The Patek 5224 anthracite replica offers a travel time complication from the Patek Philippe Complications collection, presented with a grey dial that lends the 5224 a contemporary edge. It is a factory variant: the only genuine 5224 is the rose gold 5224R-001 with a navy blue dial, while this version pairs a white metal case with anthracite. Where many travel time watches lean heavily on utilitarian design, this reference maintains the restrained elegance that defines the broader catalog. How home and local time on a 24-hour clone are set is covered in our guide, and we record the setting for you on request.

The travel time function allows simultaneous tracking of home and local time through a second hour hand. On the genuine 5224 the local time is moved through the crown rather than by pushers, so the case stays free of extra buttons; on the clone this second-zone function is unverified.

Anthracite Against the Silver and White 5224s

Our 5224 clones come in white, silver and anthracite dial versions, none of which Patek itself made. The grey version delivers stronger contrast against the outlined numerals, improving readability in lower light conditions. The white variant, by contrast, offers a more traditional dress watch appearance. Both share identical case architecture and movement specifications. This makes the choice purely aesthetic. Visit our Complications collection for the full reference list, or compare directly with the 5140R-001 with brown dial for a perpetual calendar option in a warmer tone.

The Pusher-Free Case of the Anthracite 5224

Most dual-timezone watches sacrifice elegance for utility. The 5224 refuses that compromise. The grey dial maintains a sophisticated presence on the wrist while crown-only setting keeps the silhouette clean. There are no bulky crown guards or oversized sub-dials here — just a functional complication executed with discipline. For the frequent traveler who expects mechanical substance alongside visual refinement, the anthracite 5224 super clone is a reference that satisfies both requirements without concession.
