Hodinkee in Announcements Wednesday, April 29, 2009 at 9:03PM We have often said there is only one brand out there that has enough prestige behind it to charge $20,000 for a stainless steel watch and not have us laugh them out of the room (or off the blog, in this case).
That brand is Patek Philippe.The price of a Prius is one thing, the price of of a Bugatti is quite another.This past weekend over in the capital city of the replica Ulysse Nardin watches world (Geneva), our friends at Antiquorum held an auction, an auction at which they set a new record for the sale price of a stainless steel watch.The final selling price of this steel watch was 1,244,800 CHF, or $1.13 million.Let's repeat that.$1.13 million for a watch made out of stainless steel.So what exactly makes this particular steel wrist watch worth this amount of money? Well, as we mentioned, it's a Patek Philippe, so that's worth something right out of the gate.
