Product information "Book The World's Most Exclusive Watches"
This illustrated book puts together the world's most expensive and exclusive watches - those that cost from $ 200,000 up to over $ 5 million.
When is an expensive watch exclusive? When features, styling, manufacture, and material enter a unique and perfect combination. And this dedication to the production of exclusive watches, attention to detail, the quest for the perfection of mechanics is something all of the roughly 70 high-end luxury brands, whether Patek Philippe, Urwerk, or A. Lange & Söhne, have in common.
In ""The World's Most Exclusive Watches"", Ariel Adams offers tips for identifying such special pieces and introduces the watches, their brands, prices, and features in detail.
Detailed and elaborately photographed, Adams presents the following models, among others:
- Panerai – Luminor 1950 Equation of Time Tourbillon Titanio
- Cartier – Rotonde De Cartier Astrotourbillon Carbon Crystal
- Porsche Design – P’6910 Indicator
- Urwerk – UR-CC1 King Cobra
- A. Lange & Söhne – Tourbograph
- Rolex – Ref 4113, Spolit Seconds Chronograph
- Albert Einstein's Personal Longines
- Patek Philippe – 5004T for Only Watch 2013
- Hublot – Big Bang $5 Million
Press release:
Ariel Adams shows and describes ""The World's Most Exclusive Watches"" in this volume, which is looking for its match and probably will not find it. The cover itself is
a pleasure to the eye, finest presentation in an exquisite slipcase: pure visual pleasure, perfect haptic joy. An exciting foretaste of the delicacies inside. Or should one say: the noblesse? Full-page and double-sided large scale illustrations of true marvels of upscale chronometry, masterpieces of the most intricate mechanics, works of art of the first order, staged with an equal sense of aesthetics, elaborated with a wealth of knowledge
and true passion. Each of these luxury watches is a dizzying world of its own, a composition of top design, meta material, high-end technology, and manufacture perfection: veritable jewels that flatter the eye and the wrists that adorn them. Every page an eye-catcher, on more than 300 pages. At the start, however, some introductory chapters on the refinements of technology, on the materials, and on the historical significance and provenance of the timepieces. And
then just the precious watches, piece by piece, ordered by a pragmatic principle: from the most inexpensive to the most expensive. ""Inexpensive"" is relative. The cheapest one, the TYT H2 in Titanium Platinum, is worth $ 200,000. The most expensive, a Hublot Bing Bang, costs 5 million; and it requires a production time of 14 months.
If you cannot afford these prices, do it like you would with a Picasso or Rembrandt. Pass on the acquisition of the original and look at the masterpieces in a dignified art volume. This one is one for sure.
