  • The Patek Philippe Calibre 89 is a commemorative pocket watch created in 1989, to celebrate the company's 150th anniversary. Declared by Patek Philippe as "the most complicated watch in the world", it weighs 1.1 kg, exhibits 24 hands and has 1,728 components in total, including a thermometer, and a star chart. Made from 18 carat (75%) gold or platinum, it has an estimated value of $6 million, and took 5 years of research and development, and 4 years to manufacture. Four watches were made; one in white gold, one in yellow gold, one in rose gold and one in platinum.

      Omni - I am not from a america.
      You do not seem to understand the fact that is cheap and do it better at the same time, is what make it to art.
      I would say something that do something better for 5 dollar than something do for 5 million dollar is worth to be more admire, something that take far lesser time to produce so more people can enjoy it is worth to be more admire.
      Machine that helps with massprodcuing is hardly anything that has always existed, they have been much harder for mankind to make from the beginning than advcanced hand made stuff, but just because they are common now and lower the cost of the end product do not make them any lesser of a masterpice, it is the opposite, that is a big part of why they are a masterpice, they have revolutionize the world and make so more people can afford with it, that is a true masterpice.
      Automatic is just outdated tech that cost more but do lesser. It should really be thrown in the garbage. It do not ad anything.
      I see this admiration for time putting it to it, when the end result is not better as stupid. It is just a way of people to think they are deph, when they are the opposite, they are as shallow as you can get.
      Btw, no matter if it is art or not, if you buy it, you buy it to have it as a statussymbol.

      If you where stranded on a island, 1 guy build a speedboat with his tools in 5 min, 1 guy build a wodden raft with his tools in 2 years. Lets see what you think is the art then.
      You admire the wodden raft, I admire the speedboat, or the tools that made it happen.

      omni- Maybe you should look into how you express yourself before you call people stupid and retarded.
      I already explain why I think the way I do, if you think i am wrong in anything, explain in a more intelligent way when i am wrong, then just calling me stupid and retarted, because you only show what you are with doing so.
      The 5 dollar watch can last for many years and keep track on time just as good if not better.

      yeah I seen basically just decorated cta 6498 caliber for 999 usd on etsy. Anything that actually hand made they want like 50k or more. Sad cause the price they are asking seems to be the one thing that kill a small hand made watch business. Also atomic watch won't due. How can know someone isn't controlling time? Not that you could with pure mechanic, could be some kind of piezio electric balance spring that change it's spring coefficient to speed up slow down.

Sure its nice and dose a lot of things. But you should have listen to THE MASTER, George Daniels when he came to you about his design that would have made you what your asking for this time peace, Plus much , much more. Plus that old gray hair man is probably one of the men that wouldn't put forth the effort that it would have taken to make his watch work as George had designed in the first place. Good luck on your grandfather -space-adding machine.(note) it is a great achievement that you have made this wonderful time peace. But lets LOOK who really gave you you inter knowledge on how to do this!!! George Daniels did. HE brought to you his ideas and you were to proud to except he was better then you ALL were. So I'm glade that some one there has his knowledge.

    To those folk who poo poo the watch and all it stands for....... firstly you will never own one because you don't have the attitude to own one.....secondly you know nothing about the creative spirit encased in man. The watch IS worth $26m because that what the market of man says it is...so it is. Just like your weetbix and coffee and cheap cars. You have made a serious error in making a judgement based on ignorance and the accepted form of life that others around you live. The best or the most creative or the most expensive has always stunned the ignorant and arrogant because of the paradigm that they live by. Not a philosophy but a fact. You are what you are because thats what you want. Simple. Some people want a $26m watch. And they have it!! I don't see them criticising your $100 watch or $3000 car. They understand that those things are what you want. And they are happy for you to have them. Thats a great attitude to have. The fact that your attitude could not or more so, would not, reciprocate, displays the gulf between yourself and the creative attitude shown by those who are more enlightened. Its easy to judge and run down a work of art. But no matter. My thoughts probably won't make the slightest difference. Thats the nature of attitude!
