Thank you for not posting a gaudy Nixon watch or something stupid like that.

Nice watch and it's only going up in value. Patek's are renowned for being wearable art. I'd like to get one after I pick up a Dunhill lighter and some Cartier cufflinks.

Yea right.

OK, somehow I don't think a watch worth that kind of money would be sealed in a plastic bag.

. Even if you wanted to buy this watch, there is a waiting list to purchase this watch. In fact, this watch is equivalent to the Ferrari Enzo. To buy a watch like this, you have to have purchased other Pateks to be consider worthy enough to own such a unique timepiece that will only increase in value.

or, you could buy one on ebay.

interestingly enough, a business acquaintance of a guy @ work swung by the office with one of these; showing off his 'million dollar watch' (didn't see it myself).
