Buyers should assume that any watch purchased at auction will require regular, and often immediate, servicing. Originality of parts, forming the structure of the watch and its bracelet/strap and all constituent parts, and the internal movement, should not be assumed.

BREITLING. A SPECIALISED TITANIUM QUARTZ WRISTWATCH WITH EMERGENCY BEACON

EMERGENCY, REF.E56121.1, SERIAL NO.4877, PURCHASED NEW IN 1999

Quartz movement, grey/blue dial with white numerals and luminous quarters, outer raised luminous batons, apertures for LCD display, baton hands, titanium case with reverse secured by 4 screws, emergency beacon antennas secured by two screw-down caps, rotatable bezel calibrated to 360 degrees with cardinal points, on titanium Breitling bracelet with extension links, folding locking buckle. Accompanied by the original Breitling briefcase, large operation instructions, operation booklet, VHS tape instructions, beacon test receiver, screwdriver, numbered Breitling warranty dated 31/07/1999, original sales receipt from Airbijoux, Geneve, signed Emergency ‘Conditions of Sales’ statement and various Breitling service receipts for 2000, spare link.

Diameter 43mm, approx. inner bracelet diameter 190mm.

Provenance: Purchased new by the consignor in 1999 for use while working as a flight attendant in Asia, the watch provided safety reassurance considering his numerous hours spent on a plane. The owner has retained all accumulated paperwork related to the watch since he purchased in new in 1999, discounted with proof he worked in aviation, for CHF4,394.

£800-1,200

Released in 1995, the Emergency was the world’s first wristwatch to feature an integral beacon that transmitted on the international distress frequency of 121.5Mhz. With the transmission receivable up to 167km away, initially, the watch was only available to licensed pilots, however later versions could be purchased provided a contract was signed stating the transmitter could only be activated during clear situations of distress exclusively during aeronautical activities, a penalty fee would be due for misuse. As a one-time only beacon, if used in a genuine emergency, Breitling would replace the watch without charge. In 2009, the 121.5Mhz frequency was being phased out as the primary distress frequency for international search and rescue and in 2010, Breitling discontinued the original version. The model remains an iconic, historically interesting example of modern innovation in watches built for purpose.

It is believed fewer than 100 examples of the Ref.3418 were manufactured over a four year period.

AUDEMARS PIGUET. A FINE AND RARE

MID-SIZE 18K WHITE GOLD SELFWINDING WRISTWATCH

CASE NO.B31317, MOVEMENT NO.176027 MADE CIRCA 1978

This example, using movement Cal.120/1 but retaining the superior Gyromax balance, would most likely be one of the very last to do so.

ILBERY, LONDON. AN EXCEPTIONALLY FINE, VERY RARE & IMPORTANT GOLD AND ENAMEL CENTRE SECONDS DUPLEX POCKET WATCH, MADE FOR THE CHINESE MARKET

NO.6068, MADE CIRCA 1820. ENAMEL SCENE ATTRIBUTABLE TO JEAN-LOUIS RICHTER

Highly decorated gilt movement with duplex escapement, three-arm steel balance with diamond end-stone, blued steel balance-spring and blued steel compensation weights.

Inner case back additionally numbered 44.

Diameter 59mm.

£10,000-20,000

The identical watch in all aspects, movement number 6067 and similarly numbered 44 to the inner reverse, was sold by Christie’s London in 2005. Although Chinese market watches were sometimes created as a ‘mirror pair’, identical examples are especially rare.

Jean-Louis Richter (1766-1841) is considered a master-enameller with examples of his work found, amongst other places, in the Metropolitan Museum of Art. Specialising in landscapes and marine scenes for snuff boxes and watches for the Asian markets, this example is particularly notable for the original undamaged condition of the principle enamel scene.

WILLIAM ILBERY (1760-1839) is one of the highest regarded and best known London makers of watches for the Asian market, adopting the decorated style of movement with duplex escapement with raised barrel, as found on this example. The cases Ilbery used for his Asian market watches were always of the highest quality and he worked with some of the best Genevan enamellers of the period such as Jean-Francois-Victor Dupont and Jean-Louis Richter. In researching this lot, examples of Chinese market watches by Ilbery that have previously appeared at auction, numbered 60XX, are of similar size, style featuring European characters, and usually described as ‘exceptional’.

Accompanied by a period correct Dent, 28 Cockspur St, Charing Cross, London wristwatch box and vintage strap buckle stamped 18ct.

Diameter 36mm.

Provenance: From the family of the original owner.

£2,000-4,000

Note: Lieutenant Colonel William Petty, (1875-1963) apparently fought in the second Boer War (1899-1902), before returning to the UK to be a schoolteacher, he then enrolled in the First World War (1914-1918) with the SeaForth Highlanders and was also active in the Second World War (19391945), although due to his age, remained based in the UK, eventually retiring from a highly decorated military career.

Dent, a highly reputable and famous London clock and watchmaker is today most famous for constructing Big Ben. When first introduced, wristwatches worn by men were very unfashionable within society and the sale of wristwatches didn’t overtake pocket watches until 1930. The first world war significantly changed the masculine viewpoint on what was considered an item of jewellery, due to the practicality of wearing a watch on your wrist.

It’s very possible, indeed likely, after serving in the Boer War, Mr Petty appreciated the practicality of a wristwatch and sought to purchase one when financially viable. Although it’s possible this 1911 example was converted from a pocket watch, the wristwatch box is of the correct period, another tell is the catch to release the cover via the crown as found in pocket watches has been removed, so the cover remains permanently closed. This was a design flaw in converted wristwatches as the cover would flip open and get caught on clothing, damaging it. Although the fact the watch is hallmarked 1911, no doubt when new, and the cover, with matching 43 stamp, is hallmarked for 1920, leading one to believe the watch was worn during the first world war, the cover damaged and replaced by the Dent factory post war. The gold buckle is of the correct style for a a pre-1920s wristwatch, making this one of the earliest wristwatches to appear.

In 2023 it was announced that Partners Group, the ownership group behind Breitling watches, had acquired the rights to Universal Geneve. This acquisition was keenly noted by the watch community with renewed anticipation on the future of Universal Geneve watches, and how this would affect the value of vintage examples.

Note: The significantly rarer Medico-Compax uses the same model reference as the more common Uni-Compax model with a 45 minute register, yet instead of a tachometer scale, the dial has a base 15 pulsations scale to measure a heart rate. Released in 1945, this example, without shock-protection, would have been an early production model.

Careful research of the Tank Louis model, introduced in 1973, identifies several variations. The reference can be found with three distinct features to the dial and crown. Mk1 dial with flat A on the Cartier signature, Mk2 with pointed A and Mk3, the most common type found, with flat A and Cartier signature within the 7 numeral. Similarly, minor variations can be found on the crown, Mk1 with a long pointed cabochon, Mk2 with slightly shorter cabochon and Mk3 with a significantly shorter and rounded cabochon. This example, offered in excellent original condition from the original owner, retains the correct Mk2 dial and Mk2 crown with crisp numbers to the reverse and gold stamp still visible to the case.

From the family of former President of Haiti, (19501956) Paul Eugene Magloire, he was apparently gifted the lighter by the President of Nicaragua, (1950-1956) Anastasio Somoza Garcia prior to his assassination in September 1956.

Historical photographs would indicate the two Presidents enjoyed an informal and close friendship, befitting such a personal gift. According to our research, 1956 was the only year this style of lighter, that retailed for US$18, was stamped with both Patent and Patent Pending to the inner case.

VACHERON & CONSTANTIN. A VERY RARE, UNUSUAL AND HISTORICALLY INTERESTING ALUMINIUM POCKET WATCH

CASE NO.336508, MOVEMENT NO.497758, MADE CIRCA 1954, PRESENTED IN JANUARY 1955

Cal.439/7, 17 jewel movement with fine-regulation, adjusted to temperatures, silvered dial with applied Breguet numerals, Breguet hands, subsidiary seconds, three-piece aluminium case with reverse engraved ‘’TO THE PRESIDENT OF HAITI GENERAL PAUL EUGENE

MAGLOIRE ON HIS VISIT TO THE UNITED STATES JANUARY

1955’. Case, dial and movement signed.

Diameter 44mm, thickness 10mm, total weight 21g.

£1,000-2,000

From the family of former President of Haiti, Paul Eugene Magloire, this watch was presented to him by the American President Dwight D. Eisenhower upon his official state visit from January 26February 6, 1955.

General Magloire was elected President of Haiti in 1950 and was responsible for increasing tourism and foreign investment within the country. After the devastating Hurricane Hazel hit both Haiti, causing immense damage, and then America, in 1954, the two Presidents of their respective countries opened dialogue, most likely instigating the invitation for Present Magloire and his wife, Mrs Yolette LeConte Magloire to visit America, with their official accommodation the Lincoln Bedroom at The White House. A New York ticker-tape parade from Battery to City Hall was held in their honour on January 31, 1955.

Aluminium pocket watches by Vacheron Constantin are particularly rare, with the three-piece case and movement plate made using aluminium to create a strong yet lightweight pocket watch. Conceived in 1937, it is believed less than 300 examples were manufactured and prominently issued as retirement gifts to people working in the aluminium industry until approximately 1955. The movement of this example is stamped VXN indicated it was designated for the American market.

Provenance: Consigned by the original owner, who was gifted the watch while in Zurich by his parents for his 20th birthday in 1968. It has remained in his possession ever since while being worn and enjoyed with regular servicing, however, importantly, he wisely chose not to replace any principle parts that would alter the appearance. By doing so, the watch offers a rare naturally faded dial and bezel providing an evenly aged, authentic, vintage look while retaining strong definition to the faceted case.

£7,000-9,000

Previously known as the ‘Vogue Chronograph’ and signed Jaeger LeCoultre, with the US Version signed only LeCoultre on the dial and known as the ‘Deep Sea Shark.’ Today, Jaeger LeCoultre’s heritage department list this model simply as the ‘Shark Deep Sea’. The model only appears to have been available for a relatively short period in the late 1960’s, with the majority of the small number that have been offered publicly, falling within a relatively close serial number range, furthermore, very few examples known were signed Jaeger LeCoultre. Created in a well-proportioned 40mm case, with iconic panda dial, this lot offers an excellent opportunity to acquire a rare 1960’s functional watch with obvious vintage appeal.

A. BEFORE THE SALE

1. DESCRIPTIONS OF LOTS

Whilst we seek to describe Lots accurately, it may be impractical for us to carry out exhaustive due diligence on each Lot. Prospective Buyers are given ample opportunities to view and inspect before any sale and they (and any independent experts on their behalf) must satisfy themselves as to the accuracy of any description applied to a Lot. Prospective Buyers also bid on the understanding that, inevitably, representations or statements by us as to authorship, genuineness, origin, date, age, provenance, condition or Estimated selling price involve matters of opinion. We undertake that any such opinion shall be honestly and reasonably held and only accept liability for opinions given negligently or fraudulently. Subject to the foregoing neither we the Auctioneer or our employees or agents accept liability for the correctness of such opinions and no warranties, whether relating to description, condition or quality of Lots, express, implied or statutory, are given. Please note that photographs/images provided may not be fully representative of the condition of the Lot and should not be relied upon as indicative of the overall condition of the Lot. All dimensions and weights are approximate only.

2. OUR RESPONSIBILITY FOR OUR DESCRIPTION OF LOTS

We do not provide any guarantee in relation to the nature of a Lot apart from our authenticity warranty contained in paragraph E.2 and to the extent provided below.

(a) Condition Reports: Condition Reports are provided on our Website or upon request. The absence of a report does not imply that a Lot is without imperfections. Large numbers of such requests are received shortly before each sale and department specialists and administration will endeavour to respond to all requests although we offer no guarantee. Any statement in relation to the Lot is merely an expression of opinion of the Seller or us and should not be relied upon as an inducement to bid on the Lot. Lots are available for inspection prior to the sale and You are strongly advised to examine any Lot in which You are interested prior to the sale. Our Condition Reports are not prepared by professional conservators, restorers or engineers. Our Condition Report does not form any contract between us and the Buyer. The Condition Reports do not affect the Buyer’s obligations in any way.

(b) Estimates: Estimates are placed on each Lot to help Buyers gauge the sums involved for the purchase of a particular Lot. Estimates do not include the Buyer’s Premium or VAT. Estimates are a matter of opinion and prepared in advance. Estimates may be subject to change and are for guidance only and should not be relied upon.

(c) Catalogue Alterations: Lot descriptions and Estimates are prepared in advance of the sale and may be subject to change. Any alterations will be announced on the Catalogue alteration sheet, made available prior to the sale.

4.

JEWELLERY, CLOCKS & OTHER ITEMS

(a) Jewellery:

(i) Coloured gemstones (such as rubies, sapphires and emeralds) may have been treated to enhance their look, through methods such as heating and oiling. These methods are accepted practice but may make the gemstone less strong and/or require special care in future.

(ii) All types of gemstones may have been improved by some method. You may request a gemmological report for

any Lot which does not have a report if the request is made to us at least three weeks before the date of the sale and You pay the fee for the report in advance of receiving said report.

(iii) We do not obtain a gemmological report for every gemstone sold in our sales. Where we do get gemmological reports from internationally accepted gemmological laboratories, such reports may be described in the Sale Particulars. Reports will describe any improvement or treatment only if we request that they do so, but will confirm when no improvement or treatment has been made. Because of differences in approach and technology, laboratories may not agree whether a particular gemstone has been treated, the amount of treatment or whether treatment is permanent. The gemmological laboratories will only report on the improvements or treatments known to the laboratories at the date of the report.

(iv) For jewellery sales, all Estimates are based on the information in any gemmological report or, if no gemmological report is available, You should assume that the gemstones may have been treated or enhanced.

(b) Clocks & Watches: All Lots are sold “as seen”, and the absence of any reference to the condition of a clock or watch does not imply the Lot is in good condition and without defects, repairs or restorations. Most clocks and watches will have been repaired during their normal lifetime and may now incorporate additional/ newer parts. Furthermore, we make no representation or warranty that any clock or watch is in working order. As clocks and watches often contain fine and complex mechanisms, Buyers should be aware that a general service, change of battery or further repair work, for which the Buyer is solely responsible, may be necessary. Buyers should also be aware that we cannot guarantee a watch will remain waterproof if the back is removed. Buyers should be aware that the importing watches such as Rolex, Frank Muller and Corum into the United States is highly restricted. These watches cannot be shipped to the USA and only imported personally. Clocks may be sold without pendulums, weights or keys.

(c) Alcohol: may only be sold to persons aged of 18 years and over. By registering to bid, You affirm that You are at least that age. All collections must be signed for by a person over the age of 18. We Reserve the right to ask for ID from the person collecting. Buyers of alcohol must make appropriate allowances for natural variations of ullages, conditions of corks and wine. We can provide no guarantees as to how the alcohol may have been stored. There is always a risk of cork failure and allowance by the Buyer must be made. Alcohol is sold “as is” and quality of the alcohol is entirely at the risk of the Buyer and no

warranties are given.

(d) Books-Collation: If on collation any named item in the sale Catalogue proves defective, in text or illustration the Buyer may reject the Lot provided he returns it within 21 days of the sale stating the defect in writing. This, however, shall not apply in the case of unnamed items, periodicals, autographed letters, music M.M.S., maps, drawings nor in respect of damage to bindings, stains, foxing, marginal worm holes or other defects not affecting the completeness of the text nor in respect of Defects mentioned in the Catalogue, or at the time of sale, nor in respect of Lots sold for less than £300.

(e) Electrical Goods: are sold as “works of art” only and if bought for use must be checked over for compliance with safety regulations by a qualified electrician first. Use of such goods is entirely at the risk of the Buyer and no warranties as to safety of the goods are given.

(f) Upholstered items: are sold as “works of art” only and if bought for use must be checked over for compliance with safety regulations (items manufactured prior to 1950 are exempt from any regulations). Use of such goods is entirely at the risk of the Buyer and no warranties as to safety of the goods are given. We provide no guarantee as to the originality of any wood/material contained within the item.

PRICE

For each Lot purchased a Buyer’s Premium of 26% of the Hammer Price of each Lot up to and including £20,000, plus 25% from £20,001 to £500,000, plus 20% from £500,001 thereafter. VAT at the appropriate rate is charged on the Buyer’s Premium. No VAT is payable on the Hammer Price or premium for printed books or unframed maps bought at auction. Live online bidding may be subject to an additional premium (level dependent on the live bidding service provider chosen). This additional premium is subject to VAT at the appropriate rate as above.

2. VALUE ADDED TAX

Value Added Tax is charged at the appropriate rate prevailing by law at the date of sale and is payable by Buyers of relevant Lots.

(a) Lots affixed with (†): Value Added Tax on the Hammer Price is imposed by law on all items affixed with a dagger (†). This imposition of VAT maybe because the Seller is registered for VAT within the European Union and is not operating under a Margin Scheme.

(b) Lots affixed with (*): A reduced rate of Value Added Tax on the Hammer Price of 5% is payable. This indicates that a Lot has been imported from outwit the European Union. This reduced rate is applicable to Antique items.

(c) Lots affixed with [Ω]: Standard rate of Value Added Tax on the Hammer Price and premium is payable. This applies to items that have been imported from outwit the European Union and do not fall within the reduced rate category outlined above.

3. ARTIST’S RESALE ROYALTY (DROIT DE SUITE)

This symbol § indicates works which may be subject to the Droit de Suite or Artist’s Resale Right, which took effect in the United Kingdom on 14th February 2006. We are required to collect a royalty payment for all qualifying works of art. Under new legislation which came into effect on 1st January 2012 this applies to living artists and artists who have died in the last 70 years. This royalty will be charged to the Buyer on the Hammer Price and in addition to the Buyer’s Premium. It will not apply to works where the Hammer Price is less than £1,000. The charge for works of art sold at and above £1,000 and below £50,000 is 4%. For items selling above £50,000, charges are calculated on a sliding scale. All royalty charges are paid to the Design and Artists Copyright Society (‘DACS’) and no handling costs or additional fees are retained by the Auctioneer. Resale royalties are not subject to VAT.
