Patek Philippe is unveiling a new self-winding

grand complication that adds a 24-hour alarm to

its exclusive Travel Time display with two time

zones; the alarm signal is struck by a hammer

on a classic gong: Ref. 5520. To achieve this, the

manufacture created a totally new integrated

movement composed of 574 parts. Four patents

applications were ﬁled for the alarm mechanisms.

It is the result of ﬁve years of development. A

noteworthy detail: the Alarm Travel Time is

Patek Philippe’s ﬁrst chiming timepiece with

a water-resistant case. A quintessential travel

companion presented in an elegant Pilot-style

platinum case.

Preparations

Please manually wind the watch before

performing any corrections or adjustments

(20 counterclockwise turns of the crown).

You can be sure that performing adjustment is

safe if you ﬁrst set your watch to 7 a.m.; observe

the color of the day/night indicator (LOCAL)

(white).

Setting the time – home time

Recommended method:

The reference time for your watch is the time at

home. To set the time, ﬁrst unlock the correction

pushers “+” and “–” (1/4 turn counterclockwise)

and actuate one of the two pushers as many times

as needed to superpose the skeletonized and

solid hour hands and to display the same color

in the day/night indicator aperture (HOME) and

(LOCAL).

Now, pull the crown gently all the way out to

position 3 and move the hands in either direction.

The day/night indicator in the aperture (HOME)

lets you check whether you have set the correct

time (white = from 6 a.m. to 6 p.m.; blue = from

6 p.m. to 6 a.m.).

Once you have set the correct time, push the

crown home again and lock the corrections

pushers (1/4 turn clockwise).

Second time zone

Your watch has two central hour hands:

- The solid hand displays local time (the time

zone in which you are currently located)

- The skeletonized hand displays home time (your

normal place of residence or work)

When you are at home and therefore local time

and home time are the same, the hands are

perfectly aligned to appear as one.

When you change time zone, you can move the

local hour hand forward or backward one hour at

a time using the pushers on the side of the case

at 8 o’clock and 10 o’clock. During this time, the

skeletonized hand continues to indicate the time

in your home time zone. This useful feature is

intelligently combined with day/night indicators,

clearly distinguished by the words LOCAL and

HOME. These small apertures tell you what part

of the day it is in each of the two displayed time

zones.

CAUTION: The pushers used to set the local time

and to turn the alarm on and off feature a patented

safety lock that prevents inadvertent changes to

the local time and to the alarm setting. Before

they can be actuated, they must be unlocked

with a quarter turn in the counterclockwise

direction. After setting the local time or once the

alarm has been activated or deactivated, lock the

pushers again with a quarter turn in the clockwise

direction.

Unlock:

¼ turn counterclockwise

Lock:

¼ turn clockwise

When the two hour hands are separate, the

skeletonized hand continues to display the time

in your home time zone, and the day/night

aperture (HOME) indicates whether it is day or

night in your home time zone.

As soon as you have returned to your home time

zone (normal place of residence or work), simply

press the correction pusher “+” or “–” as many

times as needed to superpose the two hour hands

and again. Make sure the two day/night indicators

(HOME) and (LOCAL) have the same color. Lock

the pushers again with a quarter turn in the

clockwise direction.

Date correction

The date indicated by your watch refers to the

local time zone. To set the date, actuate the

correction push piece between 6 and 7 o’clock as

many times as needed to display the current date.

Correction push pieces should be actuated

exclusively with the correction stylus that was

delivered with the watch. The use of any other

tool could damage your timepiece.

CAUTION: The date cannot be adjusted between

10 p.m. and 2 a.m. If you activate the date change

mechanism during this time, an insulator will

prevent the date from being changed to avoid any

damage to the movement.

Display of a second time zone

- local time

Before you set a second time zone, check the

day/night indicator (HOME) to make sure that the

two superposed hour hands indicate the correct

time at home and that the day/night indicator

correctly displays daytime or nighttime hours, for

instance 8 a.m. or 8 p.m.

To set the local hour hand to display a second

time zone, follow these steps:

- If you are traveling eastbound, press the

correction pusher “+” at 8 o’clock to move the

solid hand clockwise by as many hours as the

two time zones are apart

(press once = +1 hour);

- If you are traveling westbound, press the

correction pusher “–

” at 10 o’clock to move the

solid hand clockwise by as many hours as the

two time zones are apart

(press once = –1 hour);

- If you move the hour hand for local time

beyond midnight in either direction, the date

will also switch forward or backward;

- If you continue your journey and pass through

further time zones, simply repeat the procedure

described above with the pushers “+” or “–”.

Activating/deactivating the alarm

CAUTION: The alarm cannot be actuated unless

the strikework barrel is fully wound.

To be able to actuate the alarm, make sure that

you always wind the striking mechanism to the

full extent. If the winding is not complete, the

alarm cannot be actuated. To wind the strikework

barrel turn the crown at 4 o’clock in the clockwise

direction. For this, the crown must be pushed

home to position 1.

Since your watch is equipped with a dynamometric

crown you will know that the strikework barrel is

fully wound when you hear a succession of soft

clicks.

To actuate the alarm, unlock the alarm

pusher at 2 o’clock (by giving it a quarter turn

counterclockwise) and then press it. The bell-

shaped aperture will change from black to

white. If it does not change, this means that

the strikework barrel has not been fully wound.

Remember to lock the pusher (by a quarter turn

clockwise) to avoid accidentally deactivating the

alarm.

Once the alarm has sounded, the strikework

barrel must be fully rewound before you can

reactivate the alarm mechanism.

Setting the alarm

The alarm time, like the date, is synchronized

with the local time (solid hour hand).

The alarm time can be programmed in quarter-

hour steps and up to 23 hours in advance. The

alarm can be set to strike as from the next quarter

hour: for example, it can be set at 9.20 to sound

at 9.30.

To adjust the alarm time, pull the crown out

to position 2. Then turn the crown backwards

or forwards until the desired time appears in

the double aperture at 12 o’clock. The day/

night indicator situated just below the aperture

enables you to check whether the time displayed

corresponds to 1 a.m. (blue indicator from 6 p.m.

to 6 a.m.) or 1 p.m. (white indicator from 6 a.m.

to 6 p.m.). Once the alarm time is set, push the

crown home again (position 1).

You can proceed with programming a new alarm

time as soon as the watch has ﬁnished striking.

But to reactivate the alarm for the same time the

next day, please wait 60 minutes.

Striking mechanism

At the pre-set time, the alarm will strike at a

steady cadence for a total duration of about 35

seconds. You can also stop it sooner by pressing

the alarm’s on/off pusher at 2 o’clock after having

unlocked it. At the end of the strike sequence

or when you stop it using the pusher, the bell-

shaped aperture changes from white to black.

Recommendations

WATER RESISTANCE

Your watch is ﬁtted with different types of seals

to protect the movement against the ingress of

dust and moisture and to prevent damage if it is

immersed in water. Nonetheless, we recommend

that you prevent direct contact with water if your

watch has a leather strap.

It is advisable to have a water-resistance test

carried out every year on your watch. This is a

simple procedure that takes only a few minutes

at a properly equipped point of sale.

SERVICE

We recommend that you have your watch

serviced at least once every three to ﬁve years.

For this purpose, we suggest you take it to an

Authorized Patek Philippe Retailer who will

send it to our Geneva manufacture, the only

location authorized to service watches with

minute repeaters. You can then be assured that

your watch will be inspected and overhauled by

a qualiﬁed master watchmaker at Patek Philippe

headquarters in Geneva. The master watchmaker

will completely disassemble the movement

and then inspect, clean, and lubricate all the

individual parts prior to reassembly. All functions

of the watch will also be tested in detail and the

escapement regulated if necessary. Finally, its

rate accuracy will be monitored and precision-

adjusted for a further period of at least two weeks.

The case and the buckle will be polished as per

your instructions and your watch will be returned

to you in mint condition. The entire process will

take several weeks because each watch must

undergo a complete series of tests to fulﬁll the

strict quality criteria of Patek Philippe.

If you have any questions regarding the

maintenance of your watch, contact the

Authorized Patek Philippe Retailer nearest to you

or our International Customer Service department

in Geneva, or visit www.patek.com.

WINDING

When it is on your wrist, your watch is wound

automatically by your arm movements. When

fully wound and off the wrist, you watch has a

power reserve of at least 52 hours. If your watch

stopped because you set it aside for an extended

period of time, you can wind it manually with

about 20 counterclockwise turns of the crown.

We advise you to wind the watch before you put

it on. This way, you can avoid lateral pressure

on the winding stem which, in the course of the

years, could damage the stem tube.

The same applies to handsetting and alarm time

setting, for which we advise to use your ﬁngernails

to pull the crown out and turn it gently between

two ﬁngertips.

CHANGING THE CASE BACK

Your watch comes with a sapphire-crystal case

back and a separate interchangeable solid metal

back. Only watchmakers entitled by Patek

Philippe Genève are authorized to exchange the

backs.

PATEK PHILIPPE SEAL

The Patek Philippe Seal is a global emblem of

quality that applies to the completed and fully

cased watch. It covers the movement, the case,

the dial, the hands, the pushers, the straps

and bracelets, the clasps, as well as all other

components that contribute to the accuracy and

aesthetic appeal of a watch. It takes technical,

functional, and designrelated aspects into

account and also covers the visual appearance of

the watch, its rate accuracy and dependability,

as well as the quality of the customer service

to which its owner is entitled. It encompasses

the entire know-how and the unique facets that

govern the development, production, and long-

term maintenance of an exceptional timepiece..
