ONE OF THE MOST FASCINATING TRENDS to observe post Covid-19 is the relentless proliferation of travel demand. While some industries cooled after immediate post-pandemic spikes in performance, the tourism industry has continued to surge.
As a result, more and more men are becoming global citizens—frequent travellers who are the result of the post-pandemic economic bounce and the increasing popularity of working remotely. They rarely stay in one place for long, frequently cross time zones, and are likely to have clients or stakeholders in multiple markets. It is also possible that they have moved much of their work and business online to avoid being tethered to an office.
Many watch brands have responded to this demand with world-time complications in their post-pandemic novelties. However, none do it quite as stylishly as Patek Philippe with its World Time Reference 5330.
