Patek - GMT ?

Hi All,

I don't know anything about Patek watches so I would like to hear from you if Patek has any automatic Rolex GMT like watches to offer ? Just looking for something that will be able to track the second time zone.

I know there used to be Patek 5134, but it was manual and discontinued now. Anything else out there ?

Thanks !

The 5164 Aquanaut Travel time is probably the closest thing to a Rolex GMT. Although they also have the world time as well.

Here's my 5134g "travel time", which is the last version of the travel time. Beautiful piece with an interesting timezone/GMT complication operated by the two buttons on the left hand side of the case.

Looks like I came in a tad too late, the most well known models have already been named!

I think those would be the best choices for somebody who wants a watch with a second time zone. The World Time is one of my favorite complicated Patek's but you must get used to the way it tells the time as the hour hand takes 24 hours to make a complete lap (unlike the two mentionned above who just have a hand made for that purpose, it makes them easier to read). Of course I would always recommend the World Time first because it is a stunnig beauty but if you don't want a very simple watch I think it won't be the best choice.
