hello everyone.
When I write a column every week, a month goes by really quickly, and before I knew it, it's already October this weekend. There are only three months left in 2020, but every year when I see the last few months, I get motivated to work hard so that I won't have any regrets this year! (lol) *Too late!!
Anyway, leaving aside my pointless story, the last ranking of Patek Philippe's top 10 sales was very well received, so I'd like to continue the ranking this time as well (lol).
As I write, I find that there are actually a lot of interesting models in places 11 to 20, so I think it's worth looking at and I hope you'll enjoy it until the end.
*Rankings are based on models sold in stores (listed on the website).
*The current market evaluation and value of some watches may have changed.
*Depending on the condition of the watch at the time of sale, the price may vary.
The products we will be introducing below are also available in the video below, so please take a look!

The moderate size and thickness make it very cool. You can see the beautifully finished movement through the see-through case back, and although it is hard to see these days, the popularity of the Nautilus has led to a rise in prices.
summary
These are the top 11 to 20 best-selling Patek Philippe watches of all time. What do you think?
As expected from Patek Philippe , known for its high-class watches, I think the watches ranked 11th and below are in a price range that is difficult to easily afford.
As I write this, I am reminded once again that there are a lot of models that you don't normally get to see all at once.
I will continue to do my best to write columns that will please all my readers!
see you!
