Patek Philippe Grand Complications 6300G-001 Grandmaster Chime

About This Watch

The Patek Philippe Grand Complications 6300G-001 Grandmaster Chime is the most complicated wristwatch Patek Philippe has ever produced, featuring 20 complications including five acoustic functions. Originally created as a unique piece for the brand's 175th anniversary in 2014, a white gold production version followed in 2019. The 47.7mm reversible case features two dials: one displaying the time and perpetual calendar, the other showing a second time zone and date. The acoustic complications include a grande sonnerie (automatically chiming the hours and quarters), petite sonnerie (chiming only the hours), minute repeater, alarm, and date repeater. The movement contains 1,366 components, making it one of the most complex watch movements ever assembled. The 6300G is priced at $2.6 million, placing it among the most expensive production watches in the world. Each example takes more than a year to assemble and adjust by a single master watchmaker. The reversible case pays homage to the Patek Philippe ref. 5016, considered one of the greatest watches ever made. The Grandmaster Chime exists at the absolute frontier of mechanical watchmaking capability.
