A Grand Complication in what is, for Patek Philippe, one of the rarest of all metals.
If this one looks familiar, it’s for a very good reason.
Let’s be honest, the unique Patek and F.P.Journe for Only Watch 2017 we just introduced to you are massive pieces… But let’s not forget the brand that created the surprise in 2015, with a watch that sold for way above its estimate: Tudor. For the 7th Edition of the charity auction, they are back, with a unique left handed and Khaki Green Bronzo, the Tudor Black Bay Bronze One.
The star of SIHH 2017 gets a new look for this unique edition.
After the unique Patek Philippe 5208T for Only Watch 2017 we just introduced to you, you might think that you’ve seen the best of the upcoming charity auction… but you’d be wrong, as F.P.Journe will have a unique Chronographe Monopoussoir Rattrapante (the first split-seconds he ever created), with the usual tantalum / blue chrome combination. And that is quite something!
This unique left-hander in a totally new color will go to one lucky bidder.
This one could be right up there with the coolest Only Watches of all time.
Only Watch 2017, the biennial charity auction, just unveiled its highly special pieces… and because we know that many of you will ask for it, here is the big one, the unique, titanium Patek Philippe 5208T, made for the 7th edition of Only Watch.
Smartwatches; what to do with them? Embrace them? Bann them entirely? Or, perhaps, if you are positive, try and adapt it into your (haute) horology lifestyle? If you have been following us for the last few years, you might recall that we have always been highly skeptical towards the “smart” revolution in watchmaking. We have yet to stumble upon a project that truly wins us over. We, at Monochrome, have a sort of love-hate relationship with them. But, in all fairness, we keep our eyes open to those that might tick all boxes, like this next Kickstarter project: The Sequent Supercharger, the first self-winding / self-charging / cable-free smartwatch.
