    Default Patek Philippe sells for record $6.31 million

    An auction house says a Patek Philippe gold wristwatch sold for a record price of $US5.7 million ($6.31 million) at a Swiss auction.

    Christie's said on Tuesday it was the highest price ever for a watch from the auction house and a record price for any yellow gold wristwatch ever sold at auction. The 1943 piece was bought by a private Swiss museum. Christie's declined to identify the museum.

    The watch features a perpetual calendar chronograph with moon phases


    East bound and down, loaded up and truckin',
    we're gonna do what they say can't be done.

    Timeless piece though. I've only seen one Patek Philippe in my life, but it was probably the best watch I've yet to see.
