But during this announcement, the luxury watch on his hand caught people’s attention. This watch was Greubel Forsey Hand Made 1, which costs approximately 9 lakh US dollars i.e. around 7.5 crore Indian rupees.
Why is the Greubel Forsey so expensive?
The Greubel Forsey Handmade 1 watch is one of the rarest and most intricately crafted watches in the world. The specialty of this watch is that it is made almost entirely by hand. 95% of its parts are made by hand, including the most complex part, the hairspring.
It takes about 6,000 hours to make a watch, which means even if the work goes on day and night, it will still take 250 days. Usually it takes up to 3 years to make it, because work is not done 24 hours a day. Many people work every day, yet only 2-3 such watches are made every year. This is why it becomes very special and unique.
This watch consists of 272 separate parts, each meticulously handcrafted
Usually its models sell in the second-hand market for Rs 2 crore ($150,000) to Rs 4 crore ($500,000) or more. This watch has 272 separate parts, each of which is handcrafted with great precision. It includes detailing such as “gratte” finish, hand-polished edges and specially designed flame-blue hands.
Its case is made of white gold and its power reserve lasts up to 60 hours. It is water-resistant up to a depth of 30 meters. The watch has won the title of “Best Men’s Complication Watch” in 2020.
But this is not the world’s most expensive watch
The world’s most expensive watch is Graff Diamonds Hallucination, which costs 55 million dollars (about Rs 455 crore). 110 carats of colorful rare diamonds have been used to make it, which come in different shapes (pear, heart, round etc.) and colors (pink, blue, yellow, green). This watch is set on a platinum bracelet. It was introduced by the Graff Diamonds company in 2014. It tells time like every watch, but wearing it is considered a symbol of royal style and luxury.
