Description: Investing in wristwatches : PATEK PHILIPPE, French book with prices Investing in wristwatches : PATEK PHILIPPE, French book with prices This hardcover book with 368 full color pages is the new benchmark for all PATEK PHILIPPE watch enthusiasts and collectors. Vintage Patek Philippe watches are fetching ever higher prices at auctions and their popularity continues to grow. What makes them so special and so coveted by collectors? For some, it is an activity of pure passion because they appreciate the watch - the complexity of its mechanics and the finesse of its form - like a work of art. For others, collecting is an investment and the value of a watch is as important as its appearance. All collectors should have a guide to models and their market value. This important reference book highlights more than 550 watches, including the majority of key Patek Philippe references with analysis of details and prices realised at auction. The timepieces presented have been carefully selected by Osvaldo Patrizzi, emeritus watchmaker expert, for various reasons including technical excellence, auction results, design and anecdotal stories. The complication of these watches, grouped by reference number, allows a comparative analysis of auction results, showing the evolution of prices over time, from the 1980s to today. Investir dans les Montres : PATEK PHILIPPE offers a detailed insight into the world of authenticating and pricing high-value wristwatches, essential to collectors from amateur to connoisseur.
