Breguet 3857 Platinum Tourbillon Watch

This is a platinum Breguet watch.  It has a perpetual calendar, tourbillon movement, and a minute repeater.  As you can see from the dial it has a lot of functions.  There is a huge display on the left side of the beautiful tourbillon movement.  It is even cooler when you see it moving in action.

Patek Philippe 3939P Tourbillon Watch

2.  $435,897 – Patek Philippe 3939P
This is a “very rare” Patek Philippe watch.  It has a minute repeating tourbillon movement.  Patek Philippe is one of the only watch companies I know what does not display its tourbillon movement from the front.  Most companies put it on display.  It is a simple classic looking Patek that is extremely hard to find.

3.  $497,436 – Richard Mille RM012
Richard Mille watches are relatively new, but they already fetch huge prices.  This is a platinum skeleton watch that houses a tourbillon movement.  It was the fourth highest grossing item at the auction.  Richard Mille watches are sure to be around for a while.

Patek Philippe Factory Diamond Watch

4.  $528,000 – Patek Philippe 5033P/100P-001
This Patek Philippe is especially unique.  Patek is usually known for being extremely simple and understated, but this watch has a full factory diamond bezel.  Even the lugs have diamonds.  It also has a minute repeating annual calendar function.   It sold at the high end of its expected range.

$886,667 Patek Philippe Watch

5.  $866,667 – Patek Philippe 5207P-001
This Patek Philippe is extremely rare.  It is actually the brand’s most complicated watch (which is saying a lot).  It has a minute-repeating instantaneous perpetual calendar with a tourbillon movement.  It also has a leap year and day/night indication.  At 41mm it is on the larger size for Patek.  It has a honey gold-colored dial and a platinum case.  It was made last year in 2013.

Patek Philippe watches made up 6 of the top 10 highest grossing auctions.  And the top 3 were all Patek Philippe proving once again they are the standard for timepieces around the world.
