    My father was a watchmaker and I used to often visit his workshop. There were always may watches in various states of assembly/disassembly on his workbench. I could never understand how he knew which parts were for which watch...he did of course. In all the years he worked as a watchmaker I doubt that heavier saw a watch anywhere as complex as the Patek in the clip. Thanks for this, it took me back to when I was quite young.

    Only 6 of those watches for sale.They have over 50 people interested but you can't just cough up $2.6M. You have to go and interview for the sale and the company will decide if you are worthy of such a watch. Screw 'em, I'm withdrawing my expression of interest.
    Those were the droids I was looking for.
