My Time - Silver Edition

Livre en langue anglaise

This large format Ultimate reference book reveals to the public a watch collection never seen before. Celebrated vintage Patek Phlippe and Rolex wristwatches and  a fine selection of mid-century Audemars Piguet, Vacheron & Constantin and Cartier timepieces are presented lavishly with in this massive book.

Many of these unique pieces have not been seen in the collecting community before, in particular a rare Rolex split-second wristwatch. ‘There are only 12 in the world and I have two,’ Fratini says modestly. His favourite timepiece, however, is the highly desirable steel Patek Philippe 1518, of which Fratini has two examples in his collection. ‘It represents everything I am looking for in a watch,’ he says of a truly exceptional timepiece, even in the context of rare Patek Philippe watches, which can sell for upwards of $10 million.
