Patek Philippe Celestial Tourbillon Repeater

Geeze louise, this baby is expensive!
Patek Philippe Celestial Tourbillon Repeater on ebay for $1.4 Million. Probably a a daily user for an oil kingdom midlevel clerk .
Now what would the service fees be for one of these... I shudder to think.

Wow, wonder if they'd still honour the 15% back thingy on that?

This is the second or third time (I know I've seen it twice) that this baby has been on ebay. I guess people spending 1.4mil for a watch don't spend a lot of time on the bay with us peons.

Just stunning, in so many ways... at least you get a decent box and nice documents with it...

Would be very cool as a "beater", although in my opinion this kind of piece is more for collecting than wearing (sadly)


Cheers

For that price, I would want Free Shipping and for them still to personally deliver it.
Their price is like $400,000 above the MRSP.
