Re: It also shows that some people have more money than sense!
To me the watch under discussion,(ref. 2594), is quite attractive and the build quality and performance of the piece is without question first rate. The opinion of my watchmaker, who owns a Patek, is that the 23-300 is a technical triumph. This is evidenced by its rugged construction and by the amount of hand finishing lavished on all Patek watches made during the time the 23-300 was produced. The 2.3mm height of this movement, while somewhat thin, is just thick enough to be truly robust.
I WILL at some point in the future own the new Annual Calendar, but for now seeing a ref. 2594 go for $10,000.00 tickles me half silly! Maybe my 3484 is moving UP ?!! All in good fun.
