Somehow I did a dupe post and can’t delete. So I’ll also say the 1941 Remontoire by Grönefeld.

There's certainly more expensive watches but I'll take a Patek Celestial.

If I'm being silly about it, a Jacob & Co Godfather Diamond.

Excellent choice!!!

Yeah, have been getting 'simpler' timepieces as of recent (Czapek, MB&F LM101, etc), so the PD i choose would help 'round out' the collection :)
