Just the servicing and maintenance procedure cost is way beyond the average watch enthusiasts budget, basically Patek Phillipe is a toy for well off people, If i was fortunate enough to obtain one i could not afford its five yearly MOT and i don’t think you could get away with taking it to your local jewelers/watch repairers so i would sell it(regrettably) to someone who could afford to take care of it properly.
I think the automatic watch, and particularly in the skill displayed with PP, is the ultimate expression of human ingenuity. Moreso than the atomic bomb.
Long hair around rotating shafts/objects (like lathe, polishers) is a recipe for disaster.. yes I know of a female worker who had a big bunch of hair torn out and face slammed against the casting of the machine. She looked like she had been beaten.
What the hell is this OCD Cyclop people with a passion for making the best wrist watches for man, yet they dont really look that good and cost an arm and a leg to buy, + servicing costs every 5 years ?
High end watches have little to do with what time it is. That’s just an added bonus. These things are wearable art in motion, and are amazing creations in precision, style and engineering.
This is our unequal planet were on one side a 3 year old waited a whole day to get one apple which the child has cherished only once in life while on the other hand people doesn’t have enough opportunities to spend their fortune. This world is for the winner who was able to defeat the have-nots through wars selling arms selling religion selling businesses selling any thing for profit. Successful means what? Mahatma Gandhi was successful to stop British and European exploitation of Asia through which Europeans strived amassed all the fortunes. For him successful means equality not exploitation. How can a person make such a wealth without exploiting and fooling fellow human being?
Just amazing! Can’t do anything else than admire the unbelieveable skillness.

Or if we lack some spear parts, we just as our ETA friends…
this service takes a team of top level experts around a week to complete and only costs 1-2k, it cost more to brakes installed on a car.

Not the best, but certainly very smart to promote their brand.

dam that black dude took way way too much gold off that case.im never trusting patek to polish my watch fuck that he just destroyed a customers watch
How can people say rolex is the rolls of watchmakers? PP is the one that holds the title.
To get the Patek back from service, the owner brings with him his first born and one of his kidneys.
2:11 Did he really say “Be ready for another 5 years”? 5 freaking years?! For a watch that costs 40.000dollars +… I expected them to last way longer.

Patek only has one watchmaker capable of making a balance staff?
WOW… SUCH DETAILED PROCESSES “PERFECTION”
Siempre lo vi a mi abuelo hacer estos trabajos y nunca le preste la suficiente atencion. Una paciencia terrible se ve que hay que tener
Okay folks. I don’t know where I’m going to finance this new hobby. But it’s happening

They make old parts for you if they need too…. And people wonder why they’re so expensive. Quality over quantity.
