  • When you’re travelling from one celestial body to another within the 100 billion or so stars that make up our galaxy, which itself is one of 100 billion galaxies within the observable universe, it’s nice to have something to remember your place amongst it all. Interstellar hitchhiker Arthur Dent had his towel to remind him of home; perhaps if he’d had £220,000 to spend, he could have had this instead: the Patek Philippe 6102R.

      If £1 bought us the watch for one hour, we would have to wait 9,166.66 days or over 25 years for our turn to come round - and that's assuming 100% efficiency so it would have to work like clockwork...

    Arthur Dent did have a very expensive watch as described in Mostly Harmless:
    ---------------------------
    Arthur was very fond of it. It was a better one than he would ever
    have afforded himself. He had been given it on his twenty`second
    birthday by a rich and guilt`ridden godfather who had forgotten every
    single birthday he had had up till then, and also his name.
    --------------------------
    The watch had an annual calendar (at least - if not perpetual) with windows for date, day and month and a moon-phase complications (which makes it either Lange or Patek - it is not specified in the text)
    And then this sacramental phrase uttered by Arthur's daughter Random (Frequent Flier Dent):
    - Why's it all in hardware?
    But if you think of it - isn't "being all in hardware" the whole beauty of a complicated mechanical watch?
    And, yes, Patek Philippe 6102R IS a beauty!

    That some of the stars are "star shaped" (five points) gives the face a somewhat naive look. The face overall has a blobby and imprecise vibe to it. If they put a fraction of the precision from the movement into the face (as they have done with other watches). That said, I like that the effect of having stars at different heights. Overall, cool concept, but the execution is less than I would expect from this brand.

    An excellent piece of micro engineering, worthy of the price being asked. Watches like these are exceptional pieces of mechanical art, and clearly the movement for this watch must have taken ages to research and eventually manufacture. This is one hell of a complication which explains the cost along with the manual construction. This isn’t your average mechanical timepiece, this is something very special. 🙏❤️
