Yang Jing, with an electrician's knife in his left hand and a slotted screwdriver in his right hand, laboriously pried the position between the back plate and the top plate of the clock, where there had been a slight gap.

There are many gadgets scattered around Yang Jing. These tools, including those in Yang Jing's hand, were borrowed from the maintenance department of the hotel by Yang Jing's doorman just before going upstairs.

Although Yang Jing knows a lot about clocks and watches, he is not clear about the structure of clocks and watches. However, the antique clock is very precise. There is no screw outside. Yang Jing doesn't know where to start.

Yang Jing dared not break the clock violently for fear of damaging the watch hidden inside. This antique clock doesn't matter to Yang Jing. If it's disassembled, it'll be disassembled. But if the Patek Philippe inside is accidentally damaged, there's really no place to cry.

After thinking about it, Yang Jing decided to start with the back plate.

This clock is worthy of being a product of helmler, Germany. I don't know how to bond the back plate and the top plate. Anyway, it's definitely not glued with glue, otherwise it would have been pried off.

Yang Jing estimated that the shell of the clock is likely to be combined in the form of mortise and tenon, otherwise the top plate and back plate will not be combined so tightly. But Yang Jing really can't figure it out. Can metal and wood also be combined in the form of mortise and tenon?

But facts have proved that the top plate and back plate, even between the top plate and side plate, are really combined in the form of mortise and tenon.

Yang Jing spent nine cattle and two tigers to finally remove the back plate. At this time, he found that there were indeed sockets on the silver top plate, and the back plate made of wood was directly stuffed into the sockets.

Just this way of mortise and tenon combination is enough to see the exquisite craftsmanship of hemler.

After the back plate is removed, the whole antique clock is basically at a glance.

In the same way, the two side plates were also removed, and the interior of the 10000 Euro antique clock was finally revealed.

But Yang Jing looked around and didn't find where the Patek Philippe platinum world time watch was hidden.

Yang Jing even broke the movement into pieces at last. She was stunned that she didn't see the watch.

"Is the holy ring wrong?" this situation made Yang Jing have to start to doubt.

The whole clock has been disassembled almost, and then it will really become a part. But a wristwatch is not small. It is impossible to see it when it is disassembled to this extent.

Finally, Yang Jing's eyes fell on the base about five centimeters thick.

The base of the clock is made of a whole piece of mahogany. It bears the weight of the whole clock and is also the heaviest part of the whole clock except the movement.

The possibility of movement has been completely ruled out, so if there is any place to hide a watch, it is only the base.

In fact, Yang Jing just opened the clock and could use the identification skills of the holy ring to determine where the watch was hidden, but Yang Jing didn't do so.

The baby you find out is the most exciting!

Yang Jing carefully observed the base, but found that there were no other holes in it except the sockets.

Not believing in evil, Yang Jing picked up the base and began to beat it everywhere with her fingers.

"Well, there's no problem here, and there's no problem here. Eh, there seems to be something wrong with the sound here..."

When Yang Jing's finger knocked on the base near the middle, the sound was finally a little different. It seemed that the wood in this part was a little empty.

Yang Jing was inspired by this discovery. He found a magnifying glass from the pile of scattered tools and began to observe this part carefully.

Don't say, it's wrong that a magnifying glass is used, otherwise Yang Jing really can't see the difference between this part and other places.

The wood grain in this part vaguely does not match the wood grain in other places, as if the wood in this part had been sawn off and then bonded again. But the people who did this work at the beginning obviously did it very carefully. If Yang Jing hadn't found a trace of something wrong with the wood grain with a magnifying glass, he really couldn't see the difference between here and other parts.

Turning around to look at the disassembled 708 pieces of movement, Yang Jing said to herself with a helpless wry smile: "the movement has been disassembled, and this base can't be saved! Mom, it's 10000 euros! Disassemble!"

Do what you say.

Yang Jing took out a piece of fine sandpaper and began to polish this part. Within five minutes, the wood skin in this part was polished clean.

Sure enough, under the veneer, there was an obvious rectangular trace.

Obviously, the wood in this part was hollowed out by someone, and then the person thinned the wood and put it back again. Finally, the wood was bonded to the base with special glue.

Yang Jing picked up another wallpaper knife and began to cut slowly along the crack. It took more than ten minutes to cut off all the glue filled in the crack.

Change back to the electrician's knife, carefully crack the blade, and with a slight force, the wood block with a length of eight centimeters and less than five centimeters immediately tilted up.

After removing the wood block by hand, Yang Jing's careful dirty immediately jumped up violently.

Under the wooden block, there was a ball of something similar to cotton cloth. Obviously, there was something wrapped in this ball of cotton cloth.

Carefully took out the cotton cloth, put it on the bed and slowly opened it. A brand-new watch immediately appeared in front of Yang Jing.

The case and dial of this watch have the unique light of platinum. Obviously, the case and dial of this watch are made of platinum.

The most attractive thing is the dial.

The dial is divided into three circles. The inner circle is the normal twelve hour dial, which is represented by twelve long bar marks.

In the outer circle of the twelve hour dial, that is, the second circle, the time is marked with 23 Arabic numerals, from 1 to 23. However, it is strange that these 23 Arabic numerals are not marked in the normal order.

The position of 1 is at 7:30, and then arranged every half hour until 23 at 6:30. As for the position at 7:00, use a point instead.

And this circle of numbers, the upper right circle, that is, from 6 to 18, is white, and the lower left circle, from 18 to 6, is black. Black and white, especially conspicuous. This circle is the 24-hour dial. The white part represents the day and the black part represents the night.

As for the outermost layer, it is marked with place names, such as London, Greenwich and Tokyo

This unique dial structure makes Yang Jing recognize the real identity of this watch at a glance - Patek Philippe platinum world time watch.

Although Yang Jing had never seen this watch before, there are many pictures of this watch on the Internet. After all, this watch is the most expensive wristwatch in the world before 2015.

This unique 24-hour dial with white top and black bottom is one of the symbols of Patek Philippe platinum world time watch!
