In an era where it becomes more common to look at your phone for the time, a watch like the world time becomes that much more relevant to me.

Absolutely not, a massive downgrade.
Many people don't seem to realise on this forum that Rolex is nothing more than mid tier in horology terms and a direct competitor on the same level as Omega.
Patek is right up there with some of the best hand finished high horology brands, they are on a completely different level

Short answer: no!

If we are ignoring values the 5130p is a much greater watch than a 5711.
But for trade purposes, value is the only thing that matters!!!

Couldn't agree more. If you have no love for the PP you sell it. If you want a daytona, you buy it.
