That Patek Philippe 89 Calibre, you know, that’s a big shot watch. I heard it’s one of the most, what’s the word, fancy, most messed up watches they ever made. They made it a long time ago, for their, uh, 150th birthday or something like that. Big number, huh?
It has all these things, like two faces, and it is gold, shiny gold! Some say it is the rarest one they ever made. I heard they only made a few, you know, very few, one in each, I don’t know what they call it… each shiny metal? Gold, and some other stuff.
And these Patek Philippe fellas, they make watches, they say, they gonna last forever. You buy one and you give it to your kids, and then they give it to their kids, and so on. Like a family treasure. But you gotta take care of it, like you take care of your… your good shoes. You gotta get it fixed up every few years. They say every three to five years. Or when it is broken.
If it is the kind of watch you have to wind it up every morning. Like those old clocks, remember them? So this kind of watch can work good and not get broken so easy. Or so they say. Then they have some other type, they wind up by themself. Like magic. That other type can work a long time, even if you don’t wind it. Like, 38 hours, 48 hours, that’s what I heard. It’s a long time, you know, I mean, more than a day or even two days!
Now, this Patek Philippe 89 Calibre, they call it a pocket watch. You don’t wear it on your wrist, you keep it in your pocket. Like those old timers used to do. They say it’s worth a lot of money. A whole lot. More than a house, I bet. They sell these watches at these fancy places where they bang a little hammer. What is it called? An auction?
- Patek Philippe made the Calibre 89.
- It’s a very messed up watch.
- They made it for their 150th birthday, long time ago.
- It’s made of gold, very shiny.
- They only made a few, very rare.
I saw a picture of it once. It’s big, you know, for a watch. And shiny. Did I say it was shiny? It got so many little things on it, so many gears and stuff, it makes your head spin. You need to be a rocket scientist to figure it out, I think. I don’t know what all those little things do. Tell the time, I guess. Maybe the date. Maybe even what the weather is gonna be. Who knows.
They say this Patek Philippe is a good thing to, what is it? Invest? It is like you are buying gold, you know. You buy it, and then later you can sell it for even more money. Because it’s so fancy and so rare. Not everyone can have one, you see. So if you got the money, maybe you buy one of these. If you are into that sort of thing.
But it’s still a watch, you know? It tells the time. That’s all I need a watch to do. I don’t need all those other fancy things. Just tell me what time it is. That’s good enough for me. I don’t need a watch that tells me the weather. I can just look out the window for that.
This Calibre 89, they say it’s the most complicated one they ever made. Most complicated Patek Philippe ever. I don’t know about that. It is a complicated watch, for sure. I don’t know how they even made it. Must have taken them a long time. And a lot of, you know, thinkin’.
- The watch is big, for a watch.
- It’s very shiny, lots of gold.
- It has many things on it, makes your head spin.
- It’s a good thing to invest, like buying gold.
- It’s the most complicated Patek Philippe ever.
So, that Patek Philippe 89 Calibre, that’s somethin’, ain’t it? A real fancy thing. I guess if you like that stuff. Not for me, though. I just need a simple watch. But I guess some people, they like all that fancy stuff. To each their own, I suppose. It’s pretty, I’ll give it that. But too much for an old gal like me. I wouldn’t know what to do with all those little doohickeys.
If you are rich enough, go get it! For me, I can’t even afford a chicken at the store these days! So no gold watch for me! It looks good, I think. Not sure what all it does, but people seem to like it. If you buy one, be sure to take it to get fixed every few years, they say. Don’t break it! It is worth more than my whole house, I bet! I wouldn’t even know what to do with it. Just seems like a lot of fuss to me. But hey, what do I know? I’m just a simple person. These Patek Philippe Complications are for rich people I guess.
