As daft as it sounds for anyone with a spare £10,000,000 it would probably be a very good investment,  better than money in the bank.

 

Sotheby's are actually looking for a volunteer to give it a full service.

 

I notice in the header that they have used the wrong type of break, as in break the record,  they have used brake,  as in car brakes, should be break.

I don't think my heart could take it.

Plus - would need armed guards around my house. Mrs L would have something to say about that :)

Have you seen what it went for?.... 23,237,000 CHF

That's around £15.15 Million!!!! Bet Will bought it!

 

Yup - until he confirms otherwise, we can all assume Will won it.

You'd think they'd be able to afford to pay the best watchmaker in the world to do it. Roger Smith perhaps? At least if he breaks a part, he can make a new one. Actually, won't Patek service it?
