Most Expensive Watch in the World
Written by: tom Filed Under: Collectibles, Fashion, Luxury, World on February 22nd, 2006The Swiss watchmaker Vacheron Constantin marked its 250th anniversary in 2005 with the world’s most expensive watch. Its name refers to one of the historical sites of the venerable company, located next to the current Maison Vacheron Constantin on the Quai de l’Ile. At $1.5 million, this is the most expensive watch this year.
Tour de l’Ile, Vacheron Constantin
$1,500,000 US dollars
The world’s most expensive watch is also the most complicated double-face watch, and only produced in a limited edition of 7. Tour de l’Ile is made with a totally original combination of horological complications and astronomical indications composing a list of sixteen different points including a minute repeater, sunset time, perpetual calendar, second time zone, a tourbillon device, the equation of time and the representation of the night sky.

As far as I know, the most expensive watch costs 6 million dollars and is made by PATEK PHILIPPE
But Patek Philippe’s 5002 (which is the world’s most complicated wristwatch) also retails for $1,500,000 US dollars. In fact, it is even rarer with only 4 in existence (1 in each metal).

It is very good watch but it dont worth that much of money.

Oh no! I used to have that watch but I sold it at my garage sale for $10! Holy crap!
“Tour de l’Ile is made with a totally original combination of horological complications and astronomical indications composing a list of sixteen different points including a minute repeater, sunset time, perpetual calendar, second time zone, a tourbillon device, the equation of time and the representation of the night sky.” AND it even shows the time. . .
It sure is fantastic, reminiscent of old times.
It’s like the most expensive car Bugatti Veyron, the most expensive cell Goldvish, the most expensive sound system MBL Reference….only for lucky people
Mine watch costed me about 50 dollars and it has chronometer, chrono alarm, world time, moon phase, alarm, iluminator, thermometer, water resistant and its made with stainless steel. ahh and ti also has 3 year waranty , i think that its funny to compare this 50 dollars wath with that 1500000000 dollars.
for me as long as the watch can show me the time is enough. no point buying expensive watch.i better keep in bank or invest it. rite?
I would like to buy a dozen of this lovely watch!
Nice watch.. No one here can “write” in English though.
Richard Mille’s PERINI model’s retail is more expensive than VC’s. Compared 2 A Lange’s, I’d go for A Lange or a Glashutte Saxonian. Or i guess if order a custome made from Phillip Dufor, it can go more than $1.5M. I think someone better revise the listing here..
But can I wear it swimming? Is it an autowind? What sort of shock resistance does it have?
Seriously, for that kind of money I could buy several houses, have a trip to Switzerland to buy some actual useful watches, buy a few more shitbox cars, and still have cash for the second-hand watch market.
What I would really do with 1.5 Million is to RETIRE and NEVER WORK again. I have my priorities straight.

i love to see a man wearing a good expensive watch … .. it oozes sex appeal …..
grrrrr
a worth watch shows the man…an expensive watch shows a mans personality…and its a passion or a hobby like all other passions…
Damn I exchange to a friend with my grandpa’s Patek Phillippe Calibre 89 to a Rolex Sumariner. I don’t know its worth 6 million. I think should ask my friend more than just a submariner.
So has anyone ever wondered why all watch ads, including the watch that costs a million or so dollars, all have the time on 10:10? think about it, all watch ads have the same time!
