1. Modify the 5236 to have an instantaneous calendar change. 2. Release a digital hour indication based 6119 as a revival of the 3969, but in round case. 3. Evolve a few models to incorporate zero-reset seconds for time setting ( when crown is pulled) 4. ...
How are they supposed to justify such thing? All in all they’re still an enterprise that’s seeking maximum profits. And where do they take the talent from that is needed to accomplish this with low deviation in quality at such output?
...that to maximize profits they shouldn't hand-finish any watch and just keep charging the same price based on the complications. It seems that someone paying $60k or so for a 'basic' Patek would at least be entitled to have someone grind the machine mar...
These figures may not be well known to everyone, but in 2019 Patek produced 62k watches (including 47k automatic, 8k manual, and 7k quartz for Ladies). I don’t have the official numbers for 2020 yet, but I heard we are around 53k because of the lockdowns....

You see how much Patek, Parmigiani, or any other brand charge for a given watch, and then freely decide whether or not you want that watch. I don't see anything unexpected with a $29k MSRP for the new 6119, given how much the rest of the collection is val...
Parmigiani Toric Hemispheres Retrograde in steel Nomos Lambda 175 in Steel Omega Ploprof 1200m Titanium on Titanium. Each of these are IMHO completely different from one another in terms of functions, aesthetics and construction and therefore merited a de...
Why do you want this? I can't stand this approach because let's say you have set your minute hand so that it is exactly over the minute marker when the second hand is at the 60 second mark. Then, let's say you pull the crown to stop the seconds at the 30 ...
Pull crown to reset seconds hand to 60 ( zero). Set minute to the exact mark. Push crown in when desired quartz/atomic clock time is reached. Lange Sax-0-Mat is a great example . Videos can be seen for understanding the functionality.
