Patek Philippe, like most watch brands, has become responsive to customer demands for larger timepieces. Because this renowned Genevan manufacturer is a hallowed bastion of design conservatism, these changes are not sweeping, but they are certainly present. One of the most recent Patek Philippe watches to undergo a size increase is their famous world time model.
Patek Philippe took its acclaimed Ref. 5110 World Time watch and increased its modest 37mm Calatrava case design by 2.5 millimeters, a subtle yet noticeable difference. The new Patek Philippe Ref. 5130 is available in platinum or 18K white, yellow, or rose gold, and features a new dial with a distinctive sunray guilloche pattern. Its ring-shaped hour hand is distinctive, and quite nice given that its inspiration is drawn from 1930’s/40’s-era Patek Philippe world time watches.
Patek Philippe touts the enhanced legibility of the Ref. 5130 world time display over its immediate predecessor; while its true that it may be slightly easier to read than the “old” Ref. 5110 watch, I highly doubt that was the primary impetus of the redesign (particularly when you consider that the original Patek world time watch was about 33mm!). Modern tastes and current fashions have much more to do with it.

The Zenith Grande Class Tourbillon watch is a prestigious luxury timepiece with a unique presence. Equipped with an exclusive Manufacture movement and rare complications, this Zenith watch displays a distinctive style that underscores the technical brilliance it embodies. Crafted exclusively in 18K gold, the classically-sculpted Class watch case measures an impressive 45mm in diameter. Key characteristics of this elegant design include extremely fine finishing to each component of the case, including the flat polished bezel that merges perfectly with the gently domed sapphire crystal. The dial of this watch is unmistakable; from the center of the tourbillon cage, outward rays of "light", crafted from polished gold, stream from the Zenith star, symbolizing the shining horological excellence of this famous brand. Such a design is not accidental, for the Zenith Grande Class Tourbillon showcases the most coveted complication in the realm of traditional watchmaking. First invented at the turn of the 19th century, the tourbillon and its continuously rotating cage has remained a benchmark of horological skill and dedication to artisanal values. The self-winding Zenith El Primero 4035 caliber movement is exceptional, even among fine tourbillon movements. With a proud heritage dating back to the late 1960's, the balance wheel of this mechanism pulses at the extraordinary pace of 36,000 alternation per hour, thus making it the highest frequency tourbillon escapement ever made. In addition to the fascinating and mysterious tourbillon device, the Zenith Grande Class Tourbillon watch also shows off a chronograph mechanism with 12-hour and 30-minute counters. As is the case with all Zenith El Primero movements, the chronograph mechanism utilizes a column wheel to control its operations, and its construction is fully integrated. A sapphire crystal window in the caseback permits
