Patek Philippe's book on the Star Caliber 2000

The Star Caliber 2000 ranks third on the list of the world's most complicated pocket watches and in terms of the number of mechanical complications is surpassed by only two other timepieces: the 1933 Graves and the 1989 Calibre 89 - both of them Patek Philippe creations.

The Geneva-based watch company has devoted an entire book to this pocket watch, in collaboration with the Editions Scriptar. The book comes with a DVD featuring video clips and a 3D animation sequence that invites the observer to journey through the movement of the Star Caliber 2000.

The Star Caliber 2000 book is currently available in French and English. German, Italian and Spanish editions will be published in the spring of 2001. Its retail price is 95.- Swiss Francs.
