In-Depth: Hands-On With The Henry Graves Jr. Patek Philippe Supercomplication
Today is a very big day for us Patek Philippe lovers ¨C it is the day that this great Genevan company will unveil its celebratory timepieces for its 175th birthday. I am in Geneva to cover this at length when the curtain lifts later tonight, but before we get to that, I thought today was as good a day as any to show you a little something special. Since starting HODINKEE over six years ago, I've gotten to see some incredibly important, and rare, timepieces. Pieces like split-seconds chronographs from Rolex, an Hermes-signed Paul Newman Daytona, a unique chronometer grade Patek owned by a disgraced Texas attorney (and NOT by the guy from Fight Club, ever), and even a platinum 2499 owned by Eric Clapton.
