Watch to buy
The Hunt
Every collector keeps a quiet list. This is mine — the pieces I'm looking to buy for my own collection, to keep and to wear. I'm not a dealer and nothing on this site is for sale; I'd simply rather hear from a fellow collector than fight for these at auction.

“The most classic perpetual calendar Patek ever made — the reference the whole genre still answers to.”

Breguet
ClassiqueRef. 3330
