Although this is not a new segment, it was on last nite on a Roadshow 10-year retrospective. This item was from a show done in St. Paul, MN, in 2005, I believe.

The appraiser said that this was the finest watch he had ever held in his hands and that Patek was buying up their old watches for their museum. BTW, it's a minute repeater and has 3 complications on the reverse side; in original case with extra mainsprings and chrystals.

The first link below is to the video of the segment; the second link is to a summary.
