They make it look easy, but only a professional watchmaker is capable of servicing a valuable watch like this Patek Philippe – and it’s fascinating to watch.

From the million-dollar Rolex to the eight-figure Swatch (!), these are five expensive watches from different brands.

The 2023 Rare Handcrafts collection by Patek Philippe comprises over 60 pieces, and it’s a reminder of why some call watches ‘art’.

It just sold for 6,000 times its original retail price.

A diamond-decked Hermès, a super-rare Cartier, the new Nautilus and a diamond-studded Royal Oak.

Auction house Christie’s says it may end up selling for ‘just’ $100k.

From a one-of-a-kind Rolex to the ubiquitous Patek Philippe Nautilus, this is Rihanna’s epic collection.

From the ‘Hulk’ to Richard Mille, these are five watches that did better than the S&P500

One watch is expected to sell for up to $2 million.
