Chapter 51 Show up

Yang Jing held an electrician's knife in his left hand and a flat-blade screwdriver in his right, and pried the position between the back panel and the top panel of the clock with great effort, where there was already a slight gap.

Beside Yang Jing, there are many gadgets here and there. These tools, including the ones Yang Jing is holding now, were all borrowed by Yang Jing from the maintenance department of the hotel on the entrustment of the doorman before going upstairs.

Although Yang Jing knows a lot about clocks, he is not clear about the structure of clocks. However, this antique clock is so delicately made that there is no screw to be seen outside, so Yang Jing doesn't know where to start.

Yang Jing didn't dare to violently destroy the clock, for fear of breaking the watch hidden inside. This antique clock doesn't matter to Yang Jing, it will be dismantled if it is dismantled, but if the Patek Philippe inside is accidentally damaged, then there is really no place to cry.

After much deliberation, Yang Jing decided to start with the back panel.

This clock is worthy of being a product of Hermler, Germany. I don’t know how to bond the back plate and the top plate. Anyway, it is definitely not glued together, otherwise it would have been pried off a long time ago.

Yang Jing reckoned that the shell of this clock was most likely joined by mortise and tenon, otherwise the top plate and back plate would not be so tightly bonded. It's just that Yang Jing really can't figure it out, can metal and wood be combined in the form of mortise and tenon?

But it turns out that the top plate and the back plate, and even the top plate and the side plate are really combined in the form of mortise and tenon.

Yang Jing spent a lot of effort to finally remove the back panel. At this time, he discovered that there were indeed holes on the silver top panel, and the back panel made of wood was directly forced into the socket. eye-catching.

Just this way of mortise and tenon joint is enough to show the exquisite craftsmanship of Hemler.

After the back panel is removed, the entire antique clock can basically be seen at a glance.

The two side panels were also removed in the same way, and the inside of this antique clock worth 10,000 euros was finally revealed.

It's just that Yang Jing searched and searched, but he couldn't find where the Patek Philippe Platinum World Time watch was hidden.

Yang Jing even disassembled the movement in the end, so he didn't see the watch.

Could it be that the holy ring is wrong? This situation made Yang Jing start to doubt.

The entire clock has been almost disassembled, and it will really become parts if it is dismantled again. But a watch is not too small, it is impossible to dismantle it to this extent and still not see it.

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

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

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

In fact, after Yang Jing disassembled the clock just now, he could use the identification skills of the holy ring to determine where the watch was hidden, but Yang Jing did not do so.

The treasure that I find out by myself is the most exciting thing!

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

Yang Jing picked up the base in disbelief, and began to tap everywhere with his fingers.

Well, there is no problem here, and there is no problem here, hey, there seems to be something wrong with the sound here.

When Yang Jing's fingers hit the base near the middle, the sound finally appeared a little different, as if the wood in this part was a bit hollow.

This discovery lifted Yang Jing's spirits, and he found a magnifying glass from the pile of scattered tools, and began to observe this part carefully.

Not to mention, the mistake was to use a magnifying glass, otherwise Yang Jing would really not be able to see the difference between this part and other places.

The grain of the wood in this part is vaguely inconsistent with the grain of the wood in other places, as if the wood in this part has been sawn off and then glued back together. However, the person who did this job at the beginning obviously did it very carefully. If Yang Jing hadn't found something wrong with the wood grain with a magnifying glass, he really wouldn't be able to see any difference between this place and other parts.

Turning his head to look at the dismantled movement, Yang Jing smiled helplessly and said to himself: The movement is all disassembled, so there is no need to keep this base! Damn it, isn't it just 10,000 ohms! dismantle!

Just do it.

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

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

Apparently, someone had hollowed out this part of the wood, and then this person thinned the wood and put it back. Finally, special glue was used to bond this piece of wood to the base.

Yang Jing picked up a wallpaper knife and began to cut slowly along the cracks. It took about ten minutes to cut off all the glue filled in the cracks.

Switching back to the electrician's knife, carefully cracking the blade of the knife, with a little force, this piece of wood, which is eight centimeters long and less than five centimeters wide, immediately tilted up at one end.

After removing the wooden block with his hands, Yang Jing's little heart suddenly started beating violently.

Under the wooden block, a mass of cotton cloth appeared. Obviously, there was something wrapped in this mass of cotton cloth.

Carefully took out the ball of cotton cloth, put it on the bed and opened it slowly, a brand new wrist 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.

But the most eye-catching thing is the dial.

The dial is divided into three circles. The innermost circle is a normal twelve-hour dial, and twelve long bars represent twelve hours.

On 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. But the strange thing is 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 o'clock, it is replaced by a dot.

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

As for the outermost layer, place names are marked one by one, such as London, such as Greenwich, such as Tokyo.

This unique dial structure made 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 with his own eyes before, there were many pictures of this watch on the Internet. After all, this watch was the most expensive watch in the world before 2015.

This unique 24-hour dial with white on the top and black on the bottom is one of the hallmarks of Patek Philippe Platinum World Time watches!
