk at 12 o’clock is displayed by lozenge-shaped hands and applied arrow-type hour markers in pink gold. A row of 62 Top Wesselton Pure diamonds (~0.82 ct) set on the bezel completes the elegant adornment of this model.

The model is driven by the self-winding 240 HU caliber, an ultra-thin movement serving to maintain an extremely slim and refined case. Thanks to its city disk and its 24-hour disk (divided into day/night zones differentiated by their color along with sun/moon symbols), this caliber simultaneously and permanently displays the time in all 24 time zones.

An exclusive patented mechanism introduced in 1999 enables all the displays to be corrected with a single press of the pusher at 10 o’clock, without affecting the movement’s precision.

The shiny olive green smooth calfskin strap, matching the dial, is enhanced with contrasting cream stitching and secured by a pink gold prong buckle set with 27 diamonds (~0.21 ct).

The new rose gold Reference 7130R-014 Ladies’ World Time model joins the existing white gold Reference 7130G-016 and replaces the previous Reference 7130R-013.
