I was comparing and contrasting these two remarkably similar QPs from AP and Vacheron but, from one exhibitor's booth over, a Patek 3940J kept whispering to me. link Pick me up and play link with me, it said. And because it said Patek Philippe on the dial, I obliged and brought it next link to the AP and Vacheron.

Though this example link isn't the first to hit the market in ages, I'd argue that it's easily one of the best I've seen all year.
