Our friends over at Hodinkee did a very interesting hands-on review with Eric Clapton’s Patek Philippe ref.2499 Chronograph Calendar timepiece in platinum. Only two 2499 watches have been made in platinum, only one of them was sold on the market. Click here to read all about this magnificent Patek over at Hodinkee’s.

Watch the video below for Ben Clymer’s visit to Christie’s in New York City.
