The Cartier Replica watches was designed to run forever

The folks at Antiquorum released this video of junior expert Courtney Carter explaining one of the sale's sure-to-be highlights. This watch is complicated and expensive. It is an Audemars Piguet Jules Audemars Tourbillon Chronograph Minute Repeater in white gold and set in diamonds. Only three of this exact watch were made, and they've got one for sale with an estimate of $200,000-$300,000. Click here for details, and Cartier Replica watches the video below for an up-close look.

The Cartier Replica watches was designed to run forever. The plastic movement was self lubricating, and you couldn't even open the caseback to service it. The Idea 2001 was designed to be thrown away if it should ever break. This fact, coupled with its immense commercial failure when new makes this Tissot one of the holy grails in vintage watch collecting. You simply can not find one, especially one in great, original, working condition. Stephen Hallock happens to have one, and he's giving it to you. Well, really just one of you.
