Patek Philippe 5236P Perpetual calendar in line
While influence watchers, waiting lists and hype watchers are struggling on the new super-limited line of Nautilus watches, the real Patek heads are losing their minds for this perpetual calendar in the 5236P line. This is one for nerds – truly appreciating the piece requires a basic knowledge of the perpetual calendar, a feature that displays the day of the week and the full date. The perpetual calendar is usually a busy function: it requires a lot real estate to pack all this information on the display of a watch. (This Nautilus uses three different subdials to convey that information.) This new Patek spits them all out in one orderly line. The result is one of the cleanest and easiest to digest perpetual calendars out there. Of course, simplicity is the result of the synchronized madness below. Check the two synchronized wheels below the surface that allow this watch to work.
Cartier Tank Must
Cartier is best known for removing the most iconic models from its archives – whether it’s last year’s Asymetrique or this year’s Cloche. However, this new version exhumes an entire program. Cartier Must was first launched in the late 1970s as a way to combat the quartz crisis – thanks to quartz, watches were suddenly much more affordable, so Cartier responded with a kind of diffusion line in Must that brought quartz into the house. historical. The watches were extremely affordable and, in some cases, extremely colorful. Now, Cartier is bringing Tank Must back in blue, green and burgundy at a cost of $ 2,720 each.
