Global Luxury List is a book published by Zhang Yubin in 2009. This book mainly tells the stories of famous watch brands such as Patek Philippe, Breguet, Audemars Piguet, Vacheron Constantin, Jaeger-LeCoultre and Zippo. We can feel what is art and dignity from their impeccable products.

If time is an intangible luxury, then high-end clocks and watches are tangible luxury. Although we can read the time from each watch, when we face a Vacheron Constantin double-sided astronomical watch composed of 834 parts, the price is as high as 6.5438+0.5 million yuan, and a Earl Count watch with 492 diamonds worth more than 8 million yuan.

1587, when the world's first timepiece was born in Switzerland, after endless hours were divided into seconds, the years became tangible and people's lives became regular. Any product that develops to the extreme will circulate in the world in the form of works of art, and clocks and watches are no exception.

Definition of a watch:

Luxury is a material enjoyment, so it is a spiritual definition. It gives us many good sensory feelings and makes us live more tastefully. Maybe we can't have the tourbillon diamond watch inlaid with top American diamonds by the Earl, nor can we piece together the "Eight Kings Series" created by Audemars Piguet with first-class technology.
