Edward finished speaking, and Chu Mo instinctively glanced at the wristwatch he was wearing.
It was a Patek Philippe Ref.6300A model acquired at the Only Watch charity auction, where the final price soared to 35.46 million Swiss francs, approximately 250 million RMB—a record-breaking sum.
The watch Chu Mo was wearing at that moment had been the most expensive in history, shattering the world record previously held by a Rolex Paul Newman Daytona in 2017, which sold for 130 million RMB.
Patek Philippe was known as the "King of Watches," and the most complicated among its models was considered the "King of Kings."
In 2014, to celebrate its 175th anniversary, Patek Philippe released the Ref.5175 model. This wearable complex watch featured 20 functions and required over 100,000 hours for research, manufacturing, and assembly, with nearly 60,000 hours spent on crafting the movement parts alone.
