The more complex the more noble.

The more complex the more noble.
 
"Simple beauty" is not popular in this area, "the more complex, more noble," especially in the function.
 
In 1933, an American banker to the Patek Philippe watch a customized, this table has more than 900 parts, 24 kinds of functions, and can accurately take the time to 2100, called the world's most complicated watch.
 
Until 1941 the bankers only got his wish to get the watch. It is said that the watch design time spent only 3 years, and another 5 years to make complete.
 
66 years later, this took 8 years to "grind" into the watch to take vertical and horizontal field of $ 11,002,500, breaking a 1998 "18K gold perpetual calendar watch three questions," created by the 19.6 million dollar record.
 
Sort by appreciation potential, above all, watch out of print (no longer produced), followed by a limited edition, it is not, should select the function of many distinct characteristics of the watch - perpetual calendar, stopwatch in mind, the month, like, dancing characters, a special ring Bell, tourbillon, diving and other functions as the common preference for many collectors.
