The dial is hand-painted enamel cloisonné depicting Europe, Asia, Africa and Australia, which only two artists at Patek Philippe are qualified to produce. There is a ring-shaped hour hand and dagger minute hand, with a night/day delineated 24-hour chapter ring. Around the perimeter are the 24 cities and time zones on a silver reserve. It is fitted on an alligator leather strap with an 18K white gold deployment Patek Philippe emblem release buckle, and a scratch-resistant sapphire crystal with anti-glare coatings. There is a screw-down protected winding crown, and a rectangular push button at 10 o'clock on the left-side case band that activates the 24-hour GMT chapter ring, switching from one time zone to another. Each time it is pressed, the hour hand advances one hour while the city ring and 24-hour ring rotate counter-clockwise by one hour - equivalent to one-time zone. Pressing the button 24 times will produce a trip around the world, with a return to the original departure time. The local time, indicated by the hour and minute hands, refers to the location on the city disk that lines up with 12 o'clock.
