Vacheron Constantin Historiques "Cornes de Vache 1955"
As best as a manually wound dress chronograph can be, while at the same time keeping some sporty feeling in the mix. And all this, with a bit of a historical twist for the case and lug design. Stunning!
#4
A. Lange & Söhne 1815 Tourbillon Handwerkskunst
Unbelievable execution of workmanship for the most beautiful 1815 ever produced. Look at that dial!
#3
Rolex Yachtmaster 40mm, Everose / Oysterflex
Rolex manages to turn the Yachtmaster line into a best seller. Waiting lists and a future reference point for the history of The Crown. Plus, it’s simply gorgeous!
#2
A. Lange & Sohne Datograph Up/Down in Pink Gold
The juxtaposition between the rose gold case the black dial and the brown strap is dramatic in the best possible way. And then you turn the watch over… The Datograph continues to be the best manually wound chronograph out there (plus you get the signature oversize date and the power reserve).
#1
Patek Philippe 5370P Split-Seconds Chronograph
First place in my book goes to Patek for the elegant modern classic 5370P. The “most Patek Philippe watch” that Patek Philippe has produced in recent years. Case, hands, enamel dial, Breguet numerals are all there to compose a watch that will be remembered and sought after by serious collectors for decades to come.
