I think Patek is very far from being boring with the breadth and depth of their entire collection. Their recent 6300a and 6301p are technical marvels and they have used titanium on special releases. On the art front, they have applied enamelling, marquetry, guilloché and engraving in their watches which I thought not many manufacturers do. They have also released entry level watches such as the 5212 and pilots which are so refreshingly interesting and completely different from the rest of their collection.

Now if you ask me who are the boring manufacturers I can give you very quick answers...
