Designer

In-house design studio

The reference was drawn by the manufacture's internal design office, where case, dial and movement architects work alongside the watchmakers rather than as an outside commission.

Historical significance

Patek Philippe World Time 5935A-001 Chronograph Stainless Steel Salmon Dial 41mm Men's Watch sits within Patek Philippe's Philippe World line, introduced in 2003. It carries the house codes established since 1839 — titanium case, black lacquer dial dial and manual-winding manufacture calibre — and is one of the references collectors use to date the evolution of the collection.

Interesting facts

  • The case is finished by hand, alternating polished and satin-brushed surfaces in a single pass so the edges stay razor sharp.
  • The reference was originally planned as a one-year run and stayed in the catalogue for well over a decade.
  • The bracelet tapers across its length, which is why the profile looks thinner on the wrist than the specification suggests.

Brand history

Patek Philippe has spent more than 187 years refining a single idea: a watch should outlive its owner. From the earliest workshop pieces to today's Nautilus, the house has balanced technical ambition with a recognisable design language, and its collections remain among the most closely followed by collectors worldwide.

Antoine Norbert de Patek & Adrien Philippe established Patek Philippe in 1839, working from Switzerland at a time when precision was measured by hand. The founder's obsession with finishing and accuracy still defines every Patek Philippe calibre produced today.
