Patek Philippe 5102 Sky Moon Celestial


There are a lot of superlatives in the world of luxury watchmaking, but every now and then a watch pops up that deserves every superlative you can say about it, and more. Most of these watches come from Patek Philippe. This may be an obvious thing (and a constant repetition and disgusting thing), but there is hardly a genre of watchmaking that Patek Philippe is not good at (well, they haven't done that much yet) dive watches have been around for the last 180 years or so, but you can't have everything).

While Patek Philippe has produced watches of exceptionally high quality throughout its history – in fact, this is the foundation of the company’s reputation – it is especially known for its watchmaking complications and intricate timepieces. Patek Philippe has and still manufactures superlative versions of every major horological complication. Minute repeaters, perpetual calendars, split-seconds chronographs, astronomical complications, and watches with multiple complications are all produced by Patek Philippe and are still listed in the "Grand Complications" section of the catalog today. More than 30 kinds of watches have been produced. As you might expect, most of them are extremely complicated and represent the accumulated knowledge of nearly two centuries of complicated watchmaking.
