Two great watches with two totally different price points now. Vintage Patek's continue to command a different rate of growth to other manufacturers and I have often wondered why this is,
especially considering that JLC one made the movements for all of the holy trinity..
Patek 3417 / Jaeger Lecoultre E 168. Amagnetic Versus Amagnetic and Chronometer.
These 2 are legends for those who collect amagnetic and or manual winding chronometers. Two signatures, " amagnetic " and " Chronomètre ". Two great brands, Patek and Jaeger. Two great references as well. The Geophysic has the advantage of being ALSO a...

That being said, I remember when Baron first posted after getting the amagnetic Patek. What a watch!
