Fans of Patek Philippe replica watches are no doubt familiar with the iconic World Time Flyback Chronograph, as it is one of the brand’s most popular models. And now, Patek Philippe has just launched a stainless steel version, combining a striking salmon dial with a carbon motif adorning the center. The 41mm case comes on a taupe calfskin strap, but a beige cowhide strap is also included in the package.
Like all previous versions, this steel Patek Philippe 5935A combines a world time function showing the time in 24 time zones with a flyback chronograph function for ease of use and an attractive look. The movement responsible is the CH 28-520 HU automatic movement.
Patek Philippe now offers not only the classic 5204 split-seconds chronograph perpetual calendar in white gold but also in the very popular green colorway. 5204G-001’s 40mm white gold case features an olive green sunray dial that perfectly matches the shiny olive green hand-stitched calfskin strap.
The most surprising release in Patek Philippe’s 2022 Big Drop is the reference 5373P-001, a double split-seconds single-pusher chronograph for lefties that incorporates a perpetual calendar. This is the first left-handed chronograph in Patek Philippe’s recent history, so let’s unpack this new positioning, which is essentially that of the previous generation ref. 5372P.
First of all, the chronograph pushers on this fake watch’s 38.3mm platinum case are located on the left side rather than the right. That’s easy. But take a look at the sleek charcoal dial with red accents, and you’ll soon see that everything has been turned upside down – the moon phase has been moved to the top, swapping places with the date subdial, the 60-minute counter has been swapped with the running seconds, and the day/night and leap year indicators have been repositioned. Patek Philippe has essentially rotated the CHR 27-525 PS Q movement by 180 degrees, and everything else has followed suit.
