To share the joy of my Holy Grail
« on: December 06, 2013, 09:16:02 AM »
Dear Fellow watch enthusiats, i would like to share my joy of landing one of the "Ultimate" Holy Grail. I have not written any review of my watch before but for this, i think i will try my very first to write about it.  Which brand and model? please bear with me while I am preparing the review. (I learnt to build up suspense from a fellow forumer here  ;D)

Some clues
1) definitely a holy grail by any standard
2) A Grand complication model
3) A dress watch, in strap
4) in one of the most precious metal case
5) I got it pre-owned at an acceptable price. the brand new price would keep many drooling enthusiats (me included) keep drooling with no help... :Laughing_on_floor:

Let's see who could guess it right.. :D

Patek Philippe perpetual calendar in platinum. Since it is one of the "ultimate" ones, I still could be wrong with my answer.  :Laughing_on_floor: So don't disappoint us bro.

You are NOT sharing your holy grail you are asking us to guess ? So, if we get it right you will donate the watch ok ? I mean lets make it worth our effort instead of leaving us green with jealousy !

I too second this.

But I do hope to see a minute repeater from PP (still under the Grand Complication category, 5078 or something...), if not from VC or IWC

So far only Lange, Patek and IWC, other brands not "holy" enough?

Richard Mille RM008? Audemars piguet tourbillon?? Hard to guess because you said it is the "ultimate" holy grail. Can't be anything less than that and the ones mentioned..

normally 'holy grail by any standard with grand complication' price is hard to fall until 'acceptable' level......unless the brand itself is not the 'very popular' 1.

So my guess is Frank Muller Grand Complication in white gold.
