Notes

The reference 5130 was launched in 2007 to update the reference 5110 which was introduced in 2000. The main difference is that the size of the case of the new model is 39.5 mm instead of 37 mm for the 5110. The ring-shaped hour hand has also been revived from the classic design of the 1930s and 1940s.
