Watches - another OCD problem

[ddtrash]

Not keen on the 5524G.  Seems a bit of a misfit for the brand. Its a Patek and as a result will sell regardless.

The Genta designed Nautilus was also a step in a different direction for Patek when it was released back in 1976 however this was an original design not a rehash of an old model.

I don't think the 5524G will have the same longevity as the Nautilus design.

Patek have to be complemented on trying something different, they do have a few different styles within the collection.  If you try and keep the collection fresh then you are going to serve up some hits and the odd miss.

Looking to get a Rolex but in the meantime, I've been rocking this the last few years:

A very black A. Lange & Söhne Zeitwerk Phantom.

Look away now @ddtrash if you want to preserve your bank balance!

That's insane…

It's not mine, unfortunately. I found it on the Hodinkee Instagram feed, which is XXX rated watch porn.

The Zeitwerk starts at $55K if you look for a used one on Chrono24. The Phantom was a limited edition, and will no doubt go for much, much more.

Zeitwerks are very, very cool.  There's so much going on with the movement that I would be scared to buy one used.  I can only imagine the servicing costs!

Jacob & Co. Billionaire Watch…

Not mine, and not to my tastes. But I appreciate the smiley on the back.

And you obviously have to wear some pretty naff gloves when you do wear it….

Yeah are they worried about scratching diamonds??

Hodinkee have an article and video about the A. Lange & Söhne manufacture. @ddtrash if you haven't taken a look at this, then you really should.

There's also a preview of the upcoming Philips auction in Geneva, which includes this gorgeous Patek doctor's watch.

Unfortunately the article is called "My Thoughts On The Four Watches That Could (And Should) Break $1M At The Phillips Geneva Watch Auction". So, no, you can't afford it!

Great video, really shows the level of craftsmanship involved…...wish I had a bigger piggy bank though [emoji6]
