Collecting is an art, and hidden gems are its treasures waiting to be uncovered. Beyond the well-trodden paths lie secret havens, lesser-known wonders and invaluable insights that fuel our passion.
We want to dig deeper beyond the surface down into that intriguing rabbit hole, we enjoy the emotional and intellectual process of gathering knowledge beyond the web and back into the bookshelves of scholarships.
Phillips is honored to present a series of historically important timepieces and even museum-worthy gems this Spring. From the one of two known white gold Patek Philippe Nautilus Jumbo bestowed with the “Royal Khanjar” to the fresh-to-themarket and elusive pink gold Nautilus ref. 3800, we dig into the archives of Cartier to rediscover some of the most significant horological timepieces of the 21st century, the Far East inspired Chimera “La Pendule Magnétique” water clock, the most impressive and unique water clock ever produced by the maison. Followed by a mind-blowing Cartier table clock carved with an exquisite scenery after the artwork of Imperial painter Dong Bang Da《題董邦達山水小幅·其二·石壁飛泉》 , with inscribed Imperial poem Jade Fu Ping Water Curtain Cave written by Emperor Qianlong《乾 隆皇帝》that will awe Chinese art connoisseurs. A trailblazing masterpiece by none other than the great Patek Philippe spoils us with a minute repeating perpetual calendar double-split chronograph pocket watch ref. 767 from 1952 that deserves to be a trophy piece in a collection.
Embark with us on a journey to unveil these hidden gems and stimulate your collection. We look forward to welcoming you in Hong Kong with our team.

The Rolex GMT-Master II reference 116710BLNR was a true revelation when it was first released at Baselworld 2013, making waves in the scene as it was the very first to feature a black and blue Cerachrom bezel insert. Loved by collectors at immediate glance, the model earned its nickname the “Batman” for its obvious colour combinations. Arguably one of the most desirable contemporary Rolex sports models ever created, the “Batman” is with no doubt a modern classic among its former references.
In production for 6 years until it was discontinued in 2019, it made way for the upgraded reference 126710BLNR featuring a new cal. 3285. Offered in “new-old-stock” condition from circa 2017, the present example reference 116710BLNR is offered with its full set of accessories.

The Rolex Sea-Dweller was specifically designed as a professionalgrade tool watch, prioritizing functionality over aesthetics. The dial exhibits large luminous indexes to ensure easy legibility both on the surface and at great depths. The thicker and larger stainless steel Oyster case is built to withstand the immense pressure experienced underwater up to 4000 feet.
The reference 116600 introduced at Baselworld in 2014 has the shortest production span of all Sea-Dwellers with its discontinuation in 2017. It is the last 40mm Sea-Dweller created by Rolex and it is the final model without a cyclops lens over the date. It retains the characteristics of the original Sea-Dweller, with an upgraded cerachrome bezel featuring minute divisions around its bezel, as opposed to only the first 15 minutes found on earlier references. Additionally, the present example boasts an upgraded glidelock bracelet, which allows divers to extend the bracelet length by 5mm to accommodate wearing it over a wetsuit. The present watch is further preserved in “new-old-stock” condition with original stickers still attached to the case and is accompanied by all of its accessories.
In realm of dive watches, the Rolex Sea-Dweller reference 116600 represents the culmination of the brand’s dedication to producing reliable and robust timepieces for professionals. Its design and features are a testament to Rolex’s commitment to functionality and durability in demanding underwater environments.

Launched in three different sizes, 41mm (ref. 123400), 36mm (ref. 126000) and 31mm (ref. 277200), the lacquered dials were made available in the following colors: pink, green, yellow, turquoise blue, and coral red like the present example. Fitted with the latest in house calibre 3230 that works much more efficiently than its predecessor (Calibre 3130). The new calibre has the chronergy escapement patent by Rolex.
A global sensation when it was revealed by Rolex, the ‘Coral Red’ is aesthetically appealing with the rich and bright red that gives off a sense of boldness and style. Furthermore being extremely legible when contrasting against the stainless steel case. At 36mm in diameter the timepiece sits extremely comfortably on the wrist and definitely calls for attention with its irresistible boldness.

The Rolex GMT-Master II is undoubtedly one of the most sought-after models with its aesthetics remaining very much similar to its original design, most notably the bi-colored “Pepsi” bezel that many are fond of. In 2019, Rolex unveiled the present reference 126719BLRO, the premier GMT Master II in white gold with a magnificent meteorite dial, marking the first time that meteorite has been used on Rolex’s GMT-Master line. Rolex has always been known as a pioneer in the exploration of new materials for watchmaking. The Meteorite dials, made from the Gibeon meteorite that fell in Namibia, are a particular favorite among collectors for their rarity and natural beauty.
Offered in excellent overall condition with its original accessories, this timepiece is surely a highly desirable one to add to any collection of fine professional tool watches.

One of the most seductive dial that have been bestowed on the modern Day-dates is the impressive meteorite dial. A piece of nature from outer space that expresses individuality from each asteroid, the coarse texture creates unique patterns that are captivating and handsome.
The present Rolex Day-Date ref. 228239 is the definition of utilitarian chic. Cased in the pureness of 18K white gold with a sharp fluted bezel that is ever so iconic of the Day-Date lineage, this breezy cool 40mm Day-Date with meteorite dial has extra heft thanks to the 10 baguetteset diamonds that marks the indexes glamorously.
Although the days of the week is the same wherever you are in the world, the Day-Date is famed for expressing the cultural identity of its wearer. Requested by the original owner, this Day-Date is personalized with a Chinese day wheel that elevates the collectability of the present timepiece.
Perfectly distinct with monochromatic coolness, the timepiece is preserved in superb condition and is accompanied with its guarantee and accessories. For those who seeks for an extra special modern Day-Date with a sleek appeal, look no further.

Rolex has a longstanding reputation for creating incredibly robust movements that can withstand the rigors of daily life. However, the brand was not traditionally associated with complex movements. That changed in 2012 with the release of the Sky-Dweller collection.
Mechanically acclaimed as Rolex’s most intricate model, the SkyDweller became the brand’s first watch to combine an annual calendar with a GMT complication. A perfect companion for style-conscious travelers, the watch features a local time zone indicator through a 24-hour rotating disc at the center of the main dial, with a small window towards the edge indicating the month in red. Absolutely well thought and well crafted, the watch’s adjustments are effortlessly made via the Ring Command system, accessed through the iconic fluted bezel. The development of this technology was the result of extensive research, leading to 11 patents filed.
The present Sky-Dweller ref. 336938 in yellow gold was introduced in 2023 and is equipped with the new cal. 9002, an evolution of the original cal. 9001 introduced in 2012. This updated movement incorporates technical innovations that Rolex has implemented across its line, including the Chronergy escapement, Paraflex shock absorbers, and an optimized oscillating weight with a new ball bearing design. With its striking black dial, this particular watch represents the epitome of luxury within the Sky-Dweller range. We are honored to offer this reference for the first time at Phillips, and it is preserved in excellent condition with its full set of original accessories. This presents a fantastic opportunity to acquire one of the most opulent and sophisticated Rolex timepieces ever created.

The Rolex Daytona reference 116508 was introduced at Baselworld in 2016, and it was the first Daytona model in yellow gold to feature the firm’s signature emerald green color on its dial. Ever since it was witnessed on the wrist of the distinguished musician and watch collector, John Mayer, this flamboyant example in yellow gold paired with the striking “vert foncé” colour of the dial has been made one of the most sought-after and recognisable watches on the planet.
With an ever-growing waiting list, it is extremely hard, or virtually impossible, to acquire the present reference 116508 from the boutique. The present is presented in great overall condition, and it is complete with its full set of accessories. Further delivered with the new Rolex service card confirming that the watch has been serviced according to Rolex’s exacting standards, with the international two-year guarantee valid until January 2026, this is without a doubt a terrific opportunity for discerning collectors to obtain this rare and highly desirable timepiece.

A. Lange & Söhne made a significant milestone with the release of their first luxury sports watch in 2019, the Odysseus. This timepiece offered a fresh perspective and a departure from the brand’s traditional designs. While it inherited the signature DNA of A. Lange & Söhne with its outsized day and date display, the Odysseus featured a completely new case design that distinguished it from other sports watches in the market. Unlike the typical stainless steel water-resistant timepieces envisioned by Gérald Genta, the Odysseus presented a unique aesthetic that garnered polarizing reactions from collectors upon its initial release.
The Odysseus is powered by the caliber L155.1 Datomatic which showcases impeccable finishes matching A. Lange & Söhne’s tradition, including an engraved balance cock with a stylized wave pattern instead of the more commonly seen floral decoration. Not surprisingly, the Odysseus quickly captured the attention of discerning collectors and became one of the most sought-after timepieces from the brand, resulting in long waiting lists.
The present Odysseus with a blue dial is in pristine condition and comes with its guarantee and presentation box. It is undoubtedly a timepiece that will catch the eye of seasoned Lange collectors, offering a unique addition to their collection.

In 2019, Cory Richards embarked on his third ascent of Mount Everest, taking on the challenging and treacherous North-East Ridge route. During this expedition, he wore a prototype of the Overseas Dual Time watch specially developed by Vacheron Constantin, featuring a two-tone titanium and tantalum case. This unique timepiece was later auctioned at the “Game Changers New York” auction in December 2019, achieving a price of $106,250 at that time. The design and aesthetic elements of this special watch now serve as the inspiration for the new limited edition Overseas “Everest” watches, with a production limited to 150 pieces released in 2021.
The present watch boasts a captivating grained finish dial in anthracite grey, which provides a striking contrast against the titanium and stainless steel case. To differentiate it from regular production models, the bezel, crown, and pusher guards are crafted from titanium, a lightweight, durable, and corrosion-resistant material. The dial also incorporates vibrant orange accents, adding a dynamic touch that complements the sporty and adventurous aesthetic. Turning the watch over reveals a movement that was coated by an anthracite grey NAC treatment, giving the timepiece a contemporary character. The 22K gold oscillating weight is purposely adorned with an engraving of Mount Everest, inspired by a photograph taken by Cory Richards.
This particular timepiece, numbered 131 out of the 150 pieces produced, is well-preserved and accompanied by its full set of accessories.

Introduced in 1996, the Vacheron Constantin Overseas is a direct descendant of the 222. It has retained the iconic tonneau shaped case and Maltese cross inspired bezel, but it has extended the design to incorporate a metal integrated bracelet, accentuating the watch’s fluid case lines and heightening its sporty elegance. In 2016, the brand introduced the present reference 4500V, featuring a more refined design by Vincent Kaufmann.
Available in either stainless steel or pink gold, the reference 4500V is equipped with an attractive and conveniently interchangeable bracelet, delivered with accompanying crocodile and rubber straps. The present example features an appealing sunburst blue dial and date indication at the 3 o’clock. Powered by the in-house self-winding caliber 5100, the movement is stamped with the Geneva seal as a mark of excellence. It beats at 28,800 vph with two mainspring barrels and a power reserve of 60 hours.
Offered in great condition, and accompanied by Vacheron Constantin warranty, additional straps and presentation box, the present watch is the perfect watch for everyday wear and is destined for the collections of discerning enthusiasts who appreciate Overseas' enduring excellence.

One of the most talked-about timepieces of the past decade, the Patek Philippe Nautilus ref. 5711 was first introduced in 2006. While the Nautilus lineage began in the 1970s with the iconic ref. 3700, it was the ref. 5711 that cemented its status as an icon, gaining global recognition and exponential demand.
With its classic 40mm stainless steel case and integrated bracelet, the ref. 5711 perpetuates the heritage of the original Gérald Genta design, paired with the popular grayish-blue horizontally ribbed dial. After being discontinued in 2021 and briefly succeeded by a final green dial edition and the talk of the town Tiffany & Co. iteration, the ref. 5711 has made way for the new ref. 5811/1G-001 in white gold with a slightly enlarged case and extendable clasp.
Fresh-to-market, this circa 2017 example is offered in excellent condition with barely any signs of wear. Complete with its full set of accessories, it represents a rare opportunity to acquire one of Patek Philippe’s most revered contemporary models.

The reference 5980 was introduced in 2006 as part of the 30th-anniversary celebration of the Nautilus collection. It represented a significant milestone for the line, as it became the first Nautilus to feature a chronograph function alongside the iconic time-only reference 5711.
Notably, it was upgraded from the conventional chronograph design by incorporating a flyback function, allowing the chronograph to be reset without stopping it first. The dial of the ref. 5980 retained the distinctive Nautilus design elements, including the ribbed texture and legible profile. The chronograph registers were ingeniously combined into a single “bull’s eye” counter, adding a unique touch to the watch’s aesthetic. The stainless steel versions of this reference were discontinued in 2014, further increasing its desirability and establishing it as one of the most sought-after Patek Philippe Nautilus models.
The present example, produced around circa 2010, features a highly sought-after blue-black dial and holds particular significance due to the inclusion of the Geneva Seal on the movement. It is likely one of the last batches of watches to bear the Geneva Seal as Patek Philippe introduced their own seal in 2009. Preserved in excellent overall condition, this further enhances the rarity and collectability of the timepiece, making it even more desirable among enthusiasts.

The Patek Philippe reference 5960 was introduced in 2006 as the first model that features the combination of the firm’s inaugural in-house selfwinding chronograph and the annual calendar complication. Originally launched as a platinum sports watch with a grey dial, the reference was later released in a few variants with pink and white gold. In 2014, the firm released a stainless steel variant offering the firm’s signature rice bead bracelet fitted with a warm white dial with strong black accents, giving the reference a refreshed contemporary appeal. The present reference 5690/1A-010 with black dial was unveiled in 2017, and it is among the most coveted models that was only produced for a year.
The irresistible dial design of the reference 5960 accentuates the sports chic look of the timepiece, the calendar windows are set against the upper rim of the dial between 10 to 2 o’clock, displaying day of the week, date and month, unifying the three traditionally separated calendar counters into one fan-shaped formation. The black discs for the calendar display are a pleasing touch that allows that the apertures to sink nicely into the ebony black base. Fusing form and function, the watch features a power reserve indicator above the firm’s signature and the beautifully designed chronograph mono-subdial counters, with day and night indication, on the bottom half of the dial.
The present example appears to be fresh-to-the-market. Presented in exceptional overall condition, and offered with its full set of original accessories by the original owner, the present lot is the perfect addition to the collection of any modern connoisseur.

The Royal Oak Chronograph reference 25860 was introduced by Audemars Piguet in 1997 to commemorate the 25th anniversary of the first Royal Oak. Paying homage to the original “Jumbo”, it maintains the original dimensions with a diameter of 39mm. With expertise in creating ultra-thin watches at that period, Audemars Piguet achieved a remarkable feat by incorporating one of the thinnest self-winding chronograph movements of its time, the calibre 2385, into this watch.
The present example features a highly desirable blue dial, which is arguably the most popular color among collectors. While earlier production models were equipped with a “petite tapisserie” pattern on the dial, the current example showcases a “grand tapisserie” pattern, providing a larger and more contemporary aesthetic. The folding clasp has also been upgraded to the signature “AP” logo, a detail that is highly sought-after by collectors. Notably, this clasp design is no longer used in the current Royal Oak models, adding to its desirability.
Furthermore, this particular reference gained significant popularity because it was created as a tribute to the renowned chess Grandmaster Garry Kasparov. Kasparov wore this watch during his professional games and would always take it off his wrist before making his final winning moves. As an Audemars Piguet brand ambassador, the watch has been nicknamed “Kasparov” by collectors and has become a favorite among the Royal Oak Chronograph lineage.
The present watch has been serviced by Harrods in April 2019.

Since its introduction in the early 1970s, the Royal Oak model has garnered widespread acclaim for its timeless design, range of complications, and innovative use of materials. Among them is the present reference 25730ST, a dual-time collection with a smaller 36mm diameter case compared to the original “Jumbo”. However, this timepiece showcases a striking and distinctive blue dial, which has become an icon in its own right.
The fascination with the sky and its colors led French painter Yves Klein to develop a vibrant shade of ultramarine blue, which he believed captured the essence of space. This color, known as “International Klein Blue (IKB)”, became a central theme in Klein’s paintings. When Audemars Piguet introduced a similar vibrant blue color in their watches, collectors quickly dubbed it “Yves Klein”. The present timepiece features the iconic petite tapisserie blue dial, complemented by a lacquered texture at the second time zone at 6 o’clock, a power reserve indicator at 9 o’clock, and a date display at 3 o’clock, creating a captivating contrast.
Offered in excellent overall condition, the current watch comes complete with its full set of accessories. It represents a highly sought-after neo-vintage timepiece that should not be overlooked by collectors and enthusiasts alike.

The Royal Oak collection introduced in 1972 has expanded over the years to include a wide range of complications, showcasing Audemars Piguet’s expertise in creating complex timepieces. Among these remarkable watches is the reference 25977, a rare and highly soughtafter model that combines two revered complications: the tourbillon and the chronograph.
The reference 25977 represents a remarkable feat of watchmaking, as it is uncommon to see a tourbillon and a chronograph integrated into a single watch movement. Each complication requires exceptional skill and mastery, making their combination even more impressive. This particular variant features a monochromatic black dial, designed to accentuate the captivating tourbillon carriage located at 6 o’clock. The watch is powered by the manual-wound caliber 2889, which beats at a frequency of 21,600 vibrations per hour. The intricate architecture of the movement is fully visible through the sapphire crystal display back, allowing admirers to appreciate the meticulous craftsmanship.
With a production period spanning approximately 10 years from 2003 to 2013, the reference 25977 is highly collectible due to its limited availability, produced in small numbers and reserved for Audemars Piguet’s VIP customers. Wearing this watch on the wrist is a true pleasure, with the mesmerizing tourbillon in motion, making this present example a grail-worthy timepiece that will captivate any collector.

It is needless to say that Journe created only very few limited editions with extremely little room on customisation over the years. The boutique editions that have sprinkled in the brand’s lineage are nothing short of legendary amongst passionate circle of collectors.
Hailing from the coveted and extremely well-received F. P. Journe Chronomètre Bleu series, the BYBLOS is an entire new breed of its own.
While it essentially features the same caliber and complication as the regular model, the BYBLOS is a limited edition of 99 pieces launched in 2014 to commemorate the firm’s 10th opening of their boutique in Beirut. This unique model was named after the city of Byblos, located on the Lebanese coast a few kilometres North of Beirut. Byblos was the cradle of Euro-Mediterranean civilisation, being the world’s oldest Phoenician port and one of the most important commercial and cultural platforms of the region.
Cased in the famed gun metal shade of Tantalum, the timepiece is sized at 39mm diameter. Beautifully Mediterranean blue, for the first time, F.P.Journe has used a cut-out hour circle that reveals the exceptional, beautiful, 18k rose-gold mechanical movement adorned with guilloché decoration. A notable detail in the F. P. Journe logo at 12 o’clock in which the «J» is inscribed in the Phoenician alphabet representing the letter «Yodh». Pronounced «J», it symbolizes the hand, thus emphasizing the importance of handcrafting in the F.P. Journe creations. Elegantly paired with an ivory coloured hands and Arabic numerals gracing over the skeletonized dial, it is an absolute delight to see the calibre 1304 in action.
The present example F.P. Journe Chronomètre Bleu BYBLOS from circa 2020 is numbered 71 from the series. Fresh-to-the-market and offered in “like-new” overall condition, it is further complete with its full set of accessories.

The Vagabondage III is the culmination of Mr. F. P. Journe’s restless spirit of innovation and dedication to horological excellence. Released in 2017 in an exclusive limited edition of 68 pieces in rose gold and 69 in platinum, it is the final instalment in the ground-breaking Vagabondage series first introduced in 1995.
True to form, Journe redesigned the movement entirely for the last iteration of the Vagabondage series. To power the digital jumping seconds display, which requires an immense amount of energy, he ingeniously incorporated his signature remontoir d’égalité mechanism to ensure a consistent amplitude in the balance wheel. Two discs visible through the smoked sapphire dial spin hypnotically at 6 o’clock, allowing the wearer to appreciate each leap of the seconds.
Framed in a traditional tortue shaped case, the Vagabondage III aesthetically modern thanks to its deceptively complex yet elegantly minimal pared-down dial.
The present example paired with a handsome blue strap is numbered 37 of the 69 pieces made in platinum, is in exceptional condition and is further accompanied by its original accessories and an additional black strap. For the Journe enthusiast looking to complete the trilogy or own a horological marvel, this timepiece will be a fine addition. Seldom does a watch so seamlessly fuse tradition and avant-garde in a harmonious vision of timekeeping as this, one of the most unusual and important wristwatches ever made.

Within the brand, the DB25 collection represents a more classical appeal and encompasses complications like the award-winning Starry Varius Chronomètre Tourbillon with deadbeat seconds and the practical GMT Starry Varius. In 2022, De Bethune introduced a significant evolution of its flagship DB25 Perpetual Calendar with the new DB25sQP. This version features a smaller case 40mm case compared to the 44mm previous iterations of the brand’s longstanding perpetual calendar, a more wearable and approachable size for the general public.
Reducing the diameter by 4mm may sound simple, but the true challenge lies within the movement. Not only did De Bethune need to fully utilize the available space, but the complications and finishing also had to align with its predecessor. Consequently, a new movement was developed specifically for this smaller-sized watch, resulting in a reduction of the caliber’s diameter from 35mm to 30mm.
The DB25sQP retains a similar dial aesthetic to the previous DB25QP, featuring 12 distinct sectors of hand-guilloché pattern that form the base for the center of the dial. The signature patented 3D moon phases, crafted with palladium and flame-blued steel, are a captivating sight at 12 o’clock. The day and month are displayed through apertures, whilst a subdial indicates the date, maintaining the perfect symmetry. Surrounding these elements is an outer ring with Roman hour markers and a discreet minute track at the outer edge. The combination of silver and blue colors provides a striking contrast, enhancing the modernized appearance of the watch.
This particular example is preserved in virtually “brand-new” condition and comes with all accompanying accessories. Notably it is part of a very limited production, with the brand planning to produce only 15 units per year.

The A. Lange & Söhne Zeitwerk shattered conventions and showcased the enduring craftsmanship that has defined the brand for centuries. Inspired by the clock in Dresden’s Semper Opera House, the watch features a unique “sky bridge” time display. It introduced symmetrical jumping hour and minute numerals, a groundbreaking innovation at the time.
Among the limited edition timepieces from A. Lange & Söhne, the Lumen series stands out as a favorite among brand lovers and enthusiasts. What sets this series apart is the special tinted dial that allows UV light to pass through, charging the luminous material beneath it. This results in fully luminous discs that transform the appearance of the timepiece at night. The Lumen series was first introduced in 2010 with the Zeitwerk model and received a facelift version in 2021. In the case of the Lumen Zeitwerk, A. Lange & Söhne opted for their most exclusive material, honey gold. This patented in-house developed alloy emits a distinctive and unique warm golden hue. Apart from its exotic appearance, honey gold is a durable and more scratch-resistant compared to conventional yellow gold due to its increased hardness. Another notable feature of the new Lumen is the addition of a pusher on the side of the case, which was absent in previous time-only Zeitwerk models. This pusher allows for separate adjustment of the hour indication, simplifying the process of setting the time.
When A. Lange & Söhne unveiled the Zeitwerk collection at SIHH in 2009, it marked a new era for the brand. With its highly legible layout and sought-after lumen dial, the honey gold version of the Zeitwerk offers an impressive and game-changing design that is sure to capture the attention of Lange aficionados. Only limited to 200 pieces, the current numbered “133” is in “like-new” condition, the original factory stickers are still partially adhered to the case and we are thrilled to present this first Zeitwerk “Lumen” to be sold in auction.

An important milestone for A. Lange & Söhne, the year of 1994 was a game-changing revival era of the brand. The first collection, which was comprised of four watches, was initially presented in October of that year and immediately rose to the forefront of haute horology. One of these four watches was the timeless and now iconic Lange 1. First introduced 30 years ago, its unorthodox off-centre golden ratio dial layout, its revolutionary design, and its great technical quality made it an instant icon.
The reference 101.031 was introduced in 1998 as part of an expansion of the Lange 1 repertoire, and made available in the striking combination of 18K pink gold with black dial. Early pink gold Lange 1 cases are fully polished, rather than polished sides and bezel with brushed finishing to the caseback. To further set this example apart, it bears a sought-after early “MIG” dial, with the earliest font for the “Made in Germany” designation. “DOPPELFEDERHAUS” features a typeface that is kerned with a wider spacing. The subdials are very subtly guillochéd, adding a touch of contrast against the inky blackness of the dial. Powering the Lange 1 is the early calibre L901.0 that was the first iteration movement built by A. Lange & Söhne.
Highly attractive and well-preserved by the original owner, the present timepiece is further accompanied by its original accessories.
Please note that the proceeds of the sale of the present watch will be given by the Consignor to various charities.

Each year at Watches & Wonders, Cartier reveals a historic model to be added to the Privée collectors’ collection. The star of the show joining the family this year in 2023, is a long waited one, the Cartier Tank Normale, the original Tank.
Taking inspiration from the Renault FT-17 tanks from WWI with obvious design cues, the Cartier Tank made in platinum debuted in 1917 with the first piece offer to General John Pershing. The new model was launched with a total of six limited edition variants in yellow gold and platinum.
Framed with satin-brushed finished brancards and high polished chamfers to create a clean and bold aesthetic, a bevelled sapphire crystal that resembles ones on the vintage original sits atop of a matching satin-brushed dial. Beautifully proportioned, the dial features strong Cartier DNA with Roman numerals and a chemin de fer track. An unexpected easter egg can be found on the VII numeral, commonly hidden as the secret signature of the Parisian House, the dial for the Tank Normale now features “1917”.
Produced in a limited edition of only 200 pieces and a sensation that commanded collectors to waitlist this piece for its beauty, the timepiece is paired with a classic crocodile strap and platinum Cartier buckle, on the wrist, it sits beautifully with impeccable style. Presented in absolutely unworn condition and numbered 58, this is a “brand-new” example with its original stickers intact on the caseback. Here’s a spectacular chance to skip the waiting list to acquire one of the most handsome release by Cartier.

The Tank Cintrée (meaning “curved Tank” in French) was introduced in 1921 as a revolutionary design with its special curved and elongated case shape. Taking a modern twist to the classic Cartier Tank design, the watch is a celebrated marriage of classic aesthetics and wearability. It is simple yet visually stunning, and is constructed in a beautiful form which allows it to sit comfortably on the wearer’s wrist.
Inside the exquisite curved case, the dial emanates a superb elegance with a subtle grey railway minute track at the centre of the delicate grey dial. Setting against the black sword-shaped hands, it sits in perfect harmony inside the shimming platinum case. The beaded winding crown is further set with a ruby cabochon, a beloved historical feature often found on platinum cases for Cartier’s anniversary models, adding a delightful touch of red to the minimalistic design. There are two additional configurations of the present reference, including pink gold case with black dial and yellow gold case with golden dial, but the present combination of platinum case and grey dial is arguably the most adored and attractive version of all.
The watch is powered by the oval-shaped manual calibre 8971MC, based on the Jaeger-LeCoultre calibre 846, which is unique for its small size and versatility. It has no issue fitting the thin case since it measures only 6.95mm and yet boasting a power reserve of 38 hours.
Numbered 062 in a limited run of only 100 pieces, this present example is offered with its full set of accessories and is preserved in excellent condition. The rare opportunity to add this superbly elegant timepiece to a fine watch collection is not to be missed.

Audemars Piguet has been a leader in the manufacture of complications since 1881, and the brand has continued to impress us with their audacious creations underpinned by traditional watchmaking at its finest. Fusing the two great icons of Audemars Piguet’s heritage, the Royal Oak model and the ultra-thin automatic perpetual calendar complication, the present Royal Oak Quantième Perpétuel epitomizes the refined aesthetics, technical complexity and perfect ergonomics that serve as the essence of the Manufacture’s long history of watchmaking.
In recent years, Audemars Piguet has redefined its perpetual calendar complication by introducing various unique interpretations. In celebration of the 20th anniversary of the renowned Indonesia retailer, ‘The Time Place’ in 2019, the present timepiece was crafted in a limited edition of only 20 pieces in platinum. The movement is adorned with a special skeletonized 22K pink gold rotor unique to this edition which is pierced and engraved ’20 Years The Time Place’ visible through the transparent case back.
The classic salmon dial has always been highly regarded by connoisseurs, and it has been employed on wristwatches since the early 19th century, with some of the most important timepieces in the history of watchmaking revered for their sumptuous salmon dial.
The magnificent salmon dial on the present timepiece is extremely wellexecuted. Graced with the delicate “Grande Tapisserie” pattern, the dial glimmers in shades of alluring salmon under different lighting. The dial is further coupled with silver inner bezel, with matching sub-dial rings, white gold applied hour-markers and Royal Oak hands with luminescent coating, culminating an irresistible dial with great depth and texture. Along with the traditional calendar functions, the watch is presented with weekly indication and a beautiful astronomical moon phase display, depicted by a photorealistic moon on an iridescent blue background.
The timepiece is further powered by the in-house automatic calibre 5134, introduced in 2015. The movement is built upon the renowned original caliber 2120 launched by Audemars Piguet in 1967, which is still the thinnest full-rotor automatic winding movement in the world. It beats at a steady frequency of 19,800 vph, and boasts a power reserve of 40 hours, with a water resistance of 20 meters.
When this celebrated match of salmon dial and platinum case finds its expression on a Royal Oak, the wearer is struck by the aesthetic power of the icy tonality of platinum, and the weight of material conveys on a physical level the importance of this timepiece. Offered in “wellpreserved” condition, the present example is a phenomenal timepiece not to be missed by our esteemed collectors.

The GMT-Master II collection stands as an iconic symbol of Rolex, instantly recognizable and beloved by many. Its origins trace back to the 1950s, a period marked by the rise of commercial air travel, when a wristwatch was designed specifically for commercial pilots to conveniently track time across different time zones. Throughout its history, the collection has seen various case and bezel materials, and the current iteration boasts one of the most appealing combinations.
The present example showcases a luxurious and visually striking yellow gold case, complemented by a sleek black glossy dial. The gold printing on the dial pays homage to the gilt dials that were produced in the early days of the collection, adding a touch of vintage charm.
The watch further houses the caliber 3185, which was the first Rolex movement to feature an independently adjustable 24-hour hand. The present timepiece is notably exceptionally well-preserved, and it represents the perfect transition from the use of tritium lumes to Super-LumiNova. The advantage of Super-LumiNova is its resistance to discoloration or aging over time, ensuring that the luminescent markers will maintain their white appearance for years to come.

The Rolex Day-Date is a flagship watch that exudes flair, creativity, and charisma. Rolex has taken the Day-Date to new heights by incorporating unique dial materials such as bloodstone, coral, and onyx, as seen in the present example, which showcases a captivating deep black hue. The use of these precious stones in watch dials requires meticulous research and development, as they are cut very thinly and are very fragile. In fact, a majority of these dials crack during production before they even reach the general public.
The present Day-Date features a very rare “bark” finished bezel, which mimics the texture of wood, creating a visually striking contrast with the yellow gold case. To complement the bezel, the President bracelet also includes center links with a bark finish, enhancing its overall appeal. With a diameter of 36mm, the reference 18248 Day-Date sits comfortably on the wrist, and the addition of the “bark” accents gives the timepiece a charming and distinctive character. It is equipped with the updated caliber 3155, which boasts a double quickset function, allowing for rapid adjustments of both the day and date.
Kept in excellent condition, the case of this watch exhibits strong proportions and crisp hallmarks on the caseback, underscoring its rarity and overall quality. It is a fine and unique timepiece that should not be overlooked, making it an exceptional addition to any collection.

Introduced in 1978, the reference 18038 shares a striking resemblance to its predecessor, the reference 1803, while incorporating several noteworthy technical advancements. Notable improvements include an increased water resistance, the introduction of a sapphire crystal –an inaugural feature for the Day-Date collection – and the implementation of the new calibre 3055 movement. This upgraded movement operates at a higher frequency of 28,800 vibrations per hour and introduces the convenient quickset mechanism for the date function.
Available in a variety of dial options, including Stella dials, hard stone dials, and metal dials with various designs, the reference 18038 also showcased the creative prowess of Rolex by featuring wooden dials, as seen in the present example. The incorporation of organic wooden dials brings a refreshing aesthetic to the wristwatch, juxtaposing the technical nature of the timepiece with the natural allure of the wood’s unique grain patterns. Each wooden dial is inherently one-of-a-kind, ensuring that no two dials will ever possess the exact same appearance.
The current model boasts a stunning ‘golden walnut’ wood dial, and due to the natural characteristics of wood, each dial possesses its own distinct identity, making it truly unique in its visual presentation.

With the exception of prototype models, the Day-Date has only been crafted in precious metals, further emphasizing its prestigious status.

The present ref. 18238 showcases an incredibly exotic and eyecatching bloodstone dial. The dial is characterized by its forest green hue and subtle copper flecks, creating a striking contrast against the warm gold case. The combination of the rare Roman numerals and the distinctive fluted bezel yields a powerful aesthetic result.
This example is exceptionally well-preserved, exhibiting sharp finishes to the edge of the lugs and crisp hallmarks. Bearing an “A” serial, this beauty from 1999 is accompanied by its full set accessories and original punched guarantee.

With its 38.5mm stainless steel case, it has a decidedly modern appearance and size, bringing the Vacheron Constantin model into the modern era. Boasting similar DNA such as pump pushers and blue chronograph hand, the modern iteration bears larger chronograph registers compared to its original.
The true star of the show, is the movement within. Exhibited through the sapphire caseback is the beautifully crafted calibre 1142. Engineered based on the Lemania caliber 2310 with a column wheelcontrolled, lateral clutch chronograph calibre equipped with a large balance, the movement features a Breguet overcoil balance spring. Together with a total of 164 components beating at 3 Hz, the timepiece provides a power reserve of 48 hours and is stamped with the approval of the prestigious Geneva seal.
On the wrist, the Cornes de Vache wears extremely well, furthermore, the present example is paired with a black crocodile strap with racing red stitching, giving it an extra sporty look for the classic chronograph. Offered in excellent overall condition and accompanied by its full set of accessories, this is the perfect watch to wear for a Sunday morning drive.

Drawing inspiration from the iconic Vacheron Constantin reference 4240 dating back from the 1940s, the present Historiques Triple Calendrier 1942 is a charming revival of the classic triple calendar wristwatches.
Faithful to the original, the present reference 3110V/000-B425 has retained the distinctive round triple gadroon case and tear drop lugs, and it features an irresistible two-tone cream dial. The centre of the dial is sunray finished and surrounded by an outer date ring punctuated with transferred Arabic numerals with retro typography in an attractive shade of burgundy (also available in dark blue). The calendar indications are in a matching burgundy color, as well as the tip of hand indicating the date.
While the original reference 4240 was produced in yellow gold, pink gold or steel and measuring a case size of 35mm, the present re-edition is only encased in a 40mm steel case.
The timepiece is further powered by the calibre 4400 QC developed entirely and manufactured by Vacheron Constantin, and it boasts a power reserve of 65 hours and a frequency of 28,800 vibrations per hour.
Awarded the Revival Watch Prize at the 2017 GPHG, the present example is a well-executed homage paid towards one of the brands most iconic calendar wristwatches in one of the toughest times for the watch industry after the Great Depression in the late 1930s. Preserved in excellent condition, and accompanied by its set of accessories, the present example is an excellent timepiece that should not missed by the discerning connoisseur.

A state of the art perpetual calendar complication coupled with meticulous skills of an artisan, the Vacheron Constantin Traditionnelle ref. 43172 is the synthesis that delights connoisseurs. The model was available in 18K pink gold and platinum and was sized at 39mm diameter. Revealing the soul of the movement based on the classic geometry of the Traditionnelle, master engravers and watchmakers joint forces to transform this timepiece into a ballet of pierced bridges, gears and rotor. In theory, the symmetrical perpetual calendar layout could be distracted by the abundant of engravings, but thankful to the mastermind at Vacheron Constantin, legibility is nothing to be sacrificed. To achieve this, all indications are printed on a white ring on top of a sapphire disc, preserving its transparent qualities.
The celebrated architecture of the calibre 1120 can be fully admired all around. Powered by the decorated skeletonized Maltese cross rotor, the movement is completely engraved with motifs inspired by the trellis pattern of the Eiffel Tower, the movement is further stamped with the Geneva hallmark of excellence.
Well-preserved with a hint of understated extravagance, the present timepiece is perfect for the discerning collector who appreciates artisanal movements.

Cartier sustains their legacy of producing the most refined and opulent jewelry timepieces, as exemplified by this exquisite pocket watch encased in lapis lazuli with a yellow gold bow. Its case number and “Cartier Paris” engraving is crisp, and French hallmark indicated by an eagle head found on the bow remains deep. Its dual chapter ring continues a design first introduced in the 1920s that epitomized Cartier’s avant-garde spirit. The double chapter ring made its debut in Cartier’s collection circa 1911, around the time Edmond Jaeger began supplying the maison with pioneering ultra-thin movements like the famous 1.38mm cal. 145. This allowed for new dimensions of elegant restraint.
Yet even with newly slender proportions, Cartier indulged in beautiful intricacy as seen in the guilloché dial of this example. The gorgeous white enamel outer chapter ring contains alternating Roman numerals and delicate floral motifs in gold, while the inner ring with Arabic numerals add complexity. The lapis lazuli case furthers the richness –its vibrant blue hue contrasting sublimely with the pristine gold dial. At once opulent yet refined, this rare dual chapter ring pocket watch crystallizes Cartier’s flair for blending luxury craftsmanship with timeless style. The lapis lazuli case is incredibly well-preserved, which is hard to come by. Both a jeweled objet d’art and feat of precision horology, it remains a coveted symbol of the era.
Phillips is honoured to offer the present example for the first time in our auction room.

The Vacheron Constantin Audubon “Birds of America” is a delightful watch that invites us to step back, take a deep breath and appreciate crafts that require time and patience.
The cloisonné enamel dial is inspired by the works of 19th Century American ornithologist, naturalist and painter John J. Audubon and his book Birds of America. He was notable for his expansive studies to document all types of American birds and for his detailed illustrations that depicted the birds in their natural habitats. His major work, a colorplate book entitled Birds of America (1827–1839), is considered one of the finest ornithological works ever completed. Audubon identified 25 new species. A series launched in 1996, Vacheron Constantin’s created 10 watches depicting ten different birds paying tribute to the artist.
Proudly dominating the canvas of this timepiece is the incredibly intelligent ebony black Raven. Vividly sculpted by gold wires, the intricate work from the enameler brought this Raven to life as it is about to take flight off a scenery of bright greens and golden berries. Elegantly dictating time with equally sophisticated round golden markers, the dial boast an attractive rich cream hue that perfectly complements its yellow gold case.
Hidden underneath a hinged caseback revealed by the push of a button is a beautifully finished cal.1120/2 movement that bears the prestigious honour of a Geneva seal. The skeletonized rotor takes shape of the Maltese Cross and is further engraved with gorgeous details. Complete with its certificate and accessories, it’s the condition of the present timepiece that is exquisite. Covered in its original blued factory stickers, this is an exceptional “new-old-stock” example from its series. An absolute delight for collectors, here is a superb chance to add this artwork to your ever growing collection.

True mastery craftmanship unfolds as the wearer swivels this Grand Reverso to its reverse. As complex as it is meticulous, a romantic seascape of three elegantly dressed silhouettes gaze outwards to the horizon as the moon rises to the east above a band of violet clouds, this is one of the renowned masterpieces from the most prominent Romanticism German artist Caspar David Friedrich, Mondaufgang am Meer “Moonrise by the Sea.”
Extremely demanding resulting highly limited production, the present Grand Reverso is one of five pieces ever created of such painting. Numbered 5 from the edition, this is the final piece to be completed in-house by master enameller atelier led by the talented Miklos Merczel with a heritage in Vallee de Joux since 1996.
The main dial is in the most discreet look, a white grand feu enamel canvas that displays its function in the most legible manner. Elegantly placed, a power reserve of a total of 8 days anchors the top left corner across the blue chemin de fer, followed by the date and small seconds that can be read at ease.
Exceptionally preserved and complete with its certificate and accessories, the present yellow gold timepiece is truly a hidden treasure amongst the world of Reversos. Expressing the grandeur of both the painter and master enameller, this is easily one of the most collectible reverso for those who has a passion for horology and art.

The Cartier Crash, a timepiece shrouded in mystery and intrigue, first graced the horological world in 1967. To celebrate this iconic model and its enduring legacy, Cartier released a limited edition series in the 1990s, breathing new life into the Crash and captivating a new generation of collectors. Among these modern iterations, examples adorned with the luxurious allure of pink diamonds, such as the present watch, stand as one of the most exclusive and sought-after. The rarity of these pink diamond-set Crash is unparalleled, making them the crown jewels of the contemporary Crash collection.
The presence of pink diamonds elevates the already-iconic Crash design to new heights of opulence and desirability. The juxtaposition of the warm, blush-hued gems against the fluid, asymmetrical lines of the pink gold case create a visual symphony that is at once avantgarde and eternally elegant. The dial features a softened pink hued set of Roman numerals that sits gracefully amongst the star studded pink bezel, furthermore the secret signature at seven and “MADE IN FRANCE” elevates this piece with sophistication.
This harmonious blend of the surreal and the luxurious serves as a testament to Cartier’s unrivaled ability to push the boundaries of horological design while remaining true to its commitment to exceptional craftsmanship and materials.
Preserved in barely worn condition and fitted with an eye-catching pink crocodile strap, the present Crash will surely delight on the wrist and remain an icon in one’s collection of prized timepieces.

Inspired from a wristwatch from the early 1930s, The Pasha of Marrakesh, Thami El Glaoui ordered a specific timepiece from Louis Cartier. Cased in yellow gold, the watch presented was one that could withstand the active lifestyle of Pasha that was water-resistant to a certain level, a unique feature at the time. To accomplish that, the watch was equipped with a larger case diameter, a crown cover and a metal grid to protect the dial.
The birth of the Pasha was in 1985 during the quartz crisis released by Alain Dominique Perrin, Cartier’s CEO at the time. Designed by famed designer, Gerald Genta, the Pasha embodied a masculine appeal that remained in line with Cartier’s iconic elegance.
The present Cartier Pasha is easily one of most playful iterations of the model from the 2000s. Produced in a cloisonée enamel limited series in white gold, the vivid and playful expression of the Congo African grey parrot steals the spotlight with its beautiful shades of grey. Each layer of its feathers are carefully defined by the master enameller, each curve of the shimmering gold wire forms the beautiful and intelligent creature. Anchored by four baguette diamond-set indexes with claw setting that resembles the 4 toes of the parrot’s feet, the amusing bird is surrounded in the tropical of green and yellow. Powered by the calibre 311B decorated with the iconic Collection Privée pattern, the present timepiece is an exquisite choice for the flamboyant and quick-witted collector.

As Rolex’s sister company, Tudor is generally known for a more conservative approach to watch designs. However in recent years, they have demonstrated a willingness to explore innovative ideas, particularly in their choice of case materials.
One notable example is the use of 925 silver, which is a very rare occurrence in watchmaking. Silver is not commonly seen in watch cases due to its relatively soft nature and susceptibility to tarnishing, it is also more expensive than steel but not as precious as white gold or platinum. However, Tudor has embraced the spirit of “Born to Dare” and introduced a watch with a silver case, along with a matching taupe grey dial and bezel. The warmer color tone creates a distinct presence on the wrist.
This particular reference also features a sapphire display case back, a rarity in Tudor’s dive watches which allows for an unobstructed view of the in-house calibre MT5400 movement. Offered in a very attractive condition, the surface has developed a layer of tarnish throughout, adding a unique character to the watch. An interesting twist on a classic dive watch, this timepiece is a perfect choice for everyday wear with a touch of playfulness.

The Omega Moonshine Gold is a proprietary 18k yellow gold alloy, developed to commemorate the 50th anniversary of the moon landing. Debuted in 2019 on the Speedmaster Apollo 11 50th Anniversary, it is a mixture of gold, silver, copper, and palladium which gives off a unique lighter shade of gold that is more durable. To the delight of the Speedy fans, Omega released the Speedmaster Moonwatch Moonshine Gold in early 2022 with two dial variants, one with green dial and green bezel, and the other with a “panda” dial.
The present moonwatch in Moonshine Gold boasts a gold panda dial with black subdials, black indexes, and black ceramic bezel, matching seamlessly with the integrated black rubber strap with lunar surface pattern on the underside which fits nicely into the Moonshine Gold foldover clasp, allowing the watch to sit very comfortably on the wrist. Powered by the caliber 3861 introduced in 2019, that is based on the Lemania caliber 1861, the movement of the watch boasts a number of technical upgrades. As the co-axial escapement is made of antimagnetic alloys, the caliber 3861 is equipped with high magnetism resistance, and is resistant to magnetic fields reaching 15,000 gauss. With a power reserve of 50 hours, the manual caliber 3861 is further certified by METAS, the Swiss Federal Institute of Metrology, making it a Master Chronometer.

In the 1980s, Rolex began introducing gem-set variations of their sports watches to cater to their more adventurous clientele. Among the earliest gem-set sports watches were the manual wound Daytona references 6269 and 6270. These models sparked a new trend for gem-set timepieces, and Rolex continued to incorporate gemstones into their prestigious watch lines, experimenting with various combinations of gemstones, cuts, settings, and designs over the years. These gem-set Rolex watches are often produced in very limited quantities and with meticulous attention to quality and craftsmanship. Examples may include large baguette-cut bezels, pavé diamond dials, and the use of emeralds, rubies, or colored sapphires. These off-catalogue pieces are highly sought after by collectors due to their exclusivity and exceptional execution.
At first glance, the dial of the present example is strikingly attractive, reminiscent of a tiger gazing at you. Rolex has cleverly incorporated their design elements to create a tiger face, with the two chronograph registers representing the “eyes” of the tiger. The dial features a symmetrical tiger pattern formed by a combination of champagne color and black lacquer. The champagne pattern is further adorned with pavéset diamonds throughout, a luxurious touch that exemplifies Rolex’s commitment to exclusivity. In place of the usual Cerachrom ceramic bezel found in their Oysterflex models, this watch features 34 trapezecut diamonds, all invisibly set and closely stacked next to each other. The invisible setting technique is considered one of the most challenging in watchmaking, requiring utmost precision of the slots and cuts.
Today, rare and special gem-set Daytona models, including the present example, are highly sought after in the market. Preserved in “like-new” overall condition, this watch is accompanied with its original guarantee and presentation box. Acquiring such a timepiece presents a unique opportunity to own a truly special and exclusive timepiece that makes a bold statement on the wrist.

The Rolex Daytona family is beloved for its diverse use of new materials and dial colours since the launch of the firm’s very first Daytona model with their own in-house movement in 2000. In 2016, Rolex added two new models, one in yellow gold with a green dial and the other in white gold with a blue dial, that were met with great enthusiasm from collectors.
The stealth yet luxurious white gold case and blue dial combination is an iconic design that has always captured the hearts of watch enthusiasts, making it a highly sought-after model. Offered in “likenew” condition, the present Rolex Daytona reference 116509 with an attractive blue dial from circa 2020 is presented with its complete set of original accessories, and it is a great chance for collectors to acquire this coveted discontinued model.

This remarkable timepiece epitomizes the best of watchmaking and gem-setting. Encased in platinum, it flaunts 5.3 carats of ruby stones on the bezel, lugs, and clasp. Truly a gem among Patek Philippe’s lineage of complications, the ref. 5271/12P-001 debuted in 2014 as part of a rare series featuring emerald, sapphire, diamond, and ruby adornment.
It was the manufacture’s first perpetual calendar chronograph to tout an in-house cal. 29-535 PS Q stamped with the Patek Philippe seal. The black lacquer dial, constructed in twelve meticulous layers, became an icon of the reference. Devoid of the “double chin” at 6 o’clock found on the earlier ref. 5270, the ref. 5271 dial dazzles with applied baguette-cut rubies.
The pigeon blood red rubies offer vivid contrast against the rich black backdrop. This ruby example ranks among the most covetable and dynamic of the gem-set ref. 5271. The vibrant flair complements the watch’s blend of technical prowess and aesthetic mastery.
Presented in single-sealed condition, this incredibly rare ref. 5271/12P001 exemplifies Patek Philippe’s superior artistry. It merges cuttingedge watchmaking with dazzling jewels and a dial of distinction. For the collector, it is the perfect marriage of innovation, beauty, and exclusivity.

The Ref 5930, introduced in 2016, incorporated the famous world time complication along with a sophisticated flyback chronograph, marking a historic first for Patek Philippe’s watchmaking. This timepiece not only boasts an attractive design, but it also fulfills all the requirements for an elegant dress watch suitable for frequent travelers.
During its debut at Baselworld 2016, the reference featured a striking blue dial and held the distinction of being the thinnest world time chronograph movement ever produced by Patek Philippe. The redesign of the world time dial included the addition of a fifth-of-asecond division scale between the city and 24-hour rings. Additionally, the 30-minute counter was placed at 6 o’clock, enhancing both the legibility and overall balance of the dial.
With the growing popularity of the Ref 5930, Patek Philippe decided to release another eye-catching variant at the Singapore Grand Exhibition in 2019. Produced in a limited edition of 300 pieces, the current watch features a vibrant red dial reminiscent of Singapore’s national flag while the smoky red guilloché added an extra layer of depth to the dial’s aesthetics. Furthermore, the city between Bangkok and Tokyo was changed to Singapore and the caseback was written “Patek Philippe Singapore 2019” to align with the exhibition’s theme.
Combining rarity and exceptional aesthetics, the current reference is highly sought-after and rarely available in the market. It is now making its debut in the auction market and is considered one of the most collectible world time chronographs available, especially when accompanied by its full set of accessories.

In 1976, the Nautilus stunned the watch world as Patek Philippe’s first luxury sports watch, masterfully designed by the legendary Gérald Genta. Taking inspiration from ocean liner portholes, Genta fittingly named it after the submarine in Jules Verne’s classic tale. With an integrated bracelet and ultra-thin automatic movement, its silhouette wears comfortably on the wrist.
Initially conceived as an understated steel leisure watch, the Nautilus was not intended for precious metals or diamonds. However, the early 1980s brought scarce gold editions with diamond bezels, pushing boundaries with lavish embellishments. Among the rarest and most coveted is ref. 3700/3, as seen here. According to our research, only 8 examples are known in this precious metal and gemstone combination, making this a grail for collectors.
With its well-preserved sturdy case, sharp bevels, and integrated Gay Frères bracelet, the present ref. 3700/3 in yellow gold exemplifies the pinnacle of luxury sports elegance. It provides a portal into the origins of Patek Philippe’s now-legendary Nautilus line for scholars and collectors of exceptional vintage watches alike.

First launched in 1985, reference 3940 replaced the existing perpetual calendar wristwatch, the reference 3450. Featuring a slender, circularshaped case, the watch presented a decidedly more “modern” and less angular appearance than its predecessor. At the time of manufacture, it was amongst one of Patek Philippe’s longest running references ever produced, ceasing production in approximately 2007. The reference was cased predominantly in yellow gold, as well as pink gold, white gold, and platinum.
The reference 3940 was executed in three different series (and a very small “pre-series”):
– Pre-series: 25 numbered Beyer pieces with gilt dial
– First series: without second case back, sunken sub dials, 24-hour counter two-tone
– Second series: with second back (all but platinum), sloped sub dials, 24-hour counter two-tone
– Third series: with second back (all but platinum), sloped sub dials, cross divider on leap year, 24-hour counter (The present example)
The present watch falls within the serial number range for the third series. Preserved in excellent condition with crisp hallmarks and a beautiful dial with a warm patina on the 24-hour subdial, the timepiece is further complete with its solid white gold caseback, setting pin and Certificate of Origin. One of the most collectible perpetual calendar in recent times, the 3940 in white gold will surely please any collector who enjoys the complication of a perpetual calendar yet with the convenience of a self-winding movement.

Since introducing their first serially produced pure chronograph wristwatch via the ref. 130 in the 1930s, Patek Philippe has continued to create some of the most prized, valuable and impressive chronograph wristwatches throughout the decades. The introduction of the ref. 5070 in 1998 made headlines as it was the first pure chronograph released by the firm since the legendary ref. 1463. Initially released in yellow gold, it was made available in white gold pink gold and in 2008 a platinum version was released with a short production spanning until 2010 until it was replaced by the ref. 5170.
Taking its inspiration from the rare and desirable unique ref. 2512 featuring a 48mm diameter stepped case with applied Arabic numerals, the ref. 5070 is a modern-day homage to the elusive reference. At the time, the reference was one of the largest ever wristwatch produced by the firm. Extremely pure and exuding a classic chronograph dial configuration with two registers that are perfectly centered and aligned with the crown, the perfect proportion of the ref. 5070 is simply jaw dropping. Powered by the Lemania-based cal. CH 27-70, it was the last reference to utilize an outsourced movement making the reference a rare occasion that the world would probably never witness again. Throughout its course of production, it is estimated that 1,000 examples of the reference were encased each in yellow gold, white gold and pink gold, with only 500 examples encased in platinum.
Arguably one of the most attractive iteration produced in its early stage, the present 5070P-001 example is from 2008 and is preserved in excellent condition.

The 5056P was one of the first annual calendar wristwatches to feature moon phases. It is perfectly sized in a 37mm diameter platinum case and is adorned with a charming slate grey dial, which is the first grey dial for Patek Philippe according to Thierry Stern. The luminous Roman numeral hour markers and broad leaf shaped hands complement flawlessly with the brushed grey surface, and the dial layout is very balanced with the 48-hour power reserve indicator at 12 o’clock and the moon phases aperture at 6.
Introduced in 1998, the reference 5056P remained in production until 2006 and it was manufactured only in platinum, in two series. First series examples featured caliber 315/199 and second series examples from 2004 onwards featured a modified caliber 315/299. The present 5056P from circa 2002 is an exemplary example from the first series. Preserved in exceptional overall condition, the present example is offered with full set of accessories. To the best of our knowledge, it is estimated that only 1,500 examples of the 5056P were ever produced throughout its production span and less than 80 pieces have appeared publicly in auction, rendering this a rare opportunity to acquire this very special wristwatch for the discerning collectors.

The Gondolo Calendario ref. 5135 was introduced by Patek Philippe in 2004, pays homage to the elegance of the Art Deco era. This tonneau-shaped design with its refined modern proportions was initially released in white and yellow gold, followed by a version in pink gold. The final iteration, like the present example, was crafted in platinum and introduced in 2006.
This modern interpretation of the Gondolo Calendario is equipped with the caliber 324, which incorporates their patented annual calendar function. The practical annual calendar automatically advances the month, day, and date, requiring manual correction only once a year on the 1st of March. The ref. 5135P, in particular, is the most luxurious variant of this reference. Its platinum case is accompanied by two delicate details on the slate grey sunburst dial that set it apart from regular iterations. The 3 and 9 o’clock markers are adorned with diamonds, lending a subtle elegance that complements the cool hue of the dial.
The ref. 5135 was produced until 2011 and is no longer featured in the current Patek Philippe catalogue. The present example, fresh-to-themarket and offered in attractive condition, comes with its Certificate of Origin and presentation box.

World time watches were invented, as is the case with most innovations, out of necessity. With the advent of the industrial age came global trade and world travel and, as a direct result, there was a need for timekeeping devices capable of tracking time in multiple time zones. A successor from the modern iteration of the ref. 5130, the ref 5230 debuted in 2016 in the Patek Philippe catalogue first in pink and white gold fitted with a beautifully crafted guilloché dial and a graduated 24-hour ring with a day and night indication encircled by a rotating disc 24 cities.
In 2022, Patek Philippe introduced three new world time wristwatches at Watches & Wonders: ref. 5231G-001 with Cloisnée enamel dial featuring Australia, ref. 7130R-014 with green dial and diamond-set bezel, and last but not least, the ref. 5230P-001, the platinum world time with a new blue on blue look. Sized at a perfect 38.5mm diameter platinum case, the azure blue dial is aesthetically striking. Highly sought after, Patek Philippe just discontinued the ref. 5230P-001 this year, giving this reference a short production period. The first example to be auctioned at Phillips and fresh-to-the-market, the present ref. 5230P is in “like-new” condition and accompanied by its original Certificate of Origin and accessories. Time to strap on this handsome timepiece and hop on the plane for your next trip.

In 1984, Audemars Piguet merged two of their most iconic creations together, the perpetual calendar and the Royal Oak. Powered by the world’s thinnest legendary cal. 2120/2800 with a Jaeger-LeCoultre base, the Royal Oak Perpetual Calendar was born and was a total revelation contributing to the overcoming of the quartz crisis. Early examples of the model featured a dial with the absence of a leap year indication manufactured from 1984 to 1993, and later models produced from 1995 onwards were featured with a leap year indicator.
The reference 25820 powered by the cal. 2120/2802 with a leap year indication made its appearance in 1996 until 2013 with an approximate production number of 628 pieces in stainless steel. Offered in a range of precious metal, the present example in stainless steel with a white grande tappiserie dial is a combination to please most. With clean aesthetics and strong legibility, the subtle contrast of the steel case against the white hue of the dial is second to none. The movement of the exceptional caliber is in full display from the sapphire caseback, hand-engraved with refined beauty, the rotor of the famous ultra-thin movement can be admired by the wearer.
A perfect wristwatch for casual or formal wear, the versatility of the 39mm diameter case is impressive with a slim profile. Extremely well-preserved boasting razor sharp edges, the present timepiece is presented with its original warranty and winding box. The most covet sports watch, an icon of our times, this discontinued ref. 25820 is certainly a must have in the collection of fine timepieces.

PATEK PHILIPPE
A possibly unique and historically important yellow gold minute repeating perpetual calendar double-split chronograph open-faced keyless pocket watch with “modern” style case, leap year indicator, applied Arabic numerals, French calendar, moon phases and presentation box
REFERENCE 767
A trip to the Patek Philippe Museum in Geneva, a temple to one of the world’s most important and prestigious horological collection will surely take your breath away with the splendor of the firm’s technical prowess and craftsmanship, especially the immeasurable collection of pocket watches. From embellished pieces with enamels and engravings, lavish ornamented works of art, to automatons, these creations of horological complications have always held great fascination and punctuate the history of Patek Philippe.
Any addition to the basic indications – hours, minutes, and seconds –is considered a complication. These intricate functions may require one or more additional hands to indicate other time zones or the astrological events that mark time divisions: day, date, month, leap year, and lunar cycle. They may indicate time by repeating mechanisms sounding the precise measurement of small intervals of time. They may also measure time with accuracy.
Patek Philippe’s first ever horological complication pocket watch with not one, not two, but three complications was made in the late 19th century. One of such is the Triple Complication and part of the Patek Philippe Museum collection is No. 47’721, the hunter case pink gold pocket watch was bestowed with a minute repeater, a perpetual calendar, and a chronograph powered by a 20’’’ Piguet Freres movement. It was also one of the first pocket watches with instantaneous calendar ever made. Exhibiting all the characteristics that made Patek Philippe one of the foremost horological firms of the 19th century, it was shown at the 1876 Centennial International Exhibition in Philadelphia.

Literature
Prominently illustrated in “Patek Philippe Geneve” written by Marin Huber & Alan Banbery, p.234
Property from a Prestigious Family Collection 重要顯赫家族珍藏
Fast-forward to the first step away from the post-war period, Patek Philippe refreshed the line of Triple Complication into modern age with the launch of the reference 767 in 1951. A wonderful evolution from the maison’s traditional horological past, the “Moderne” reference was open-faced with clean and elegant lines, the bows are prominent and arched with integrated crown guards. 50mm in diameter, the three parts with a snapped caseback, majority of the reference 767 were crafted by master Geneva watchmaker Antoine Gerlach (Key number 4). Fitted with important movements found in inventory from the 20’s and refurbished, these pocket watches were cased after the 1950s all into yellow gold cases, each with their own unique nuance. The dials were also unique to each, such as the variation of Arabic and baton hour markers, some even feature a moon phase at 6 o’clock instead of 12. To the best of our knowledge, only 7 examples of the ref. 767 have ever appeared publicly, first exemplifying its rarity, but most important of all, it puts the spotlight on its most outstanding feature of this present ref. 767. The only known example to feature a double-split chronograph mechanism, a total of 5 hands mounted on the central pinion: Hour, Minutes, Chronograph, and Double-split hands.

PATEK PHILIPPE A possibly unique and historically important yellow gold minute repeating perpetual calendar double-split chronograph open-faced keyless pocket watch with “modern” style case, leap year indicator, applied Arabic numerals, French calendar, moon phases and presentation box 862.
Boasting incredible resemblance to the legendary perpetual calendar chronograph ref. 1518 with attractive Arabic numerals that marks the hours indexes. According to our research, the present specimen is possibly the only example to feature a French calendar, perhaps a special request by a distinguished collector, and was sold on 8th July 1952, being one of the earliest known example. The pocket watch was also prominently illustrated in the important Patek Philippe Geneve book by Martin Huber & Alan Banbery. According to our research, we believe that this very example was part of the Seth G. Atwood’s private collection. He founded the Time Museum Rockford in the United States in 1971, which later became one of the leading horological museums in the world with nearly 1,500 pieces of important horological pieces. The hall of fame from the collection includes the Patek Philippe Henry Graves Supercomplication, the quarter-repeater by Thomas Tompion and the Breguet Sympathique Clocks. An exceptional and highly regarded collector who collected the best of the best, it is absolutely no surprise to anyone that this particular museum-worthy ref. 767 was previously part of his possession.
Stunningly preserved in all its glory, the 1518-esque engraved enamel dial is exquisite and impeccable with matching movement number engraved on the underside. Setting this example apart from the rest is the vividly stamped key number 9 on the inner caseback. We learn that the present ref. 767 is crafted by legendary case maker Emile Vichet widely known for his creation of the highly valued and sought-after 1518 and first series 2499. The acoustic of this minute repeater is warm and pleasing to the ear. 11 hour strikes, three quarter strikes and 14 minute strikes, a constant tempo as each chime rings through the ears of generations. The Stern family for decades delivers the purest of chimes toward its long history of watchmaking. All is defined by solely the sound that rings to your ear, and none does it better than Patek Philippe.
THE SPLIT CHRONOGRAPH
Ever since the existence of humankind, the science of measuring time has been crucial within our society. The curiosity of precision aids us to a long evolution of advancement for tracking time. The chronograph, which measures the duration of an event played a critical role in horological history. 1822 began a time where French watchmaker Nicholas Rieussec invented and constructed the first chronograph. Indicated with an ink reservoir, elapsed time were marked by a drop of ink on the dial.
Twenty years later, Adolphe Nicole, Swiss watchmaker from the vallée de Joux was granted a patent for a chronograph mechanism that made it possible to have a seconds hand returned to its initial position. The “heart” of this mechanism is called “zero-reset heart cam” which is commonly used in most mechanical chronographs till this day. It further took another twenty long years for Nicole to present this device into a watch format. 1862 was the year that the first ever pocket watch that mastered the now well-known functions that constitute a chronograph: start, stop and reset.
Split-Chronograph:
Comparative time measurement of one event up to 2 targets
The chronograph was an important cornerstone for Patek Philippe’s history. The company began researching the measurement of brief time intervals just a few years after its founding in 1839. Driven by horological aspiration, Patek Philippe continuously stressed the refinement of technologies and the ongoing development of complications, and on 13th November, 1902, the first double chronograph mechanism or “split-seconds” was patented by the firm with a Victorin Piguet 19 lignes ébauche. Measuring intermediate times simultaneously, this is made possible by two chronograph seconds hands superimposed on each other.
To illustrate the steps simply:
1. The chronograph is started, the two hands advance together
2. The chronograph hand (upper hand) is stopped, allowing an intermediate time to be read.
3. The seconds chronograph hand (lower hand) is stopped
4. Return to zero of both hands
Double-split Chronograph:
Comparative time measurement of one event up to 3 targets (the present example)
The double-split chronograph mechanism is a chronograph with three hands mounted on the central pinion. An additional module is added on top of the split-seconds construction to achieve this feat.
Gold hand – Split seconds hand
Short Blue hand – Independent chronograph hand
Long Blue hand – Sweeping seconds hand
Alternatively, the independent chronograph function indicated by short and long blue hands can be activated by a single pusher positioned at 12 o’clock with four functions (Start, Split, Stop and reset) similar to a monopusher. While the split seconds chronograph requires the pusher at 11 (Split and Catchup) and 12 o’clock (Start, stop and reset). However, the chronograph cannot be restarted after the second time had been recorded. Pioneering precise measurement and compare single and additive times down to seconds and minutes in the early 20th century, it was only then, a century later, the addition of time measurement of a double-split function with 30 minute counter onto a wristwatch in 2004.
Possibly unique and kept in an astute private collection whom acquired this ref.767 for decades, this is a testament of Patek Philippe prowess by breaking records, devising, and constructing exceptional pieces that required years of interdisciplinary research into the fields of astronomy, mathematics and precision mechanics.

The Patek Philippe pocket watch reference 652/1 was introduced in 1937, and it was in production until 1994. To the best of our knowledge, the present timepiece is the only known Cartier-signed Patek Philippe reference 652/1 pocket watch that has appeared publicly on the auction market to date.
Evident from the key number 4 stamped on the inside caseback, the yellow gold case of the present watch is a remarkable creation by Antoine Gerlach, and it has aged beautifully with patina observable most notably on the bottom part of the case. It is further adorned with an intricate blue enamel coat of arms on the back cover, with the motto “Cari Deo Nihil Carent” (meaning “Those dear to God want nothing” in English). The heart of the present timepiece is powered by the rhodium finished 18-jewel movement calibre 17-170, decorated by Fausses Côtes and stamped with Geneva Seal. The main bridge of the movement is also stamped with “HOX”, indicating that it was made for the American market.
Preserved in excellent condition, the present pocket watch is an epitome of Patek Philippe’s exceptional workmanship and elegant design. Double-signed with Patek Philippe and Cartier’s signatures, it is complemented by applied gold Breguet numerals that has aged with an attractive layer of patina, feuille hands, and a minimalistic subsidiary dial, with blue indices that resonates with the blue enamel coat of arms. Imbued with a refined and sophisticated simplicity, this is truly a superb example not to not to be missed by the discerning collector.

Introduced in the year 2000, the Chronomètre à Résonance immediately captivated collectors worldwide with its impeccably designed dial and most notably, its double balance wheel. This model, particularly in its 38mm case and brass movement configuration, has achieved the pinnacle of collectability and has become a cult favorite throughout the years.
Journe’s pursuit of chronometry and accuracy led him to incorporate a system originally conceived by the renowned 18th-century watchmaker Antide Janvier and Abraham-Louis Breguet. Pushing the boundaries of innovative watchmaking, Journe successfully created a miniaturized modern wristwatch that harnessed the power of resonance.
As the world’s first wristwatch to utilize the resonance phenomenon, the caliber 1499 employs two balance wheels—one acting as an “exciter” and the other as a “resonator.” By beating in synchrony and opposition to each other, they create a resonance effect that naturally eliminates deviations and enhances accuracy.
Produced from 2000 to 2004, the first-generation Chronomètre à Résonance, like the present lot, features a highly sought-after rhodium-plated brass movement housed within a perfect 38mm case. Subsequent generations transitioned to pink gold movements, a design that continues to this day.
The present example encased in platinum made in circa 2002 showcases an attractively aged white gold dial that is truly a sight to behold. Not only does it belong to the desirable early generation of this model, but it is also accompanied by a full set of accessories. With the ever-growing demand and interest in early Journe pieces, the present example is highly coveted by collectors and aligns perfectly in today’s watchmaking vision.

Made between 2002 and 2005, the F.P. Journe Ruthenium Collection comprises five early brass movement timepieces with each released as a limited edition of 99 pieces. Among these, the Octa Chronographe stands out as a particularly special piece, being the world’s first automatic flyback chronometer chronograph with an oversized date window. It also features a larger 40mm case diameter, deviating from the traditional 38mm size of most of its predecessors, giving it a more modern appeal and presence on the wrist.
Ruthenium, though uncommon in watchmaking, is a rare inert metal closely related to the platinum family in the periodic table. It is highly valued in aerospace engineering for its natural resistance to oxidation and exceptional hardness. In the Ruthenium Collection, the brass movements of each timepiece are fully coated with a light-absorbing ruthenium coating. Similarly, the white gold dial is specially coated with the same treatment, while still preserving the remarkable sheen and luster found in F.P. Journe’s early solid gold dials. These dials often exhibit beautiful variations of patina, and in the case of the Ruthenium Collection, the tarnish-free darkness of the ruthenium coating enhances the glimmer of the underlying gold dial.
The present Octa Chronographe numbered 52 is in well-preserved overall condition and comes complete with its certificate and accessories. This adds to its desirability and makes it a highly collectible piece for enthusiasts of F.P. Journe watches.

F.P. Journe timepieces are highly sought after by collectors due to their limited production and high level of craftmanship, but the watches from the Ruthenium Collection hold a special place in the brand’s historical offerings. The collection was created as expressions of Francois-Paul Journe’s creativity and were exclusively produced for select longstanding clients. The collection consists of five models manufactured between 2002 and 2005, each limited to a production run of 99 pieces.
The Octa Jour/Nuit was introduced in 2002 as part of the Ruthenium Collection. It combines the day and night indication with the Octa movement and has only ever been available within this unique collection. What sets this collection apart is the use of ruthenium on the dial and movement, a rare precious metal from the platinum group of the periodic table. Ruthenium possesses exceptional durability, being resistant to scratches and oxidation. While it is not commonly used in watches, it finds applications in aerospace engineering and electronics due to its robust composition. Aesthetically, ruthenium exhibits a distinctive smokey grey sheen and a high-shine finish, imparting a sleek and stylish appearance to the watch.
This model holds a special significance as it represents a tangible piece of the brand’s history. Notably, all the watches from the Ruthenium Collection represent some of the last pieces to feature brass movements before F.P. Journe transitioned to pink gold movements. Together with all the accompanying accessories, it is an opportunity not to be missed to acquire one of the most exclusive F.P. Journe watches made.

In 2000, A. Lange & Söhne released a series of Lange 1 models featuring various complications, including the present Lange 1 Tourbillon. It was released as a limited edition in precious metals, with 250 pieces in 18K pink gold and 150 pieces in platinum. The model was in production for 3 years before its discontinuance in 2003.
Encased in a classic and highly wearable 38.5mm traditional round case, the tourbillon escapement composed of 72 individual parts is flawlessly positioned at the 5 o’clock of the dial, perfecting the enchantment of the asymmetric Lange 1 dial design. The sapphire caseback further showcases the manufacture’s signature ¾ plate composed of German silver and its hand-engraved balance cock, consisting of the brand’s signature flower petals motif.
Beautifully preserved, the present example in 18K pink gold numbered 210 is presented in excellent overall condition. Complete with its original guarantee and presentation box, the present Lange 1 Tourbillon from circa 2003 is a splendid addition to the collection of any serious collector.

The Piaget Altiplano Skeleton made a significant impact in the field of mechanical watchmaking with its groundbreaking features. It was first introduced at SIHH 2012 and stood out for its fully skeletonized dial and the world’s thinnest automatic movement at that time, measuring only 2.40 mm in thickness.
The present timepiece is housed in a 38mm case, which is framed by highly polished lugs and flanks that create a striking contrast against the sunburst skeletonized dial. Differentiating from other variations, the bridges in this model are treated with a dark black hue, producing a vivid contrast with the white gold case.
The sapphire crystal caseback allows the wearer to admire the beautifully executed ultra-thin 1200S movement. Creating an ultra-thin movement is a painstaking and challenging task that requires great expertise and precision. Each component is carefully hollowed and hand finished, demanding the skills of Piaget artisans.
Numbered 12 out of 150 pieces, the number is engraved on the platinum micro rotor. It presents a unique opportunity to own a sleek and handsome ultra-thin watch that is truly impressive in its craftsmanship and design.

Upon observing the dial and case construction of this Ulysse Nardin timepiece, one cannot help but appreciate how the seemingly busy dial is harmoniously orchestrated by the remarkable movement design, akin to a work of art. Throughout the history of watchmaking, the alarm function has not received as much attention from watchmakers compared to other complications, as it was deemed less practical. Many watches offering an alarm function only serve as one-off reminders without the need to repeat itself.
However, Ulysse Nardin has elevated this complication to new heights through their innovative and groundbreaking approach. The intricate calibre UN-67 allows for a user-friendly 24-hour setting, surpassing the limitations of the standard 12-hour setting found in most other watches on the market. This countdown system spanning a full 24 hours makes it incredibly convenient to set, presenting a very practical way of managing this feature. Notably, once the alarm is activated by pressing the button on the left crown, it will sound daily without requiring a reset.
While most alarm watches emit a buzzing sound upon activation, this particular timepiece is equipped with a cathedral gong, surpassing the quality of a typical minute repeater commonly found in the market. The cathedral gong encircles the movement twice, producing a rich and crisp sound, showcasing the ingenious craftsmanship of Ulysse Nardin. Encased in 18K white gold, this watch also incorporates a dual time function and a large date display, making it an unconventional yet highly practical masterpiece.

Breguet has led the way for two of horology’s most desirable complications: the tourbillon and the perpetual calendar. Each tourbillon watch by Breguet features an engraving, “Brevet du 7 Messidor An 9”, or in the Gregorian calendar, June 26th, 1801. After the French Revolution, a new calendar was imposed and it was during this time of political, social, and economic upheaval that Abraham-Louis Breguet first began to work on the concept of the tourbillon years earlier and finally patented it in 1801. Imagine, throughout the French Revolution, the Reign of Terror, the rule of the Directory, Napoleon’s return to France, and the establishment of Napoleon’s Consulate –Breguet was inventing the foundations of horology that are still immensely relevant today.
The present timepiece combines two formidable horological innovations in an oversized yellow gold case. On the dial, the simple perpetual calendar layout and exposed tourbillon cage is framed by the signature guilloché patterns favored by Breguet. Sitting across the tourbillon toward the top is the hour and minutes indication, further charmed with a retrograde date that is read by a serpentine hand. On the movement, the awe of its impeccable floral scrolls are completely hand-finished will impress the astute collector. Embodying the pinnacle of artistry, innovation of a classic icon, the timepiece is preserved in its “new-old-stock” condition by its original owner. Crisp and stunning, the deployant clasp even retains its factory sticker.

Established in 1845, Glashütte is renowned for its functionality and is one of the most reputable watchmakers in Saxony. Synonymous with Glashütte design is their meticulous attention to detail in both the movement and dials. This exceptional timepiece is no exception, featuring a sunray-style guilloché pattern that radiates across the dial. On the reverse side, the signature Glashütte perlage surface adorns the movement, adding to its exquisite appeal.
The captivating PanoMatic Tourbillon made its debut at the Basel watch show in 2003, showcasing one of the most visually striking and elegant watchmaking complications: the Flying Tourbillon. Originally conceived and realized by Alfred Helwig, a renowned teacher and master watchmaker at the German Watchmaking School Glashütte from 1913 to 1954, the Flying Tourbillon stands as a remarkable contribution to modern watchmaking from Saxony.
This remarkable complication houses a balance, pallets, and an escapement wheel within a cantilevered carriage that completes a full 360-degree rotation every minute. This ingenious design compensates for the effects of gravity, ensuring exceptional accuracy and precision.
Presented in excellent overall condition and accompanied by accessories, this exquisite timepiece pays homage to an extraordinarily inventive pioneer of German Watchmaking.

Louis Leroy was born in 1860 and considered by many as the equivalent of Breguet in terms of aesthetic and technical innovations. In 1900 he created the Leroy 01, the most complicated watch ever made with an astounding 24 complications on two dials, other than the chiming complications such as minute repeater, grande and petite sonnerie the Leroy 01 also indicated time in 125 cities, seasons, the winter and summer solstice, spring and autumn equinox a perpetual calendar a hygrometer, a barometer and even an altimeter. The Leroy 01 also had 3 interchangeable celestial charts representing the sky over Paris, Lisbon and Rio de Janeiro. The Leroy 01 remained the world’s most complicated timepiece until 1989 and Patek Philippe’s caliber 89.
With the watchmaking expertise, Leroy has fruitful collaborations with some of the most esteemed observatories worldwide. On 26th August 1932, the present watch was submitted for rating at the Observatory of Besançon and achieved an impressive score of 169.35 points. Additionally, it received a first-class rating, as indicated by the engraving on the cuvette and most importantly, the prestigious viper’s head hallmark stamped on the movement by the Observatory of Besançon. Not once, but twice it has been tested and stamped. Indicated by the different orientations of the stamp, an “upright” position corresponding to 1st Classe, and the viper facing right indicating 3rd Classe, a testament to the watch's success during the two trials.
While one might expect a chronometer-grade movement to be found in a time-only watch, the current timepiece boasts an impressive minute repeating perpetual calendar chronograph movement. This is a remarkable feat of mechanical prowess, especially considering it was produced in the 1930s. The engine-turned dial adds to the watch’s allure and is exceptionally well-balanced. Notably, it also features a rare digital year indication for 21 years at the 6 o’clock aperture, showcasing the watch's exceptional excellence. As the year ring starts from “1964”, it is worth noting that the original owner possibly replaced it with a new one 34 years after acquiring the watch.

The present Audemars Piguet watch evolved from a long tradition of horological excellence, a masterpiece produced by a master watchmaking brand. It is interesting to note that in the early 1970s, despite the decline in demand for pocket watches due to the Quartz crisis, Audemars Piguet continued producing extraordinarily costly, grand complication pocket watches, beautifully embodying the brand’s expertise in complications.
A legacy that begin from 1875, the present yellow gold grand complication pocket watch is a modern interpretation that celebrates the Le Brassus brand’s 125th anniversary. During the year 2000, Audemars Piguet held a travelling exhibition that features 125 of their creation that illustrates the manufacture’s achievements. At the same time, a limited series was also made available conjunction with this important milestone.
Kept in a private collection since its birth, the present exceptional yellow gold minute repeating perpetual calendar pocket watch embodies the brand’s beauty and masterful craftmanship. Extra flat in its dimension yet packed with feats, the ref. 25565BA is supremely elegant. A perfect balance with pleasing Roman numerals that surrounds the serene sunken sub-dials, the delicate play of petite typography within displays information with clarity.
Numbered 10 and preserved in exceptional condition, the ref. 25565 chimes with great tone and clarity. A complete set that has been treasured by its original owner for years, a warm layer of patina can be appreciated throughout the pocket watch. A rare opportunity for all collectors to own a horological masterpiece, the consignor of the present watch will also be giving the proceeds of the sale to various charities.

The wandering hours complication encapsulates imaginative watchmaking, with satellite discs displaying the hours while gravitating along an arc-shaped minute track. In 1991, Audemars Piguet masterfully interpreted this 17th century horological rarity as the Star Wheel collection.
Today a neo-vintage classic, the Star Wheel features three sapphire discs with printed hours rotating on a central wheel. Time is indicated by a pointed arrow traveling along the retrograde-style minutes on the dial’s upper portion. Initially launched in precious metals and steel, dials displayed guilloché or floral engravings.
This yellow gold example exhibits a wonderfully hand-engraved dial depicting floral motifs alongside the revolving “Star Wheels.” A true Audemars Piguet classic, the Star Wheel’s importance is recognized again as collectors rediscover its poetic time display.
Whether drawn to the new Code 11:59 interpretation or this neo-vintage origin, the playful wandering hours remain an entrancing complication for connoisseurs. With imagination and artistry, Audemars Piguet transformed this 17th century rarity into a contemporary icon.

Introduced by Patek Philippe in 1998, the ref. 5059 holds a special place in the storied watchmaker’s history – Along with its sibling ref. 5050, it represented the first perpetual calendar wristwatch with center seconds produced since the discontinuation of references 2497 and 2438-1. This return to center seconds after a long hiatus gave the ref. 5059 an instant appeal and distinction. Its refined 36mm officer-style case with curved lugs and hinged snap caseback added to its sleek mid20th century aesthetic. The ingenious self-winding cal. 315 S QR beating inside was derived from the cal. 315 SC, optimized for center seconds. As a sophisticated and robust Patek Philippe in-house movement, the caliber incorporated an array of complications including perpetual calendar with retrograde date – an especially intriguing feature.
With production spanning from 1998 to 2006, it is estimated that a mere 1200 to 1400 examples of ref. 5059 were brought into existence across all metal variants before its discontinuation. Of these, the rarest version in pink gold is thought to number around 340 pieces – making them highly exclusive and coveted on the market.
The present example, ref. 5059R-017, immediately stands out as extraordinary. Its sunburst brown dial is evidence of its status as part of a special edition made for the London market – only the second example to appear at auction. The rich chocolate brown dial provides a perfect complement to the pink gold case. Fitted with the same hue of brown as the unique 5059R-018 with Breguet numerals “MSO’ monogram dial that was sold for US$264,600 at PHILLIPS New York Auction: Seven, this variant is further distinguished by its pink gold applied Roman numerals and white centre seconds and retrograde hand.
Preserved in outstanding condition with barely any signs of wear and further accompanied by its full set of accessories, the present ref. 5059 is without a doubt an incredibly rare one to come across at auction.

Delivered with Audemars Piguet Extract from the Archives confirming the register date of the present timepiece on 9th September 1975.
The present Audemars Piguet reference reference 5442 is a masterpiece of meticulous craftsmanship emblematic of the past era. Produced at the beginning of the Swiss quartz crisis, the watch is fitted with an exquisitely hand-engraved movement exemplary of the early timepieces with openworking. During the winter of 1972, the watchmakers at the Le Brassus workshops set about to developing the first openworked model for the brand, and the first reference 5442 was successfully delivered one year later in November 1973. Since it took an artisan 150 hours to complete an openworked calibre 2120, it took three years to deliver the first 100 watches. An average of 30 watches were produced annually until 1976, and the present timepiece bearing movement number 136’063 belongs to the first batch of 100 openworked movement created for calibre 2120.
As post-war watchmaking was characterized by the production of ultra-thin selfwinding movements, the legendary calibre 2120 fitted into the present timepiece was introduced in 1967, and measures a mere thickness of 2.45 mm. It was rooted from a collaboration between Audemars Piguet, LeCoultre & Cie and Vacheron Constantin, and ultimately becoming the calibre powering the first Royal Oak wristwatches in 1972.
The present timepiece is further engraved with an enigmatic Khanjar crest on the skeletonized rotor, indicating that it was made for the Sultanate of Oman.

Introduced in 2010, the Rolex Submariner ref. 116610LV is a highly coveted timepiece that holds an iconic status within watch collectors. Nicknamed the “Hulk”, it succeeded the 50th Anniversary reference 16610LV “Kermit” and share a similar overall design and aesthetics. However, one of its distinguishing features is the robust and scratchresistant green Cerachrom bezel. The bezel is complemented by a sunburst dial that shares the same sheen, creating a harmonious aesthetic. The vibrant green hue of the dial adds depth to the otherwise understated design and pays homage to Rolex’s signature color.
Adding to its rarity, the present example boasts a caseback engraving of the “Khanjar”. These timepieces with the special emblem were commissioned by His Majesty Sultan Qaboos and are exceedingly rare and sought-after. The watch is offered in a “new-old-stock” condition, meaning it has never been worn and retains its original stickers. It is accompanied by its original accessories, Khanjar stamped outer box and comes with a guarantee stamped by Khimji Ramdas, the official retailer of Rolex in Muscat, Oman.

Accompanied by Patek Philippe Royal Khanjar fitted presentation box. Further delivered with two Patek Philippe Extract from the Archives confirming date of manufacture of the present timepiece in 1978 and its subsequent date of sale on 14th January 1980.
The immense historical significance, royal provenance and utmost rarity of the present Patek Philippe reference 3700 Nautilus make it one of the most exciting and important examples to ever appear at auction. First making its auction debut at Phillips Geneva Watch
Auction: Three in May 2016, we are now extremely delighted and honored to be once again entrusted with this distinguished timepiece. Amongst its many virtues, its bold, white crowned Khanjar at 6 o’clock makes it an extraordinary watch of Omani royal provenance, and amongst the rarest of all Khanjar watches known to the market.
The Khanjar—a curved dagger atop crossed swords – Oman’s national symbol, was introduced by the late Sultan Qaboos bin Said Al Said upon the country’s founding in 1970 and has become a coveted symbol at the intersection of Middle Eastern royalty, rarity, and intrigue. Its storied provenance captures the imagination of watch collectors worldwide. This storied emblem traces its origins to Oman’s formative days as a modern nation, epitomizing the country’s cultured influence in the 20th century. Few royal families forged such meaningful ties with the finest Swiss manufactures during this era. The late Sultan Qaboos bin Said al Said, Oman’s longest-reigning monarch, was at the epicenter of these relationships.
Of equal significance, the present ref. 3700 is distinguished by its 18K white gold case and bracelet – an extraordinarily uncommon and lavish configuration for such an early Nautilus. Manufactured in 1978, the present lot is one of only 13 known white gold examples to have graced the market since the model’s inception in 1976. Until now, only 3 examples of the ref. 3700 with Khanjar dial in white gold have surfaced on the market, including the present lot. What’s even more significant is the fact that the present example is one of two known white gold ref. 3700 that bears a crowned Khanjar – the Royal Khanjar emblem of the Sultan and his family.

THE ROYAL KHANJAR
Made on special commission for His Majesty Sultan Qaboos bin Said al Said, the present ref. 3700 was gifted by the Sultan himself to an esteemed recipient as a token of honor. This tradition of gifting timepieces began after the Sultan’s victory over the Dhofar Rebellion aided by Britain’s elite Special Forces. To convey gratitude, His Majesty presented customised “Khanjar” Patek Philippes to instrumental SAS soldiers. Special thanks to expertise knowledge provided by Dr. Helmut Crott, we now understand that those with a crowned Khanjar emblem on the dial means it was gifted from the Sultan directly, and those with the original Khanjar means that it was gifted by the state of Oman.
According to our research, only 11 of these Khanjar ref. 3700 have surfaced on the auction market so far – 4 in stainless steel, 4 in yellow gold, and 3 in white gold, with the present lot being one of two known examples with Royal Khanjar dial. Truly an emblem of comradeship, this exclusive Nautilus conveys the profound connection between His Majesty and those who earned his respect. For the honored recipient, it signifies their integral role and the Sultan’s deep personal regard.
Ref. 3700 with Khanjar dial known to the market in stainless steel:
It is worth nothing that all three of these white gold ref. 3700 were subsequently sold on January 14th, 1980 according to their Extract from the Archives, attesting to the legitimacy of these Sultan special orders.
ASPREY AND THE SULTAN
Sultan Qaboos, an early wristwatch enthusiast, keenly collected Swiss timepieces as the industry grew into a global luxury business. His fervor never waned, even as collecting communities were still nascent. Young Qaboos attended school in England, forging a formative friendship with Tim Landon, who facilitated the Sultan’s ties with John Asprey of the luxury emporium. Asprey proved instrumental in fulfilling the Sultan’s wishes for double-signed watches, managing orders between Middle Eastern royalty and top Swiss brands like Patek Philippe and Rolex.
Inspired by Royal warrants, Qaboos sought a magisterial Omani crest to lend credibility to his new reign. Beyond inspiration, Asprey enabled its application to prized timepieces as the Sultan’s discreet intermediary. Through this channel, Qaboos became a prolific 20th century collector. Placing his royal crest alongside storied Swiss names carried powerful symbolism for the new state. As there were no authorized retailers in Oman at the time, nearly all watches commissioned by the Sultan were ordered and sold through the pre-eminent House of Asprey in London. On rare occasions however, a few exceptional pieces such as the present lot were acquired through Asprey Geneva. Accordingly, the watch is accompanied by its original box, stamped with the same crowned Khanjar emblem as found on the watch’s dial. Inside the cover of the box, one finds the prestigious stamped inscription “Asprey, 40 Rue du Rhone, Geneva” attesting to this Khanjar’s exclusive Swiss origins.
This direct Asprey Geneva lineage adds immeasurable cachet and collector appeal. The House’s prestigious name in watchmaking lends authority in authenticating the piece’s high caliber provenance. Within horological circles, an Asprey signature has long stood for uncompromising quality and exclusivity. For the discerning Patek Philippe collector, there can be no better certification of the Khanjar’s premier pedigree than this box stamped by the venerable Asprey itself. It places this exceptional watch in rarefied air, cementing its importance for collectors and historians.
In yellow gold:
Further kept in phenomenal condition for its age, with no signs of ever being polished, the timepiece retains its sharp bevels, angles, and curves. The original dial is free of any restorations, with handsomely matured luminous baton hour markers that align perfectly with the original hands. The Extract from the Archives confirms the white gold case and bracelet, as well as the dial with its steel baton hour markers.
The present lot’s profound historical value, noble lineage, exceptional condition, magnificent rarity accompanied by its original box of equal rarity render it one of the most enigmatic and exclusive Patek Philippe Nautilus to be offered at auction in recent years.

The Patek Philippe reference 5500 and 4900 belong to an important limited series of wristwatch models produced prior to the turn of the millennium. Known as the “Pagoda” collection, these timepieces pay tribute to the distinctive case shapes from Patek Philippe’s vintage era. The collection features a unique flared rectangular case with a tiered tower-like caseband. This special edition set of watches, comprising four men’s models (ref. 5500) and three ladies’ models (ref. 4900), was released in 1997 to commemorate the opening of Patek Philippe’s Plan-les-Ouates facility.
The reference 5500 was produced in limited quantities, with only 1100 pieces made in yellow gold, 500 in pink gold, 250 in white gold, and 150 in platinum. The ladies’ model is even rarer, with a production of 500 pieces in yellow gold, 150 pieces in pink gold, and 100 pieces in white gold.
The present example showcases the Patek Philippe Pagoda ref. 5500 in platinum where it holds the distinction of being the rarest among all the materials and features the most striking black dial within the collection. The dial showcases a refined railway minute track, while the elongated applied numerals harmonize perfectly with the vertical Pagoda case.
Exuding elegance, this timepiece serves as the ideal dress watch for a gentleman. The present ref. 5500, fresh-to-the market, represents a significant milestone for Patek Philippe and will always hold a special place in the brand’s watchmaking history.

The Patek Philippe refence 3796 was in production from 1982 to 1999, and it is a descendant of the discontinued reference 96, the first and original Calatrava from the 1930s. It shares the same case size measuring at 31mm in diameter as the reference 96, giving a similar presence on the wrist. The present example features a rare and captivating “pink on pink” combination. As the use of pink gold was particularly popular in the 1920s, this configuration accentuates the vintage classic aesthetics of the timepiece.
The well-preserved pink gold case matches the charming pink gold Sigma dial in perfect harmony. Together with the pink gold dauphine hands and pink gold applied baton hour markers on top, a sense of depth is added to layout and the overall design emanates supreme elegance. The present watch is powered by the caliber 215, a successor introduced in 1974 to the calibre 12-120 and a staple movement in the Calatrava collection.
Preserved in outstanding overall condition and complete with its set of accessories, this striking timepiece is a true testament to Patek Philippe’s discreet elegance and ageless aesthetics, and would undoubtedly appeal to our lady and gentleman collectors.

The Patek Philippe Calatrava is the first model released in 1932 after the manufacture was taken over by Charles and Henri Stern, and it is a true classic that has been cemented as a staple in the Patek Philippe’s history. The reference 3796 was produced between 1982 to 1999, as a direct descendant of the discontinued reference 96, and it is arguably the last true “legacy model” made by the firm.

Celebrating Patek Philippe’s 175th anniversary with style, the present timepiece is surely one of the most elegant release during 2014. Part of a limited edition series, the ref. 4675 was released in two metals, white gold and pink gold each limited to 150 pieces. Each proudly engraved with 175th anniversary on its caseback and are powered by the in-house self-winding calibre CH 28-520. Alongside of the celebration, the release also witnessed the introduction of the firm’s most complicated wristwatch, the Grandmaster Chime ref. 5175 with only 7 examples made.
Preciously sculpted in 18K white gold, the contours of the ref. 4675 is incredibly three-dimensional thanks to the angular stepped lugs. The dial features a multi-scale dial that displays three scales: tachymeter, telemeter and pulsations. Finely printed on top of an almost cream coloured dial, the sophisticated and unconventional choice of a maroon brown and serif typeface gives this timepiece a classic yet modern touch. Cleverly marking the hours of the day with 12 baguette-cut diamond-set indexes and a pair of petite leaf hands, the multi-scale indication can be easily read with the long chronograph hand that extends to the edge of the dial.
Well-preserved and accompanied with its full set of accessories, the owner can style the present timepiece with different looks. While the brown ostrich strap complements extremely well against the maroon brown scale, it will pair equally well with an earth tone ring jacket. The striking bright blue crocodile strap will definitely bring a bit of colour to a classic blue suit.

The Calatrava model has long been the cornerstone of Patek Philippe’s collection of time-only wristwatches. It made its debut in 1932 with the legendary reference 96 and has since undergone continuous upgrades and modernizations. In 2013, Patek Philippe introduced the reference 5227, which featured a 39mm diameter case and housed the automatic 324 SC caliber with center seconds and a date function. This reference is still available today and offered in 18K yellow, white, and pink gold options.
The present watch showcases an elegant white gold case adorned with a striking black lacquered dial. The case design follows the classic Calatrava aesthetic but incorporates an innovative hinged caseback reminiscent of the officer’s style case. Patek Philippe invested two years in developing this hidden hinged back, which seamlessly integrates into the case, allowing collectors to admire the meticulously finished movement within. Notably, with early examples engraved “Patek Philippe” inside the caseback, later examples like this watch are left blank, providing owners with the option to personalize the watch themselves. In “like-new” overall condition, the watch is further complete with all its accompanying accessories.

The Patek Philippe reference 5004 is widely recognized as one of the most sought-after grand complications in the neo-vintage era. Renowned for combining multiple Grand Complications into a single movement, this collection carries on the lineage of Patek Philippe’s iconic perpetual calendar chronograph watches since 1941. These watches not only have a legendary reputation but also hold a pinnacle status in the world of Patek Philippe collecting.
Introduced in 1996, the reference 5004 was a significant milestone for the brand as it was their first serially produced watch to feature a perpetual calendar with the sophisticated split-seconds chronograph complication. With its classic 36.5mm case, it captures the hearts of collectors and connoisseurs alike, embodying the centuries-old horological expertise and timeless design codes of the esteemed manufacturer. Notably, the timepiece also marked the end of Patek Philippe’s use of the Lemania-based caliber, calibre CH 27-70 Q. Due to the intricacy and labor-intensive nature of its production, only around 12 reference 5004 watches came out of the manufacturer each year. After a 16-year production run, the reference 5004 was succeeded by the reference 5204 in 2012, featuring an in-house movement. An exceptionally rare timepiece, it was highly soughtafter and notoriously difficult to secure from boutiques as it was an application piece back then.
The present example in luster platinum features a semi-glossy black dial which is adorned with 10 brilliantly-cut and 1 baguette-cut diamond at the 12 hour, creating a truly exceptional visual appeal. In excellent overall condition and accompanied by all of its original accessories, this timepiece represents a highly collectible and mechanically impressive piece that will be one of the grail watches in the years to come.

Charles Frodsham is a highly esteemed English watchmaking firm since the latter half of the 19th century. In 1854, Charles Frodsham succeeded Benjamin Lewis Vulliamy as the Superintendent and Keeper of Her Majesty's Clocks at Buckingham Palace, serving the King, the Prince of Wales, and Queen Alexandra. Following Charles's passing, his son Harrison Mill Frodsham took control of the firm and incorporated it as Charles Frodsham & Co. Ltd. in 1893. Harrison Mill Frodsham proved to be a skilled horologist and businessman, and the company continued to thrive as a maker of brilliant timepieces.
The present lot represents an exceptional example of the iconic Charles Frodsham tourbillon pocket watch. Bearing the serial number No. 08'867, currently, only 12 of these watches have re-emerged in the market, while the rest are either held in private collections or remain in the possession of descendants of the original owners. This remarkable timepiece incorporates a minute repeater, split-seconds chronograph, and a one-minute tourbillon, which the monumental movement of this watch is also featured on the official Charles Frodsham website. During their production, these watches were among the most intricate and expensive English timepieces available, retailing between £200 and £350.
The watch is in magnificent condition, displaying a distinct stepped case, unrubbed hallmarks on the bow and winding stem, and an incredibly pristine enamel dial devoid of any blemishes. Many Frodsham watches particularly feature the coded letters “AD Fmsz” on the dials and movements. This cryptogram corresponds to 1850 when Charles Frodsham introduced his new caliper watch and was subsequently used as a symbol of the highest quality.
The inner caseback bears hallmarks including the Leopard’s head, representing London’s Assay Office, the crown symbolizing 18-carat gold, the letter “f” serving as a date stamp corresponding to the year 1901, and “HMF” denoting Harrison Mill Frodsham as the casemaker. Notably, the three-quarter plate movement of the watch features interesting engravings such as the business premises of Charles Frodsham at “115 New Bond Street, Late of 84 Strand”.
In 1902, the present watch underwent a time trial at the Kew Observatory (now known as The King’s Observatory) in Richmond, Surrey. It was subjected to different temperatures and positions and achieved the highest A certificate with 78.4 marks, ranking 8th out of 13 watches in the “Complicated watches”category. Notably, it has been sitting in the same collection for nearly 3 decades by a very prominent family.
Today, Charles Frodsham continues to craft wristwatches of exceptional quality, with their iconic Double Impulse Chronometer garnering significant success in auctions. It stands as a pinnacle of English watchmaking.

Vacheron Constantin’s reference 4737 is a wonderful example of the artistically flamboyant design language expressed by the brand during the mid-20th century. Focusing on clean lines and biomorphic shapes, the brand created a new aesthetic with this large, organic, square- shaped wristwatch with rounded stepped lugs and bezel, along with the slightly curved case. Introduced in the 1950s, the watch became known by Italian collectors as the “Cioccolatone” for the square-shaped chocolates they enjoy, and has over the last 70 years become an iconic Vacheron Constantin. Its avant-garde, industrial design exemplifies the beauty and artistic creativity the brand is known for. Manufactured with both manual and automatic movements, the collection featured timepieces with either subsidiary seconds or center seconds, as well as with and without date apertures, along with very rare triple calendar examples with moon phase.
Until today, 335 examples of Vacheron Constantin’s reference 4737 were known and only approximately 62 examples are cased in pink gold. Highly collectible, the present pink “Cioccolatone” is a delicious example. Distinguished by its well-preserved voluptuously sculpted case crafted by Ponti Gennari (Key number 26 stamped on the inner caseback), the hallmarks remains intact at 6 o’clock and behind the lug. The matching hand engraved serial ‘710’ and ‘2710’ within the case further testifies the collectability of this pink gold example. Highly rare, the dial is in equally stunning condition, the raised enamel signature is strong, the pink gold hour markers are simple yet elegant.
Powered by the calibre P1019 stamped with the approval of excellence with the Geneva seal, the present example is further confirmed with the Vacheron Constantin Extract from the Archives of its year of manufacture in 1956. Absolutely stunning addition to any collection, the timepiece can also be paired with an 18K gold bracelet for the exuberant individual.

Delivered with Longines Extract from the Archives dated 13th May 2020, confirming the present watch was sold on 23rd September 1940 to the company Terrasse, Longines’ agent for Sweden.
Founded by Auguste Agassiz in 1832, Longines is best known for their outstanding production of pilot’s and military chronograph wristwatches. However, dedicated vintage collectors would know that the Longines “Tre-Tacche” wristwatches from the 1930s to 1940s are of comparable desirability and collectability, and should also be appreciated for their refined proportions and elegant simplicity, which paved the way to the classic stainless-steel sports watch.
The present timepiece is adorned with a beautiful two-tone sector dial with a grey centre, delightfully juxtaposing with the white outer minute ring and subsidiary dial. Minimalistic in design, the two-tone dial matches the stepped bezel, creating much depth visually. The blued hands with patina developed on the surface complement nicely to give the watch even more charisma.
The 30mm diameter waterproof steel case features a screw-down case back with three notches which give the model its nickname, “Tre-Tacche”. The watch is further fitted with a robust in-house manual movement, caliber 10.68N, which was also found in some of the manufacturer’s other great vintage models, like the small Lindbergh Hour Angle.
The present example was invoiced on 23 September 1940 to Terrasse, Longines’s agent for Sweden at the time. Preserved in attractive condition, and delivered with a Longines extract, this understated vintage Longines “Tre-Tacche” should not be missed by the discerning collector.

Nicknamed the “Calatravone” (large Calatrava in Italian), the 35mm diameter reference 570 might seem oversized back in the late 30s, but doubtful under today’s standard. Ultra-thin, and a definition of understated elegance that slides right under the cuffs, this is now the perfectly sized dress watch for the connoisseurs of modern days. Available in the Patek Philippe catalogue for more than 3 decades, the aesthetic is very much a form follows function design that was launched in series. The firm introduced two variants including one with small seconds and another with center seconds, encased in an array of different configurations across 5 metals: yellow, white and pink gold, will very few examples in stainless steel and the noble, platinum.
Part of the second series, the present Calatravone is powered by the manual calibre 27 SC which began production during the 1950s and is a modification of the original calibre 12 Sci with the added sweep seconds mechanism by Victorin Piguet. Like the ref 96, cases were made by Antonie Gerlach, the specialist on Calatrava cases for Patek Philippe.
Preserved in stunning condition with razor sharp edges, this hefty ref. 570 is cased in the noblest metal of all, platinum. Crisp hallmarks can be found behind the lugs, the downturned lugs are well-balanced and strong. According to our research, less than 80 examples of the platinum 570 has appeared publicly in the auction market. A classic timepiece born in 1961 confirmed by the Patek Philippe Extract from the Archives and preserved in wonderful condition with strong raised enamel, this is the perfect watch for those who knows how to appreciate the less is more ethos.

Stepping into the 1940s, a demand for a wristwatch enabling gentlemen to step into the new world of adventure was soaring. A chronograph timepiece that is not only robust with good looks, the practically was also vital for the era. Patek Philippe’s answer for this rising demand was the now legendary reference 1463, the “Tasti Tondi” translated as “round pushers”. Differentiating from its big brother chronograph reference 130, these pushers debuted together with its screwed down caseback gave the “Tasti Tondi” a water-resistant ability, a first for the brand.
According to scholars, approximately 720 pieces of the reference were produced between 1940 to 1965 across three metals, yellow gold, stainless steel, and very few in pink gold. In fact, approximately only 49 ref. 1463 in pink gold have appeared publicly in the auction market, underlining the rarity of the present stunning example.
Born in 1970 and found its way to its first owner on 21st August 1972, the present pink gold example is very well-preserved thanks to its exceptional water-proof case made by one of the finest Geneva waterresistant case maker, Taubert, identified by the Key number 11 stamped on the inner caseback. Since 1924, Taubert purchase Frères Borgel where an additional “FB” hallmark was stamped as well on their products.
A specimen from 54 years ago, the present example boasts crisp hallmark on its caseband. Encapsulated by the crisp bevels of its stepped bezel is an exceptional Arabic numeral dial manufactured by Stern identified with 93 ☆ stamped on the back of the dial. With all its desirable raised hard enamel throughout the signature and graphics completely intact and a strong pink gold case that features beautiful downturn lugs, this 1463 is the definition of a collectible time capsule piece.
13 years since it was last offered publicly in auction, the Tasti Tonti belonged to the original owner who received it as a birthday gift. Originally born on a leather strap, the current owner styled it with a gorgeous matching pink gold bracelet to enhance the collectibility of this gorgeous specimen. Highly desirable and stamped with Gay Frères, it is considered one of the best – if not the best overall –bracelet makers of all times, his creations as scarce as they are sublime and comfortable. It is no surprise that the company was the “go-to” bracelet supplier for the most distinguished brands on the market.
The present Tasti Tondi is also blessed with its original Certificate of Origin, presentation box and an Extract from the Archives, making this specimen one not to be missed.

Arguably one of the most timeless and elegant time-only reference ever created by Patek Philippe, it is impossible not to adore the reference 2526. Making its debut in 1953, it marks an important horological milestone as Patek Philippe’s first-ever serially produced automatic wristwatch. Its practical self-winding caliber is combined with an unbeatable classic design with the tastefully executed offwhite enamel dial. Produced in all metals including yellow gold, pink gold, white gold and platinum, it is estimated that only approximately 2,500 examples were produced during its production span until 1960, and an estimated 2,350 examples were encased in yellow gold across all four series.
This attractive yellow gold example is from the second series, featuring a domed screw-down case back, an exquisite enamel dial with laid indexes, period-correct smaller 6 o’clock index and the charming original forged “double P” crown. In equal measure to its appearance, the calibre 12-600 inside the watch is often considered one of the best automatic movements ever created. This is because Patek Philippe, like all other manufacturers, was not able to use a rotor to create an automatic movement until the Rolex patent expired. Patek Philippe focused on improving the mechanism for over two decades while they were patiently waiting for the Rolex patent to expire, and the finesse of the calibre 12-600 is the result of this great endeavour.
Offered in great overall condition, and delivered with a Patek Philippe Extract from the Archives confirming its year of manufacture in 1955, the present example is truly a splendid epitome of elegance, and a rare gem that should not be missed by the discerning connoisseur.

Not many watches are truly timeless, but when it comes to Cartier, their designs are as popular today as they were a century ago. Champions of elegant icons, the Parisian Maison took the world by storm with the introduction of the Baignoire in 1957, a model that was made to last beyond the peak of the “Swinging Sixties”. Shaping the history of traditional watchmaking with adventurous forms, the manufacturer steered away from their distinctive angular cases to a “bathtub” shaped wristwatch inspired by its unnamed predecessor from 1912.
If the shape of the original Baignoire is daring, the out-stretched form of the Baignoire Allongée is downright audacious. Well-received among watch collectors, the successful second chapter of the model was born in 1973, sporting a slender oval case that was previously only ever produced by Cartier’s London and New York workshops. Elongated with an elegantly arched case primarily in yellow gold and sometimes white gold, the Baignoire Allongée is born to impress on the wrist.
The present Baignoire Allongée is not your average example, surpassing its peers, the connoisseur will notice the warm red hue on its “Maxi Oval” case and the touch of red on its stubby crown. Crafted in pink gold and fitted with a finishing touch of a ruby-set cabochon crown, this specimen is a creation in the 1980s. The matte off-white dial is wrapped gracefully with long Roman numerals in black that cleverly fans out to form an inner circle (with the absence of the usual Chemin de fer) and proudly flaunts its Paris inscription. The movement is a Cartier signed 78-1 calibre based on the ETA 2512 that populates the maison’s timepieces during the era.
Notably, this is the only publicly known example to be in this configuration and have been kept in a private collection for more than three decades. According to our research, there is only one other example that can be on par with the present one, the only difference would be its burgundy colored Roman numerals. Interesting fact, they are just one case number away from each other.

The Cartier Tank Cintrée was born in 1921, 2 years after the birth of the original Cartier Tank. Perpetuating the traits of its predecessor, the Tank Cintrée has evolved into an elongated rectangular case with elegant curves that sits comfortably on the wrist, and it soon became one of the most celebrated icons of the maison. In the 1990’s, Cartier went on to create the Tank Cintrée dual-time with an endearing split dial for dual-time display. Containing two manually wound movements operated by two faceted crowns fitted into a single case, the timepiece is a poetic union of form and function.
Imbued with charming Parisian flamboyance and glamour, the stunning salmon dial of the present example would not fail to mesmerize the viewer. It features an alluring shade of salmon meticulously crafted with guilloché pattern that emanates from the Cartier signature at the center of the dial and then flows across to the rest of the dial. This is opposed to the guilloché pattern seen on the other CPCP Dual Time models, which usually stems from the center of each of the two dials. It is an intoxicating sight to see the dial shimmer under different lighting, emitting an array of alluring salmon hues.
The top dial of the present example is adorned with applied Roman numerals for all 12 hour markers, and the second time-zone display below is differentiated by the clean display of 12, 3, 6, and 9 only. Paired with the seductive platinum Tank Cintrée case with its long case sides, curved back and two faceted octagonal crowns with sapphire cabochons, this timepiece is a true marvel of finesse and design ingenuity.
Numbered 27 in a limited edition of only 50 pieces, and offered in attractive condition and accompanied by original certificate, the present example is a rare gem not to be missed by the discerning collectors.

In 2011, the RM030 collection marked a significant milestone for Richard Mille with its introduction of the automatic self-winding movement cal. RMAR1. The concept of an automatic movement is to wind the watch through the movements of the wearer. However, to avoid overwinding once the power is full, classic conventional systems utilize a sliding flange that could possibly introduce harmful debris into the winding barrel particularly when the wearer is highly active. This can adversely affect the watch’s chronometric performance.
After four years of extensive research and development, Richard Mille designed a new rotor that automatically declutches when the power reserve reaches 50 hours, and it re-engages when the power reserve decreases to 40 hours. This extraordinary technical achievement allows both the movement and the oscillator to maintain the best ratio of constant torque and power, resulting in optimal chronometric performance.
The current iteration of the RM030 is a limited edition of only 50 pieces created specifically for the Japanese market. Featuring a robust ATZ ceramic case made from aluminum oxide powder tubes, it was injected at a pressure of a whopping 2,000 bar. With the rigidity increased through the process, it is one of the hardest materials in the world comparable to diamond. Notably, ATZ ceramic is highly hypoallergenic and exhibits exceptional resistance to scratches, shocks, and abrasion, making it an ideal material for a watch case.
Fresh-to-the-market and the first time this reference has appeared in auction, the watch is very versatile especially when equipped with the Velcro strap. Further accompanied by its full set of accessories, the watch is no doubt a masterclass by Richard Mille showcasing how a perfect automatic movement should be made.

The DB28 model was introduced in 2010 and went on in 2011 to immediately win the Aiguille d’Or at the GPHG, the most important awards in the world of watches. This highlights how strongly De Bethune focuses on innovation – in fact, they repeated the feat winning again the prize in 2014 – and how their technical approach to watchmaking reverberates from the movement to the case, with details such as the crown at 12 o’ clock and the innovative “floating” lugs. Extremely well-received by collectors, the DB28 has become the “signature” piece from the firm.
Incredibly blue, visually striking and masterful products in contemporary horology, the present DB28 “Kind of Blue” is part of the elite circle. Featuring a striking heat blued grade 5 titanium case with an impressive mirrored-polish and the brand’s signature delta shaped bridge decorated coté de De Bethune, the hours are marked by arrow pointers in pink gold. The sense of detail can be found even on its pink gold back prong of the pin buckle. The blued balance wheel anchored by 6 white gold inserts of the calibre DB2115 animates this marvel. Featuring the brand’s signature spherical moon phase indication accurate to a degree of one lunar day every 122 years and the patented self-regulating twin barrel, triple pare-chute shock-absorbing system, the “Kind of Blue” has a power reserve of 6 days.
Nothing short of an excitement as always by Dennis Flageollet, the present example of the De Bethune DB28BTIBN is excellently preserved and is complete with its full set of accessories. This is a fantastic chance for admirers of innovative timepieces to acquire an award winning wristwatch from one of the most respected independent firms in the industry.

The concept of representing time in a circular manner has been prevalent since the invention of the chronometer. However, Urwerk challenges this traditional notion by presenting time in a linear fashion, inspired by the idea of drawing a straight timeline on a black page to mark “Past, Present, and Future”. This unique perspective stems from the fact that creating a movement that continuously rotates is much easier than developing one that follows a straight line and returns to zero. Prior to the launch of Urwerk’s collection, no one had successfully created a wristwatch with true retrograde linear displays.
In 2009, Urwerk introduced the King Cobra as a tribute to a Patek Philippe prototype designed by Louis Cottier, now housed in the Patek Philippe Museum. This homage to Cottier and its linear time display became the inspiration for the collection’s name “CC” (Cottier and Cobra).
Notably, Urwerk patented the world’s first linear and digital seconds display, showcased on the top dial of the timepiece. The hours are indicated by a straight line on the bottom dial, while the minutes are displayed through a line with hash marks positioned just above. When the minute marker reaches the red 60-notch, it jumps back to zero, and simultaneously, the hour “line” advances to the next hour.
The avant-garde AlTiN (Aluminium Titane Nitride) coating on the white gold case adds an intriguing and mysterious allure to the watch, while also providing a more scratch-resistant case. With its remarkable presence on the wrist, the watch is instantly recognizable from a distance, leaving observers in awe of its perfectly executed mechanical prowess. Limited to only 25 pieces, this timepiece further comes with its full set of accessories.

Controlled by an oversized crown positioned at 12 o’clock, the control board is located on the reverse side of the watch. It features a 43 hours power reserve indicator, a display of minutes and seconds for precise time-setting, and an adjustment screw that allows for fine-tuning,

Revived in 2008 from Glashütte Germany, the firm launched the inaugural model Benu, a reference to the resurrection of the immortal Bennu bird in ancient Egyptian mythology, and a symbol of the rebirth of the Moritz Grossmann manufacture.
The present Benu Backpage posits a challenge to the conventional architecture of a timepiece with its unique mirrored construction of the movement. What is normally seen from the back of a watch is proudly showcased on the blue semi-skeletonized dial. In the finest Glashütte tradition, the spectacular aesthetics of the mechanical movement can then be seen on the large dial aperture, with the most beautiful details such as the Grossmann balance, the hand-graved balance cock with stunning floral motifs, and the ratchet wheel with exquisite snailing prominently positioned on the left side of the dial. Once the watch is wound, the mechanical splendour of the oscillating balance wheel would not fail to leave the spectator in awe.
The stunning dial display on this watch is made possible by the in-house manual calibre 107.0, which manifests a reversal of direction in the mainspring barrel and the going train. The wheel train runs in the right direction in aid by the mirrored escapement and the mirrored oscillation system. On the back of the present Benu Backpage, a full German Silver plate with wide Glashütte ribbings, mounted with raised gold chatons and the signature transparent sapphire jewels, is displayed with the iconic Grossmann winder with pusher and stop seconds.
Numbered 5 of a limited series of 18 pieces, the present timepiece is offered in excellent condition, as well as accompanied with its full set of original accessories.

The mesmerizing guilloché dial of the present timepiece would not fail to enchant any spectator. Made in partnership with Comblémine SA, Kari Voutilainen’s dial manufacture located in Val-de-Travers, Switzerland, the exquisite guilloché is handmade by craftsmen with a rose lathe machine. As guilloché is an ancient art form that is only mastered by a few experts today, it is a joy to witness the magnificent handicraft. Resonating Voutilainen’s special flinqué motif, the sun ray pattern radiates from the subsidiary seconds and spans out across the dial, culminating a dazzling rippling effect. The green colour of the dial is a beautiful shade evoking the greenness of emerald or jade. Since the guilloché dial is treated with a special coating and polished to a radiant gloss, it turns into a dynamic interplay of subtle and iridescent hues of green depending on the lighting. The exquisite guilloché dial is framed by a brushed pink gold ring and a beautiful outer date ring with blue numbers.
Visible through the transparent caseback, the present timepiece is further powered by the brilliant in-house manual calibre 100.3 with top-notch finishings, that boasts 42 hours of power reserve and a frequency of 18,000 vph. Equipped with Mortiz Grossmann’s special crown-and-pusher mechanism, it is extremely user-friendly. The mechanism is designed to prevent dusts from entering the movement, and to avoid unintentional adjustment of the hands by pushing the crown back into place. Moreover, the stop-seconds mechanism can also be activated via the additional pusher below the crown, allowing for precise time-setting. The surrounding date-setting function is equally painless, and it can be set via a pusher at the 10 o’clock in either direction at any time of the day without hindering the movement. Offered in exceptional condition, and complete with its full set of accessories, the present bespoke piece from the collection of the original owner is truly an epitome of splendid craftsmanship, and a breathtakingly beautiful timepiece perfect for our tasteful collectors.

Dressed in a frosted golden finish, this is the LMX produced in a limited edition of just 33 pieces released in 2022. A legacy with a fresh steel exterior and brass dial of the award winning creation.
The battle-axe-shaped escapement bridge and gear-train components are visible as three large wheels placed next to each winding crown, two are set in motion when setting the time on the corresponding time display, while the gear at 6 o’clock is the common seconds’ wheel. Of particular note is the new bespoke13.4 mm balance wheel hovering above the dials and featuring inertia blocks that allow for a more precise regulation.
However, the star of the show is the incredibly captivating threedimensional spherical power reserve indicator (168 hours). Two markers are positioned on opposite sides of a hemisphere; one framed by an arched scale numbered 1 to 7, another with a scale showing the days of the week. This complex and completely novel interplay of components gives an additional level of intricacy, by the rotation of the entire power-reserve display itself. This allows wearers to choose their preferred mode of power-reserve indication: by continuing to wind the crown even after the power reserve is fully replenished, wearers can adjust the orientation of the indication in order to make the day-of-theweek or numeric scale more visible when LMX is on the wrist.
A true gem of horological design and technical prowess the present LMX in golden brass is numbered lucky 18 from the collection.

The identity of the first-ever Submariner watch has always been shrouded in myth and debate. Manufactured in 1953 and officially released at the 1954 Basel Fair, the Rolex ref. 6204 is widely recognized as the first official Submariner model made available to the general public. It boasted water resistance to a depth of 100 meters and featured a distinctive “Small Crown”, which has since become an icon amongst all vintage Rolexes. However, an alternative version of the story suggests that Rolex had been researching a more robust and thicker model, the ref. 6200, capable of withstanding water depth up to 200 meters. Originally intended as a heavy-duty tool watch for professional users, Rolex may have wanted to perfect the timepiece before its release, explaining why the ref. 6200 has a lower reference number than the ref. 6204.
Tailored for professional diving, the ref. 6200, often referred as the “Big Crown”, is the first and one of only three Submariner references to earn this nickname. Its oversized 8-millimeter “Brevet” crown enabled cutting-edge water resistance and enhanced usability in professional diving situations where it is easily accessible by gloves underwater. Among the various vintage Submariners, the most iconic variant is undoubtedly the one featuring an “Explorer” 3-6-9 dial for enhanced underwater visibility, just like the present watch.
Production numbers of the ref. 6200 “Explorer Submariners” were extremely limited, with serial numbers ranging from 31’.9xx to around
32’.2xx. Having a serial number of 32’212, the present watch possesses the silver “Submariner” script above 6 o’clock, making it particularly rare since most known examples of this variant do not bear any writing on the dial. Only a few correct examples in this configuration are known to exist, underscoring the exceptional rarity of this timepiece. Features the same silver “Submariner” printing on the dial, another notable example which was sold at Phillips’ The Geneva Watch Auction: XI, that was discovered in a souk on the streets of Cairo, Egypt, bears a case number 46 digits apart.
This reference 6200 ticks all the boxes for passionate collectors. With its generous 37.5mm diameter, it boasts an impressive case with thick bevels and exquisite proportions. The watch retains its original Brevet crown, and the dial has formed an attractive layer of patina on top of the lacquer, adding a unique charm and bearing witness to the watch’s history as a professional dive companion. This level of patina on the dial is impossible to replicate, and one can gaze upon it and imagine the various occasions this watch has ventured into.
Fresh-to-the-market, this watch was a gift from the original owner to the consignor, and it is exceptionally rare to see another example of the ref. 6200 resurface in the market. We are extremely honored to offer this historically significant Submariner reference, originally created for professionals, which showcases a highly sought-after and captivating “Explorer” 3-6-9 dial.

The Tudor Submariner has a rich history with the first reference 7922 introduced in 1954. It was followed by the reference 7928 in 1959, which marked the introduction of crown guards for Tudor’s Submariners, similar to the Rolex Submariner reference 5512 counterpart. The reference 7928 went through four generations of crown guards: Mark I or “square” crown guards, Mark II or “Eagle Beak” crown guards, Mark III or “pointed” crown guards, and Mark IV or rounded crown guards, which can be found on the present watch.
The present watch circa 1967 is one of the last batches of the reference 7928 before it was discontinued in the same period, making way for future Submariner references. The dial of this watch features an open chapter ring and modernized white text, creating a striking contrast against the beautiful matte dial. Unlike Rolex, Tudor Submariners have a curved line of text for “Self-Winding”, adding a charming element to the dial along with the Tudor rose and Gothic typography. The watch is also fitted with a Rolex crown and folded bracelet, sharing parts with its sister company.
In excellent overall condition, the watch retains its original proportions with thick lugs and nice beveling. The dial is also very well-preserved, with the luminous material having aged beautifully to a pumpkin hue over the years. Together with a blank guarantee, its rarity adds to its allure, making it a gem for vintage watch collectors and a valuable addition to any dive watch collection.

While the association between Rolex and Comex is widely known and well-documented, the connection between Rolex and the Genevabased nuclear research organization, CERN (Centre Européen de Recherche Nucléaire), is more discreet. Since the 1950s, the Milgauss lineup was specifically designed for CERN engineers and laboratory workers with the aim of creating a timepiece that could withstand strong magnetic fields.
In 1960, the ref. 1019 was introduced as the successor to the references 6541 and 6543. It enjoyed a relatively long production run of 28 years, making it one of the enduring models in the Rolex lineup. While this Milgauss retained its inner Faraday Cage to protect the movement from electromagnetic waves, the design also underwent a fresh and modern update, featuring a smooth bezel and a modified dial layout.
However, this particular example of the ref. 1019 takes things a step further with a highly unusual and distinctive appeal. In very limited quantities, some models were fitted with black inserts on the hour markers and hands instead of the usual luminescent material. This configuration, known as a “CERN” dial, is believed to have been created in collaboration with CERN and designed without tritium luminescence. This choice was made to avoid interference with sensitive radioactivity sensors in laboratory environments, making it a true “tool watch” in the Rolex watchmaking history.

The Rolex Cosmograph Daytona reference 6265, along with its sister reference 6263, was introduced to the market around 1969 and ceased production in the late 1980s. This series of model is distinguished by its water resistant screw-down pushers, which contribute to its “Oyster” designation on the dial. It is powered by caliber 727, which is a Rolex upgrade of the Valjoux caliber 72 and represents the final evolution of this movement. Starting from the late 1980s, with the introduction of reference 16520, Rolex began using a self-winding movement based on the Zenith El Primero in the Daytona, making the 6265 the last reference of manual-wound Daytona.
This particular watch is a highly exceptional example that encompasses all the desirable features one seeks in a Cosmograph Daytona. It retains the same steel bezel as the first Daytona reference 6239, with comparable aesthetics but numerous technical updates. Preserved in beautiful condition, it showcases the coveted silvered “Big Red” Daytona dial with only minor signs of aging, and all luminous markers are intact and perfectly match the hands. This watch is highly wearable and represents a timeless example for those seeking an iconic Cosmograph Daytona.

In 1970, Tudor debuted its first manual-wind chronograph – the illustrious Oysterdate ref. 7031/0. Clad in vivid hues with distinctive pentagonal hour markers, the watch immediately captivated aficionados. Its imposing 39mm case featured sculpted lugs and muscular lines unlike the more modest proportions of the era. The graphic dial, bold and unusual, was a daring gambit that proved immensely successful, earning enthusiastic acclaim.
The inaugural release comprised three sporty chronograph variations, each endowed with a unique bezel – the present example displays a black plexiglass insert. Their sophisticated yet athletic aesthetic spoke of refinement and vigor in equal measure. Identical dials combined cool grey, inky black registers, and a crisp white minute track. Unconventional luminous pentagon hour markers earned the “Home Plate” nickname among collectors for their resemblance to a baseball field. A final flourish was the uncommon 45-minute chronograph counter. Secured within 50-meter waterproof Rolex Oyster cases and screw-down crowns.
Highly sought after today, this example houses a manual-wind Valjoux 7734 movement with over 45 hours of reserve power. The caseback denotes “Original Oyster Case by Rolex Geneva” affirming its provenance. Preserved in outstanding condition, this cherished vintage chronograph is a treasure for discerning collectors who appreciate horological icons.

The Zenith El Primero is undoubtedly a legendary automatic chronograph movement introduced in 1969. It is renowned as one of the first automatic chronograph movements ever created, marking a significant milestone in the history of watchmaking. Not only was it designed to be highly accurate and precise, but it also represented a breakthrough in horology with its high frequency of 36,000 VPH. The El Primero caliber 3019PHC, in particular, is highly regarded for its exceptional quality and performance. Interestingly, the El Primero movement even served as the base caliber for Rolex’s first self-winding chronograph, which was used in the iconic Daytona reference 16520 introduced in 1988.
Amongst the vintage era, the round-shaped El Primero A386 is the most recognized reference. However, its sister reference, the A3817, is considered even rarer than the A386, with an estimated production of only 1,000 pieces. The case of the A3817 showcases angular and sculpted design elements that were popular during its production period, while the dial features a combination of colors, with subsidiary dials in blue, light grey, and anthracite. The subdial at 9 o’clock stands out with a unique blue hand and blue indexes, creating a subtle contrast against the light grey register. This vibrant dial design represented a departure from the more subdued aesthetics of the 40s and 50s, offering a modern and colorful look for sports watches.
The present example is exceptionally well-preserved, which is remarkable considering its age of over 50 years. The engraving “SP 1301” on the inner caseback refers to the casemaker Spillman, denoted by “SP”. It is also accompanied by its original “ZKM” endlinks and features the highly desirable original-styled Gay Frères ladder bracelet, stamped for the fourth quarter of 1971. With its exceptional condition and originality, this watch possesses all the qualities sought after by collectors, making it a highly collectible vintage Zenith timepiece.

Property from a Distinguished Collector 傑出私人收藏
In 1947, Omega created twelve Calibre 30 I tourbillon movements of only 30mm in diameter to run in the “wristwatch” category of the Geneva, Neuchatel and Kew-Teddington Observatory trials. In these movements, the tourbillons had a rotation rate of 7.5 minutes as opposed to the more habitual 60 seconds.
In these trials, manufacturers would submit one or several specially prepared movements for competition. Interestingly, these watches were never meant for sale, the purpose of these trials being not only competition but also a testing ground for research on chronometry and of course a marketing and communication tool for the manufacturer in selling their “regular production” watches.
Prior to being allowed to compete, entrants were tested, and those meeting the rigorous standards were eligible for actual competition. The watches were tested in 5 positions and 3 temperatures (4°C, 20°C and 30°C) for a period of 40 to 44 days. Each movement was graded on a performance scale and awarded a certificate with the final score and rating.
It is important to note that these movements did not have a particularly fine aesthetic finish but were technically the best of the best: the surfaces of pinions and wheels were highly polished with exceptionally
even tolerances, springs were pre-tested and hand chosen and the dimensions of shafts and bearings perfectly executed.
Out of twelve examples of the Calibre 30 I, only 7 examples participated in serveral observatory trails between 1947, 1950 and in 1952.
The project was leaded by Mr. J-P Matthey Claudet, watchmaker at Omega, and the movements were entirely hand made. Mr. Marcel Vuilleumier, director of the Horological School in the Vallee de Joux, was the master watchmaker that designed the Tourbillon caliber. To mention that movement number 10’595’933 achieved the remarkable score of 867.7 points in 1950. The highest result ever achieved in this category. The present example is the 2nd last tourbillon made and was tested at the Neuchatel Observatory in 1947, and further adjusted by Master regulateur Alfred Jacquard.
In 1987, seven of these twelve movements were discovered by Omega and entirely rebuilt, they were then cased in gold and silver livery and offered to a select group of collectors (like the present example).
The present watch, in superb condition, has been part of the same collection for over 35 years and can be considered as a truly “Holy Grail” for Omega collectors.

Very rarely seen on the market, the Flightmaster was the last collection in which Omega developed a mechanical movement specifically tailored for pilots. The dial of the Flightmaster may appear busy with seven hands, but Omega employed clever color manipulation to ensure optimal legibility for pilots in the flight cabin. Different colors were used to distinguish the various functions: orange for the chronograph, white for timekeeping, blue for the second time zone, and black for the inner rotating bezel. To enhance user-friendliness, similarly colored circular markings are found at the tips of the pushers as well.
Earlier versions of the Flightmaster utilized a Lemania-based calibre 911 movement, which was similar to the 1968 Speedmaster calibre 861 manual-wound chronograph but with the addition of a 12-hour GMT hand complication. The present lot, reference 145.013, represents a lesser-known variation with the calibre 910. The key difference is that the small seconds sub-dial has been replaced with a 24-hour AM/PM indication.
The particular example is very attractive and exceptionally wellpreserved. The dial has acquired a desirable “tropical” patina, aging to a rich milk chocolate color at the registers. It is rare to find such a well-preserved model on the market, making it an opportunity not to be missed for collectors who seek to acquire this short-lived reference from Omega.

Italy has always been a major supporter of Omega, being astute collectors and connoisseurs their relationship began when Louis Brandt & Frères entrusted Luigi Cesare Tallia for the distribution North of the country, while the South was managed by the Bandiera & Bedetti company in Rome. In 1921, Luigi Tallia teamed up with Turin businessman Roberto De Marchi, this marks the beginning of the long and prolific collaboration between the headquarters in Bienne and what will become the famous Fratelli De Marchi company in Turin that heavily stimulated the brand's presence in Italy.
To answer the love and support from the Italian collectors, Omega released exclusive models such as the Apollo-Soyuz ST 145.0022 in 1976, followed by the present Italy special in 1986 (ST 145.0022) and 1988 in two series (DD 145.0022).
Dressed with a touch of gold on the Speedmaster, it was an initiative to boost collector’s interest during the late 80s. It was a time where two-tone timepieces were trending. Featuring a 18K dot close to 70 yellow gold bezel contrasting with the stunning black dial, the sunken sub-dials shines in gold. The crown and pushers were crafted in plated gold. Produced in two series each in a limited edition of 500 pieces, the latter series were denoted by an “A” in front of the edition number on the caseback. The heart of the Speedmaster is the calibre 861.
Numbered 263 from the early first series limited edition, the present example retains its original warranty and box, its dial had further aged with an attractive warm mustard hue on the lumes.

Often referred to as “The Holy Grail” among collectors, the current timepiece is one of the most elusive models in the Speedmaster line. The ref. 376.0822 was manufactured for a mere two years, from 1987 to 1988. Notably, it is the first Speedmaster with an automatic movement, a day-date window, and a 24-hour indicator. It is also intriguing to observe that the introduction of the automatic movement coincided with its direct competitor, the Rolex Cosmograph Daytona.
Distinguishing features of this watch include a special centrally positioned 60-minute chronograph hand and a 24-hour indication. The crystal also boasts a special characteristic, with a metal minute track affixed to its inner edge, deviating from the typical stepped dial seen in other collections.
Despite an alleged limited production of around 2,000 watches, it is exceedingly rare to find an example with the correct bezel, dial, and hands. The luminescent material of the dial has aged uniformly, resulting in an appealing creamy hue. This vintage timepiece, cherished by its owner, is presented in an authentic state where it will be an important piece for any Speedmaster collections.

Introduced in 1988, the Rolex reference 16520 marked a significant milestone in the history of the Daytona. It represented a departure from Rolex’s tradition of using Valjoux manual movements, as they introduced the modified Zenith-based caliber 4030. The case was also increased to a modern 40mm size, and it was the first Daytona model to feature a sapphire crystal.
The Rolex reference 16520 with an “L” serial is a rare specimen from the early series of Zenith Daytonas. The first half of the “L” series is characterized by a 4-Liner dial and a bezel insert marked for 200 units per hour. However, in the later production of the “L” series, the watch features an updated 5-Liner dial and is fitted with a bezel insert marked for 400 units per hour.
This particular example belongs to the later series with five lines of text at the 12 o’clock position and serifs on the subsidiary dials. The 12-hour register features a highly sought-after “inverted 6” configuration. The bracelet is an early version without polished center links, which is correct for the period. The subsidiary dials have aged gracefully to a charming yellowish light brown tone, which complements the black dial. The combination of its unique features and rarity makes this 16520 a highly popular timepiece among collectors.

The 1988 Daytona marked a major milestone for Rolex, ushering in several firsts for the legendary chronograph line. It was the inaugural self-winding Daytona equipped with cal. 4030, based on a heavily modified Zenith El-Primero movement. Along with the groundbreaking new engine, the new Daytona’s case grew to a contemporary 40mm diameter and was fitted with a sapphire crystal, another first for the model.
This particular ref. 16528 exemplifies the extraordinarily rare “R” serial Daytona from 1988, among the very first batch ever fitted with the history-making self-winding caliber. Adding to its rarity is the early MK I bezel with its 200 unit graduation, later updated to 400 units. But the most coveted aspect is its Singer dial, made by the renowned dialmaker that Rolex collaborated with in the 1980s. With diamond indexes and the “inverted 6” in the subdial, this specific variant was made only for approximately one year, making it extraordinarily scarce and coveted. While later dials had 5 lines of text, these early Singer dials have just 4 lines lacking “ OFFICIALLY CERTIFIED “, marking them apart.
Offered in exceptionally well-preserved condition, the present watch exemplifies the most desirable and short-lived iteration of the groundbreaking Daytona.

Produced from 1989–2007, the Rolex GMT-Master II ref. 16710 succeeded its esteemed predecessor while retaining coveted aesthetic codes. Spanning a remarkable 18-year production run, subtle upgrades distinguished transitional variants. Early models featured Tritium luminosity like the present example, followed by Luminova and later Superluminova. Recently, demand for the ref. 16710 has surged among discerning collectors. Rolex issued it with three iconic bezel options: Pepsi, Coke, and all black. This provides appealing diversity for this reference.
With exceptional provenance, the present “Coke” bezel example previously belonged to Guido Mondani and was sold at Antiquorum Geneva’s “The Mondani Collection of Rolex Wristwatches” in 2006. It is also illustrated in Osvaldo Patrizzi’s renowned Rolex reference book, “Rolex, Collecting Wristwatches”, cementing its literary importance.
Further distinguishing this watch is its well-preserved condition, with sharp case edges and bevels. As its iconic red and black bezel remains unavailable from Rolex’s current ceramic bezel lineup, this reference holds significant collectible value. This landmark GMT-Master II represents Rolex at a pivotal moment transitioning to the modern era. With special provenance linking prestigious collections, it is sure to be a highlight for the astute Rolex enthusiast.

In 2005, Chronoswiss introduced the Digiteur MSA (Montre sans Aiguilles), which translates to “watch without hands” in English. This unique timepiece features a rectangular watch movement based on a NOS (New Old Stock) shaped-movement from FEF. FEF, founded by Jules Jéquier and David Louis Petitpierre in Fleurier, Val de Travers, Switzerland, in 1882, specialized in producing movement blanks. In 1920, their movement-blank division gained independence under the name “Fabrique d’ébauches de Fleurier (FEF).”
Chronoswiss founder, Mr. Gerd-Rüdiger Lang, known for his unwavering passion for mechanical timepieces, came across this extraordinary find and acquired its captivating contents for his Munich-based watchmaking company. However, to meet Chronoswiss’s exacting standards, the original caliber underwent meticulous modification and refinement.
With its enduring design and a time display limited to just 99 pieces in white gold, the Digiteur MSA is a truly remarkable addition to any collection. Complete with its accompanying accessories, this timepiece adds a touch of whimsy and fascination to the world of horology.

The Roger Dubuis chronograph H37 is a remarkable timepiece, particularly noteworthy as an early example produced before the brand’s acquisition by Richemont. Roger Dubuis, a skilled watchmaker who had previously worked for prestigious brands such as Patek Philippe and Longines, established his own workshop and launched his eponymous brand in 1995, in collaboration with Carlos Dias.
The H37 model is a visually stunning watch that exhibits remarkable attention to detail, sure to impress even the most discerning watch purists. The movement is based on the Lemania 2310 ébauche, which is also used in the renowned Patek Philippe reference 5070. Notably, the movement proudly bears the Geneva seal, a prestigious certification achieved by only a select few watchmakers, especially notable for an independent watchmaker at the time. The presence of the “Bulletin d’Observatoire” signature on the dial went a step further that this movement underwent accuracy testing at the Besançon Observatory, which held more stringent standards than the Contrôle Officiel Suisse des Chronomètres (COSC).
The chronograph pushers of the present H37 boast a flared finish, reminiscent of the design found on the Patek Philippe ref. 1463 “Tasti Tondi”. Also featuring an attractive sector dial with pulsations scale, giving it a vintage aesthetic and paying tribute to the rare pulsations scale used by doctors in the past. Limited to 28 pieces and offered in excellent overall condition, this watch is highly desirable for lovers and collectors of fine chronograph wristwatches.

Roger Dubuis first embarked on his horological journey in the 1950s, working at Longines in their after-sales department and then moving to Patek Philippe as a master watchmaker in their complications department. With a wealth of experience in repairing numerous complications, Dubuis ventured out on his own in 1980, establishing his own atelier. In 1995, he released his first collection, with the Sympathie standing out as some of his most charismatic and significant creations.
The Sympathie case design is a groundbreaking departure from traditional shapes, neither fully round nor square. It strikes a balance between the two, with stepped bezels and elegantly curved elongated lugs. In an industry where the case shapes variations are very limited, Roger Dubuis introduced a truly innovative design with the Sympathie.
The time-only piece represents the purest expression of the Sympathie design, stripping it down to its essential components. The pink gold applied hour markers, pink minute track, and plots create an appealing contrast against the deep black glossy surface, resulting in a well-balanced appeal.
Powering the watch is the calibre 57, a Lemania based ébauche. However, the movement bears the prestigious Seal of Geneva and was regulated by Roger Dubuis himself. During the time of production, only Patek Philippe movements carried the Geneva Seal, which is why Dubuis deemed it crucial to have the same mark of quality on his timepieces.

Accompanied by Patek Philippe travel pouch and slip case. Further delivered with the Patek Philippe Extract from the Archive confirming the date of manufacture of the present timepiece in 1990 with a matte black ribbed dial, applied white gold hour markers and its subsequent date of sale on 14th August, 1991.
A potential glimpse into the rarefied world of Patek Philippe’s private commissions, this remarkable ref. 3900 stands as the second known example crafted in precious 18K white gold that has surfaced on the auction market. While traditionally produced in stainless steel, yellow gold and platinum, our research indicates the possibility that the present ref. 3900 was a confidential custom order for an undisclosed client.
Unlike the inaugural example in white gold sold at Phillips’ Hong Kong Watch Auction Eight in Spring 2019, which was adorned with diamond hour markers, the present example carries gold luminous indices that have aged beautifully and developed an attractive patina. Its dial is a mesmerizing matte black ribbed dial, and its white gold case still retains crisp hallmarks.
Patek Philippe’s Extract from the Archives verifies the configuration of the present timepiece, and its year of production and subsequent sale date – certifying the watch’s complete originality. Fresh-to-the-market, this white gold ref. 3900 in phenomenal condition is without doubt a magnificently rare find that offers collector’s a chance to acquire a possibly privately commissioned Patek Philippe Nautilus.

An eclectic era, the seventies never stops to amaze where beautiful, stand out designs populate the decade. From the Patek Philippe Nautilus, the Vacheron Constantin 222 and the Audemars Piguet Royal Oak that dominates the modern taste of sports luxury watches, to the extravagant designs like the Piaget Polo, Rolex King Midas all with one thing in common, integrated bracelets. And perhaps for a few of those icons the household name Gerald Genta, including the present Audemars Piguet ‘Cobra’.
Coined with the venomous nickname by collectors with its flashy design, the Audemars Piguet Ref. 5403 was introduced in 1971, a sibling of the Royal Oak ref. 5402 that transformed into a scale-like appearance. Flawlessly comfortable, Genta took integrated bracelet to the next level. Designed with seamlessness and single entity in mind, Genta described it as “magnificent and perfect integration”. The bracelet is composed of ten, very thick polish-mesh links gradually widened to embrace the dial.
The present ‘Cobra’ is born in white gold and features an iconic sunburst blue dial bedazzled with diamond-indexes. Preserved in stunning condition, the dial also bears the early Audemars Piguet signature and a cursive Automatic designation that can be found on early production of the timepieces. This beauty was born in 1974 confirmed by the Audemars Piguet Extract from the Archives. Fatally attractive and fitting for those who welcomes attention on the wrist, this would be a must have in your collection.

Accompanied by Franck Muller certificate stamped Sincere Watch Ltd, Singapore dated 3 June 1999.
At the dawn of his watchmaking career, Franck Muller embraced subtle designs belying the daring, avant-garde pieces that would later define his eponymous brand. His early work restoring some of horology’s rarest and most complicated vintage watches informed this restrained aesthetic. Franck Muller was part of a vanguard of young independent watchmakers in the 1990s, alongside disruptive figures like Vianney Halter and Daniel Roth, who struck out on their own. In 1991, Franck Muller founded his manufacture, soon to become renowned for audacious, cutting-edge timepieces.
This yellow gold triple calendar chronograph from circa 1999 represents Franck Muller’s early embrace of classical proportions, at 36mm diameter. The dial distinguishes itself through stunning blue star-set hour markers, evoking the spirit of the celebrated “Jean-Claude Killy” Rolex Datocompax references made from the 1940s-1960s.
Within beats the manual-wind Franck Muller cal. 1870, based on the legendary Lemania cal. 1872 found across important vintage chronographs. The renowned movement specialist Lemania gained fame for supplying chronograph calibers to the industry’s elite, most notably Omega’s iconic Speedmasters.
Preserved in excellent condition with light oxidation lending an alluring aged charm, this rare Master Calendar Chronograph encapsulates Franck Muller’s beginnings – a subtle elegance before the bold designs that followed. For collectors, it carries particular significance as a transitional model and a link to Lemania’s esteemed chronograph legacy.

Though the Excelsior Park name may not resound in horological circles today, their history stretches back to 1866 when Jules-Frederic Jenneret established the firm in St. Imier, Switzerland. Passing through generations of the Jenneret family, the “Excelsior” trademark emerged in 1911 under Henri Jeanneret-Brehm. Augmenting it to “Excelsior Park” for English speakers, the brand was renowned for supplying chronographs and stopwatches to eminent maisons like Gallet, Girard-Perregaux and Zenith.
Despite postwar success, the quartz crisis proved devastating and Excelsior Park went bankrupt in 1983. The present timepiece was part of a small production of watches made by the brand sometime during the late 1980s, when the brand was temporarily revived by a group of investors for a short period of time. Resurrected again in 2021 by industry veteran Guillaume Laidet, Excelsior Park preserves its heritage of producing chronographs and in-house calibers.
This enigmatic split-seconds chronograph distinguishes itself with a pristine white dial and elegant Breguet hands. Flaunting vintage allure with modern appeal, a sapphire display caseback reveals the legendary Venus cal. 179 – powering icons like the Breitling Duograph and Panerai Radiomir split-seconds.
Strictly limited to 15 pieces, this Excelsior Park split-seconds chronograph is offered in excellent condition as number 09. A rare time capsule reviving a fallen legend of Swiss watchmaking.

The Rolex Cosmograph ref. 6265 made its debut around 1971 and remained in production until 1988. Designed as a tool watch for race drivers, this reference was primarily cased in stainless steel due to its versatility and popularity. However, a limited number of examples were also produced in 18k or 14k yellow gold. Despite the reference being in production for nearly two decades, approximately 2,000 pieces were cased in gold only.
Starting in the early 1980s, gold versions began featuring an engraved movement number on the plate behind the balance wheel. This change was likely related to the officially certified chronometer movement for their gold pieces. During this period, Rolex also modified the dial layout exclusively for the gold versions, incorporating the “Superlative Chronometer Officially Certified” designation on the dial.
The present Rolex Cosmograph ref. 6265 in 18K yellow gold, with a serial number in the 7.4 million from circa 1983 showcases a stunning champagne dial. This gorgeous example boasts a clean dial that complements the well-preserved gold bezel and case. All the components are period-correct, making it a rare gem among vintage Rolex Daytona timepieces. It no doubt deserves recognition for its place in the history of the Daytona collection.

WMT (WATCH EXPERIMENTAL UNIT) The Unique Set
Throughout the 20th century, Cartier has imagined some of the world’s most fantastical, intricate, creative and exquisite creations ever imagined by any Maison. Cartier was arguably the arbiter of taste, setting and spearheading trends and bringing artistic movements to the wider public eye.
Throughout this period, the Far East has always played a pivotal role in Cartier’s design language, so much so that Cartier and the Baur Foundation Museum of Far Eastern Art co-curated a historical exhibition in 2015 called Asia Imagined in the Baur and Cartier Collections. The fruit of the exhibition was a reference book and tome – Asia Imagined – exploring the symbiotic relationship between Far Eastern culture and Cartier’s creations.
The marriage between The Far East and Cartier had started already in 1907 – with Cartier producing jewelry and objects Japan. But it was not until the 1920s that Asia-mania hit La Maison, when Jules Glaenzer travelled to China – then known as Cathay, where he visited Shanghai and Hong Kong.
The 1920s was an incredible and exceptional period – a time of economic expansion and widespread growth in the arts, literature, architecture and design. With the economic crash in 1929 and the Great Depression that followed, a sense of uncertainty filled the vacuum created by the economic downturn. As a result, luxury jewelry houses and watch manufactures tried to encourage spending by introducing exquisitely decorated objects inspired by all walks of life, conjuring images of glamour, exoticism including India, Egypt, and most of all, Asia. As women sought to expand their social and economic freedom gained during the war years, a hunger for novelty, luxury and frivolity became widespread, with jewelry and objets d’art being the perfect expression of their newfound freedom and a means of escape. There became a fascination with the Far East, which was stimulated by accounts of artists travellers visiting these regions, and clocks were the perfect outlet for these creative pursuits.
The Far East manifested itself through Cartier’s choice of exotic stones. Materials such as nephrite, onyx, coral, rock crystal, lapis lazuli were set alongside traditional gemstones such as diamonds, sapphires, emeralds and rubies. Each design was more fantastical than the next.
Not just content with reproducing typical design motifs, Cartier delved deep and made use of cultural references, drawing inspiration from traditional Chinese folklore, metaphors, symbols, and even recreated scenes from poetry and literature. This is proof that the jeweler was not simply taking “eastern” designs and repackaging them for a foreign market, à la “chinoiserie”. Instead, they made a concerted effort to integrate East Asian culture in their works in a truly profound way, perhaps as a means to also penetrate the local market.
Oftentimes, Cartier even integrated existing and important ancient or 20th century objects into their repertoire, breathing new life in these pieces.
Nephrite, most commonly known as jade, was the preferred material for Cartier to showcase their undulating creativity. A culturally and spiritually important stone, Jade is also known as the “ stone of heaven ” and symbolises good luck, fortune, prosperity – and in some cases, even immorality. Most often occurring in green, white and purple, nephrite is a hard stone that can be carved and shaped into any artisan’s desire. Due to its hardness, very intricate design can be carved into jade, and its translucency serves as the perfect canvas to set with gemstones, imagining traditional scenes of lore and poetry.
Cartier had delved deep into the traditional eastern metaphors and symbolism when executing their creations. While sources of inspiration were boundless, certain important symbols were often repeated in the creation process; not only due to their aesthetic intricacy, but also their symbol meaning which elevated the status of the object. One important motif is the dragon. Traditionally in Eastern Cultures, the dragon is an immensely powerful and omnipresent being. Not only the symbol of royal power, the dragon is also a source of fortune, intelligence and power. It has been imbued in history, having already been unearthed during neolithic discoveries in China. Cartier reimagined this sacred symbol by adorning it with precious materials. Dragons feature heavily on Cartier clocks, jewelry and objects, coiling and unfurling with all their glory and beauty.
Another imperative source of inspiration was Chinese folklore, poetry literature. A deep understanding of Chinese culture and literature was imperative in executing these designs; much more so than simply recreating designs and symbols. Cartier took inspiration from Tang poetry, scripture, Buddhism and art, among many others.
The following clocks are all representative of Cartier’s genius and display the influence of the Far East in their creations during the Art Deco era, showcasing what Cartier does best: merging exquisite design with technical superiority, and always pushing the status quo. They are each historically important, being an indelible part of not only Cartier’s, but horology’s history.
環顧二十世紀,卡地亞創造過部分世上最具魅力、精緻、創意豐富和
精美絕倫的作品,而其他高級珠寶品牌可謂望塵莫及。
當時得令的卡地亞無疑是定調品位的先鋒,帶領潮流, 將藝術運動推廣到公眾視野。
在這段時期,遠東在卡地亞的設計語言中一直扮演著至關重要的角色,乃至 卡地亞和鮑氏東方藝術館於 2015 年歷史性合辦展覽,名為《夢徊亞洲―鮑 氏東方藝術館與卡地亞典藏》。其中衍生的成果包括參考書和專書《夢徊亞 洲》,探索遠東文化與卡地亞創作之間的共生關係。
卡地亞與遠東可謂一拍即合,關係早於 1907 年萌芽。當時,卡地亞在日本製 造珠寶和各類產物,但直到 1920 年代,亞洲熱潮才正式席捲卡地亞:其時的 品牌主席 Jules Glaenzer 遊歷中國(當時稱為契丹),造訪過上海和香港。
1920 年代是難得的特殊時期:經濟增長,以至藝術、文學、建築和設計等百 業騰飛。然而,隨著 1929 年的經濟崩潰和尾隨的大蕭條,箇中下滑造成的 真空期令世界充滿種種不穩。因此,奢侈珠寶店和製錶商試圖通過引入受到 各國文化啟發的精美裝飾品來鼓勵消費,頌揚異國情調,聚焦印度、埃及, 以至亞洲的魅力。當女性在經歷戰爭後獲取了更多的社交和經濟自由,自然 對於豪華瑰麗的高級奢侈品產生好奇與渴求,珠寶和藝術品不單是展示她 們表達自由的方式,更成為了她們逃避現實的方法。不少藝術家和旅行家到 訪遠東地區後作出多樣陳述,而歐洲對遠東的著迷亦應運而生,正正令鐘錶 搖身一變成為承載東方美學的完美工藝。
遠東風情通過卡地亞所選的異國寶石表露無遺,媒材如軟玉、縞瑪瑙、 珊瑚、岩晶、青金石與鑽石、藍寶石、祖母綠和紅寶石等傳統西方寶石互相 輝映,設計青出於藍,如夢似幻。
卡地亞對於重現典型的設計圖案並不滿足,於是更深入地挖掘各類文化參 考,從傳統的中國民間故事、隱喻、象徵等著手,蒐羅靈感,甚至重新展示詩 詞歌賦的場景,由此證明品牌不只是將「東方設計」重新包裝成專為外國市 場而設的產品(如同「中國風」)。相反,他們努力將東亞文化融入創作
之中,以打入當地市場為目標。與此同時,卡地亞甚至將現存的重要古代或 二十世紀物件糅合到作品之中,賦予其全新生命。
軟玉,泛稱為玉,貴為卡地亞的首選媒材,靈活展示品牌起伏多樣的創意。 在文化和靈性層面上,玉被視為極其重要的石種,也被稱為「天堂之石」, 象徵好運、財富、繁榮,在特殊情況下甚至寓意不朽。軟玉主要劃分為綠色、 白色和紫色,也是一種硬石,易於雕塑,有助工匠達成理想成品。鑑於玉石 的堅硬程度,工匠可在玉上雕刻任何精細設計,而玉石的透明度更可化為 完美畫布,配合寶石鑲嵌,呈現古老的傳說和詩歌場景。
創作期間,卡地亞鑽研多種傳統的東方隱喻和象徵。儘管靈感來源豐富無 窮,部分重要元素經常在創作過程中反覆出現;不僅基於箇中的複雜美學, 更是考慮到其文化意韻,有助提升產品地位。最重要的圖案之一正是龍: 在東方文化中,龍是極其強大並且無所不在的生物,既是皇族的權力象徵, 也是財富、智慧和力量的來源;龍的蹤影亦融合在歷史長流之中,早見於中 國新石器時代的出土文物。因此,卡地亞對此重新構想,並以珍貴媒材搭配 裝飾。這一神聖象徵廣泛出現在卡地亞時鐘、珠寶和精品上,以龍蟠虎踞形 式呈現,為產品倍添魅力。
另一重要靈感來源是中國民間故事、詩歌和文學。要執行以上設計,透切了 解中國文化和文學實在不可或缺,遠遠超過流於片面的設計元素重現。芸芸 靈感泉源之中,卡地亞主要從唐詩、經文、佛教和藝術等方面入手。
以下時鐘均是盡展卡地亞匠心獨具的代表,彰顯了遠東在裝飾藝術時代出 品的影響,也顯露卡地亞的專長:將精緻設計與卓越技術合而為一,精益求 精,不斷突破界限。每件時計歷史意義同等深遠,既是卡地亞的歷史,更是 鐘錶史上不可磨滅的重要部分。
CARTIER
A unique, historically important and exquisite marble, silver, lapis lazuli, nephrite, coral, mother-of-pearl, enamel and jade “water clock” with original presentation box 933.
Property of a Gentleman 紳士私人收藏
One of the most significant horological rediscoveries of the 21st century, the present Water Clock by Cartier, crafted of marble, silver, lapis lazuli, nephrite, coral, mother-of-pearl, enamel and jade, is a study in ingenuity, precision and sheer creativity. Having originally appeared on the market three decades ago, its reappearance at auction marks an important – and auspicious – moment within the history of horology. So rare are these clocks that a cursory search does not yield many results; in fact further research reveals that only one bearing the chimera was ever made.
The Cartier water clock, also known as “La Pendule Magnétique” is among the most exotic and prestigious creations by La Maison. Made by Maurice Couet who established the Cartier horological workshop at 30 rue Lafayette in Paris in 1919, it is the most sophisticated of all clocks, along with hallowed Mystery Clock model.
Between 1927 and 1930, Maurice Couet manufactured only one of the Chimera water clock. This creation may well constitute the apex and pinnacle of Cartier’s production, representing the golden years of its creativity.
So important is the present specimen that it is explicitly written about in The Cartier Collection: Timepieces by Franco Cologni and François Chaille – the official tome by Cartier for their extensive archives. Regarding Water Clocks and this very timepiece, they write,
“Maurice Coüet appliqua ce dispositif dans les trois pendules magnétiques qu’il fabriqua. Deux reprenaient le motif de la tortue, dont celle qui appartient aujourd’hui à la Collection, avec tortue en écaille, cuvette en argent et socle en marbre. La plus précieuse des trois, datée de 1929, longtemps disparue et dont on ne connaissait qu’une photographie d’archives, réapparut en 1990 dans une vente à New York : une chimère en jade à yeux d’émeraude et langue d’émail rouge se penche sur une coupelle – pièce chinoise du XVIIIe siècle, en jade elle aussi -, alors qu’une petite tortue en écaille (à l’origine il s’agissait d’un motif en forme de feuille) fait son tour”
An English translation states the following, “Maurice Coüet applied this mechanism within three magnetic clocks he fabricated. Among them, two featured the turtle motif, including the one that currently belongs to the Collection, with a tortoiseshell turtle, a silver basin and a marble base. The most precious of the three clocks, dated 1929, which had long been missing and only known through a photograph from the archives, reappeared in 1990 at auction in New York: a jade chimera with emerald eyes and a red enamel tongue perched on the rim of a dish – an 18th century Chinese piece, also made of jade – while a small tortoiseshell turtle (originally, designed as a leafshaped motif) makes its round.”
As such, it means that Cartier itself confirms that of all the Watch Clock designed and fabricated in the 20th century, the present one is the most precious and important of all, having been found in 1990s and disappearing ever since. This sentiment is further repeated in the tome Cartier by Hans Nadelhoffer, who describes this very piece as being “La version la plus raffinée” – “the version most refined”.

CARTIER
A unique, historically important and exquisite marble, silver, lapis lazuli, nephrite, coral, mother-ofpearl, enamel and jade “water clock” with original presentation box
The mechanism itself is operated by a simple magnetic field set that is placed between concealed magnets in the case and in the carp fish, drawing them around the shallow water filled bowl, past the gold, coral, mother-of-pearl and enamel chapters to indicate the time.
While it has been said that the mechanism of this clock was inspired by Nicolas Grollier de Servière, the famous clockmaker of Lyon, the mechanism of this clock actually operates on the same principle as the “South Pointing Fish” compass invented by the Chinese in 1040AD. By the 11th century, the Chinese military used both the wet and dry compass for navigational and maritime activities. The so-called “southpointing fish” was in fact a wooden fish which had a magnetized iron needle that floated in a bowl of water. Later, a dry compass version evolved in the shape of a turtle. Lodestone was fixed on the body of the fish and was balanced on a bamboo needle, which allowed it to rotate freely.
While Cartier’s Water Clocks usually featured a turtle to indicate time, in this instance, the fish has been painstakingly created to indicate the hours and minutes (rather than the turtle, as previously noted in literature). In fact, in traditional Culture, these two creatures are interchangeable, and both were used as direction indicators in traditional compasses.
Of all the Water Clocks to have come to the market, the present example is the most lavishly designed one to exit the Cartier workshops. The base is crafted of marble, while lapis lazuli and aventurine accents stud the base. The basin itself is a Chinese creation from the 18th century. Crafted out of nephrite, a Chimera coils around the basin, like a large cat perched on the rim, ready to pounce and catch its prey. In Chinese imagery, the dragon and fish are often depicted together, symbolizing potent and auspicious powers, particularly with control over water. The Chimera, also known as the Qilin, is an auspicious creature in Far Eastern Mythology, said to bring good luck, fortune and wisdom. Furthermore, the hour indexes are made of lacquer.
So important is this Water Clock that the design gouache from the Cartier Archives is also illustrated in Asia Imagined – the tome based on the historical exhibition of Cartier pieces, co-curated with the Baur Foundation. It is the missing link within the book – important enough to be prominently illustrated, but its whereabouts unknown during the physical exhibition and only rediscovered on the international auction market today.
Without a doubt one of the most important objects ever created by Cartier, the appearance of this Water Clock is an event to be celebrated by connoisseurs and scholars alike. A dream come true for many, it presents a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for collectors to acquire a trophy – the very best, of the rarest complication ever created by Cartier.

在二十一世紀最重要的鐘錶復興中,這款來自卡地亞的水鐘堪稱智慧、精確 度和極致創意的結晶品,由大理石、銀、青金石、軟玉、珊瑚、珍母貝、琺瑯 和翡翠製成。
這個水鐘三十年後再現拍賣市場,標誌著鐘錶史上一個重要且榮耀的時刻。
此水鐘極為罕見,只有從書籍作更深入的研究,它的歷史方才有跡可尋。
根據我們的研究,當前拍品是唯一刻有玉雕麒麟的水鐘。
卡地亞水鐘,又稱 La Pendule Magnétique(中譯:磁浮座鐘),實屬品牌最 頂級的創作之一。該水鐘由莫里斯.古艾(Maurice Couet)於 1919 年在巴黎 老佛爺大街三十號建立的卡地亞鐘錶工作室製作,可算是最精緻的時鐘 之一,與隱密的「秘鐘」(Mystery Clock)款式並駕齊驅。在 1927 至 1930 年 期間,古艾只製作了一個玉雕麒麟磁浮座鐘,體現了卡地亞的創作巔峰, 代表其饒富創意的黃金年代。
對於以上的重要現存範例,卡地亞在官方文獻中亦有所提及,其中由 Franco Cologni 和 François Chaille 撰寫的《卡地亞典藏系列:時計》(The Cartier Collection: Timepieces)明確地指出有關水鐘和相關特別款式的典故:
「古艾將上述機構套入三個磁浮座鐘,當中兩個配備龜形圖案,其中目前的 館藏搭載擁有真龜甲的龜形小偶、銀盤和大理石底座,而最珍貴的款式產 於1929年,一直下落不明,只在文獻庫僅餘的照中記載。該座鐘於1990年 在一場紐約拍賣中重現市場,搭載玉雕的麒麟,而麒麟擁有祖母綠眼睛和紅 色琺瑯舌頭,躍立在盤邊;該盤也是來自十八世紀的中國產物,同樣由玉石 製成。同時,鐘上還有一個搭載真龜甲的龜形小偶(原本設計為葉形圖案) 繞著運行。」
以上引文因此意味著卡地亞的官方認證:在芸芸二十世紀的鐘錶出品中,當 前拍品最為彌足珍貴,但自 1990 年代被發現後便不見蹤影。在卡地亞品牌 著作中,Hans Nadelhoffer 再次強調如此情感,描述這件作品為「La version la plus raffinée」(中譯:最精緻的版本)。水鐘的結構由放置在鐘殼和鯉魚 之間的隱藏磁盤操作,使它們繞著裝滿淺水的盤轉動,經過金、珊瑚、珍母 貝和琺瑯製的時標以顯示時間。
雖然有人指出這個鐘的機構受到里昂著名製錶師 Nicolas Grollier de Servière 的啟發,然而水鐘的機構卻是按照 1040 年由中國發明的「指南魚」 原理運作。十一世紀前,中國軍隊使用乾濕指南針進行導航和海上活動。 所謂的「指南魚」實際上是一枚魚形木塊,配有磁性鐵針,飄浮在一碗水 之中。後來,以上版本進化至乾式指南針,並以龜形小偶點綴。磁石固定在 龜身之上,並在一根竹針上平衡,使它可以自由旋轉。
卡地亞的水鐘常以龜為指針,而在當前例子中,品牌以一條精心設計的魚 來顯示小時和分鐘(並非如先前文獻所述的龜)。事實上,在傳統文化中, 以上兩種生物可以互換,均被用作傳統指南針的指示工具。環顧所有曾亮 相市場的水鐘,此拍品最為奢華,也是卡地亞最精美絕倫的設計。其底座由 大理石製成,並以青金石和砂金石點綴。水盤本身來自十八世紀中國製造。 水鐘的麒麟以玉製成,尾巴繞碗而盤,就像大貓留守邊緣,準備撲向牠的獵 物。在中國的意象中,魚、龍經常並置描繪,寓意強大力量和如意吉祥,尤其 針對有關水的掌控。麒麟是遠東神話的吉祥物,據說可以帶來好運、財富和 智慧。此外,時標由亮光漆製成。
這款水鐘如此重要,其中來自卡地亞文獻庫的水彩畫設計草圖也在《夢徊 亞洲》展覽中展示,而該展覽聚焦卡地亞歷史展品,與鮑氏東方藝術館共同 策劃。它是書內滄海遺珠:縱使正身在展覽期間無跡可尋,它仍以設計插圖 形式出現,其重要程度不言而喻。時至今日,水鐘終於在國際拍賣市場再次 亮相。
毫無疑問,此水鐘是卡地亞有史以來最重要的創作之一,其出現已是一個值 得鑑賞家和鐘錶學者普天同慶的時刻。這是卡地亞最為罕見的頂級複雜機 構,為不少藏家提供了千載難逢的機會,將極品納入典藏,造就一個夢想成 真的時機。

A unique and historically significant jade panel and yellow gold table clock set with emeralds, pearls, rubies and sapphires, carved landscape after Dong Bang Da’s landscape painting with Imperial poem written by Qing Dynasty Emperor Qianlong, 8 day movement by European Watch & Clock Co. Inc and engraved wooden stand
Property of a Gentleman 紳士私人收藏
The highly decorated jade panel serves as the backdrop, with clouds, mountains, water and a sampan carved into the hardstone. The carved blue sapphires represent the clouds, the carved emeralds are the leaves, and the rubies are part of the willow trees. Pearls are sprinkled throughout the landscape, conjuring flowers on the trees. Even a small pagoda is present, with the top made of yellow gold. On the upper left of the jade panel is an 8 day open face watch, powered by European Watch & Clock Co. Inc, that is encircled by dragons. The use of the five-clawed dragons are especially fitting here, as it accompanies a poem composed by Emperor Qianlong himself. In Chinese cultural imagery, the dragon is a symbol of the emperor, the almighty leader who mediated between Heaven and Earth and is often depicted rising from clouds and waves, symbolizing fortune and prosperity. The panel itself is intricately carved, showcasing Cartier’s unparalleled eye for detail and precision.
Even the wooden stand has been finished to perfection, with chimera figures holding up the jade plaque. The Chimera, a curious mix between a lion and dragon, is known as a powerful protector in Asian culture, shielding against evil influences and welcoming prosperity.
While Cartier created this timepiece in the 1920s, it was nonetheless inspired and enlightened by China’s illustrious imperial past. It is our understanding that the present jade plaque is an original table screen possibly from the 18th or 19th century, with the engravings done during this period. The carved gemstones were added in the art deco period by Cartier. In Chinese culture, table screens were placed on desks of officials and scholars as a means of contemplation, serving as sources of inspiration for reflection. One can only imagine the client who had commissioned this timepiece and his or her link to China’s imperial past.
Having first appeared on the market three decades ago, this historically significant clock will most likely remain hidden and cherished again for many years to come. Its public sale at auction offers a unique chance to acquire not only an intricate and beautiful piece of horological history, but also a historically significant piece imbued with the values of Chinese culture.

An exquisite piece of art, the present jade table clock by Cartier is an exceptional work like no other, showcasing a beautifully carved landscape inspired by a small ink and brush painting Flying Spring on the Stone Wall, No. 2 of a series of 8 landscape paintings (山水小幅· 其二·石壁飛泉) by the painter Dong Bang Da ( 董邦達). Dong Bang Da was Emperor Qianlong’s imperial court painter and his oeuvre was much treasured by Emperor Qianlong who frequently showed his appreciation by composing poems inspired by the subject of his paintings.
While in the painting, the poem by Emperor Qianlong was inscribed in calligraphy, here, the same imperial poem is carved on the jade panel:
阜平水簾洞,路遙未遊目。 石壁善爭長,雨後都懸瀑。
The poem can also be understood in English as the following:
Fu Ping Water Curtain Cave, the road is far away before you can see it. The towering height of the stone wall, and waterfalls hanging after the rain.

EMPEROR QIANLONG (1711–1799)
One of the longest-reigning monarchs in history as well as one of the longest-lived, Qianlong is widely considered the most illustrious and successful emperors of the Qing Dynasty.
Qianlong ascended the throne in 1735. Not only a highly successful military leader, he was a patron of the arts. Under his reign, culture flowed throughout China. He not only sponsored the compilation of the Complete Library of the Four Treasuries, the largest collection ever made of Chinese history, but also funded programs for the benefit of art, crafts, literature and culture-building activities.
In 1796, Qianlong abdicated the throne after 60 years of ruling, out of respect towards his grandfather, the Kangxi Emperor. His reign is characterized by successful civilian governance and prosperous military achievements. Qianlong oversaw the High Qing era – the apex of the dynasty’s power, influence, and prosperity. Throughout his 60 year rulership, the Chinese empire had the largest population and economy in the world.
Of all of China’s ruling Emperors, objects and artwork associated with Qianlong have without a doubt become one of the most highly collectible items amongst connoisseurs due to the Emperor’s association with prosperity, power and wisdom. An imperial seal – one among hundreds owned by Qianlong – has once been sold at auction for a staggering 22 million USD and is proof of the nation’s frenzy and respect for the long reigning Emperor.
DONG BANG DA (1699–1769)
Born in Fuyang in ZheJiang and a highly decorated court painter and calligrapher, Dong Bang Da 董邦達 was the imperial court painter during the Qing Dynasty. During his illustrious career, he eventually became the Minister of the Ministry of Rites and was given the posthumous title “Wen Ke”. He is perhaps best known for creating landscape scene paintings of nature, which were accompanied by imperial poems composed by Emperor Qianlong.
The poem engraved on the jade plaque praises the towering height of the stone wall of Fu Ping’s Water Curtain Cave, along with the waterfalls that hang after the rain. Fu Ping County is, still to this day, famous for its magnificent scenery and, in particular its waterfalls, one of which, the Water Curtain Cave, was captured by Dong Bang Da in his painting and, which in turn, inspired Emperor Qianlong to compose the accompanying poem contrasting the powerful magnificence of the stone cliff with the graceful movement of the waterfall after the rain.

座鐘以純淨溫潤的白玉板作為背景,雲、山、水和小船均被精細雅緻地雕刻 在硬玉材之上。藍寶石雕刻代表雲,翡翠雕刻標誌樹葉,紅寶石雕刻則是柳 樹的一部分。整個風景由珍珠點綴,恰如樹上的花朵;玉雕的左下方更有一 座小塔,頂部由黃金製成。白玉板的左上方展示兩枚被御龍環繞的錶面,其 八日機芯由歐洲鐘錶公司所生產。座鐘選用的五爪御龍尤其恰當, 呼應了乾隆皇帝的御詩。在中國文化意象中,龍是皇帝的象徵,更是統領 天下的全能領袖;龍經常被描繪為飛龍在天或蛟龍戲水之勢,寓意財富和
繁榮。雕鐫精巧的白玉板,盡顯卡地亞精緻高雅的卓越設計,一貫品牌對細 節的執著。
隨附的雕刻木架,同樣獨具匠心,由麒麟木雕支撐玉盤。麒麟是結合獅子與 龍的神獸,寓意威猛的保護者,能鎮宅安民,化解邪煞,招財納福。
雖然卡地亞在 1920 年代生產這個座鐘,但作品主要受到中國的輝煌歷史所 啟發。根據我們的研究,目前的白玉盤可能是來自十八或十九世紀的原裝中 國屏風,玉盤上的雕刻應該於同一時期完成,鑲嵌的寶石則由卡地亞在裝飾 藝術時期添加。在中國傳統文化裏,屏風通常放置在官員和學者的書桌之 上,作為伴隨沉思的工具,啓發儒士進行反思,不禁令人聯想到委託製作這 款時鐘的客戶與中國皇族歷史的聯繫。
此藴含重要歷史意義的座鐘在跨越三十年後,終於再度亮相拍賣市場,給予 再次被藏家珍藏的機會。藏家不僅能夠擁有一件工藝精湛,超然脫俗的藝術 品,更可以細味作品流露的歷史情懷 ,延續中華文化的承傳。
此卡地亞白玉座鐘是一件精美絕倫,彰顯非凡工藝的藝術品。取材自書畫家 董邦達的小幅墨筆畫作《山水小幅·其二·石壁飛泉》,座鐘玉盤呈現一幅 莊重高雅、神韻悠然的壯麗山水景觀。董邦達是乾隆皇帝的御用畫家,他在 詩、書、畫上均有造詣,是乾隆寵信的重臣之一。乾隆帝對董邦達的山水畫 推崇有加,經常題詩以表欣賞。
乾隆皇帝在墨筆畫作上留下的御題詩同樣淺刻在座鐘的白玉盤之上。
阜平水簾洞,路遙未遊目。 石壁善爭長,雨後都懸瀑。
乾隆皇帝(1711至 1799 年)
乾隆是史上在位時間最長,也是最長壽的中國君主之一,被廣泛認為是清朝 最傑出的皇帝。登基於 1735 年,他不僅是優秀的統治者,也是出色的藝術 倡導者。在乾隆的執政下,藝術文化盛行中國,中國古代最大型的叢書《四 庫全書》更獲朝廷贊助編修。他同時也積極為藝術、工藝、文學和文化建設 活動提供資金。
乾隆在統治六十年後,為了尊重祖父康熙皇帝,於 1796 年退位。他的統治以 繁榮穩定的平民治理為名, 並在歷史上創下了輝煌的軍事成就。乾隆經驗 了清朝全盛時期,也見證了國家昌盛之癲峰。任內六十年期間,中國曾有世 上最多的人口和最大的經濟體系。
眾多中國皇帝之中,基於乾隆象徵繁榮、權力和智慧,與乾隆相關的物品和 藝術品無疑已經成為部分最受藏家推崇的收藏品。例如乾隆擁有過百枚御 用印章,而其中一枚曾在拍賣中以 2, 200 萬美元的天價成交,足以證明藏家 對於這位長期君主的狂熱和尊重。
董邦達(1699至 1769 年)
董邦達出生於浙江富陽,既是深受尊崇的宮廷畫家和書法家,也是清朝的御 用畫家。在輝煌的職業生涯中,他曾獲封禮部尚書,更被追封諡號「文恪」。 董邦達以山水畫聞名,多數畫作後由乾隆皇帝御筆題字。
雕刻在玉盤上的御題詩讚揚阜平水簾洞的石壁高聳,以及雨後出現的瀑布。 時至今日,阜平縣仍然以壯麗景觀見稱,其瀑布尤甚美不勝收。董邦達通過 畫作捕捉箇中精髓,啟發乾隆皇帝的御題詩,對比石崖的壯觀與雨後瀑布的 畫面,深存動人意蘊。

Appealing for its simple yet stylish design, the Les Must de Cartier collection from 1970s was a massive hit due to its playful range of colourways and wallet-friendly price tag. The collection was the brainchild of Robert Hocq and Alain-Dominique Perrin during the quartz year of horological history. Based on the aesthetics of the Tank Louis Cartier, the Must de Cartier line was produced in silver and further gold plated known as Vermeil, and was widely fitted with brilliantly playful dials.
With rising popularity in these early Must collection, in 2021 Cartier unveiled a modern iteration of the model in Watches & Wonders. Incredibly well-received, the trio of monochrome Tank Must came in three rich colourways: forest green, navy blue and Cartier’s house colour red. Aesthetically very similar to its original, the new models were cased in robust stainless steel to fit modern day needs. Each fitted with a minimalistic dial with the signature of the maison and ‘swiss made’, the models came with a matching colour crocodile strap that brings a punch of colour on the wrist.
The present example in famous burgundy red of Cartier is further paired with a Cartier Tank bracelet, giving it a sportier appeal to the classic design.

The Pasha de Cartier originated from a special timepiece presented to the Pasha of Marrakesh, Thami El Glaoui in 1943. The original Pasha was a lavish yet elegant yellow gold wristwatch with a distinctive case design. Featuring a large case, crown protector and central lugs, the watch was a revolutionary design virtually unheard of at the time. The Pasha might look like a dress watch on the surface, but it is equipped with water resistance, designed to suit Thami El Glaoui’s active lifestyle.
In the 1980s, watch industry legend Alain Dominique Perrin, then at the helm of Cartier, decided to revive the Pasha and successfully made the Pasha a statement piece emblematic of the 1980s. With its masculine appeal and iconic elegance intact, the new Pasha was a design collaboration with the magnificent Gerald Genta.
Cartier has continued to offer new iterations of the Pasha during its more than 30 years of production span, and the present example is one such beautiful interpretation of the Pasha. While retaining the signature Pasha silhouette with the Vendôme lugs, screw-down crown cap, and dainty retaining chain, the dial has stripped down to a minimalistic and gorgeous blue dial. Coupled with the skeletonized hands and applied hour markers on top, the dial exudes a subtle and sophisticated refinement.
Coming from the acclaimed watch collector Mark Cho’s collection, the present timepiece is preserved in exceptional condition, and further accompanied by its original presentation box. This attractive Pasha embodies Cartier’s rich heritage and its timeless allure, and it is one not to be missed by the discerning collector.

In the early 2000s, Rolex made one of its most playful and unconventional forays into the Cosmograph Daytona lineup – unveiling the vibrantly colorful Daytona “Beach” series. Initially comprising just four lively dial variations, these watches represented a stark departure from the typically restrained and monochromatic sports models Rolex was known for.
The Daytona “Beach” models were initially met with both surprise and skepticism from the watch community. Their bold, vivid color schemes ranging from red to orange to green stood out against the predominant brushed steel and white dials of previous Daytona references. Some viewed these watches as a passing fad that was too fashion-forward and vibrant for Rolex’s conservative roots.
However, in the two decades since their release, the Daytona “Beach” has been wholly re-appraised as undisputed icons of modern Rolex style. Their playful and summery aesthetic was years ahead of its time. This pioneering spirit of fun and modernity paved the way for later hits like the bold “Rainbow” Daytona.

Audemars Piguet has long been revered for their exquisitely crafted and innovative Royal Oak timepieces. Though the first Royal Oak debuted in 1972, it was not until 1982 that Audemars Piguet introduced the Royal Oak perpetual calendar, merging their expertise in perpetual calendars with the iconic octagonal design. This revolutionary combination quickly became a highly coveted reference in horology.
Audemars Piguet unveiled the ref. 26574 in 2015 as a modern interpretation of the coveted Royal Oak perpetual calendar. With a larger 41mm case and the new self-winding cal. 5134, the ref. 26574 offered increased presence on the wrist while retaining a slim profile for comfort. The handsome blue “grand tapisserie” dial contrasts elegantly with the refined white gold indices, enhancing legibility. Additionally, the 52-week indicator and photorealistic moonphase with starry skies at 6 o’clock demonstrate Audemars Piguet’s dedication to fine craftsmanship.
This ref. 26574 in stainless steel is considered one of the most desirable configurations of the model. In excellent overall condition, it represents a rare chance for discerning collectors to acquire an icon of Audemars Piguet’s storied legacy. Its timeless elegance and impeccable details will be appreciated for generations to come.

Officially introduced in 2022, the Patek Philippe ref. 5526 makes for a distinctive addition to the Calatrava family. With a diameter of 40mm, this timepiece showcases a modern and refreshed aesthetic, featuring syringe hands, applied Arabic numerals, an eye-popping charcoal grey dial with a textured finish and a beige luminescent coating.
A notable feature when examining the watch from the side is the exquisitely crafted Clous de Paris hobnail pattern on the caseband, which adds a touch of traditional elegance. Interestingly, this unique hobnail pattern necessitates a different approach to forging the lugs. Instead of being attached from the caseband, the designers have ingeniously integrated the lugs into the caseback, solving the problem in an innovative and unconventional manner.
Preserved in excellent overall condition, the present Patek Philippe 5526G-001 dated back to 1st April 2022, is arguably one of the earliest examples to emerge from the esteemed Patek Philippe Salon amidst the Watches and Wonders 2022 period.

Building on their reputation for crafting intricate movements, Patek Philippe sought to combine a chronograph with the annual calendar, resulting in the creation of the reference 5960. This reference, first released in 2006, was Patek Philippe’s first in-house, automatic annual calendar flyback chronograph wristwatch. To commemorate this significant milestone, the reference 5960 was initially launched in platinum with a smoky grey dial, and subsequently in various precious metals such as pink and white gold.
The reference 5960 was met with great enthusiasm from collectors, and it’s not difficult to understand why. The timepiece featuring a distinctive bull’s eye register chronograph and pump pushers offered a fresh and contemporary aesthetic. Building on this legacy, Patek Philippe introduced another appealing variant in 2014, this time in stainless steel and paired with the brand’s signature rice bead bracelet.
The present example boasts a stunning silvery-white dial, which creates a striking contrast against the bold black ring accents and hour markers. The inclusion of racing red chronograph hands adds a sporty touch to the timepiece. This collection stands out as an elegant sports watch, offering a distinct alternative to Patek Philippe’s renowned Nautilus lineup. Complete with its certificate and presentation box, it appeals to collectors seeking something different and classic from the prestigious Patek Philippe brand.

Debuted in 1997, the Patek Philippe Aquanaut offered collectors an alternative to the Nautilus with an elevated sporty aesthetic. Initially produced as a limited series of 1,000 pieces, the Aquanaut ref. 5060 opted for a similar case design to its elder brother with a smaller case dimension of 36mm in diameter. It became an instant hit among both young and seasoned enthusiasts, resulting in the subsequent conception of the standard issued ref. 5065, marking the firm’s inaugural wristwatch to incorporate a now-signature tropical rubber strap.
Known as the “Jumbo” due to its large dimensions at 38mm diameter, the ref. 5065 inherited the distinct design DNA from the ref. 5060 while also featuring a transparent sapphire caseback, inviting the wearer to admire the exquisite architecture of the cal. 315 SC. A rare full set example from circa 2006, the present Patek Philippe Aquanaut ref. 5065A still retains its Certificate of Origin and set of accessories including its original presentation box.

The 21st century has witnessed a rapid rise of independent watch manufacturers, but few have made as significant an impact as Richard Mille. Since its establishment in 1999, the brand has been creating some of the most captivating timepieces, combining innovative approaches that fuse ultra-modern cutting-edge materials with traditional Swiss high-end watchmaking principles. With a growing cult-like following, Richard Mille timepieces have become highly sought after by collectors.
Renowned for their distinctive tonneau-shaped watches, Richard Mille ventured into the realm of circular dive watches in 2009 with the introduction of their RM 028 collection. Unlike its sister reference, the RM 025, the RM 028 forgoes features like a tourbillon or chronograph, staying true to the essence of a dive watch with only a date function and an unidirectional rotating bezel. The semiskeletonized dial of the RM 028 is visually captivating, and the watch itself is remarkably lightweight due to the use of grade 5 titanium.
Released in 2010, the current edition of the RM 028 holds particular significance as it celebrates Richard Mille’s sponsorship of the international yacht race Les Voiles de St Barth, held in the Caribbean waters surrounding St Barth. As their first collaboration, a limited edition of 100 pieces was produced. The watch is further distinguished by the use of vibrant yellow, a color commonly associated with diving and sailing, which is showcased on the rubber portion of its crown and the elapsed dive time scale markings on its diver’s bezel.
Very well-preserved, the current watch numbered 31 is accompanied by all of its accessories.

In the summer of 2017, Audemars Piguet surprised collectors with an exotic series Royal Oak Offshore Divers, boasting ultra-funky colourways to kick-off a season of sea, sun and self-indulgence. The present ref. 15710ST.OO.A038CA.01 is one of the five models introduced in the Funky Colour collection exclusive for boutiques.
Bearing an ever-iconic Mega-Tapisserie dial with white gold applied indexes, the main spectacle of this variant is its “Kermit” lime green canvas with cobalt blue accents. Without interrupting the flow of the octagonal bezel, an internal rotating chapter ring surrounding the dial is used to calculate the elapsed times. This feature can be easily actuated via the second crown at 10 o’clock and is designed to be used during underwater excursions. Adhering strongly to the brand’s DNA, this diver’s watch is framed in a robust stainless steel monobloc case with integrated lugs and a satin finish, measuring 42mm in diameter. The overall construction of the Royal Oak Offshore Diver is extremely solid, giving it a substantial wrist presence that is adapted to recreational diving sessions.
Reminiscent of the tropical sea, the contrasting blue and lime green colours perfectly complement each other without being too audacious. Delivered in excellent overall condition with its original accessories, this fizzy green beast is ready to be shown off on both underwater and landlocked adventures.

In 1996, Patek Philippe introduced the world’s first annual calendar wristwatch, marking a significant milestone in watchmaking history. Recognizing the potential of this complication, Audemars Piguet quickly embarked on the development of their own annual calendar. The brand’s objective at that time was to create a useful complication while making minimal modifications to the core style of the iconic Royal Oak, all housed in a mid-sized case.
The solution they devised for this annual calendar involved a central hand indicating the date and a subsidiary dial displaying the month, where the calibre 2224/2814 is based on a Jaeger-LeCoultre 889 module. The reference 25920 was introduced and available in stainless steel and yellow gold, but it was later discontinued in the early 2000s. A hidden gem of its own, this model rarely appears at auctions.
The present example is particularly remarkable, boasting a highly sought-after blue dial and retained its unpolished and excellent condition. It is accompanied by all of its original accessories, making it a significant piece in the extensive history of the Royal Oak collection.
Please note that the proceeds of the sale of the present watch will be given by the Consignor to various charities.

In the 1990s, Audemars Piguet set their maverick designer Emmanuel Gueit an audacious task – reinvent the Royal Oak with daring new proportions. After years perfecting a prototype, the resulting ref. 25721 was unveiled in 1993 to awe and astonishment. Nicknamed “The Beast” for its radical 42mm case, it marked the birth of the groundbreaking Offshore lineage while pioneering the trend for larger timepieces.
This early “E Series” example beautifully exhibits the coveted “tropical” dial patina, with its rich brown tone saturating elegantly over time. An unpredictable metamorphosis treasured by collectors. Its provenance is further distinguished by the original owner’s special ties to Audemars Piguet. Having acquired the watch directly from the manufacture rather than a boutique, which explains the blank certificate – its remarkable history is forever inscribed in the manufacture’s internal archives.
Accompanied by its original certificate and presentation box, the present ref. 25721 “Beast” in titanium is an exceptionally rare example with remarkable pedigree that embodies the disruptive spirit of the Offshore’s genesis – an enduring icon of 1990s watchmaking bravado.

The release of the Royal Oak Offshore in 1993 marked a groundbreaking moment, as Audemars Piguet introduced an innovative lineup of luxury sports models that can act the blank canvas for future ultra-complicated movements, even can be paired with rubber straps. Among these exceptional timepieces is the Royal Oak Offshore Tourbillon Chronograph, which stands as one of the most complex watches in the collection at the time of its release.
Inside the timepiece ticks the in-house calibre 2933, which boasts an impressive tourbillon chronograph complication. While most regular timepieces offer an average power reserve of 48-72 hours, the doublebarrel mechanism of this calibre provides a remarkable power reserve of 237 hours. The dial of the watch is openworked at 6 and 12 o’clock, offering a glimpse of the double barrel.
The model was available in four different iterations, each featuring various case materials. The present iteration is undoubtedly the most prestigious and sought-after. Encased in a large and hefty 44mm platinum case, the bezel, crown, and pushers are crafted from black ceramic, lending the watch a striking aesthetic while also enhancing durability and scratch resistance. Presented in excellent overall condition with minor signs of use and wear, the timepiece comes accompanied by its certificate and presentation box. With its visually captivating presence and masterful craftsmanship, this wristwatch is a true masterpiece that should not be overlooked.

The Vagabondage series by F.P. Journe was initiated in 2006 following a charity auction dedicated to a research institute for brain and spinal cord diseases in Paris. This unique model earned its name due to its wandering original digital time display and its distinctive flat turtleshaped case, which deviates from the brand’s usual round cases that are highly popular. In 2010, the Vagabondage II was introduced as the second timepiece by F.P. Journe, featuring a tortue-shaped case.
The Vagabondage II is an innovative and captivating timepiece that showcases jumping hours and minutes through rotating discs positioned at the center of its symmetric dial layout. Notably, like its predecessor, the dial does not bear the brand name but there are numerous details that embody the unmistakable genetic codes of the F.P. Journe brand. On the reverse side, the observer is treated to the sight of the caliber 1509, luxuriously crafted in pink gold, seamlessly fitted into the case. The movement boasts exquisite finishing and incorporates a constant force device, ensuring equal energy distribution from the mainspring with each jump of the discs.
The Vagabondage II was released as a limited edition with 68 pieces in pink gold and 69 pieces in platinum. This particular pink gold Vagabondage II, offered by its original owner, remains in excellent condition with impeccable finishing. It was sold in 2011 at the F.P. Journe Paris boutique, and the engraved case number on the back further highlights its importance. Numbered 2 out of 68 pieces, this watch is possibly one of the earliest from the production batch to appear on the market. Given that tortue-shaped timepieces are a rarity in the creations of Monsieur Journe, this example holds significant value as a highly collectible piece from one of the most esteemed independent master watchmakers today.

Francois-Paul Journe has never been shy of taking existing complications and modifying them in a way where they become easily usable, understandable but also have the extra technical aspect that make them immediately recognizable as been one of his oeuvres.
The present UTC (Universal Coordinated Time) is the genius watchmakers take on the dual time zone but with a twist since 2011.
The blued hours/Minutes hands indicate the local time and are linked to the date indication. The smaller gold hand indicates home time on 24 hours. A colorful globe on the left hand side of the dial is divided into 24 timezones, via the crown the wearer moves the globe so that the home time zone is positioned on 0 for winter time. Simultaneously, the gold hand automatically adjusts itself to the corresponding hour of this region. The purpose of the +1 / -1 indicator is to change the specific region for summer time which is linked to the geographical location of the user depending if its east or west of the chosen zone.
Cased in a 40mm platinum exterior, the sub-dial of the hour and minutes features applied numerals that’s adds an extra depth to the vibrant dial. The date wheel is also in the colour of a matching blue that works extremely well with its blued hands. Powered by the calibre 1300.3, the timepiece has a power reserve of 120 hours, perfect for the jet-setter’s itinerary for 5 days.
Cherished by the original owner and preserved in excellent overall condition, the present timepiece is accompanied with a warranty that bears Monsieur. Journe’s autograph and its full set of accessories.

For the 50th anniversary of the diplomatic ties between France and China, Francois-Paul Journe with his roots from Marseille, was proudly appointed as the official watchmaker to represent the brilliance of traditional Haute Horlogerie. To mark this milestone between the two countries, a pair of limited edition timepieces were created, an Octa Automatique Lune with a novel French blue dial, and an Elégante with a majestic jade dial.
Part of the Octa collection, the present example is encased in a 40mm platinum case and powered by a 22K pink gold self-winding rotor with an impressive 120 hour power reserve. With a limited production, the official release of 10 pieces of this beautiful monochromatic dial with embossed red commemorative logo were only available from each of the ten F.P.

Since its debut in 1994 after A. Lange & Söhne’s reestablishment, the Lange 1 has embodied the maison’s quest for horological perfection. In the decades since, few timepieces have garnered more acclaim than this foundational icon. The original four Lange 1 models encapsulated a courageous new beginning, while upholding Lange’s distinguished German watchmaking heritage. Its bold asymmetric dial layout with outsized date and off-center time display marked a contemporary stylistic code that later influenced watch design industry-wide.
In 2020, Lange released two new Lange 1 Perpetual Calendar references, including this exclusive limited edition of 150 pieces in white gold with a sublime 18K pink gold dial, or as some may call it the highly desirable “Salmon” dial. Rather than utilizing an existing movement minus the tourbillon, the Lange 1 Perpetual Calendar is powered by the new cal. L021.3. The dial exquisitely showcases the perpetual calendar, with the month indicated via a ring along the periphery and read by a gold pointer at 6 o’clock. Though similar to its predecessor, refinements include integrating the day/night indicator into the moonphase and redesigning the time subdial to match the Lange 1 Moon Phase.
Numbered 125 of 150 and accompanied by its full set of accessories, the present example remains within its original guarantee period. Offered in virtually unworn condition, collectors are treated to Lange’s exemplary perpetual calendar watchmaking artistry with this exclusive timepiece.

Since its introduction in 1994, A. Lange & Söhne’s Lange 1 has captivated collectors with its seemingly busy yet harmonious dial design, characterized by the perfect ratio and architecture of the golden triangle. This iconic timepiece has become the epitome of A. Lange & Söhne’s watchmaking prowess. In 2003, to cater to a wider audience, A. Lange & Söhne unveiled a larger collection, the Grand Lange 1, featuring an elevated 42mm diameter case that exudes a commanding presence on the wrist while offering a modern aesthetic. The overlapping subsidiary seconds and the signature oversized date inspired by the Dresden Semper Opera clock, create a delightful harmony that is showcased on the handsome dial.
The present timepiece, adorned with blued steel hands, is not your typical Grand Lange 1 found in the market. Nicknamed the “Blue Italia”, it was specifically produced for the Italian market and was only made between 2007 and 2009. Limited to only 100 pieces, the current watch, numbered 82, is exceptionally well-preserved, barely worn, and is accompanied by its full set of accessories.

To honor the legacy of Abraham Louis Breguet, one of the greatest horological inventors in the history of watchmaking, Breguet’s Classique Grande Complication collection features some of the most interesting complications in the history of watchmaking. The present example boasts the perpetual equation of time, a mechanism that couples the perpetual calendar with the equation of time patented by Breguet in 1991. The equation of time is a rare complication that displays the difference between mean solar time – our civil time based on a conventional twenty-four-hour period – and true solar time, which varies with the earth’s irregular orbit round the sun. The complex mechanism is driven by the ultra-thin base calibre 502, modified from the Frederic Piguet calibre 70 from the 1970s, and the exquisitely engraved pink gold movement is proudly displayed via the transparent case back.
The dial of the present timepiece is further adorned by the instantly recognizable Breguet motifs. The fineness of the hand-crafted engine-turned silvered dial is paired with the iconic blued Breguet hands and satin-finished chapter ring, stamped with the secret Breguet’s signatures between 11 to 1 o’clock. The case is equally iconic with the embellishment of the caseband fluting and Breguet lugs. These delicate details demonstrate extraordinary craftsmanship and artistry, and are fundamental to the unique charm of a classic Breguet watch. Offered in excellent condition, and accompanied by a Breguet Certificate of Origin and Breguet product literature, the present reference 3477 in pink gold is a striking timepiece that blends mechanical mastery with aesthetic elegance, and is one not to be missed by the tasteful collector.

Accompanied by Breguet certificate of origin stamped Friedrich Haute Joaillerie, Frankfurt and dated December 1992.
The introduction of the jumping hour mechanism is broadly attributed to the Austrian engineer Josef Pallweber in 1883, and the jumping hour was very fashionable in the mid-18th century and later during the Art Deco period. During the Roaring Twenties, they were produced by eminent names of watchmaking, including Breguet, Audemars Piguet and Vacheron Constantin, but the fashion declined with the Great Depression, and ended definitively by World War 2 only to see a rebirth in the early 1990s. The present Breguet reference 3420 BA from circa 1992 marks a continuation to the tradition, and it is a splendid display of technical mastery with the jumping hours movement.
The timepiece boasts a very simple dial design. The only graphic details are the signature at 6, discreet dotted minute divisions, and the black Breguet numerals. The hour is subtly indicated in red through an aperture positioned at 12 o’clock. A hidden Breguet signature is delightfully revealed under the 60 minutes when the dial is put under specific lighting condition. Complementing the minimalistic dial design, the watch has retained some familiar characteristics emblematic of Breguet’s timeless elegance, including the “Breguet” blued steel minute hand, Breguet style lugs, caseband fluting, and winding crown with a sapphire cabochon.
Preserved in excellent condition, and accompanied by the original Breguet certificate of origin dated December 1992 and stamped Friedrich Haute Joaillerie, Frankfurt, the present timepiece, numbered 260 of a limited edition of 800 pieces, is a most charming and unusual early example epitomizing the subtle and supremely elegant Breguet design.

Breguet has pioneered one of horology’s most revered complications –the tourbillon. Each Breguet tourbillon bears the engraving “Brevet du 7 Messidor An 9”, marking the pivotal date of June 26th, 1801 when Abraham-Louis Breguet first patented his invention. This was a period of immense upheaval in France, amidst the aftermath of revolution and Napoleon’s rise to power. Yet Breguet tirelessly pursued his life’s work, developing the groundbreaking innovations that remain relevant centuries later. The tourbillon stands as a testament to his relentless genius.
This platinum tonneau-shaped Héritage Tourbillon consummately embodies the maison’s horological mastery. The oversized case magnifies appreciation of the tourbillon occupying the 6 o’clock position, with Breguet’s signature guilloché patterns radiating outward from its cage and elegant time display with classic Breguet hands. The Roman numerals further adds to the ingenuity of the dial layout.
Offered in “like-new” condition complete with accessories, this watch allows the collector to acquire a fitting modern tribute to the enduring legacy of Breguet’s pioneering genius.

In a bold move embracing the brand’s heritage, Patek Philippe turned to the production of this highly complicated wristwatch, laying the ground for the subsequent production of modern grand complications. Until its discontinuation in 2007, this was one of the brand’s longest running references ever. Worn daily by Philippe Stern, the 3940 is a remarkable watch emblematic of the extraordinary history and perpetuation of Patek Philippe.
Featuring a classic aesthetic that sits between tradition and modernity, the present 3940 boasts a lacquered white dial with black Roman numerals and “tram track” style outer minute ring, a configuration that appears rarely across the different case metals including yellow gold, white gold, platinum, and pink gold. Inside the case, the 3940 is powered by the legendary caliber 240 Q, the first movement featuring a micro-rotor that was ultra-thin according to past standards. Observable from the sapphire caseback, the present example features the slightly modified calibre 240/114 that was introduced in the third series in the early 90’s.
Presented in exceptional condition and complete with its full and original set of accessories, the present reference 3940J from circa 2001 is an exemplary example adorned with a beautiful layer of patina on the yellow gold case, deployant clasp and blued hands, emitting an intoxicating aureate glimmer. Rare and irresistible, this 3940J will undoubtedly appeal to the passionate collectors who seek outstanding horological icons.
Please note that the proceeds of the sale of the present watch will be given by the Consignor to various charities.

Launched in 1998, the reference 5070 was the first chronograph-only wristwatch released by Patek Philippe in approximately 40 years since the production of the iconic reference 1463 “Tasti Tondi” ceased in the 1960s. Taking inspiration from the legendary reference 2512, a uniquepiece 46.2mm aviator’s chronograph from 1955 currently residing in the Patek Philippe Museum, the reference 5070 is a charming revival of pre-1950s chronographs from the golden era, characterised by its oversized yellow gold case, stepped bezel and lugs, rectangular pushers, and black tachometer dial.
The first series of the reference 5070, produced exclusively in yellow gold, was manufactured between 1998 and 2003, with an estimated 1,000 pieces only. Other configurations consisted of different metal cases, including pink gold, white gold and platinum, were subsequently introduced until the reference was discontinued in 2009. To the best of our knowledge, only approximately 100 examples of 5070J have appeared publicly in auction to date. As the most loyal iteration of the reference 2512, this early example features what is often deemed as the most desirable configuration by some collectors. The present watch is further imbued with a layer of patina on the case through the passage of time, adding an irresistible vintage flair to its allure.
In terms of the movement, the 5070 was the last reference to be fitted with the celebrated calibre 27-70 CHR based on the Lemania 2310 developed by Albert Gustave Piguet. The 5070 was executed with impeccable taste and design genius that the small movement fits perfectly with the massive 42mm case, an impressive feat that cements it as an extraordinary horological beauty in the history of Patek Philippe chronographs.
Presented in excellent condition, and complete with Certificate of Origin, booklets and presentation box, this present lot is without a doubt an outstanding example for the discerning collectors.

Patek Philippe has long been revered as a pioneer in perpetual calendar chronographs, first unveiling the genre’s debut ref. 1518 in the late 1940s. Succeeded by the equally legendary ref. 2499, the manufacture has since continued creating exemplary renditions that have cultivated a devoted following.
In 1996, Patek Philippe launched their inaugural perpetual calendar split seconds chronograph – the landmark ref. 5004. Met with acclaim, it featured the final Lemania-based cal. CH 27-70 Q before being discontinued in 2010, succeeded by a limited stainless steel series.
2012 brought a new dawn with the ref. 5204 – flaunting Patek Philippe’s first in-house perpetual calendar split seconds chronograph cal. CHR 29-535 PS Q. While retaining the revered aesthetics, several dial enhancements optimised legibility including an inverted moonphase at 6 o’clock alongside day/night and leap year apertures. Keen eyes appreciate the “chin” date registers sitting above the minute track, unlike the overlapping layout of the ref. 5004. Housed in an enlarged 40mm case, the ref. 5204 signaled a modern evolution of Patek’s complication mastery.
Fresh-to-the-market, the present ref. 5204R-011 in pink gold paired with an elegant slate grey dial was released in 2021 and recently discontinued. This outstanding example from circa 2022 exhibits hardly any signs of use and is further accompanied by all its original accessories.

This pocket watch holds a significant place in the history and evolution of Patek Philippe’s perpetual calendar system. During the 1880s, Patek Philippe made remarkable strides in developing and refining complications in their timepieces, marking a significant chapter in the company’s history defined by unwavering commitment to innovation and horological excellence.
Manufactured in 1883, before the company patented its perpetual calendar mechanism in 1889, this watch stands as a testament to the early development of this remarkable feature. Patek Philippe’s dedication to perfecting the perpetual calendar resulted in highly accurate and reliable timepieces. They focused on enhancing the user experience, incorporating intuitive mechanisms to adjust calendar displays easily. These early perpetual calendars showcased the brand’s technical prowess, accounting for leap years, irregular month lengths, and lunar phases.
From 1889 to 1904, Patek Philippe secured several patents for various watch movement mechanisms, solidifying its reputation as a creator of exceptional timepieces. The present watch, with its fusion of the perpetual calendar for astronomical functions, the chronograph for precise timing, and the distinct minute repeater for auditory pleasure, represents the pinnacle of watch manufacturing during that era. Its pristine original condition further adds to its overall appeal.
Specially crafted for Bailey, Banks & Biddle, a renowned American jewellery and luxury goods retailer based in Philadelphia, this extraordinary timepiece exemplifies the brand’s long-standing heritage associated with elegance and superior quality. Established in 1832, Bailey, Bank & Biddle has catered to discerning customers seeking exquisite jewelry, timepieces, and other luxurious accessories, earning a reputation for excellence.
It is worth noting that only a minuscule number of Patek Philippe ‘triple complication’ watches have ever been publicly known or offered for sale at auction. With its exceptional quality and rarity, the present watch holds significant value and would undoubtedly be a prized addition to any serious watch collection.

Patek Philippe has long been renowned for its technical innovation and exceptional craftsmanship. It is often through their intricate timepieces that connoisseurs can truly appreciate the mastery behind their watches. Research suggests that approximately 600 pieces of minute repeating chronograph watches were produced over time, while close to 1000 examples of the minute repeating split-seconds chronograph were crafted, highlighting the brand’s specialization in these refined complications.

These watches were available in various dial configurations, including rare hunter case models with or without registers, as well as open-face pocket watches with or without registers. Open-face watches with registers typically featured vertical positioning of 30-minute and subsidiary seconds dials.
The present lot is an exquisite yellow gold minute repeating splitseconds chronograph pocket watch by Patek Philippe, featuring a highly sought-after white enamel dial adorned with painted Breguet numerals.

A chance to own a part of its history from none other than the great Patek Philippe, the present open-faced pocket watch is one of such. Preserved in gorgeous condition featuring a white enamel dial decorated with classic Breguet numerals and blued steel spade hands, the shinny gold cuvette is inscribed with a delightful merit. “Second Prize, Geneva Astronomical Observatory Timing Contest”, the present specimen was part of the submission in 1910 and went home with a mark of recognition for the maison’s achievement.
The star of the show is the “Extra” quality 18’’’ nickel plated movement decorated with Côtes de Genève. Patek Philippe classified its watches with a special system: “Extra”, “Special”, and “Extra Extra” being the highest quality and finishing which required master watchmakers to handle. Each caliber produced by the manufacturer is made to exacting specifications and guidelines, including jewelling to the train and escapement, the end-stone must be centered on the baseplate, the going train must be angled above and below with polished sink, the winding mechanism must meet registered designs, steeled parts must have polished angles just to name a few. The movements that qualify as “Extra” have more requirements including, jewels set in gold chatons, often with counterpoised straight line lever escapements, micrometer regulators and eight adjustments.It is also notable that the timepieces that were sent to the Observatory Contest boasts movement numbers stamped twice within the movement.
Featuring a Guillaume balance with “eagle head” staff, gold wheels, wolf tooth gears and diamond-endstone, this movement is built for ultimate precision timekeeping. Furthermore, it is engraved with its patent date “Jan 13 1891” for the ornamental bridge design that granted Patek Philippe to claim the patent for the famous Chronometro Gondolo calibre made for retailer Gondolo & Lauriau.
Boasting not only a strong case, crisp hallmarks and razor-sharp engravings, but devoltion and endurance that only a few can accomplished, the present specimen surely have enough reasons for modern day collectors to fall in love with pocket watches all over again.

The platinum Gondolo case of this watch provides an elegant frame for the captivating scenery depicted on the dial. The use of the cloisonné enamel technique adds to the complexity and beauty of the watch. This technique involves decorating the dial with thin gold wires and applying enamel, which is then heated to achieve the perfect color. However, due to the delicate nature of the process, the failure rate is high, with the possibility of cracking during the heating process. This particular watch showcases the beautiful partnership between clownfish and sea anemone. It fully captures the fascinating dance performed by clownfish as they acclimate themselves to the anemone’s tentacles before taking up residence. The clownfish’s immunity to the anemone’s lethal stings, thanks to the mucus on their skin, is a remarkable adaptation. The dial further highlights the intricate relationship between clownfish and sea anemones, where the clownfish feed on small invertebrates to prevent harm to their host. Their activity also contributes to water circulation around the sea anemone, and even their waste products provide nutrients to the anemone.
Presented in excellent condition, this watch is a testament to the exceptional craftsmanship of Patek Philippe and is a true work of art. It is a perfect choice for enthusiasts of marine life and those who appreciate the beauty and intricacy of the Rare Handcrafts collection.
The present offering is part of a 4-piece Rare Handcrafts edition featuring distinct fish designs and we are privileged to offer all 4 pieces in this auction in the next 3 following lots.

The art of cloisonné enamel has always been Patek Philippe’s proud heritage jewel celebrated by esteemed collectors. Essentially a lost art today, cloisonné enamelling is an ancient decorative technique practised only by the best artisans. The art form involves a challenging and painstakingly long technical process, which involves manoeuvring thin gold wires to form intricate outlines, craving out compartments for filling in enamel. It requires microscopic detailing by hand, small enough to create a finished portrait on the dial. It takes tremendous skills to achieve the ideal colours, and to avoid causing dial cracks during the heating process. Depending on the intricacy of the design, a single design can return to the kiln up to 12 times, and a perfect dial is the result of great technical virtuosity and strenuous efforts.
Launched in 2003, the present reference 5076 consists of a range of enamel dial variants, each focusing on different subject matters, with depictions of the Geneva Lake, Zodiacs or amiable fishes like the present example. The fish series was launched with four types of distinct fishes in limited production before it was discontinued in 2006. Cased in a perfect canvas of the elegant platinum rectangular Gondolo case, the present watch features a pair of beautiful Orangetail Butterflyfish, swimming amidst the rippling sea meadows. The intricately shaped gold wires glisters under different lightings and complements the alluring shades of blue of the moving water.
A splendid object of art fusing traditional Swiss artisanal craft and technical excellence, the present timepiece is offered in exceptional condition, and accompanied by the original Patek Philippe Certificate of Origin. It will without a doubt appeal to the tasteful connoisseurs with an appreciation of artisan timepieces.

Among the various enameling techniques, cloisonné enamel is considered one of the most technically challenging. Creating a cloisonné enamel dial involves manipulating thin wires to form intricate designs that are raised from the base plate, rather than etched into it.

In today’s world, it is confident to say that wristwatches dominate the realm of horology. Pocket watches, once highly regarded in the 19th century, have been somewhat overlooked by collectors, given their perceived antiquity and decreased practicality. Consequently, only a few watch manufacturers dedicate their resources to crafting fine pocket watches, as their popularity has waned over time. However, Patek Philippe, renowned for its legendary watchmaking heritage, remains committed to exploring the realm of pocket watches, particularly through their Rare Handcrafts collection.
The present timepiece serves as a delightful testament to Patek Philippe’s dedication to preserving the traditions of fine watchmaking. While contemporary collectors often seek intricate complications, the reference 983 exudes elegance with its practical power reserve indication. Retaining a classical charm, the dial is adorned with meticulously crafted applied gold Breguet numerals.

Remarkably, this particular example is fresh-to-the-market and preserved in excellent condition.

It was produced in all four precious metals: yellow gold, pink gold, white gold, and platinum, spanning a total of four series over a production period of 19 years. It is estimated that more than 4,000 examples of the ref. 3970 were made.
Among the various metals, the present Patek Philippe ref. 3970/2R001 is noteworthy as it is encased in 18K pink gold, which, along with the white gold variants, is one of the rarest materials used for this reference. The cases for these watches were produced by Ateliers Réunis S.A., as indicated by the Geneva key 28 stamp found inside the caseback. Additionally, a small batch of 3970 examples during production did away with the sculpted lugs and instead featured a “beads of rice” bracelet directly attached to the case. The dial layout of the fourth series had a modernized appeal compared to previous series with typewriter fonts at the day and month, baton hands and lapidated indexes. According to the Certificate of Origin, the present example is dated to February 2005, making it one of the last examples of the reference before the end of its production in 2004.
Offered in excellent condition, the hallmarks stamped on the caseband remain crisp and well-preserved. Fresh-to-the-market, the watch comes with a full set of accessories, including a setting pin and an additional solid caseback with corresponding numbers. With only a handful resurfaced in the auction market, the Patek Philippe ref. 3970/2R-001 is sure to impress discerning collectors who are seeking a timeless and significant Patek Philippe perpetual calendar chronograph bracelet watch.

The Jaquet Droz family belongs to a long line of Neuchätel clockmakers renowned for developing watchmaking to the highest level of technical excellence. Pierre Jaquet-Droz and his son Henri-Louis are both master horological inventors who have created extraordinary clocks and automata together and have toured the royal courts of Europe and China with their stunning creations. The first Jaquet Droz workshop was opened in 1738, and they have been perpetuating the spirit of innovation and aesthetic refinement ever since. Moreover, they were the first to establish their manufacture in Geneva in 1784.
Saluting the rich tradition and virtuosity of Jaquet Droz, the present Petite Heure Minute Paillonnée is a unique piece first offered at Only Watch 2015 and sold for CHF35,000. For the first time, Jaquet Droz combines Paillennée enamelling with a yellow gold case measuring 43mm diameter for one of its most emblematic models. The ancient art of Pailionne enameling is an extremely difficult ornamental technique. It consists of creating a raised motif using tiny pieces of gold leaf, applied one by one with great dexterity. This is further coupled with the delicate work of enamelling for obtaining both the required colors and the translucency of the enamel to reveal the sunray decoration underneath. The deep bordeaux red (referencing the Monaco flag) Grand Feu enamel dial on the present timepiece is embellished by exquisite floral motifs, and the result is breathtaking.
Powered by the calibre 2653.P with 68 hours of power reserve, the movement of the present watch is also equipped with a silicon spiral, the first time that Jaquet Droz incorporates the material in a Petite Heure Minute. The material boasts flexibility and resistance to shocks, and thus contributes to stable performance over time.
Offered in excellent overall condition, the present watch is a magnificent unique piece that boasts supreme craftsmanship and is truly a wonder to behold.

The pocket watch has always been an important part of the IWC brand history. The Schaffhausen-based manufacture has managed to keep their pocket watch tradition alive in small production numbers from the mid-1930s, when pocket watches began to be replaced by wristwatches, through to even today. In the 1970s during the quartz crisis, the brand had even considered specializing on pocket watch production. The present IWC pocket watch from circa 1989 perfectly displays the intricate craftsmanship of IWC with its fully skeletonized dial, allowing the viewer to admire the exquisitely hand-engraved movement in its full immensity.
Encased in an extravagant yellow gold hexagonal case, the sapphire and diamond-set bezel complements the golden hue of the movement. Powered by the manual caliber 9527, a manual lever movement that is a descendent of the celebrated Calibre 95 first introduced in 1927. Presented in excellent overall condition with crisp and unrubbed hallmarks stamped on the case, the present lot is further accompanied by its an IWC extract, confirming the sale of the present timepiece on 11th October 1989. This is a true gem not to be missed by the discerning collector.

Being the world’s oldest watch manufacturer in continuous operation, Vacheron Constantin has a long history of producing exceptional timepieces. It played a significant role in the industry’s transition from pocket watches to wristwatches in the early 20th century. One notable contribution was the introduction of the tonneau-shaped case, deviating from the traditional round design.
In 2000, Vacheron Constantin introduced the Malte collection to mark the new millennium and symbolize a new chapter in the brand’s heritage. Among the collection, the Malte Tonneau Tourbillon stands out as a remarkable timepiece. It boasts a captivating guilloché and sunburst dial, incorporating practical date display and power reserve indicator. However, the highlight of the watch is undoubtedly the large and mesmerizing tourbillon, showcasing the iconic Maltese cross.
The present example, crafted in 18K pink gold, is exceptionally well-preserved and played a pivotal role in the brand’s evolution and adaptation to the new millennium. Not only does it possess an aesthetically pleasing design, but it is also comfortable to wear thanks to its meticulously crafted downturned lugs. While Vacheron Constantin’s popularity has largely shifted towards the Overseas collection, the Malte Tonneau Tourbillon should not be overlooked as it remains a significant timepiece in the brand’s lineup.
Please note that the proceeds of the sale of the present watch will be given by the Consignor to various charities.

The Patek Philippe Celestial is a compelling fusion of technical prowess, exceptional craftsmanship, and pure poetry. Introduced in 2002, the reference 5102 was initially produced in white gold only. It was estimated that only approximately 500 pieces in white gold were made, before yellow gold examples were launched in 2007, and subsequently the pink gold and platinum variant in 2009. The reference 5102 was finally discontinued in 2012, paving the way for its descendant, the reference 6102.
The present reference 5102 is an astronomical wristwatch with its design rooted from the principle of the celestial canopy, for which the research and development instigated from the creation of the third most complicated Patek Philippe wristwatch ever created, the Star Calibre 2000. To achieve the highest possible exactitude for the astronomical displays, the engineers of Patek Philippe researched 25 trillion ratio combinations, showing the enormous horological challenge the model represents.
The dial of the timepiece depicts the skychart of the Northern Hemisphere elegantly rotating to depict the apparent angular motion of the stars and moon, along with the progression of the phases of the moon. Three sapphire crystal discs are seamlessly layered on top of one another to simulate the dynamic orbit of the moon and the passage of the stars, hence rendering it a remarkable sense of depth.
The hours and minutes are indicated by two skeletonized whitelacquered gold feuille (leaf-shaped) hands, pairing with the subtle blue outer chapter ring with roman numerals. The delicate elliptical contour on the inside of the glass further frames the portion of the sky visible from all cities sharing the latitude of Geneva. The present example features beautiful white gold case, embellished by delicate Calatrava engravings on the case bands. A silver lining surrounding the poetic blue sky, emanating supreme elegance.
Preserved in excellent overall condition and accompanied by the original Patek Philippe Certificate of Origin, the present timepiece is arguably one of the most intriguing modern Patek Philippe wristwatches made, and it will surely enchant collectors of spectacular masterpieces.

Although Patek Philippe is not typically known for producing pilot watches, they did have a brief foray into this field in the 1930s. In the Patek Philippe Museum, two military watches created during that era can be found, specifically designed for pilots and navigators. These watches, known as “hour-angle” watches, were instrumental in facilitating faster navigation and precise positioning through the use of a sextant and radio signals. Notably, these vintage Patek Philippe timepieces are unusually large, measuring 55.3 mm in diameter.
In 2015, Patek Philippe made a significant impression with the release of the 5524G, a watch that diverged from their contemporary designs. Drawing inspiration from their early pilot watches, Patek Philippe once again demonstrated their exceptional craftsmanship by creating a masterpiece. This watch features a dual-time movement with a fully adjustable GMT hand and a skeletonized appearance for home time. The hand can be easily adjusted using the buttons on the side, ensuring it is very accessible to the user. With excellent legibility, the blue varnished dial is adorned with Superluminova-filled numeral hour markers, further enhancing the pilot aesthetic. The overall pilot look is complemented by a brown calf strap.
Since its initial release, the travel time pilot collection has expanded to include various complications, ranging from alarms to flyback chronographs. With its accompanying accessories, this timepiece is undoubtedly an excellent choice for frequent travelers seeking an elegant addition to their collection.

Well-received by collectors since its introduction at the Baselworld 2012, the Patek Philippe Regulator ref. 5235 was the firm’s first of its kind. Unique in its own respect, the aesthetics of the timepiece is not just refreshing but extremely well executed featuring a vertical two-tone dial with silver brushed finish and blue accents.
Although the appeal is a first, an experienced eye may notice the similarities of the case compared among the legendary refs. 3448 and 3540 nicknamed the “Padellone” meaning “frying pan” in Italian. Defined by its sharp edges with brushed casebands and its iconic pointy lugs, the ref. 5235 is truly an understated masterpiece. Elegant, refreshing and technically sound, the movement was especially designed for this reference and is similar in architecture to no other caliber made by the brand. Notably, it is the first serially produced Patek Philippe caliber to incorporate three silicon components developed by the Advance Research department: a silicon escape wheel, a silicon anchor and a silicon balance spring. The design on its pin buckle to the reference also stepped out of the box by using an unique crescendo typeface for Patek Philippe that is elegantly modern.
With the present reference discontinued recently, it was replaced by an example in pink gold. The present example from circa 2018 and offered in attractive overall condition.

2014 marked the 175th Anniversary of Patek Philippe. In commemoration of this momentous milestone, the firm released a series of highly exclusive limited-edition watches, including the hyper-complicated Grandmaster Chime ref. 5175 and unconventional tonneau-shaped Chiming Jump Hour ref. 5275P. The ref. 5575G-001 is part of this celebratory series and remarkably, it is the first Patek Philippe World Time fitted with a second complication, not to mention, a moon phase indication. The brand’s longstanding commitment to excellence in form and function is proudly illustrated in this collection of highly complicated, elegant timepieces.
Dressed in black, the ref. 5575G features a monochromatic moon phase display in the center with an updated chapter ring of the 24 cities. The wearer is invited to admire the passage of the moon amongst the starry night as each month progresses via the doublelayered disc in the center. In a twist to their traditional world time complications, the Central European time zone, which typically features the city of Paris, was replaced with Geneva in honour of the home city of Patek Philippe.
This mesmerising model was produced in a limited edition of 1300 pieces as a tribute to Louis Cottier’s 1931 invention, the world time complication. Fresh-to-the-market, the present World Time Moon is offered with its original accessories. Combining its rarity and sophisticated good looks, the ref. 5575G is perhaps one of the most intriguing timepieces from the Maison’s world time collection.

Alongside the Cartier Tank, the Jaeger-LeCoultre Reverso’s rectangular silhouette remains one of the most distinctive case shapes in watchmaking. Blending sophistication with ingenious functional design, the Reverso has stood as Jaeger-LeCoultre’s flagship model since its 1930s debut.

In 2022, Cartier celebrated the 100th anniversary of the original Tank Chinoise, a redesigned version of the Tank watch that drew inspiration from traditional Chinese architecture. Throughout its century-long existence, the Chinoise has remained an intriguing variation where the case design offers more depth compared to the original Tank Normale introduced in 1919. To commemorate this significant milestone, Cartier released a series of novelties in their Cartier Privé lineup. Among them, the present example stands out with its striking design.
Upon first glance, one is captivated by the skeletonized dial and vibrant color combination. Interestingly, instead of Roman numerals, which are often associated with Cartier’s skeleton movements, the bridges and base plate of this watch have been openworked to form a Chinese architectural inspired pattern that complements the overall case construction. The use of cobalt blue and burgundy lacquer colors creates a yin and yang image of a circle within a square that signifies balance and harmony.
Limited to only 100 pieces, this particular iteration is encased in the noble metal platinum. It is kept in excellent condition and comes complete with its full set of accessories. Numbered 9, this Cartier Tank Chinoise represents the enduring history of the collection and holds a special place in the hearts of collectors.

As the epitome of elegance, Cartier has consistently been at the forefront of design aesthetics in the world of timepieces since the early 20th century. The Tank collection, which made its debut in 1917, has undergone captivating transformations over the years. Variations such as the Tank Louis Cartier, Tank Chinoise, Tank Cintree, Tank Obus, and Tank Etanché, to name a few, have all contributed to its rich lineage. However, it is the Tank Asymétrique, with its distinctive parallelogramshaped design introduced in 1936, that truly stands out from the pack.
Each timepiece in this collection is a fusion of history, artistry, and craftsmanship, ensuring that Cartier’s legacy endures through generations of watch connoisseurs. Interestingly, the Tank Asymétrique has evolved over time, with the middle lug being removed and later reintroduced in the CPCP version in 2006. Whilst retaining the same 30-degree offset as the numerals on its asymmetrical dial, the current series with a skeletonized dial was introduced in 2020 as part of the Privé Cartier Collection. The lacquer-filled Arabic numerals at 6 and 12 o’clock are framed by the dial’s bridges, serving as hour markers and offering a glimpse of the in-house 9623 MC movement that beats within.
Limited to only 100 pieces in platinum, the current watch bears the number 006 and is accompanied by its full set of accessories. Preserved in excellent condition, this skeletonized Tank Asymétrique represents a truly exceptional release from Cartier that is poised to become highly sought after and collectible in the years to come.

In 2008, A. Lange & Söhne introduced the Cabaret Tourbillon, marking another revolutionary milestone as it was the first wristwatch to feature a mechanism that stops the tourbillon when the crown is pulled out. This innovative yet complicated feature allows for more accurate time-setting. Available in platinum or pink gold cases, the Cabaret Tourbillon was produced for five years before being discontinued and it is estimated that only around 250 pieces were ever made.
The present watch encased in pink gold features a sophisticated threebody case, enhanced by a stepped bezel and distinctive protruding lugs. The elegant silvered dial exhibits a balanced Art Deco design with a power reserve indicator at 4 o’clock and the small seconds at 8 o’clock, creating a perfect symmetrical composition.
Through the sapphire case back, the wearer can appreciate the Maillechort plates and bridges, which are decorated with the signature ribbing pattern and meticulously chamfered to achieve the highest level of finishing. One of the highlights is the unique hand-engraved bridges for the transmission wheel and the tourbillon carriage, showcasing the Lange’s signature pattern. In a nod to their tradition of pocket watches, the tourbillon cage is held by diamond end-stones on both sides.
Exemplifying a fusion of craftsmanship and technological prowess, this minimalist tourbillon wristwatch epitomizes elegance and represents watchmaking excellence from the Glashütte tradition. It is a perfect choice for watch aficionados seeking a timepiece that combines artistry and technical innovation.

Audemars Piguet’s “Minute Repeater Supersonnerie” stands as the epitome of luxury wristwatches, with this complication extending to both dress watches and even Royal Oak cases. This complication represents a true gem in Audemars Piguet’s technical expertise while paying homage to their longstanding history of watchmaking. The original “Concept Supersonnerie” was unveiled in 2014, showcasing Audemars Piguet’s exceptional mastery of complications. The timepiece presented a fresh interpretation of a historic design, aiming to create a loud and melodious tone from a minute repeater.
Designed as a musical instrument, the complication garnered three patents: one for the gongs, one for a refined regulator, and the third for a tone-enhancing caseback with apertures that avoid obstructing the sound, a departure from the norm seen in most repeaters. This allows the watch to produce a louder chime when worn on the wrist compared to when it is not.
The present watch showcases a mesmerizing blue smoky enamel dial, exuding an irresistible charm. The organic nature of enamel and the skillful craftsmanship involved in its production make every dial truly unique. The shades of blue transition from lighter tones at the center to darker hues towards the edges, creating a captivating depth and richness of color. The Roman numerals on the dial are also made from enamel and during the painstaking production process, they were melted and fused into the blue enamel surface.
Further exemplifying the watchmaker’s artistry, the caseback features an engraving depicting a master watchmaker at his workbench. Encased in hefty platinum, the present watch is in nearly new condition, and its minute repeater mechanism is widely regarded as one of the loudest and most sonorous available. It is offered complete with its warranty card and presentation box, presenting a remarkable opportunity for collectors to acquire a truly exceptional timepiece.

To commemorate the firm’s 25th anniversary, the Tonda PF collection was released in August 2021, and it was immediately met by great enthusiasm from the watch community. The Tonda PF models were originally only available in 40 or 42 mm. In response to the requests for smaller case sizes, the present time-only reference was released in 2022 with three variants, all featuring a much smaller case measuring only 36mm in diameter. Although smaller in size, the case design remains perfectly balanced in proportion. The striking elegance of the present timepiece is prompted by the subtle nuanced details on the watch. The Grain d’Orge (meaning barleycorn in french) guilloché on the sand grey dial is awe-inspiring, and the exquisite skeletonized delta-shaped hands are a perfect match for the beautifully polished PF signature. Further coupled with hand applied gold appliques, the dial culminates into a true mastery of tantalizing simplicity. Complementing the exquisite fluting on the platinum bezel, the attractive integrated bracelet not only accentuates the unique sports chic appeal of the timepiece, but also sits comfortably on the wrist. Sitting inside the case, the automatic caliber PF770 decorated with the highest level of finishing is visible via the transparent case back. A 22K pink gold skeletonized rotor adorned with the PF logo can be seen oscillating on top of the beautiful movement, with the base plate decorated with perlage and the bridges with Côtes de Genève. The movement beats at a frequency of 28,800 vibrations per hour and boasts a power reserve of 60 hours. The present example is offered in “like new” condition, and it is complete with its full original accessories. Exuding a discreet elegance and refinement, this minimalistic timepiece with reduced dimensions is a dream for the watch enthusiasts with slender wrists, and it would surely appeal to any knowledgeable and cultured connoisseur.

“Since 1735 there has never been a quartz Blancpain watch. And there never will be.” The incredible revival of Blancpain amidst the quartz crisis is an extraordinary story, and the present Villeret Split Seconds Chronograph reference 1186 has played an essential part as one of 6 masterpieces released by Jean-Claude Biver and Jacques Piguet in the revitalization of the brand.
The present yellow gold example with white dial is a classic beauty coupled with mechanical finesse. The beautifully balanced dial boasts fine details, like the subtle date aperture at the 6 o’clock, and the subtle gold tritium hands and applied Roman numerals. It is further powered by the revered calibre 1186 launched in 1988, the very first automatic split-second chronograph movement ever created. Before then, no split-second chronograph subject to the constraint of a traditional double column-wheel system were self-winding. The movement also only measured at 6.75mm, making it an impressive achievement.
From the esteemed collection of distinguished watch collector Mark Cho, the present example is offered in attractive condition, and accompanied by the original box and additional Blancpain satin and ostrich straps. This timeless classic is a celebrated marriage of technical complexity and exceptional craftsmanship, and it is a musthave for the discerning connoisseurs.

Breitling’s enduring aviation heritage soars with the Navitimer, their iconic pilot’s chronograph. Conceived in 1952 with an integrated circular slide rule for flight calculations, the Navitimer was soon adopted as the official timepiece of the Aircraft Owners and Pilots Association. Through the golden age of aviation, it graced the wrists of leading pilots and astronauts, including Scott Carpenter during the Mercury space program. Celebrated by mid-century cultural figures like Miles Davis for its irresistible style, the Navitimer embodied function and fashion for the jet set.
While remaining true to its roots, Breitling has refined the Navitimer across decades of iterations. This modern example features a hefty 46mm diameter pink gold case and bracelet, while polished and brushed finishes exude subtle luster. The beautifully contrasted silver and black dial and the AOPA wings at 12 o’clock ignite nostalgia. While utilizing new materials, the case and dial optimally capture the spirit of the mid-century icon. Complete with its full set of accessories, this outstanding example in unworn condition allows devotees to experience the quintessence of an enduring aviation legend reborn.

The Montblanc Villeret calibre MB M16.29 is inspired by the original Minerva caliber 17.29 made for wristwatches and pocket watches from the 1930s. The plates and bridges of the movement of the present watch are made in accordance with the highest standards of traditional watchmaking. The circular-grained baseplate is made up of rhodiumplated German silver, and the beautifully hand-chamfered bridges are embellished by circular-graining and Côtes de Genève. Every single component of the column wheel chronograph movement is carried out meticulously by hand and is aligned to enable tolerances of a hundredth of a millimetre.
The present watch further bears the signature of master watchmaker Demetrio Cabiddu on the inner surface of the hinged cuvette, with the winding crown is adorned by the Montblanc symbol set in genuine mother-of-pearl. Numbered 04 in a limited production of only 58 pieces, and offered with its Certificate of Origin and presentation box, this present example is without a doubt an extremely well-executed timepiece of true haute horlogerie.

The Rotonde de Cartier Astrotourbillon introduced in 2010 is a remarkable timepiece that showcases both ingenuity and elegance. Encased in 18K white gold, it deviates from the traditional tourbillon design where the mechanism rotates around its own axis.
Instead, the Astrotourbillon offers a unique viewing experience by employing a special rotational axis positioned at the center of the movement. To achieve balance, a platinum counterweight is concealed beneath the small center dial, and the escapement undergoes a 360-degree rotation, effectively countering the force of gravity. The arrow-pointer bridge right above the balance wheel intelligently indicates the seconds.
Enhancing its appeal, the dial of the Astrotourbillon features a concentric design that adds depth and visual allure. From the outer seconds track to the sunken inner ring with large Roman numerals, and finally the prominent display of the rosette guilloché pattern, the timepiece is undoubtedly a special release from Cartier.

The year 2022 denotes a momentous milestone for Audemars Piguet’s most iconic collection – the ‘Royal Oak’. Marking the iconic design’s 50th anniversary, the manufacture celebrates Gerald Genta’s audacious 1972 creation that captivated a new generation. Audemars Piguet succeeded with panache, experimenting with the famed monobloc case, octagonal bezel and distinctive hexagonal screws, paired with a tapisserie dial across sizes and executions. This encapsulated their spirit of innovation and mastery of complications.
The revered ref. 25829 skeletonized perpetual calendar exemplifies this ethos. Fitted with the cal. 2120/2802 leap year indicator, it improves upon predecessors with refinement. Produced from 1996 to 2013, merely 156 were crafted in prestigious platinum like this outstanding example. Its spectacular skeletonized dial mesmerizes with artful openworking. Substantial yet balanced, this exceptional timepiece will bring joy to connoisseurs.
This present example embodies the Royal Oak’s enduring appeal, blending breakthrough design with artistic excellence. Born with the iconic case and perfected perpetual calendar complication and presented in barely worn condition, it satisfies every collectability criteria.

In an unprecedented collaboration between H. Moser & Cie and The Armoury, the Endeavour Small Seconds Total Eclipse was conceived, embodying the distinct design codes of the star-crossed houses. Despite coming from different industries, the independent watchmaker and menswear brand both have a deep admiration for refinement and utmost elegance. Drawing from the recent Solar Eclipse, the present model was launched in January 2022 with two references, 1327-1200 and 1327-1201, delivered with stainless steel or pink gold accents.
Both references sport a stark Vantablack dial that absorbs 99.965% of the light, mirroring the astronomical phenomena of a backlit moon obstructing the sun. The polished flange around the dial, in steel or pink gold as the choice may be, provides a stellar representation of the solar corona. The Breguet hands and subtle indices create an eye-catching contrast to the Vantablack dial, while simultaneously giving a gracefully understated appearance.
Built upon H. Moser & Cie’s Endeavour series, the case of the watch is distinct with scalloped sides and downturned lugs. Downsized at The Armoury’s request to a discreet 38mm diameter, this stainless steel statement piece is designed to be shown off on important occasions.
The present stainless steel Endeavour Small Seconds Total Eclipse with pink gold accents is one of a limited edition of 28 pieces only. This example offers collectors a wonderful chance to become the proud owner of this small, dark and handsome timepiece.

Poetically named, the Eichi II is quintessential Credor conceived with understated beauty, yet it is considered one of the most horologically compelling watches of our time. In fact, the watch is known in horological circles as the Japanese equivalent of the Philippe Dufour Simplicity.
To mark the 140th anniversary of Seiko’s founding by Kintaro Hattori, Credor launched the present Eichi II ref. GBLT997 in a 39mm platinum case. Singing in serenity, the porcelain dial is hand-painted in a stunning Ruri blue—Japanese word for Lapis lazuli. Featuring a finely executed seconds hand detailed with a Credor “C” tip glides in grace over haloed blue dial. On the reverse of the timepiece is the display of the equally stunning Spring Drive cal. 7R14, arguably the finest creation by Seiko to date, the movement boast simplicity, yet every bevelled edges, mirrorpolished ruby sinks, and heat-blued screws creates a compelling canvas with impeccable finishing. Furthermore, the mainspring is decorated with a Japanese open-worked Bellflower motif that is ever so poetic.
With only two dozen pieces leaving the Studio per year, resulting a demanding waiting list, the present Eichi II is preserved in excellent overall condition. The present lot is accompanied with its original certificate and accessories, making this the perfect opportunity for collectors to snatch this for their own collection without the long wait.

As Victor Hugo has once stated, “Art has two principles, the Idea, which produces European art, and the Chimera, which produces oriental art. The Summer Palace was to chimerical art what the Parthenon is to ideal art.” The DB25 Imperial Fountain series precisely manifests this philosophy with its fascinating mixture of Chinese and Western aesthetics. Based on the DB25 IXème inframonde Maya special series, the Imperial Fountain was a limited-edition series launched in 2013, in sets of 12 pieces, each with one of the twelve Chinese zodiac signs engraved at the center of the dial.
The design of the timepiece was drawn from the famous Chinese zodiac clepsydra at the Old Summer Palace, also known as Yuan Ming Yuan, in Beijing. It features a solid gold dial adorned by a magnificent dragon engraving, meticulously hand-engraved by the master engraver and artist Michèle Rothen. The dragon is set against a backdrop with delicate chased reliefs, surrounded by an hour ring that features blue Chinese calligraphy numerals, an art form that Denis Flageollet practiced privately. An outer ring sculpted with exquisite depictions of the Zodiac signs is a reference to the bronze animal heads surrounding the fountain at the Old Summer Palace. The hours and minutes are displayed by the flame-blued steel hands, in signature De Bethune style, sweeping poetically around the dial periphery, without any obstruction to the sculptural décor. This is achieved by the development of a special micro ball bearings mechanism with a specific toothing profile for the discs required in the transmission.
Offered in attractive condition, and accompanied by its complete set of accessories, the present timepiece is a beautiful union of traditional artistic craftmanship of the highest level and De Bethune’s exceptional horological finesse. We are very pleased to present this extraordinary timepiece to our tasteful collectors in the Year of the Dragon.

PAUL DITISHEIM
OBSERVATORY RATED THREE BRIDGES TOURBILLON
Renowned Swiss watchmaker Paul Ditisheim (1868–1945) revolutionized precision timekeeping through his chronometer research and innovations like the affix balance. By 1903, his watches were honored by the Observatories of Kew and Neuchâtel. In 1912, he achieved the world chronometric record at the Royal Kew Observatory. Ditisheim’s contributions to horology were immense. In 1892, he established his own manufactory in La Chaux-de-Fonds. Ditisheim tirelessly researched and published works on the effects of atmospheric pressure, temperature, and magnetism on chronometric performance. His pioneering improvements in chronometer design included overcoil springs, Guillaume balances, and pivoted detents. Ditisheim’s meticulous refinements propelled timekeeping to new heights, as proven by his record-setting accuracy prizes.

F. J. Britten, Old Clocks and Watches , p. 234, pl. 147
Ditisheim produced very few tourbillons, with noted horology historian Reinhard Meis documenting merely 8 examples. This incredible rarity, along with its Grether carriage, chronometer escapement, and Guillaume balance, suggest potential Girard-Perregaux origins. GirardPerregaux pioneered the three gold bridge movement in 1867, a layout
exposing the bridges in a mesmerizing display of horological artistry. The innovation won a gold medal at the 1889 Paris Exposition. Ditisheim adopted this architecture for the present tourbillon pocket watch.
Tested at the Kew Observatory in 1916 and 1917, it received Class A certificates with exceptional scores as shown on the accompanying certifications, affirming its superlative timekeeping. The movement dazzles with arrow-headed bridges over machined plates and steel carriage. A bi-metallic Guillaume balance, pivoted detent, and blued overcoil optimize precision for this exceptionally accurate 1-minute tourbillon.The yellow gold hunter case exquisitely captures the spirit of the Belle Epoque with masterful hand chasing imparting artistic beauty. On the front, a central panel depicts winged putti joyfully playing with a bird amidst butterflies dancing over flowers. Garlands of blossoms and verdant foliage frame the idyllic scene. A ribbon bow and vase provide finishing accents, with delicacy and vitality animating the composition. On the reverse, music trophies wreathed in flowers and leaves evoke the sounds that might accompany such an enchanting moment. The floral chasing extends fluidly from the case onto the band, enveloping the entirety with vivacious neoclassical ornamentation. The present example is possibly part of the collection from the Time Museum, Rockford U.S.A as prominently illustrated in the Das Tourbillon book by Reinhard Meis in pages 146-147.
Further accompanied by the Observartoire Astronomique Bulletin des Marches Neuchatel, Bulletin des Marches from The National Physical Laboratory Teddington, Middlesex UK and its original red leather box. Together, the sublime horology and craftsmanship transcend function, elevating the timepiece into a breathtaking objet d'art that evokes the soaring creativity of the era. The Belle Epoque springs to life in this exceptionally well-preserved 19th century Paul Ditisheim pocket watch, transformed through beauty and visionary artisanship into a captivating ornate treasure.

The foudroyante (lightning in French) is arguably one of the most visually captivating complications ever created. As today’s collectors scramble for the F.P. Journe Centigraphe or Jaeger LeCoultre Duometre, one would be quite stirred to find the foudroyante on the present pocket watch from more than a century ago. Seeing the small foudroyante hand rotates once a second on the subsidiary dial in four swift jumps, one cannot help but be in awe of the mechanism. The present pocket watch with minute repeater, independent seconds and 1/4 second foudroyante is a delightfully well-preserved example from circa 1900’s, and it provides a fascinating glimpse into the horological world of the past.
F. Luthi, was a watch and clockmaker from Paris known for their spectacular high precision pocket watches and pendulum clocks produced prior to the 1930’s. Signed F. Luthi, Paris, the white enamel dial of the present timepiece is characterized by Arabic numerals, an outer Arabic minute ring and a subsidiary foudroyante dial at the 6 o’clock. The classic dial layout is adorned with a set of blued spade hands, manifesting an elegant simplicity. The watch is further cased in a yellow gold four-body “bassine et filets” keyless hunter case, with a beautifully engraved gold cuvette with an engine-turned edge. The French domestic gold horse head assay mark used from 1847 to 1919 is stamped on the bow, case cover and beneath the crown in remarkable crispness, indicating that the pocket watch has been tested under the standards of the French authorities. Further stamped with a Société Générale des monteurs de boîtes d’or, Besançon hallmark on the case cover, indicating that the casemaker of the pocket watch is a specialist from the city of Besançon in Eastern France, the watchmaking capital of France. Fitted with a glazed gilt brass 19” double train movement with equilibrated straight line lever escapement and Breguet balance spring, the movement of the present timepiece also boasts great technical complexity. The whirling action on the subsidiary foudroyante dial is set off by the activation of a push-piece on the case band, which releases the independent seconds and foudroyante train. Invented in the late eighteenth century, the independent seconds watch has two mainsprings and two wheel trains, and it provides the energy needed to power the whirling foudroyante. Graced with a slide on the side of the case, the minute repeater is activated to chime the hours, quarters and minutes with great tone and clarity.
Offered in excellent condition, the present pocket watch is a superb fusion of quality craftsmanship and mechanical finesse. A mesmerizing relic that has survived through all the turmoil in the history of French watchmaking, it would not fail to enchant horological enthusiasts and neophytes alike.

Founded in Hong Kong in the 19th century by Swiss native Jacques Ullmann, J. Ullmann & Co., Hong Kong, Shanghai, Tientsin was established against the backdrop of the expansion of Swiss watchmaking in the Chinese market. Swiss watches had become very popular in the China region by mid-19th century, partly due to the success of the Bovet brand, selling under the Chinese name “Bo Wei” and became synonymous with “watch” in Chinese culture. By the late 1880s, J. Ullmann & Co. has set up a store in the heart of the Central district in Hong Kong, at 74 Queen’s Road Central. After Jacques Ullmann passed away in 1909, J. Ullmann & Co. continued to expand in China under Bernheim Ullmann, opening branches in Shanghai and Tientsin.
Cased in an exquisitely engine-turned yellow gold hunter case, the present pocket watch features an intricately engraved hinged gold cuvette, a signature J. Ullmann design. The white enamel dial is characterised by a classic design with Roman numerals, subsidiary seconds, and luscious gold hands. Fitted with a gilt keyless lever movement, the present watch is presented with the Grand Sonnerie, meaning that it can automatically chime the hours on every hour and hours and quarters on every quarter. It is often regarded as a grail complication by collectors and hearing it on a century-old pocket watch is always astounding. The present pocket watch also features a carillon minute repeater, meaning the quarters are chimed on three gongs and not on the usual two making it even more complex, rare and collectible. The going and striking trains wound alternately by the crown, quarter striking and minute repeating with three hammers on three gongs.
Preserved in excellent condition, this elusive and rare timepiece offers much more than an exceptional mechanical timekeeping instrument but is an object of art imbued with history and heritage, and it would surely appeal to the horological enthusiasts.

Following the success of their initial collaboration, Phillips and Laurent Ferrier shared the desire to create a limited edition timepiece that would be accessible to all collectors.
A first for Laurent Ferrier, the case design of this collaboration is inspired by the Tre-Tacche models produced by Longines and Omega during the 1940s. Initially, there was a dilemma regarding the dial color, as vintage Tre-Tacche wristwatches typically featured either a silver or glossy black dial. To find the best solution, two variations of a 16-piece limited edition were ultimately created. One variation features a black dial with luminous syringe hands, while the other showcases a more classical dress watch aesthetic with powder pink dials and blued leaf hands.
To further pay homage to watches from that era, Laurent Ferrier incorporated a vintage-inspired logo with a typeface reminiscent of the 1940s. Additionally, the text “Fab. Suisse” and “Swiss Made” located at 6 o’clock are reminiscent of the “double Swiss” dials commonly seen in mid-20th century timepieces.
Turning the watch over, the calibre LF 116.01 reveals an all-new frosted gilt finish across its bridges and plates, providing a reflection of vintage movement finishing. This design is truly breathtaking and serves as an interesting homage to the 1940s. In excellent overall condition and with all the accompanying accessories, we are delighted to present this exceptional timepiece, as it makes its auction debut.

The Schwarz Etienne Roma Synergy by Kari Voutilainen is a collaborative creation between the prestigious Swiss Manufacture, Schwarz Etienne and renowned watchmaker Kari Voutilainen. It boasts a perfectly sized 39mm stainless steel case, a micro-rotor automatic movement, and an exquisitely crafted guilloché dial. Each limited to 50 pieces, it is available in both royal blue and sand grey dial options.
At first glance, the dial captivates with its remarkable depth. It showcases various guilloché patterns, including a ‘soleil’ decoration on the hour track, ‘vague’ guilloché on the small seconds display, and an ‘écailles de poisson’ motif at the center. The combination of these patterns results in one of the most visually appealing dials in the market. The lancine-style hands and indexes ensure clear legibility, while the stepped lugs’ contours enhance its aesthetic allure.
Turning the watch over reveals the in-house automatic cal. ASE 200.00, which is meticulously finished in a truly remarkable manner. The ratchet wheel is embellished with diamond drops and snailing, and the bridges are hand-beveled. The guilloché decoration found on the dial extends to the movement as well. With a rose engine lathe by Les Ateliers Kari Voutilainen, the guilloché pattern emanates from the balance wheel and spreads outwards.
The current collection exemplifies the synergy between these two powerhouse brands, with the success of this collaboration extending to other dial colors introduced in recent years. Preserved in extremely attractive condition and barely worn on the wrist by the owner, this incredible piece of horological artistry is a must-have for discerning connoisseurs.

Headquartered in Dresden, Germany, the independent brand Lang & Heyne was founded in 2001 by two talented young watchmakers, Marco Lang and Mirko Heyne. Embodying the quintessential handcrafted Saxon tradition, their incredible artisanal finesse and philosophy rapidly garnered a cult following among collectors.
Debuted at Baselworld 2013, the present König Albert (King Albert) exudes vintage charm. Its clean platinum case integrates the chronograph pusher seamlessly into the crown, topped by a superb enamel dial with Roman numerals and railway tracks that amplify legibility. Co-axial chronograph hands allow for a balanced design without counters beyond the subtle six o’clock running seconds.
The Lang & Heyne workshop highlights watchmaking’s artisanal side, producing merely 15 screws per day by hand – hard to fathom considering the time required to create each watch. It is thought their yearly production rarely exceeds triple digits, emphasizing meticulous quality over quantity.
Preserved in outstanding condition along with its full set of accessories, this platinum example numbered 7 represents a supremely elegant and refined timepiece certain to entice connoisseurs who appreciate modern classics crafted with respect for tradition. Its limited availability and exquisite details position Lang & Heyne as a rising star among independent watchmaking.

The present Freidrich August I was inspired by a unique and glamorous period of Saxony’s politics and culture under his reign. The model pays homage to the love for art and taste for beauty, evidently on the beautifully sculpted three lugged pink gold case. Proportioned with sophistication and discreet elegance, the present Friedrich August I cased in 43.5mm diameter pink gold with a stunning double sunken enamel white dial features a graceful set of Louis XV styled hands. The minute indication is in red to give the overall timepiece a touch of modernness from its classical design.
On the reserve is a breath-taking exhibition the golden grained in-house Caliber I equipped with a second hand stop mechanism that displays incredible craftsmanship. Each component from the engraved balance cock down to each individual large blued screw is made entirely in-house. The winding wheels feature a stunning snailed finish, and its balance bridge with the elegant swan-neck is crowned by a sparkling diamond on top. Considering that the workshop produces not more than 15 screws a day, it is hard to believe the amount of time Lang & Heyne uses to create an entire wristwatch.
Offered by the original owner and preserved in excellent overall condition, the present example numbered 33 produced from the early years of the Lang & Heyne.
Please note that the proceeds of the sale of the present watch will be given by the Consignor to various charities.

To commemorate the 100th anniversary of German retailer ErdingOrdel in 2006, A. Lange & Söhne released the limited edition 1815 “Cuvette” series. This collection draws inspiration from the pocket watch era of the brand and pays tribute to the golden age of pocket watches.

In line with German precision, the watch incorporates the zero-reset mechanism, allowing for perfect timing setting when the crown is pulled out. Adding to its uniqueness, this reference has an unusually large 40mm diameter. It is powered by the exquisite movement calibre L921.2, which is wound by the iconic SAX-O-MAT off-centred platinum and 21K gold micro rotor.
The 1815 “Cuvette” series is available in both pink gold (please see next lot) and white gold versions, with each variant limited to only 38 pieces. The present lot is the 18K white gold version, numbered 1, making it the very first example ever made.

Introduced in 1995, just a year after its re-birth, the 1815 collection by A. Lange & Söhne was specifically designed to prioritize the legibility of a wristwatch. Released in 2006, the A. Lange & Söhne 1815 “Cuvette” was the first watch from the brand to have a hinged case back and a limited edition series to celebrate the 100th anniversary of German retailer Erding-Ordel.

Fusing delicate designs with everyday function, the Langematik Perpetual is one of the most sought-after interpretations among A. Lange & Söhne’s perpetual calendar variety. The most apparent characteristic of this yellow gold ref. 310.021 is its large date windows at 12. Easily recognisable as one of the first iterations to offer this display, it became a recurring feature included in many of the German watchmakers’ later models. Following this attribute, the traditional perpetual calendar dial layout consists of three smaller subsidiary counters: a moon phase indication, a 24-hour indication, a leap year indication, along with a patented zero-reset mechanism that assures fast and precise time-setting.
The combination of these intricate complications has resulted in a beautifully balanced cream dial framed with an elegant yellow gold case. What makes this present example extra special is its condition. Crisp and untouched since its original purchase, the timepiece has sat in its winding box ever since. Unboxed for the first time, the Langematik Perpetual has developed and intense yellow patina throughout the case. Highly attractive and cherished by the original owner, the A. Lange & Söhne Langematik Perpetual ref. 310.021 is a time capsule collector piece.

1024. PATEK PHILIPPE
An incredibly rare, elusive and superbly attractive pink gold wristwatch with ‘white ceramic’ dial, diamond-set indexes, center seconds, date, bracelet, Certificate of Origin, confirmation letter from Magasin Patek Philippe SA and presentation box, one of four examples known in pink gold
Watch collecting is like a game of hide-and-seek, the watches being the hider, and you the watch collector – the seeker. Ready or not, the scattered are rather good at hiding themselves. Perhaps a ‘game’ that started with hours turned into months, years and even decades, this marathon summons the most passionate and persistent seeker with patience, and sometimes, luck. Those who are in for the long-haul are ignited by the thrill of the hunt of the elusive. Often extremely rare or far from reach, these are the grail watches for the most astute seekers. But look no further, you have found the object of desire, the elusive pink Patek Philippe Nautilus ref. 3800/1.
The Patek Philippe Nautilus needs no further introduction, it is one of, if not the greatest, sports watch of all time. From the first Jumbo ref. 3700 that was penned by Gerald Genta in 1976, a new demand of modestly-sized pieces to a wider audience emerged towards the early 80s. Enters the dawn of the ref. 3800, perfectly positioning itself between its big brother ref. 3700 and elder sister ref. 4700 (27mm diameter) born one year earlier in 1980, the ref. 3800 is sized at 37.5mm diameter and is now considered the quintessential choice for both ladies and gentlemen.
Baton markers, Roman numerals, diamonds, sapphires and emeraldsset markers, you name it, the ref. 3800 enjoyed a much wider range of dial configurations aside from the blue, white or gold dials compared to its siblings. Some of the rarest includes the Arabic numerals telephone dial and the exotic radial dial featuring a grey sunburst finish and painted white markers. Last but not least, the unusual ‘Blanc Ceramique Cadran’ translate as white ceramic dial (also known as cream dial) with a smooth and clean finish extruding its milky charm like no other. They can be found with baton markers or jazzed up with 11 diamonds around the hours like the present specimen. It is notable that while research shown that early date-wheels on the ref. 3700 and ref. 3800 are in black, from 1990 onwards, examples of the ref. 3800 are fitted with white date-wheels.
Like the ref. 3700, the ref. 3800 was produced in a range of metals, from stainless steel being the most common, followed by yellow gold, two-tone gold, white gold, platinum and the most elusive of all, pink gold. Bypassing the radar of many, these pink gold cased specimens are a truly rare breed. According to scholars, only 10 pieces were ever produced in the history of Patek Philippe. Where true connoisseurs would recognise its importance in the history of Nautilus, these 10 pieces were sold at Patek Philippe Genéve in 1990 and only 3 examples have resurfaced in public, until now.

Fresh-to-the-market, the present specimen is the 4th example ever to appear in the auction market. Incredibly rare, it is the 2nd example to bear the dial configuration of the ‘cream dial’ with diamond markers. The first example bears a movement number of 1’428’381 and a case number of 2’876’355 was offered in 2010. Fourteen year since another example has surface in the market, it is only 2 numbers apart from the mentioned, the present example has a case number of 2’876’358.
As far as we know from examples that has surfaced in the market, all pink gold ref. 3800/1 were fitted with a white date-wheel that corresponds to 1990.
Boasting an exceptionally well-preserved pink monobloc case, the gentle cast of warm pink radiates unique charm on this Nautilus. The case proportion is strong, each facet, each curve is well-defined, two strong hallmarks are further stamped behind the lugs. Following through down the ears of the case, the pink gold bracelet is equally gorgeous. Tapered with satin and high-polished links that connects one to the other, it is notable that gold bracelets of the ref. 3800 are thinner compared to the stainless steel version. Balancing the heft of gold throughout, this allows the watch to sit close to the wrist with maximum comfort. Moving on to the buckle that bears the early raised Calatrava cross emblem, as one unfold the clasp reveals a small sun hallmark that denotes its metal. Made in white gold distinguished by the ‘750’ and sun hallmark, these can only be found on gold or platinum models. With corresponding serial number stamped inside its caseback and between the ear, the present specimen of the ref. 3800/1 in pink gold truly ticks every box for all serious collectors.

An incredibly rare, elusive and superbly attractive pink gold wristwatch with ‘white ceramic’ dial, diamond-set indexes, center seconds, date, bracelet, Certificate of Origin, confirmation letter from Magasin Patek Philippe SA and presentation box, one of four examples known in pink gold
Crafted, assembled and delivered to the Magasin Patek Philippe SA in 1990, this pink gold ref. 3800/1 was sold in August of the same year. A true companion that wouldn’t be the same if one separates from the other, we known this thanks to its Certificate of Origin that stayed together with this precious specimen for over 34 years. Giving us further insight into the mystery of the pink Nautilus, alongside is a very special letter that carries the shimmering logo of Patek Philippe Geneve.
Addressed in German, the letterhead from the Patek Philippe Shop on Rue du Rhône Geneva was addressed to a gentleman by the name of Alfred Fischer on 28th August 1990. An exceptional piece of documentation, this letter was signed by André Glad, manager of the Patek Philippe shop. A myth brought to light, the letter mentioned up until date, only 10 examples were made for the ref. 3800/1 in pink gold, and were all sold exclusively through this very shop in Geneva.
Confirmed both by its Certificate of Origin and Patek Philippe Extract from the Archives, the present specimen is a pink gold 3800/1 born with a ‘white ceramic’ dial with 11 diamond hour markers. Furthermore, the archive confirms the date of sale of this timepiece on 28th August 1990, same date presented on the letter by the shop.
Acquired by an astute collector from Germany and kept privately for ten years, PHILLIPS is honoured to present this exquisite ref. 3800/1 in pink to the market. For those who hunts for the ultimate, this is ‘it’, a once in a blue moon opportunity to catch this hidden gem once and for all.

Instantly recognizable by its red and blue Bakelite bezel, with radium filled twenty-four-hour numerals painted on the underside, the reference 6542 was designed to make sure that the viewer can track a second time zone under any weather conditions. Bakelite was chosen as the material for the bezel for its high readability, but due to its brittleness, Rolex quickly resolved to replace the Bakelite with metallic bezel insert. The reference 6542 was only in production for only 4 years from 1955 to 1959, adding to its exclusivity and rarity.
The present example is distinguished by its wonderfully preserved Bakelite bezel, which has morphed into a stunning hue of burgundy red and midnight blue with the passage of time. The tropical gilt dial with its glossy surface radiating an array of brownness, arranging from tobacco to dark chocolate, under different lighting. On top of that, the luminous material on the bezel, dial and hands have aged to a tantalising caramel hue. It glows enchantingly in consistent brightness and intensity when put under UV light, rendering an irresistible splendor.
Bearing case number 482’740 with case back stamped “II 59”, the present timepiece comes with a Rolex Oyster riveted bracelet stamped 65, and period correct big logo clasp stamped “1 59”. The present timepiece further has close case number proximity with a few previously sold examples. A notable example is one with case number 482’987 from circa 1959 that was sold at Phillips & Blackbird: SPORTS in May 2019 with a result of HK$2,500,000.
The present GMT-Master reference 6542 from circa 1959 is presented in superb condition. The delicate Bakelite bezel has stood the test of time and is remarkably well-preserved considering its age. The gilt dial has aged beautifully and reacts strongly under the geiger counter, and the case has retained strong proportions. Such extraordinary gem is tremendously hard to come by, and this high-quality example will surely allure watch connoisseurs and neophytes alike from around the world.

The Rolex “Pre-Daytona” reference 6238 holds a significant place in their history of chronographs. It served as a precursor to the iconic Daytona collection, which remains one of the most coveted sports watches to this day. Produced between 1960 and 1967, the reference 6238 was available in various case and dial combinations, including steel, gold, and a range of dial colors such as silver, black, and rarer versions with blue or blue and red multiscale.
Despite sharing a similar case size and pushers with its contemporary, the first Cosmograph Daytona reference 6239, the reference 6238 was exclusively offered with a monochromatic dial. It marked the end of an era as the last Rolex chronograph to feature a smooth bezel and a tachymeter scale printed on the dial. Subsequent Daytona models would feature the tachymeter scale on the bezel instead.
The present reference 6238 watch features a dial with black and blue scales, a combination typically seen in the predecessor reference 6234. This dial configuration is not uncommon for early reference 6238 watches, as they were produced during the transition period when the reference 6234 was being phased out. Rolex often used dials from discontinued models in subsequent references, showcasing the overlap and continuity of their designs.
In overall excellent and attractive condition, the present reference 6238 holds importance as it marked the end of the “Pre-Daytona” era and paved the way for the creation of the highly popular Daytona collection tailored for racing drivers.

The Rolex Cosmograph Daytona is undeniably an iconic timepiece that has secured its place in the history books of horology. Since its initial release in 1963, Rolex has consistently enhanced both the aesthetics and reliability of the collection. Starting with the original steel bezel, pump pushers, and caliber 722, the collection has evolved and culminated in the reference 6263.
The reference 6263 features screw down pushers, which not only enhance the waterproofness of the “Oyster” case but also make the watch more durable and suitable for professional use. Additionally, the upgrade to an acrylic bezel provides improved scratch resistance and offers a striking contrast against the silvered dial. One notable characteristic of this timepiece is the coveted “big red” Daytona print located at 6 o’clock, a feature that has continued to be sought-after in modern Daytonas.
This particular example was manufactured circa 1986, near the end of its production before Rolex transitioned to exclusively using automatic movements in the collection. Among the vintage Daytonas, the silvered dial 6263 is considered one of the most well-balanced configurations. Furthermore, the condition of this watch adds to its collectability, making it a highly desirable piece for vintage watch enthusiasts.

The Rolex Submariner ref. 16800 series introduced in 1979 represents a significant chapter in the history of the Submariner. It succeeded the ref. 1680 series, which was the first Submariner to include a date function. While the overall aesthetics of the ref. 16800 remained similar to its predecessor, the replacement of the plexi glass with a scratch-resistant sapphire crystal was a groundbreaking development in the watchmaking industry. The ref. 16800 also introduced the calibre 3035 movement, which included a practical quick-set date function that could be adjusted via the crown at 3 o’clock. Additionally, a unidirectional rotating bezel was incorporated, rotating only counterclockwise to enhance safety during dives.
Among the ref. 16808 series, two variants were created, with the first featured a blue dial and a matching blue bezel insert, while the second had a black dial with a black bezel insert. Production of the ref. 16808 ended in 1987, with its stainless steel counterpart ceasing production the following year.
The present watch is a beautifully preserved example with an unusual and special matte blue dial. Positioned between the standard black matte dial and the blue radial dial, this highly sought-after “nipple dial” is believed to be one of the experimental test dials that Rolex used to explore variations in their catalog. Despite over 40 years of age, the dial has aged beautifully and is very well-preserved, maintaining its excellent overall condition. Furthermore, the watch is accompanied by its original guarantee. With its unique and rare dial, this early gold Submariner ref. 16808 is sure to attract attention as one of the most appealing and distinctive examples available in the market.

The Daytona known as the Rolex’s crown jewel is without doubt one of the most highly collectible chronographs of all time. During the evolution of the coveted model, Rolex ventured to incorporate precious stones to their sought-after sports model. In the 1980s with the launch of bejeweled reference 6269 and 6270 with exceptional gem-setting quality by the firm, these opulent configurations attracted new crowds.
Launched in 2000s and exuberance in design, the present reference 116568 is not only an early P series example fitted with the new Rolex caliber 4130, but also adorned with a beautiful baguette-cut diamonds studded bezel, adding to its attraction, the chronograph also features an extremely rare configuration with the elusive black dial with diamond-set hour markers. Cased in the warmth of yellow gold, the ebony black dial in contrast with the sparkling diamondsset bezel strikes a perfect balance and is extremely sophisticated. Rarely resurfacing to the market, the present early example offered in extremely well-preserved condition. Discontinued and no longer in production, this exceptional bejeweled timepiece is a stunning addition to one’s collection.

The ref. 16018 marked a significant milestone as the first Datejust to feature a sapphire crystal. Encased in 18K yellow gold and adorned with a deep, captivating lapis lazuli dial, the present timepiece epitomizes elegance. Lapis lazuli, renowned for its vibrant hues, has been treasured by Ancient Egyptian and Roman rulers, as well as Renaissance painters like Vermeer. In this timepiece, Rolex skillfully combines the majestic allure of lapis lazuli with a complementary yellow gold case, resulting in a motif of timeless luxury.
Each lapis lazuli dial is unique in appearance due to the naturally occurring calcite and pyrite deposits within the stone. The present timepiece is in superb condition, boasting a very well-preserved dial with subtle hints of pyrite flecks. Its case is exceptionally well kept, showcasing sharp edges and minimal signs of wear. It is worth noting that while stone dials are often associated with the Day-Date model, they are rarer to find on a Datejust, making this timepiece even more special.

Hardstone dials are undoubtedly one of Rolex’s signature and most coveted dials in the current market. These dials not only offer a wide range of colors, textures, and visual appeal, their production is a challenging and meticulous process. Since natural hardstones have varying hardness and composition, it makes them fragile and very difficult to work with. It is believed that a significant portion of the material is wasted during the manufacturing process, resulting in dials that often differ in thickness compared to regular ones.
The present Rolex Datejust ref. 16238 exemplifies one of the most sought-after hardstone dials of recent times: onyx. With its glossy, opaque appearance and wax-like luster, onyx ranks 6.5-7 on the Mohs scale of hardness. It harmoniously complements the iconic yellow gold case, and the diamond indexes at 6 and 9 o’clock add a touch of glamour and contrast against the black surface.
The watch is further accompanied by a period-correct yellow gold Jubilee bracelet, perfectly matching the overall aesthetic. With a wellpreserved case and a flawless dial, it is a highly desirable timepiece for discerning collectors.

The allure of hardstone dials lies in their individuality, given no two pieces of stone are identical, making each watch truly unique. However, the manufacturing process is arduous, as stone cutting carries a high risk of cracking, resulting in a meticulous and challenging craftsmanship.

In impeccable condition, the lapis lazuli retains its pristine beauty, showcasing an enthralling texture that sets it apart from any other stone.

Milano dated April 1955, Gobbi Certificate of Origin dated 11th June 1956, product literature and fitted presentation box. Further accompanied by Patek Philippe Extract from the Archives confirming production of the present watch with applied gold hour markers in 1952 and its subsequent sale on April 14th, 1955.
Introduced to the market in 1943, the reference 1579 is highly regarded for its distinctive faceted lugs, nicknamed “spider lugs” by collectors due to their unique shape. With a diameter of 36mm, the case of this timepiece was oversized for its time, a characteristic that adds to its desirability today.
At first glance, the remarkable condition of the case immediately catches the eye. The delicate angles of the lugs are notoriously difficult to preserve, yet this case has retained its sharpness flawlessly. The hallmarks on the caseband and beneath the lug are well-preserved and legible, while the last three digits of the case number engraved at the inner top left lug are clear and crisp. The dial is also exceptionally wellpreserved, with the enamel perfectly raised. Of particular note is the signature of the renowned Italian retailer, Gobbi, Milano, which remains beautifully crisp on the dial. This particular timepiece is one of only nine pink gold reference 1579s to feature the Gobbi signature on the dial. Notably, it is the second time this watch has become available on the market, having previously been sold as part of the original owner’s family collection. Since then, the watch has been meticulously cared for and has seen minimal wear.
The true treasure, however, lies within the accompanying accessories. This watch is accompanied by its original Patek Philippe Certificate of Origin in 1955, presentation box, as well as the original pamphlets and Certificate of Origin from Gobbi, Milano themselves. The Extract from the Archives further confirms the manufacture of the watch in 1952 and its subsequent sale on 14th April 1955. This comprehensive set of accessories further enhances the collectability and incredible provenance of the timepiece.

Delivered with Patek Philippe Extract from the Archives confirming the configuration of the pink dial and date of manufacture of the present timepiece in 1943 and its subsequent date of sale on 29th July 1944.
During its more than thirty years of production, the Patek Philippe ref. 570 was cased in predominantly in yellow gold and rarely in pink gold, white gold, stainless steel and platinum. All cases for the reference were made by Antoine Gerlach, a prolific mid-century casemaker company, known for producing watch cases with beautiful sharp case lines, as seen on the reference 96, 3448 and pocket watch reference 844.
Over the course of time, the production of the reference 570 has evolved to manifest a multitude of dial variations, combined with either subsidiary or sweep centre seconds, the latter with calibre 12 SC or 27 SC. The present reference 570 features a very rare case, dial and movement combination.
The pink gold case houses an exquisite “two-tone” pink dial with Arabic and baton numerals. The enamel signature and outer minute ring on the dial remain beautifully raised even with the passage of time. Inside the case, it is driven by the first series manual calibre 12’’’120 SC, a sophisticated indirect centre seconds mechanism modified by Victorin Piguet, which is one of the earliest movements to feature central sweep seconds in the history of watchmaking.
To the best of our knowledge, only 36 examples of reference 570 in pink gold with pink dial are known publicly on the auction market, and only 5 examples were fitted with an indirect seconds mechanism.
Remarkably elegant, iconic and rare, the present “pink on pink” example is preserved in excellent condition with beautiful proportions, and well-preserved brushed and polished surfaces. It is further enhanced by a very crisp initials engraving “J.P.C.” on the case back, and strong hallmarks on the case band and upper left lug.

Delivered with Patek Philippe Extract from the Archives confirming production of the present watch in 1957 and its subsequent sale on 11th February, 1959
Adorned with an understated and sophisticated elegance, the Patek Philippe reference 2584 is amongst the one of the earliest automatic wristwatches manufactured by Patek Philippe. Made during a short production span from 1957 to 1960, it was made predominantly in yellow gold and pink gold, with a few exceptions in white gold and steel. It is estimated that only approximately 500 examples in all metals were ever produced.
Not only is the reference 2584 one of firm’s rarest time-only models, but the present example also features a charismatic Hölscher signature (one of Patek Philippe’s distinguished retailers in Cologne, Germany), adding to the desirability and collectability of this classic dress watch. The watch is powered by the iconic automatic caliber 12-600, which is often renowned as one of the most beautiful vintage automatic wristwatch movement ever created. With finishing of the highest standard, it features a Gyromax balance and an 18k gold guilloché rotor. It is further attested by and stamped with the Geneva seal.
To the best of our knowledge, the present example is the only one known reference 2584 in yellow gold with silvered dial retailed by Hölscher that has appeared publicly on the auction market to date. Offered in very appealing condition, and delivered with a Patek Philippe Extract from the Archives confirming production of the present watch in 1957, this timepiece is a splendid addition to any connoisseurs’ collection.

The reference 3435 was introduced in 1960 as a successor to the reference 2584 (see previous lot), sharing similar aesthetics and appeal with a smaller 34mm case size. When discussing vintage Patek Philippe automatic calibers, the cal. 12-600 often comes to mind as it powers the iconic reference 2526. However, the present watch is equipped with the updated cal. 27-460, which showcases an updated Gyromax balance wheel with a Breguet hairspring and a revamped rotor ball bearing. This caliber continued to pave the way for future complications, including the first automatic date reference 3445 and even the 3448 perpetual calendar.
The present watch boasts straight lugs and a special snap-on back with a raised edge that provides additional protection against moisture. This feature has contributed to the well-preserved condition of the dial, which exhibits a clean surface and prominently raised enamel signatures. Notably, the dial of this watch bears a rare co-signature “Jost” at the small seconds register. The exact date of when this official retailer opened to the public is uncertain, but the business was founded by Bernardo Jost, a Swiss gentleman who relocated to Genoa, Italy. Although the shop has permanently closed, it remains a significant part of the city’s history, particularly for collectors and the world of watchmaking.
With less than 500 examples of reference 3435 were made in total, only a handful are even equipped with a co-signature. To the best of our knowledge, the present watch is fresh-to-the-market and the only one known in yellow gold with the "Jost" signature, making it a truly exceptional timepiece to own.

Cartier is known for countless emblematic pieces, from their famed Flamingo brooch, to their classic Panthère collection, and their legendary line of elegant “Tank” wristwatches, produced since 1917. Perhaps most iconic and mysterious is the “Crash” – one of the most recognised and cherished horological gems on the market today.
From its original iteration in 1967 to the 21st century re-issues, the watch embodies the unconventional and swinging decade of the 1960s with an unmistakably unique look, and the genius craftsmanship of the Cartier atelier. Over the years, there has been much speculation about the design, from some believing incorrectly the unusual case was based on Salvador Dali’s “Persistence of Memory” to the rumour it was a Maxi Baignoire Alongée, which melted during a car accident, and returned to Cartier for restoration. The reality is the design was the brainchild of Jean-Jacque Cartier and designer Rupert Emmerson. The original Crash model was released at Cartier London in 1967 and was made from a modified Maxi Baignoire Alongée. Since then, the brand has released other versions over the decades from a new London Crash from the 1980s, to a limited edition platinum Paris model in the 1990s, as well as a limited edition run of 400 from Paris in 1991.
Today, the Cartier Crash has become somewhat of a cultural icon, adorning the wrists of celebrities and artists alike. It represents everything that Cartier is best known for: merging design, form and function together which transforms a timepiece beyond a “watch” and into a piece of art. The present 21st century example in pink gold, with its amazing, dream-like curved form, is preserved in outstanding condition from the original owner with barely any signs of wear – a chance for the connoisseur to acquire Cartier’s most radical watch design in such condition is an extremely rare opportunity not to be missed.

A sensation upon its launch commanding a long waiting list with its release in 2023, the Cartier Baignoire mini bangle took the world by storm with its dazzling selection of yellow gold, white gold with pave diamonds, and pink gold (like the present example). The French Maison’s iconic oval shaped timepiece with a heritage since 1912 and further evolved to the familiar bathtub shape in 1958, the name “Baignoire” was officially bestowed upon the collection in 1973.
Brilliantly blurring the boundaries between jewellery and horology, part wristwatch, part bangle, the Baignoire mini emphasize on its purity of lines and curves with elegance and was available in two sizes: 15 and 16 (present example).
Boasting iconic Cartier DNA under its domed crystal, the Roman numerals are printed with a warm brown colour that seamlessly matches the warmth of the pink gold case. Perfect for the free spirited individual, this stylish Baignoire would look equally charismatic when stacked with jewellery and bracelets on the wrist. Time to rock this talk of the town and skip the waiting list.

Making timeless design is truly a forte for Cartier, and this Tank Chinoise CPCP truly exemplifies this statement. A design born in 1922, an entire century ago dating back to the maison’s early days, Louis Cartier travelled far and wide to search for inspiration from the exotics, the mysterious “Far East” to build the family empire. From architecture, artworks, chinoiseries and many more, the influence of East Asian art was a hit during the mid-18th century. Taking the linear language seen from his travels, a new breed of Cartier Tank was born, the Tank Chinoise.
The square is a foundational element amongst Chinese culture, symbolizing the shape of earth and balance. Combined with the iconic Tank with two bold brancards, the design of the Tank Chinoise remained nearly unchanged throughout 100 years.
The present Tank Chinoise CPCP celebrates this exceptional creation by staying true to its original with a modern touch. Recreated during the Collection Privée era begun from 1998, the present edition was exclusively produced for 3 years from 2005 to 2008 and was available in two metals: pink gold and platinum. Defined with the same silhouette like its original design from 1922, the modern iteration is sized up to fit today’s taste. Furthermore, the dial features the “Cartier Paris” signature on top of an exquisite guilloché dial that radiates from its iconic CPCP rosette motif from the centre. Boasting all distinctive elements of the CPCP collection, the Tank Chinoise is a must have for Cartier collectors.

The Rolex Day-Date collection introduced in 1956 has long been regarded as the epitome of elegance and luxury. Known as their flagship collection, the Day-Date has exclusively been offered in precious metals, with only a few stainless steel prototype exceptions. Among the precious metal variants, those crafted in platinum are particularly rare and highly sought after by collectors.
A quick glance at the dial of this particular Day-Date reveals that it is an incredibly rare bespoke dial. Rolex was known to personalize dials according to the requests of their most esteemed clients, often adding a company logo or an initial of the discerning collector. The present example is exceptional not only because it is one of the earliest bespoke dials seen on the market dating back to around 1961 but also because it is a non-luminous dial, lacking any luminescent material on the indexes or the unusual Dauphine hands.
These extremely rare non-luminous dials produced in the past were mostly directed to the Japanese market. This particular dial is co-signed “M. Kubo” at 6 o’clock, indicating that this watch may have been created as a special request for a highly esteemed private Japanese client.
The ref. 1804 belongs to the early 4-digit reference Day-Date series, characterized by the absence of a quickset day or date function. The “4” in the reference number signifies Rolex’s use of diamonds on the bezel, making the ref. 1804 the crown jewel among the early Day-Date models. Together with many other precious metal Rolexes, the case of this watch was made by Genex S.A. and is marked with the Geneva Key No.12 on the inner caseback. The remarkable state of preservation is evident, with a crisp Ibex hallmark visible beneath the lug. Adding to its appeal, the watch comes fitted with an exemplary and correct platinum President bracelet, featuring a folding clasp that can be dated to the 2nd quarter of 1962.

During the 1960s and 1970s, Rolex received exclusive orders to create specific timepieces for various military organizations and air forces, such as the Peruvian Air Force (Fuerza Aérea del Perú “FAP”) for their pilots. These tool watches were often modified to meet specific requirements, and in some cases, high-ranking members of these organizations were provided with specially ordered Rolex watches. These modified timepieces would feature engravings of issue numbers on the caseback and sometimes the whole or partial case number on the inner caseback.
The present reference 6265 is one such special issued watch with a correct 3-million range serial number. It is distinguished by the engraving of the last three digits of the case number “866” on the inner caseback. Notably, there is a small hole on the outer caseback near the “teeth”, as seen in examples of Rolex engraved casebacks. This hole was used to secure the caseback while Rolex engraved the markings. However, the present caseback does not contain any engravings, which could possibly be due to the fact that this particular example was initially intended to be delivered to the military but was cancelled and sent to the civilian market.
It is remarkable that this watch has been well-preserved and retains its original case proportions, correct early bezel, crown, and pushers. This example circa 1973 belongs to the earlier productions of the reference 6265, and it features the rare “Sigma” symbol at 6 o’clock, indicating the use of precious metal on the indexes. Adding further to its rarity, the “Rolex Oyster Cosmograph” signature is positioned farther from the crown in these earlier examples.

The Rolex Day-Date ref. 18239, introduced in the late 1980s, marked an important evolution for the storied model. Along with other contemporaneous references, the ref. 18239 incorporated upgrades that enhanced both robustness and practicality – hallmarks of the Rolex brand. Most significantly, it was powered by the new cal. 3155, Rolex’s first movement to feature a double quick-set function. This mechanism allowed for rapid adjustment of both the day and date indications via the crown – a major convenience for wearers.
By the late 1980s, the Day-Date had already cemented its status as an enduring icon following its debut in 1956. Nicknamed the “President’s Watch,” it had accrued prestige and renown as the timepiece of choice for presidents, CEOs, and dignitaries across generations. Consequently, any changes to such a historic reference from Rolex were bound to generate interest amongst collectors and aficionados.
And interest has certainly flourished in recent times, as the Day-Date enjoys resurgent popularity among modern collectors. The present ref. 18239 from circa 1990 with a “E” serial number embodies an excellent example of unpolished case with sharp edges. Its sunburst silver dial harmonizes elegantly with diamond-set indexes, conveying subtle luxury. Sleek and versatile, this Day-Date exemplifies the enduring appeal of Rolex’s masterful design.

Often nicknamed the “President’s watch”, the Rolex Day-Date collection has achieved an iconic status since its initial release in 1956. Renowned for its use of precious metals, the Day-Date offers a diverse range of options within the Rolex lineup. It is available in various sizes and dial materials, dial configurations, and even gem-set variations.
The present Day-Date stayed true to its roots with a 36mm case diameter. Identified as ref. 18039, it was introduced by Rolex in 1978 as an upgrade to the beloved ref. 1803. The new iteration incorporated the caliber 3055 movement with a practical quick-set date function. Encased in 18K white gold, the current example showcases a rare black dial with Roman numeral hour markers. While the majority of Day-Date models are found in yellow gold cases, the white gold version is notably rare and collectible, especially since the present example is preserved in exceptional condition with its caseback sticker remaining intact.

The Nautilus needs no introduction – even for non-enthusiasts, its allure is undeniable. In 2006, Patek Phillippe launched ref. 5800 alongside epochal contemporary models like the ref. 5711, 5980 and 5712, heralding the return of the coveted mid-size variant, previously known as ref. 3800.
This reference represents a transitional fusion of past and present, with a mere one-year production run. Encased in stainless steel, the ref. 5800 retains the timeless aesthetic of the monobloc case and integrated sapphire display caseback.
At 38mm diameter, the present example’s case is slightly larger than the original fun-sized 37.5mm diameter, yet keeps the signature deep blue ribbed dial. Within beats Patek Philippe’s cal. 330 SC, bearing the prestigious Geneva Seal.
Offered in barely worn condition complete with its full set of accessories, this 2007 Nautilus ref. 5800 represents an ideal opportunity for discerning collectors to acquire one of the most exotic stainless steel iterations of this iconic model ever produced. Its rare pedigree, transitional status and remarkable condition beckon those who appreciate prominent Patek Philippe milestones encapsulating the old and new.

In 1858, the British Crown took back the charter from the East India Company and began ruling India directly, while Queen Vitoria was further proclaimed as Empress of India in 1877, the crown’s undoubted sovereignty brought the first period which marks the predominance of British Horology. In 1890 until 1947, a great Swiss era followed for the Indian market flourished with Swiss made timepieces. The landscape of the country during the mid-19th century was also bustling, divided into over 562 Princely states, each one was headed by either a Raja or Maharaja, Rana, Nizam; all which their magnificence and wealth are legendary.
Being the key importer of Bombay, Marcks and Co. was the sole source for royalties and aristocrats to get their hands on majestic timepieces such as grand complication, perpetual calendars and repeaters. The pocket watches during that era had specific characteristics, solid gold hunter-cased and often richly decorated with coat of arms, jewelled or arabesque and motifs. Curvettes were also engraved with flower motifs near the opening groove. The dials were often embellished
with painted portraits of nobleman in enamel. It is also notable that the major supplier of these high quality movements was one of the most established master who specializes in Grande Complication, Henri Grandjean. In 1851, at the first Universal Exposition in London, Grandjean received a First Class medal. His list of medals continues until 1868, the year in which the company won an award for its marine chronometers. A name closely connected to Le Locle, theres even a street named after the master.
Commissioned by likely a Maharajah or a Nizam in circa 1890 to C. Marcks & Co., Bombay & Poona, the present exquisite example from Marcks & Co. is a matching pair of Grande and Petite Sonnerie striking chronograph hunter-cased keyless pocket watches. The heavy gold full hunter-cased timepieces are impressive and captivating in its own right. The Grande and Petite Sonnerie striking complication is unquestionably the highest of all complications and represents the very finest watchmaking skills. Combining a quarter striking mechanism with a minute repeater, it provides an audible striking as it passes each quarter hour, and a minute repeating function is available on demand via the slider on the case band.
The former of the set is fitted with minute repeater and the latter with quarter repeater, both activated by the striking and silence selector on the edge of the bezel.
Comissioned by a cultured nobleman who perhaps was well versed in the customs and manners of English culture especially horse racing. Evidently engraved with horse shoes as hour markers around the gold champlevé dial, a graceful jockey in blue attire is painted in the centre of each timepieces.
An absolutely charming and possibly unique pair presented in excellent overall condition and kept in a private collection since it last appeared publicly. The hallmarks remains deep and intact, in fact, both are stamped with the domestic gold Helvetica hallmark with a small L, the stamp denotes that the piece was from the period of 1880–1934 from Le Locle.

Introduced around the late 1930s, the Rolex ref. 3834 was available in various materials, but the current pink gold example has one of the rarest materials in the market. It is particularly remarkable for its exceptional case and dial quality as it is increasingly rare to find watches that have been well-preserved for 80 years.
The three-body case made by Gunther & Co SA (Poinçon de Maître number 117) with a snap on back is simply beautiful, featuring uniquely proportioned faceted lugs. The watch is equipped with the renowned Valjoux 69 caliber, which is highly appreciated among collectors. The combination of the pink gold case and the sought-after pink dial creates a perfect blend of attractive elements. The eccentric outer black tachymeter scale, vivid inner blue telemeter scale, and rare black indexes further contribute to its appeal. The pronounced step on the registers and crisp grooves, surrounded by the rare railway track enhance the incredible condition of the dial. Not to mention the case back also retains clear engravings of the case and reference numbers.
What makes this example particularly significant is the double signature “Ronchi Milano” located just below the Rolex signature. Ronchi of Milano was established in 1929 and continues to be an authorized retailer of Rolex, marking a nearly century-long partnership. Due to its extreme rarity, this is the first “Pink on Pink” ref. 3834 offered in Phillips, and only a few examples have ever surfaced in auction history. Coming from a distinguished Japanese collector, the watch has been part of this collection for over 10 years, making it undeniably one of the most exceptional gems in Rolex’s celebrated chronograph family.

Property from an Important Asian Collector 重要亞洲私人收藏
Inspired by the time-only reference 530, the chronograph variant 530 is an incredibly rare watch, so rare that it was never featured in any Patek Philippe catalogue. The earliest examples date back to 1937, while the last ones were produced in 1962, giving the reference a production span of just over two decades. However, it seems to have been an exclusive timepiece offered to VIP collectors who desired a larger-sized chronograph than the standard production reference 130.
To put this into perspective, its smaller counterpart, the ref. 130, is believed to have been made in approximately 1,500 pieces. In the case of the chronograph 530, only a handful of these watches are known to exist, with literature suggesting that around 140 pieces were made in yellow gold, pink gold, and stainless steel. Out of the 140 examples, approximately 30 were made in pink gold, making it one of the scarcest serially produced pink gold chronograph wristwatches by Patek Philippe. Notably, about half of these pink gold examples have resurfaced in the market.
Boasting a large 36.5mm case diameter, it was very unusual for a vintage Patek Philippe and the concave bezel makes it a very attractive timepiece even in modern days. One interesting aspect of this model is that it can feature two different lug designs. Some have a lug gauge of 21.5mm, while others, like the present watch, have a 19mm gap, giving it a more masculine and modern appearance. The reference 530 is powered by the Valjoux-based 13’’’ caliber, and the cases were made by one of the best casemakers at that time George Croisier, as identified by the “5” inside a key stamped to the inside case back.
When the watch originally appeared on the market, the dial showed very prominent signs of aging. However, it has been professionally cleaned, bringing back its original shine and beauty. With its exceptionally sharp case, crisp hallmarks on the band, and an equally impressive dial, this timepiece would undoubtedly be considered one of the crown jewels in any of the world’s most important vintage watch collections.

Literature
This model is prominently featured and illustrated in the book “Longines Through Time”, published by Longines, pp. 132-133.
In the 1950s, with the advent of long-range commercial air travel, some watchmaking companies forged partnerships with major airlines to develop watches specifically tailored to the needs of pilots. Among these companies, Longines has a rich history of producing innovative aviator timepieces, including the renowned Lindbergh Hour Angle and Weems Second Setting models, which were designed in collaboration with the pioneering American aviator, Charles Lindbergh.
Swissair, the former national airline of Switzerland that operated from 1931 to 2002, approached Longines to create a wristwatch for their pilots. In addition to its oversized pilot-style case with an onion crown, this watch boasted a distinctive 24-hour dial that ensures optimal legibility. Our research indicates that these special watches were exclusively given to Swissair pilots and staff members and were never made available to the general public.
The present reference 6630 is believed to be part of a limited series of less than 100 examples ever produced. The back of the watch is engraved with the name of the company and an issue number, such as “60” in this particular watch. The Extract of the Archives accompanying the watch further confirms that it was sold directly to Swissair, highlighting the direct collaboration between the airline and Longines, rather than being distributed through their dealers.
The same reference was sold previously at our Geneva Watch Auction: XIII in 2021 for CHF138,600. Exceptionally well-preserved, the present example retains sharp engravings on the caseback and a dial that exhibits minimal signs of aging. It is accompanied by the original presentation box adorned with the “Swissair” insignia, an incredibly rare and charming detail that adds to its uniqueness.

The constellation is one of Omega’s oldest collections. It was originally launched in 1952, as the firm’s very first self-winding chronometer wristwatch, and has undergone a multitude of transformations. Over time, it has developed into a fascinating watch collection fusing limitless creativity with timeless elegance. It was made available in various case metals with three grades of finishing including standard, deluxe and grand luxe.
The name constellation refers to the Geneva Observatory emblem with eight stars engraved on the case back. Each star represents a chronometer record that Omega has achieved between 1933 and 1952. With the classic dome dial, straight lugs and concealed crown, the present example encased in white gold exudes refined aesthetics and has been cemented as an archetypal dress watch.
The present example is offered in excellent condition with the original plexiglass bearing the Omega logo at the centre. Further presented with a white gold Milanese braided bracelet, this beautiful white gold example is an epitome of elegance and a highly wearable piece of artifact attesting to Omega’s continual pursuit of perfection and precision.

Founded in 1960 with the explicit aim of challenging the dominance of Swiss watchmaking, Grand Seiko has consistently strived to create technically advanced and exquisitely crafted timepieces.
Just six years after its establishment, in 1966, Grand Seiko introduced its own certification, known as the “Grand Seiko Standard”. With a daily deviation of -3/+5 seconds, it surpassed the accuracy of Swiss chronometer testing, which allowed for a range of -1/+10 seconds per day. Building on this achievement, Grand Seiko went a step further and launched the VFA (Very Finely Adjusted) collection in 1969.
Crafted under highly rigorous conditions and regulated to a remarkable precision of -2/+2 seconds per day, these watches were exceptionally accurate for their time. They even came with a guarantee of accuracy within a minute per month for the first two years of ownership, an achievement that remains impressive even by today’s standards. These VFA timepieces are incredibly rare due to their short three-year production run, and many of them were lost over the years.
In addition to its remarkable movement, the ref. 6185-8021 is celebrated for its stunning design. With a silver dial and a geometric case, the ref. 6185-8021 is a masterpiece of monochromatic aesthetics. Another noteworthy detail on the dial is the discreet “Suwa Seikosha” logo, positioned below the VFA signature. This logo represents one of two facilities established by the parent Seiko group, fostering healthy competition with the “Daini Seikosha” facility in the belief that it would lead to improved timepieces.
However, the most distinctive design element of this particular timepiece is its three-dimensional hour markers, which stand tall on the dial. As light moves across the display, these markers cast captivating shadows, creating a visually captivating and unique effect on the wrist.

Nicknamed the “Golden Circle”, the Patek Philippe ref. 3604 belongs to the Ellipse collection and is one of the largest vintage models created, featuring a case measuring 35.5mm in both width and length. Introduced in 1971, it marked the first appearance of the reliable and slim self-winding calibre 28-255 C, which carried the prestigious Geneva Seal and would later be utilized in the Nautilus ref. 3700. The ref. 3604 was exclusively manufactured in 18K white gold or yellow gold, and it is estimated that approximately 1,900 examples of this reference were made until its discontinuation in 1980.
The present ref. 3604 in yellow gold showcases an attractive blue sunburst dial, while its “TV screen” shape fully exemplifies its generous proportions. Finding a vintage wristwatch of significant size, particularly one from the esteemed Patek Philippe brand, can be incredibly challenging. With the Ellipse collection having increased popularity in the current market, this presents an excellent opportunity to acquire a fantastic example of the “Golden Circle”.

Shrouded in mystery, this rare 14K gold-plated Tank belongs to the scarcely seen “Stepped Case” series from the 1970s – a phantom of the past treasured by scholars of vintage Cartier. With its bold proportions, the watch bears a captivating wrist presence. The stepped bezel dramatically frames the handsome black dial and painted gold Roman numerals, along with sword hands that reflect a 1970s reinterpretation of the Tank’s iconic codes and geometry.
Distinguished by its serial number beginning “12”, this example was destined for the coveted New York (ref. 15716) boutique as the rarest and most prestigious reference of the three boutique editions – with approximately 2,500 examples produced as opposed to approximately 10,000 examples each made for the Paris (ref. 1543) and London (ref. 471) boutiques. Displaying superior quality details like the 14K goldplated brass case, screw-down caseback, and recessed elongated crown, the New York edition truly stands apart amongst the trio.
This rare vintage reference encapsulates the creative spirit of the 70s Cartier boutiques before standardization. For scholars and collectors of Cartier’s most iconic silhouettes, the present timepiece represents a stylishly retro perspective on the legendary Tank design.

Delivered with Universal Geneve Extract from the Archives confirming the production of the present timepiece in 1950 and its case metal.
The initial split-seconds chronograph mechanisms were discovered in late 19th-century pocket watches, where they were utilized for measuring intermediate timing events like lap times in horse racing. However, as wristwatches gained popularity in the early 20th century, single-button (monopusher) chronographs became available. In 1923, Patek Philippe introduced the world's first split-seconds chronograph wristwatch, setting the design standard for subsequent models. Today, these timepieces are highly prized by collectors for their intricate movements and timeless aesthetics. Particularly, oversized military split-chronographs from the mid-20th century are in great demand. Renowned brands such as Rolex, Eberhard, Breitling, and Universal manufactured these exceptional timepieces, which exude a cool, masculine, and iconic appeal.
The present Universal split-seconds timepiece is an uncommon model created for the Italian Ministry of Defence and the Italian Air Force and it was distributed through the renowned retailer A. Cairelli of Rome and served as a navigation tool during a time when flight crews relied on dead reckoning and beacons for orientation. Universal opted for a 24-hour dial design with a 16-minute subsidiary register, which, thanks to the large 44.5mm case diameter, ensures legibility and ease of reading during nocturnal missions. The retailer's signature is prominently displayed at the 6 o'clock position, a feature found in many collectible military timepieces of the 20th century. Powered by the Valjoux 55 caliber, the same movement used in the famed Rolex reference 4113, this watch exemplifies precision timekeeping and functionality. The present example, with its beautifully aged dial, is further enhanced by a gold bezel and split chronograph reset button. It is possible that this particular timepiece was crafted for a high-ranking military officer, symbolizing prestige and honor, or perhaps a civilian as there are no military engravings on the caseback. The collaboration between the Italian Ministry of Defence and retailer A. Cairelli holds significant horological significance. For discerning collectors, this watch represents a rare opportunity to own an enduring piece of history.

During the 1960s to 1970s, the Italian Air Force known as the Aeronautica Militare Italiana (AMI) commissioned Zenith to produce a special wristwatch for its pilots to be used during missions. The Zenith “A. Cairelli” Tipo CP-2 (Cronometro da Polso Tipo 2), meaning wristwatch type 2, quickly became an important and highly soughtafter vintage chronograph. With its large 43mm case size and black dial, the watch exudes a rugged and robust aesthetic. It is believed that approximately 2,500 examples were manufactured, however, the contract was terminated prematurely, leading to the remaining watches being sold through A. Cairelli in Rome to civilians without military issue numbers engraved on their casebacks.
Consequently, the present watch represents a rare military-issued version, as evidenced by the engraving on its caseback, which reads “A.M.I. CRONOMETRO TIPO CP-2 M.M. 201390”. The dial is characterized by its large, bold, luminous Arabic numerals, with the A. Cairelli signature located at the 6 o’clock position. Considering that the present Zenith Tipo CP-2 is a military-issued timepiece, its exceptional state of preservation is truly impressive. The dial is clean, and the luminous indexes have aged gracefully and uniformly to a subtle ivory color, which complements the hands. This particular example is one of the finest to be offered at auction and even comes with the original A. Cairelli Roma presentation box, further enhancing its desirability.

Established by WWI US Navy veteran Samuel Klepper in 1937, The Jardur Import Company, New York was an importer and manufacturer of precision aviation instruments, producing tools like flight calculators, navigation plotters, protractors. They were also the exclusive importer from Switzerland the renowned Jardur Bezelmeter chronographs, and the Jardur aviation waterproof wristwatches.
The famous Bezelmeter Aviation Chronograph is essentially a cockpit instrument for the wrist, featuring a bezel with an independent chapter ring graduated in counterclockwise hours, and a red “degreemeter” scale on the dial. Rotating the bezel to align duration hour with the hour hand on the dial at takeoff will give the pilot a quick reference of the remaining flight time, and the “degreemeter” scale is used with the chronograph to calculate turns, making it an invaluable aviation tool for pilots. Most wristwatches at the time, even those that were made for aviation, did not feature a degreemeter, earning it a special place in aviation history.
Powered by the rare Valjoux 71, a forerunner to the legendary Valjoux 72, the Jardur Bezelmeter Aviation Chronograph boasts high timekeeping performance and technical finesse. The present example is preserved in great condition, with a delightful layer of patina developed on the dial and the luminous-filled cathedral-style hands aged to an attractive shade of golden brown.
Equally engineered to be functional with finesse, the second Jardur aviator’s wristwatch with 24-hour dial is encased in a much smaller 31.5mm case. The dial is marked by a red 24-hour scale, harmoniously complementing the luminous materials on the hands and Arabic numerals which has aged to a rich tone of toffee. Preserved in great condition, this set of two Jardur aviator’s wristwatches is a fascinating piece of aviation history, and they are perfect for any discerning collectors of pilot's watches.

The Rolex GMT-Master reference 1675 enjoyed a successful production run spanning over 20 years, from 1959 to 1980, serving as a robust replacement for its predecessor, the ref. 6542, which was introduced in 1954. Initially featuring glossy dials with gilt printing, Rolex made a switch to matte dials as early as the 1.6 million serial numbers. The exact reason behind this transition remains unknown, but matte dials offered advantages such as cost-effectiveness, durability, and reduced reflectivity.
The present lot, with a serial number of 2.8 million and estimated to be from around 1971, showcases a stunning matte black dial boasting highly sought-after attributes, including the ‘MK 1’ and ‘Long E’ configuration. Additionally, it’s worth noting that the luminous hour indexes on this timepiece, which exhibit a distinct ‘waffle-like texture’ commonly found in earlier serial ranges, have acquired an appealing creamy patina over time.
Overall, the reference 1675 with its matte ‘MK 1’ dial variant, represents a remarkable timepiece that combines historical significance, aesthetic appeal, and the charming allure of vintage Rolexes.

The reference 16800 is an important model following the success of the reference 1680 in the Submariner Date collection. Introduced in 1979, it stands out as the first Submariner to feature a sapphire crystal, marking a technical advancement for Rolex. The water resistance of the Submariner also saw a notable improvement, increasing from a depth rating of 200 meters to 300 meters.
Considered a transitional model, the reference 16800 finally introduced a ratcheted, unidirectional rotating bezel at its launch. Prior to this, Submariners had bezels that could be turned in either direction where the introduction of the unidirectional bezel added an extra safety feature for professional divers. The earlier versions of the 16800, including the present watch, were equipped with vintagelooking matte dials whilst later versions featured glossy dials with white gold markers.
The present watch has been well-preserved and possesses a pleasing vintage appeal as the luminous plots on the dial have aged evenly, developing an attractive warm buttery hue over time.

The Maxi Yacht Rolex Cup is a highly prestigious event in the international yachting calendar, known for its excellence and organized by the Yacht Club Costa Smeralda (YCCS) in partnership with Rolex since the mid-1980s. This long-standing partnership has contributed to the continuous evolution and maintenance of the event’s high standards. Typically, the regatta attracts around 50 yachts ranging in size from 18.29 meters (60 feet) to over 40 meters (131 feet). The yachts are divided into classes based on size and performance, and crewed by top sailors from around the world. When racing, these yachts embody a captivating blend of power, speed, and elegance.
During the 1988 Maxi Yacht Championship, the yacht Il Moro di Venezia III emerged as the winner. As a gesture of recognition, Italian businessman Raul Gardini, who was sailor Phil McColl’s former employer and owner of Il Moro di Venezia III, presented him with an engraved Rolex Submariner. It should be noted that the reference 168000 was produced for only nine months in 1988-89 and is considered a transitional reference as it introduced the use of a new 904L stainless steel alloy replacing the previously used 316L.
The caseback of this Rolex Submariner is engraved with Mr. McColl’s name, along with the inscription “Il Moro di Venezia III World Champion 1988 maxi boat”. The inner caseback also bears the engraved complete case number, a feature commonly seen in military or special occasion watches. This watch holds significant historical provenance, representing the remarkable event and the success of Il Moro di Venezia, which went on to win the 1991 IACC World Championship for Italy.
We are pleased to offer this important timepiece in the auction, recognizing its significance and unique history tied to the Maxi Yacht Rolex Cup and the victorious Il Moro di Venezia III.

As the first reference within the Explorer II lineage to offer a white dial variation, the ref. 16550 holds significant appeal among collectors seeking its updated aesthetic compared to its predecessor. Introduced in 1985, this reference has an upgraded sapphire crystal but was shortly discontinued after a few years. Notably, some of the earliest examples develop a charming “cream” hue on the white dial surface over time, further enhancing its desirability among collectors. Furthermore, early models of the ref. 16550 featured white gold-ringed luminous plots, while later examples adopted a blackened border similar to its successor, ref. 16570.
The present lot is likely one of the earliest examples, manufactured around 1985, and it was originally sold by a Japanese retailer on 6 October 1985. Its exceptional preservation is evident, particularly with its super rare and early “rail dial.” The dial showcases a uniform graduation of the cream hue, and the luminous material has aged beautifully to a desirable buttery tone and texture, bestowing the watch with a distinctive vintage charm. Notably, this timepiece comes with comprehensive documentation, including all service invoices and papers from Rolex Japan, its original guarantee, and the original presentation box.

While maintaining the same impressive depth rating of 4,000 feet, the new reference introduced an upgraded caliber 3135 movement. After a successful production run spanning nearly 20 years, this reference was the last to feature an aluminum bezel and was officially discontinued in 2008, paving the way for the new ref. 116600.
The present Rolex Sea-Dweller ref. 16600 from circa 2005 is in “newold-stock” condition, with all of its factory protective stickers still intact and showing no signs of use or wear.

In 1984, Audemars Piguet merged their two most valued assets, the Royal Oak and the perpetual calendar, with the release of the first Royal Oak Perpetual Calendar ref. 5554. Powered by the calibre 2120/2800, this marked a new era for the coveted model. In 1998, Audemars Piguet further advanced the Royal Oak Perpetual Calendar with the introduction of the ref. 25820 series, which first featured the firm’s calibre 2120/2802 and included an additional leap year indication.
Launched in 1996 and produced until 2013, the ref. 25820 was made in various metals and dial colors with a total production of 1235 pieces. The present example is one of 378 pieces crafted in stainless steel and platinum and it is highly desirable over the years. The two-tone case combined with a deep black grande tapisserie dial is considered among the most attractive dial variants. The shiny silver registers provide a beautiful contrast against the mirror-polished platinum bezel. With the same case diameter as the original Royal Oak, these early perpetual calendars are extremely rare and highly sought-after in today’s market.

The DB28 has been the firm’s staple flagship model since its initial launch, and the collection has broadened in recent years with the release of the present DB28GS Grand Bleu in 2019. It is De Bethune’s first-ever diver’s watch, and to the best of our knowledge, less than 50 pieces of the present reference DB28GSV2AN have been produced to date.
Equipped with De Bethune’s signature floating lugs, the timepiece allows for optimal wrist comfort as the watch has a light profile. It also boasts a high robustness with the black zirconium and titanium case. The case middle of the watch is black zirconium, while the bezel and case back are titanium. Adding to the properties of corrosion resistance, durability and strength, the black zirconium is heated to feature a black oxide layer which renders exceptional scratch-resistance.
Unlike traditional diver’s watch, the scale for elapsed time is not found on the rotating bezel of the present watch, but rather it is featured on the crystal inside the bezel which rotates with the bezel. This allows for the scale to light up when the button positioned at 6 o’clock is pressed, activating 4 LED lights fitted at the quarters of the dial. In addition, the dial also features a special luminous material on the minute ring and rotating bezel, named Blue Moon, which is a new kind of SuperLuminova based on De Bethune’s signature heat-blued titanium, that glows in an irresistible blue when in darkness.
The present example is offered in “brand-new” condition. For the devoted fans of independents, and unorthodox yet practical and highly wearable, this may just be the perfect conversational diver’s watch.

When Roger Dubuis introduced their radical Excalibur collection in 2005, it revolutionized the brand with a futuristic, skeletonized aesthetic that marked a striking departure from previous designs. Built on bold contemporary architecture, the Excalibur embodies the manufacture’s integrated watchmaking prowess and pursuit of innovation.
The Excalibur Monotourbillon exemplifies this spirit, showcasing the maison’s signature star-shaped bridge with a flying tourbillon at 7 o’clock. Skeletonization creates alluring negative space to spotlight the one-minute flying tourbillon, allowing it to hover unimpeded. Mirror-polished and made of lightweight cobalt and titanium, its technical artistry mesmerizes. Powered by the cal. RD512-SQ, the airy yet substantial composition achieves perfect balance. Meticulous hand-finishing meeting the Hallmark of Geneva, from the pink gold open worked hands and markers filled with black Super-LumiNova to the satin-brushed lugs, elevates the aesthetics to art.
Complete with its full set of accessories and further offered in “like-new” condition, the present example in pink gold numbered 22 of a limited edition of 88 pieces embodies Roger Dubuis’ unrestrained horological vision.

Unusual, rare and still under the radar for many, if you are seeking for such timepiece by an independent watchmaker, this could be the one –The Retro Twin ref. 157 by Paul Gerber. A member of the AHCI, Gerber is a talented independent watchmaker born in Bern, Switzerland. With his workshop setup in Zurich, the brand under his name was established since 1976. His work of arts includes the “Superbia Humanitatis” that was featured in the 2005 Guinness World Book of Records as the most complicated wristwatch ever created alongside with Franck Muller. Mind-blowingly based on a highly complicated self-striking repeater movement by Louis Eysse Piaget, Gerber further added a flying tourbillon, split seconds chronograph, jumping minute and many more on top.
Comparatively much simplistic than the mentioned, the Retro Twin is rather revolutionary. 35mm diameter in size and available across four metals – yellow gold (ref. 155), pink gold (ref. 156), white gold (ref. 157, present example) and platinum (ref.158). Boasting a modified base movement of the Peseux cal. 700, the model features a world’s first flyback retrograde seconds! Powered by a double oscillating system with its novel twin platinum rotors that can be admired through its sapphire caseback.
The stepped case and lugs beautifully frame the clean guilloché dial. The refined slim blued leaf hands complement the blued Breguet numerals that fans out with true elegance. Preserved is exceptional condition and barely worn, the present timepiece is not one that makes an appearance often at auctions.

The combined rotation of the tourbillon and the movement is not only a marvel to behold, but it also significantly improves the stability of the watch’s performance.
Encased in an attractive pink gold case, the patented manual calibre IO200 presents a power-reserve gauge, visible through an aperture in the caseband, and the moon phases and winding stem are positioned on the back of the watch.

With independent watchmaking playing a crucial role in today’s haute horology, Moritz Grossmann has emerged as one of the most renowned German watchmaking companies. Inspired by the 19thcentury watchmaker Moritz Grossmann, the brand launched its first timepiece “Benu” named after the phoenix, a mythical creature from Egyptian mythology believed to embody the soul of Ra, the Supreme Sun God. This release set the tone for the brand, and subsequent collections were named after various gods from mythology, such as Tefnut and Atum.
Paying homage to 19th-century pocket watches, the movement of the Benu Index is meticulously finished, featuring brown-violet screws that harmonize with the overall aesthetic. Additionally, the hand-engraved balance cock adds a touch of artistry and can be admired through the sapphire caseback. Notably, in true German fashion, the calibre 100.1 is equipped with a hack seconds function, and the pusher positioned at 4 o’clock allows the seconds hand to resume motion after the crown is pulled, ensuring precise timekeeping.
With an annual production of approximately 200 watches, the Benu Index represents the pinnacle of watchmaking artistry and is a timeless masterpiece of sleek elegance. The dial itself is a testament to pure aesthetics, blending elements of classical beauty with a touch of modernity. Delicately chamfered hour markers replace traditional Arabic numerals, further enhancing the overall refined appeal of the timepiece.
Please note that the proceeds of the sale of the present watch will be given by the Consignor to various charities.

The present watch also exudes timeless elegance with the time display, with two white lacquered sub-dials. One at the 2 o’clock for hours and minutes, and a smaller one at 6 o’clock for power reserve. In equal measure, the transparent case back on the watch reveals the exquisite hand-finishings, and makes a spectacle of the beautiful movement with chamfered bridges decorated with Côtes, gold chatons and countersunk blued screws, testifying to the respect accorded to the heritage of traditional watchmaking.
The present iteration of LM101 from circa 2021 is offered in excellent overall condition and complete with its full set of accessories. Made for collectors of innovative and independent timepieces, it is a phenomenal timepiece perfect for any collection of fine and eclectic independent watchmaking.

The Girard-Perregaux Opera collection consists of a series of three highly complicated timepieces produced between the late 1990s and early 2000s. Fusing impressive grand complications with supreme craftsmanship, they are some of the most coveted timepieces created by the brand. The Opera Two was introduced in 2001, to succeed the Opera One which features the brand’s signature tourbillon with three gold bridges and a minute repeater with Westminster carillon chime on four gongs. The Opera Two additionally offers a perpetual calendar complication, and the Opera Three further includes a musical box mechanism that can be set to strike two melodies.
The present Opera Two in platinum is arguably the most impressive and fascinating of the three. Made in an exceedingly small number, the Opera Two was meticulously assembled and decorated by hand, and each timepiece requires around 500 hours to complete. Most repeaters struck the time with two hammers on two gongs, and the Westminster chime is the most extraordinary because it requires multiple gongs and hammers to replicate the peal of bells that ring out
from the Houses of Parliament in London. The movement of the Opera Two is one of a very few to feature a four gong Westminster carillon, and each of the four hammers is marked according to piano keys, Sol-Do-Ré and M (G-C-D-E). Through the open aperture on the left of the dial, one can see three of the four gongs strike when the minute repeating complication is activated, and it is an utter delight to hear the “Big Ben” melody with the passing hours.
In contrast to the complexity of the movement, the arrangement of the dial is simple and elegant, with dauphine hands and applied indexes set on an attractive white dial. The perpetual calendar is indicated on three subsidiary dials, displaying calendar and leap year indication, on top of the openwork aperture at 6 o’clock displaying the mesmerizing tourbillon in its full glory.
Preserved in “like-new” condition, the present Opera Two is a spectacular piece of haute horologie that should not be missed by the discerning connoisseur.

Introduced in 1998, the Patek Philippe ref. 5059 along with its sister ref. 5050 stood out as the only wristwatches with center seconds and a perpetual calendar at that time since the vintage ref. 2497 and 2438. Its distinct charm lies in the officer-style case, measuring 36mm in diameter, featuring a hinged caseback. Within this elegant case resides a perfectly symmetrical white dial adorned with painted black Roman numerals and the retrograde date indication.
Both the ref. 5050 and 5059 share the sophisticated, self-winding caliber 315 S-QR, which boasts a striking 21K gold rotor. As a robust and state-of-the-art in-house movement, it showcases the intriguing retrograding date, a feature notoriously challenging to implement reliably in watchmaking. While this function was previously seen on exceedingly rare Patek Philippe watches of the past, it had never been featured on a regular production model until the ref. 5050 and 5059.
The present ref. 5059 crafted in pink gold is a rare gem as most examples of this reference were encased in white gold instead. Discontinued in 2006, it made way for the new ref. 5159 which boasts a larger case size. Accompanied by its original Certificate of Origin and presentation box, this presents a wonderful opportunity to acquire an understated and refined perpetual calendar wristwatch crafted by Patek Philippe.

With the quartz crisis in the late 1970s, the Swiss watch industry faced an unprecedented challenge. Japanese watchmakers flooded the global market with quartz movements, leading to a decline in the demand for traditional mechanical timepieces. In response, Rolex decided to develop a new line of watches equipped with quartz movements, and thus, the Oysterquartz Datejust was born.
The reference 17000 made its debut in 1977 and was introduced at a time when Rolex aimed to meet the demand for quartz movements from its clientele. This model can be considered the predecessor to all subsequent quartz watches created by Rolex, including the famous Oysterquartz Day-Date.
The present Oysterquartz Datejust ref. 17000A circa 2001 represents one of the last batches produced during the Oysterquartz Datejust era, as it was discontinued in the same year. This particular watch is exceptionally well-preserved and comes with its original papers and presentation box. It even includes the hang tag, which displays the case number and the original retail price of 3,229 Euros.

The Rolex GMT-Master reference 16750 series represented an upgrade from its predecessor, incorporating a new movement calibre 3075 that boasted a convenient quick-set date function. Within this series, the 16758 model stands out as a distinctive variant, featuring an 18K yellow gold case and bracelet, providing a luxurious alternative to the standard stainless steel version. Notably, it was also the first GMT-Master model to be equipped with a sapphire crystal, enhancing its appeal further.
The present timepiece is an extraordinary and exceptionally rare find, adorned with the highly sought-after “Tiffany & Co” signature on the dial. Its striking brown dial and distinctive “nipple” luminous hour markers have become exceptionally iconic in today’s horological landscape. Additionally, the case is well-preserved, displaying sharp hallmarks which essentially attests to its collectability. Furthermore, the watch underwent servicing at Rolex in 2017, and the accompanying service invoice provides additional reassurance. All in all, this particular example would undoubtedly be a valuable addition to any Rolex GMTMaster collection.

Accompanied by Tiffany & Co. Japan service paper. Further delivered with the Patek Philippe Extract from the Archives confirming the date of manufacture of the present timepiece in 1955 and its subsequent date of sale on 30th November 1955.
Bestowed with a charming moniker, the Patek Philippe ref. 2552 “Disco Volante” features a modern and refined stepped case. Translated as “Flying Saucer” in Italian, the ref. 2552 was produced from 1954 until 1960. First and foremost, the model is powered by the brand’s first legendary self-winding calibre 12-600, sharing the same beating heart as its siblings 2526 and 2551, the model is the third from the lineage to be fitted with this very calibre.
With a stronger wrist presence compared to the ref. 2526 thanks to its incredible wide stepped bezel design crafted by A. Wenger (Key number 1), they both share the same desirable double P crown design. Looking at the present timepiece, you will first notice its vanilla hued dial is blessed with a rather unique signature, the prestigious Tiffany & Co. An exceptionally well-preserved example, to our knowledge, only 60 yellow gold examples have publicly appeared in the market, and only a mere of 6 examples carries the Tiffany & Co. signature.
Fresh-to-the-market, beautiful raised enamel can be admired throughout the dial, the case stamped with strong hallmark on the lug has gained a charming warm patina that connoisseurs will appreciate. Diving deeper, one can discover the inventory code “5835” vividly hand engraved on the back of the top lug, as well as ‘245’ the numbers matches perfectly to the case number of the present timepiece. It houses Patek Philippe’s superb automatic caliber 12-600 which is beautifully hand decorated and stamped with the Geneva seal, featuring a gold guilloché rotor and Patek Philippe’s signature Gyromax balance. Furthermore, the movement is accordingly stamped ‘HOX,’ the correct import mark for the American market.
The icing on the cake is the matching gold Tiffany & Co. bracelet that elevated the aesthetic of the ref. 2552. Confirmed by the Patek Philippe, this is an example from 1955. It is also accompanied by service papers with detailed numbers from Tiffany & Co. Japan that documents the incredibly collectability of this gem.

The coveted Patek Philippe reference 5711 was introduced in 2006 during Nautilus’s 30th anniversary, to pay tribute to the original 3700 “Jumbo”. It became history when it was discontinued in 2021 after a 15-year production span. The reference 5711/1R-001 was launched in 2015 at Baselworld as the first pink gold Nautilus reference with an irresistible “chocolate” brown dial, and it has been met with great enthusiasm from collectors ever since. The present example further bears the prestigious and elusive ‘Tiffany & Co.’ signature on the dial. Patek Philippe and Tiffany’s partnership began in 1851, and the over 170-year relationship has created some of the world’s most expensive and complex timepieces. To this day, the enduring alliance is still going strong, and Tiffany & Co. remains the only retailer that is still allowed to stamp their logo on the dial of Patek Philippe watches since the 1990s.
To the best of our knowledge, the present Nautilus reference 5711/1R001 appears to be fresh to the auction market – this is the second one known to be stamped with the ‘Tiffany & Co.’ signature on the dial, attesting to its rarity and exclusivity. Striking a perfect balance between technicality and elegance, the present example is further powered by the automatic calibre 26-330 SC, a descendant of the calibre 324 SC found on earlier Nautilus reference 5711s prior to 2019, which was upgraded with a new 21K gold central rotor and hacking seconds. The movement boasts a frequency of 28,800 vph, and a power reserve of 35 to 45 hours.
Offered in superb condition, and accompanied by its full set of original accessories, including its blue Tiffany & Co. outer packaging, the present ‘Tiffany’ Nautilus is the ultimate grail for collectors around the world.

In 2007, Patek Philippe introduced the upgraded reference 5167A to commemorate the 10th anniversary of the Aquanaut. The design was reinterpreted with several modifications to meet the taste of contemporary collectors, most noticeably the case size has been enlarged to 40mm in diameter, and the dial was adjusted to a simpler design with a shallower dial embellished by slightly more curved lines to match the roundness of the beautifully finished octagonal rounded bezel. The date aperture is positioned at the 3 o’clock in place of the hour marker, making it closer to the centre of the dial. Matching perfectly with the dial, the reference 5167A also featured a new Tropical rubber strap with enhanced texture and durability, fitted with a more sophisticated double deployant clasp.
The present reference 5167A is powered by the automatic calibre 324 SC, introduced in the early 2000s. It is fitted with a larger 21K gold centre rotor for generating greater power, and it beats at a frequency of 28,800 vph, with 45 hours of power reserve. Stamped with the Patek Philippe Seal,the movement is completed with the highest level of quality, and the delightful Patek Philippe style finishing is fully on view through the sapphire caseback.
The present example retailed by Tiffany & Co further heightens its rarity and appeal with the retailer’s signature positioned at six o’clock. Presented in exceptional overall condition and complete with full set of original accessories, the present example is a splendid opportunity to obtain a highly sought-after Tiffany-signed timepiece.

With its new “Time for Speed” collection, Tiffany & Co. has launched a limited edition mechanical clock that masterfully merges horology, automotive design, and jewelry craftsmanship into one exquisite objet d’art. Inspired by Tiffany & Co.’s rich heritage of producing racing trophies by hand, each aluminum clock replicates a 1950s race car in the house’s iconic Tiffany Blue. Durable rubber tires with stainless steel spokes exude retro styling, while the brushed steel aperture evokes a racing number, indicating the hours and minutes with crisp precision.
This limited edition clock made exclusively for the Japanese market dazzles with 192 brilliant-cut diamonds, including eye-catching 1-carat stones at each wheel’s center. Pavé diamonds embellish the bezel in glittering contrast to the smooth Tiffany Blue metal body. Details such as the “T&CO” grille and its flagship Fifth Avenue store inspired “5” bumper provide tasteful hints of Tiffany &Co. ‘s storied history. The clockwork revs to life under a helmet-domed glass, offering a glimpse of the L’Epée in-house cal. 1855 MHD mechanics in motion.
With just a turn of the steering wheel to set time and a pull-back winding mechanism, the “Time for Speed” race car clock playfully blends heritage and innovation. The present example is one of a limited edition of 50 pieces that would certainly be a fantastic decorative piece that will brighten up the room tastefully.

The reference 6263 inherited features from its predecessor, the reference 6240, which was the first Daytona to feature screw-down pushers, making the case fully waterproof and earning it the “Oyster” designation. Introduced in 1969 alongside the reference 6265, both models featured the upgraded caliber 727, but the reference 6263 stands out with its striking black acrylic bezel.
In its early examples, the “Paul Newman” dials featured a three-color scheme in red, white, and black, with a red Daytona signature above the 12-hour register at 6 o’clock. The dial variations included a white background with black subsidiary dials, and the reverse with a black background and white subsidiary dials. As the Rolex Daytona chronograph evolved, so did the “exotic” dial, with transitional references 6262 and 6264 featuring a two-color black and white dial, without the red outer scale. However, the reference 6263 marked a slight but noticeable shift, giving birth to the highly sought-after “Paul Newman” Panda dial. This dial style, resembling the face of a panda, is considered by many to be the most beautiful and classic of all “exotic” dials. The red Daytona signature at 6 o’clock was removed, and the stark monochromatic white and black dial perfectly complemented the black acrylic bezel.
The present reference 6263 features a stunning MK 2 “Panda” dial, characterized by the serif fonts of the entire “Rolex Oyster Cosmograph” text. This dial iteration represents the final development and is part of the last batches of “Paul Newman” dials seen in the market.
Just one case number away from this beauty, we had the privilege of offering another example with case number 3’048’323 in the Game Changers New York auction back in 2019, that watch also features the same pristine MK 2 dial as the present example.
In outstanding overall condition, this watch’s dial is exceptional, with no major marks, blemishes, or scratches present. The white grené surface of the dial is clean and bright, and the original luminous hour markers have aged to a beautiful ivory color while being remarkably well-preserved. The case retains the original “millerighe” pushers and is similarly well-preserved, exhibiting crisp proportions and only minor signs of wear.
What sets this “Paul Newman Panda” apart is its inclusion of the original guarantee dated 27th July 1972 and its presentation box. As many examples of this watch are found without their accessories, this particular watch becomes a trophy timepiece among all Paul Newman Daytonas, making it particularly important and desirable for collectors.

The buyer’s premium is payable by the buyer as part of the total purchase price at the following rates: 27% of the hammer price up to and including HK$7,500,000, 21% of the portion of the hammer price above HK$7,500,000 up to and including HK$50,000,000 and 14.5% of the portion of the hammer price above HK$50,000,000.
The purchase price payable for any lot is the sum of the hammer price plus the buyer’s premium plus and applicable tax and charges.

Pre-Sale Estimates
Pre-sale estimates are intended as a guide for prospective buyers. Any bid within the high and low estimate range should, in our opinion, offer a chance of success. However, many lots achieve prices below or above the pre-sale estimates. Where ‘Estimate on Request’ appears, please contact the specialist department for further information. It is advisable to contact us closer to the time of the auction as estimates can be subject to revision. Pre-sale estimates do not include the buyer’s premium or any applicable taxes.
Pre-Sale Estimates in US Dollars and Euros
Although the sale is conducted in Hong Kong dollars, the pre-sale estimates in the auction catalogues may also be printed in US dollars and/or euros. Since the exchange rate is that at the time of catalogue production and not at the date of auction, you should treat estimates in US dollars or euros as a guide only.
Catalogue Entries
Phillips may print in the catalogue entry the history of ownership of the property, as well as the exhibition history and references to the work in art publications. While we are careful in the cataloguing process, provenance, exhibition and literature references may not be exhaustive and in some cases we may intentionally refrain from disclosing the identity of previous owners. Please note that all dimensions of the property set forth in the catalogue entry are approximate.
Condition of Lots
Our catalogues include references to condition only in the descriptions of multiple works (e.g. prints). Such references, though, do not amount to a full description of condition. The absence of reference to the condition of a lot in the catalogue entry does not imply that the lot is free from faults or imperfections. Solely as a convenience to clients, Phillips may provide condition reports. In preparing such reports, our specialists assess the condition in a manner appropriate to the estimated value of the property. While condition reports are prepared honestly and carefully, our staff are not professional restorers. We therefore encourage all prospective buyers to inspect the property at the pre-sale exhibitions and recommend, particularly in the case of any lot of significant value, that you retain your own restorer or professional advisor to report to you on the property’s condition prior to bidding. Moreover, condition reports are not exhaustive and may not specify all mechanical replacements or imperfections to the movement, case, dial, pendulum, separate bases(s) or dome. The absence of a condition report or the absence of a reference to damage in the catalogue does not imply that the lot is in good condition, working order or free from restoration or repair.
Pre-Auction Viewing
Pre-auction viewings are open to the public and free of charge. Our specialists are available to give advice and condition reports at viewings or by appointment.
Deposit and other conditions to bidding
As a condition of allowing you to bid on a lot, including lots designated with the symbol ✱ (“Premium Lots”), Phillips may require you to provide security for the bid in the form of (i) a financial deposit of an amount which Phillips will determine in its sole and absolute discretion; and/or (ii)such financial references, guarantees and/or other security as Phillips may require in its sole discretion.
To bid on Premium Lots, you will be required to complete and satisfy Phillips’ Premium Lot pre-registration procedure no later than 24 hours before the start of the auction session in which the Premium Lot will be offered for sale. Upon your completion and satisfaction of Phillips’ Premium Lot pre-registration procedure, we will issue you with a numbered Premium Lot paddle for identification purposes. The auctioneer will only accept bids on Premium Lots made with the Premium Lot paddle.
Payment of deposits may be made by wire transfer or credit card acceptable to Phillips for the prospective purchase. If you are not the successful bidder on any Lots and do not owe Phillips or any of our affiliated companies any debt, the deposit will be refunded to you by wire transfer (in the same currency in which you paid the deposit) or credit card refund, as the case may be, the refund will be processed within seven days after the date of the auction.
Symbol Key
The following key explains the symbols you may see inside this catalogue.
0 Guaranteed Property
Lots designated with the symbol O are the subject of a minimum price guarantee. In such cases Phillips has guaranteed to the seller of the lot that regardless of the outcome of the sale the seller shall receive no less than a minimum sum. This guarantee may be provided solely by Phillips or jointly with a third party.
♦ Third Party Guarantee
Where Phillips has agreed to a minimum price guarantee it assumes the financial risk of a lot failing to sell or selling for less than the minimum price guarantee. Because the sums involved can be significant Phillips may choose to share the burden of that financial risk with a third party. The third party shares the risk by committing in advance of the sale, usually by way of a written bid, to buy the lot for an agreed amount whether or not there are competing bidders for the lot. In this way the third party guarantor assumes the risk of the bidding not reaching the amount of the minimum price guarantee. If there are competing bidders third party guarantors may also bid above any written bid.
In return for underwriting or sharing this risk Phillips will usually compensate the third party. The compensation may be in the form of a fixed fee or an amount calculated by reference to the hammer price of the lot. If the third party guarantor is the successful bidder they will be required to pay the full hammer price and buyer’s premium and will not be otherwise compensated.
Disclosure of financial interest by third parties
Phillips requires third party guarantors to disclose their financial interest in the lot to anyone whom they are advising. If you are contemplating bidding on a lot which is the subject of a third party guarantee and you are being advised by someone or if you have asked someone to bid on your behalf you should always ask them to confirm whether or not they have a financial interest in the lot.
Δ Property in which Phillips has an Ownership Interest
Lots with this symbol indicate that Phillips owns the lot in whole or in part or has an economic interest in the lot equivalent to an ownership interest.
• No Reserve
Unless indicated by a •, all lots in this catalogue are offered subject to a reserve. A reserve is the confidential value established between Phillips and the seller and below which a lot may not be sold. The reserve for each lot is generally set at a percentage of the low estimate and will not exceed the low pre-sale estimate.
Ж Property subject to US Import Tariffs
Lots with this symbol indicate that the Property may be subject to additional tariffs upon importation into the United States of America. See paragraph 12 of the Conditions of Sale.
Σ Endangered Species
Lots with this symbol have been identified at the time of cataloguing as containing endangered or other protected species of wildlife which may be subject to restrictions regarding export or import and which may require permits for export as well as import. Please refer to Paragraph 4 of the Guide for Prospective Buyers and Paragraph 11 of the Conditions of Sale.

3 The Auction
As noted above, the auction is governed by the Conditions of Sale and Authorship Warranty. By registering for the Auction, bidders accept the Conditions of Sale and Authorship Warranty. They may be amended by saleroom addendum or Auctioneer’s announcement.
Interested Parties Announcement
In situations where a person allowed to bid on a lot has a direct or indirect interest in such lot, such as the beneficiary or executor of an estate selling the lot, a joint owner of the lot or a party providing or participating in a guarantee on the lot, Phillips will make an announcement in the saleroom that interested parties may bid on the lot.
Consecutive and Responsive Bidding; No Reserve Lots
The auctioneer may open the bidding on any lot by placing a bid on behalf of the seller. The auctioneer may further bid on behalf of the seller up to the amount of the reserve by placing consecutive bids or bids in response to other bidders. If a lot is offered without reserve, unless there are already competing absentee bids, the auctioneer will generally open the bidding at 50% of the lot’s low pre-sale estimate. In the absence of a bid at that level, the auctioneer will proceed backwards at his or her discretion until a bid is recognized and will then advance the bidding from that amount. Absentee bids on no reserve lots will, in the absence of a higher bid, be executed at approximately 50% of the low pre-sale estimate or at the amount of the bid if it is less than 50% of the low pre-sale estimate. If there is no bid whatsoever on a no reserve lot, the auctioneer may deem such lot unsold.

Collection
It is our policy to request proof of identity on collection of a lot. A lot will be released to the buyer or the buyer’s authorized representative when Phillips has received full and cleared payment and we are not owed any other amount by the buyer.
After the auction, all lots will be stored externally, please call our shipping department on +852 2318 2000 prior to arranging collection. We will levy removal, interest, storage and handling charges on uncollected lots.
Loss or Damage
Buyers are reminded that Phillips accepts liability for loss or damage to lots for a maximum of seven days following the auction.
Transport and Shipping
As a free service for buyers, Phillips will wrap purchased lots for hand carry only. We do not provide packing, handling or shipping services directly. However, we will coordinate with shipping agents instructed by you in order to facilitate the packing, handling and shipping of property purchased at Phillips. Please refer to Paragraph 7 of the Conditions of Sale for more information.
Export and Import Licences
Before bidding for any property, prospective bidders are advised to make independent enquiries as to whether a licence is required to export the property from Hong Kong or to import it into another country. It is the buyer’s sole responsibility to comply with all import and export laws and to obtain any necessary licences or permits. The denial of any required licence or permit or any delay in obtaining such documentation will not justify the cancellation of the sale or any delay in making full payment for the lot.
Buyers should note that the export of items offered for sale in the Auction to certain countries (including Russia and Belarus) may be prohibited pursuant to Government sanctions and other regulatory measures in force from time to time.
Endangered Species
Items made of or incorporating plant or animal material, such as coral, crocodile, ivory, whalebone, Brazilian rosewood, rhinoceros horn or tortoiseshell, irrespective of age, percentage or value, may require a licence or certificate prior to exportation and additional licences or certificates upon importation to the US or to any country within or outside the European Union (EU). Please note that the ability to obtain an export licence or certificate does not ensure the ability to obtain an import licence or certificate in another country, and vice versa. We suggest that prospective bidders check with their own government regarding wildlife import requirements prior to placing a bid. It is the buyer’s sole responsibility to obtain any necessary export or import licences or certificates as well as any other required documentation. Please note that the US prohibits the importation of any item containing African elephant ivory. Asian elephant ivory may be imported in to the US only if accompanied by independent scientific analysis regarding continent of origin and confirmation the object is more than 100 years old. We have not obtained a scientific analysis on any lot prior to sale and cannot indicate whether elephant ivory in a particular lot is African or Asian elephant. Buyers purchase these lots at their own risk and will be responsible for the costs of obtaining any scientific analysis or other report required in connection with their proposed import of such property into the US.
With regard to any item containing endangered species other than elephant ivory, an importer into the US must provide documented evidence of the species identification and age of an object in order to demonstrate that the object qualifies as an antique. This will require the buyer to obtain an independent appraisal certifying the species of endangered material on the object and certifying that the object is not less than 100 years of age. A prospective buyer planning to import an object into the US may not rely on Phillips cataloguing to establish the species of endangered material on the object or to establish the age of the object and must consult with a qualified independent appraiser prior to placing a bid on the lot.
Please note that lots containing potentially regulated plant or animal material are marked as a convenience to our clients, but Phillips does not accept liability for errors or for failing to mark lots containing protected or regulated species.

Important Notices
Condition
Phillips makes no representation or warranty that any watch or clock is in working order, and no catalogue description of any lot should be construed as so stating. Prospective buyers are advised to have watches and clocks checked by a competent watchmaker or watch or clock restorer before use. As a service to prospective buyers, we may provide a description of the condition of watches and clocks in the catalogue entry, including references to defects and repairs, and furnish a condition report, but such information is not necessarily complete and may not specify all mechanical replacements, restorations or defects. Please note that Phillips does not guarantee the authenticity of any individual components parts, such as wheels, hands, crowns, crystals, screws, bracelets and leather bands, since prior repairs and restoration work may have resulted in the replacement of original parts. Nor does Phillips warrant that watches in water-resistant cases are currently water-resistant. Prospective buyers should inspect all watches and clocks prior to the auction to evaluate the condition of property offered for sale.
Exportation of Watch Bands Incorporating Material from Endangered Species
Some of the watches offered for sale in the catalogue may have bands made of endangered or protected animal materials, such as alligator or crocodile, and may not lawfully be exported from the auction site without a CITES export permit.
As explained in Paragraph 1 & 4 of the Guide for Prospective Buyers, these lots are marked with Σ in the catalogue. Accordingly, for purchased watches that are to be shipped out of the sale site for delivery, Phillips may need to remove and retain the band before shipping the watch and buckle.
Importation of Watches Into the United States
Prospective buyers should be aware that the importation of luxury watches into the United States may be restricted. These watches may not be shipped into the US and may only be imported personally. US customs regulations may limit the importation of luxury watches to one per buyer. Lots marked with ▼ are subject to these restrictions. A purchaser’s inability to import a luxury watch into the United States or Phillips’s failure to mark a lot with ▼ shall not constitute grounds for non- payment or cancellation of the sale.
Authenticity Certificates
Certain manufacturers do not issue certificates of authenticity, and Phillips has no obligation to furnish a buyer with a certificate of authenticity from the manufacturer, except when specifically noted in the catalogue. Unless Phillips is satisfied that we should cancel the sale in accordance with the Authorship Warranty provided in the Conditions of Sale, the failure of a manufacturer to issue a certificate will not constitute grounds for cancellation of the sale.
Premium Lots
To bid on Premium Lots marked in the catalogue with the symbol *, prospective buyers must complete and satisfy Phillips’ Premium Lot pre-registration procedure no later than 24 hours before the start of the auction session in which the Lot is offered for sale. Premium Lot paddles will be issued to bidders who complete and satisfy the Premium Lot pre-registration procedure. The Auctioneer will only accept bids from Premium Lot paddles in respect of Premium Lots. For details, please contact the department organising the auction or the Client Services Department at +852 2318 2000.

All prospective buyers should read these Conditions of Sale, the Important Notices immediately following the Guide for Prospective Buyers and the Authorship Warranty carefully before bidding.
1 Introduction
Each lot in this catalogue is offered for sale and sold subject to: (a) the Conditions of Sale and Authorship Warranty; (b) additional notices and terms printed in other places in this catalogue, including the Guide for Prospective Buyers and Important Notices and (c) supplements to this catalogue or other written material posted by Phillips in the saleroom, in each case as amended by any addendum or announcement by the auctioneer prior to the auction.
By bidding at the auction, whether in person, through an agent, by written bid, by telephone bid or other means, bidders and buyers agree to be bound by these Conditions of Sale, as so changed or supplemented, and Authorship Warranty.
These Conditions of Sale, as so changed or supplemented, and Authorship Warranty contain all the terms on which Phillips and the seller contract with the buyer.
2 Phillips as Agent
Phillips acts as an agent for the seller, unless otherwise indicated in this catalogue or at the time of auction. On occasion, Phillips may own a lot directly, in which case we will act in a principal capacity as a consignor, or a company affiliated with Phillips may own a lot, in which case we will act as agent for that company, or Phillips or an affiliated company may have a legal, beneficial or financial interest in a lot as a secured creditor or otherwise.
3 Catalogue Descriptions and Condition of Property
Lots are sold subject to the Authorship Warranty, as described in the catalogue (unless such description is changed or supplemented, as provided in Paragraph 1 above) and in the condition that they are in at the time of the sale on the following basis.
(a) The knowledge of Phillips in relation to each lot is partially dependent on information provided to us by the seller, and Phillips is not able to and does not carry out exhaustive due diligence on each lot. Prospective buyers acknowledge this fact and accept responsibility for carrying out inspections and investigations to satisfy themselves as to the lots in which they may be interested. Notwithstanding the foregoing, we shall exercise such reasonable care when making express statements in catalogue descriptions or condition reports as is consistent with our role as auctioneer of lots in this sale and in light of (i) the information provided to us by the seller, (ii) scholarship and technical knowledge and (iii) the generally accepted opinions of relevant experts, in each case at the time any such express statement is made.
(b) Each lot offered for sale at Phillips is available for inspection by prospective buyers prior to the auction. Phillips accepts bids on lots on the basis that bidders (and independent experts on their behalf, to the extent appropriate given the nature and value of the lot and the bidder’s own expertise) have fully inspected the lot prior to bidding and have satisfied themselves as to both the condition of the lot and the accuracy of its description.
(c) Prospective buyers acknowledge that many lots are of an age and type which means that they are not in perfect condition. As a courtesy to clients, Phillips may prepare and provide condition reports to assist prospective buyers when they are inspecting lots. Catalogue descriptions and condition reports may make reference to particular imperfections of a lot, but bidders should note that lots may have other faults not expressly referred to in the catalogue or condition report. All dimensions are approximate. Illustrations are for identification purposes only and cannot be used as precise indications of size or to convey full information as to the actual condition of lots.
(d) Information provided to prospective buyers in respect of any lot, including any pre-sale estimate, whether written or oral, and information in any catalogue, condition or other report, commentary or valuation, is not a representation of fact but rather a statement of opinion held by Phillips. Any pre-sale estimate may not be relied on as a prediction of the selling price or value of the lot and may be revised from time to time by Phillips at our absolute discretion. Neither Phillips nor any of our affiliated companies shall be liable for any difference between the pre-sale estimates for any lot and the actual price achieved at auction or upon resale.
4 Bidding at Auction
(a) Phillips has absolute discretion to refuse admission to the auction or participation in the sale. All bidders must register for a paddle prior to bidding, supplying such information and references as required by Phillips.
(b) As a convenience to bidders who cannot attend the auction in person, Phillips may, if so instructed by the bidder, execute written absentee bids on a bidder’s behalf. Absentee bidders are required to submit bids on the ‘Absentee Bid Form’, a copy of which is printed in this catalogue or otherwise available from Phillips. Bids must be placed in the currency of the sale. The bidder must clearly indicate the maximum amount he or she intends to bid, excluding the buyer’s premium. The auctioneer will not accept an instruction to execute an absentee bid which does not indicate such maximum bid. Our staff will attempt to execute an absentee bid at the lowest possible price taking into account the reserve and other bidders. Any absentee bid must be received at least 24 hours in advance of the sale. In the event of identical bids, the earliest bid received will take precedence.
(c) Telephone bidders are required to submit bids on the ‘Telephone Bid Form’, a copy of which is printed in this catalogue or otherwise available from Phillips. Telephone bidding is available for lots whose low pre-sale estimate is at least HK$8,000. Phillips reserves the right to require written confirmation of a successful bid from a telephone bidder by fax or otherwise immediately after such bid is accepted by the auctioneer. Telephone bids may be recorded and, by bidding on the telephone, a bidder consents to the recording of the conversation.
(d) Bidders may participate in an auction by bidding online through Phillips’s online live bidding platform available on our website at www.phillips.com. To bid online, bidders must register online at least 24 hours before the start of the auction. Online bidding is subject to approval by Phillips’s bid department in our sole discretion. As noted in Paragraph 3 above, Phillips encourages online bidders to inspect prior to the auction any lot(s) on which they may bid, and condition reports are available upon request. Bidding in a live auction can progress quickly. To ensure that online bidders are not placed at a disadvantage when bidding against bidders in the room or on the telephone, the procedure for placing bids through Phillips’s online bidding platform is a one-step process. By clicking the bid button on the computer screen, a bidder submits a bid. Online bidders acknowledge and agree that bids so submitted are final and may not under any circumstances be amended or retracted. During a live auction, when bids other than online bids are placed, they will be displayed on the online bidder’s computer screen as ‘floor’ bids. ‘Floor’ bids include bids made by the auctioneer to protect the reserve. In the event that an online bid and a ‘floor’ or ‘phone’ bid are identical, the ‘floor’ bid may take precedence at the auctioneer’s discretion. The next bidding increment is shown for the convenience of online bidders in the bid button. The bidding increment available to online bidders may vary from the next bid actually taken by the auctioneer, as the auctioneer may deviate from Phillips’s standard increments at any time at his or her discretion, but an online bidder may only place a bid in a whole bidding increment. Phillips’s bidding increments are published in the Guide for Prospective Buyers.
(e) When making a bid, whether in person, by absentee bid, on the telephone or online, a bidder accepts personal liability to pay the purchase price, as described more fully in Paragraph 6 (a) below, plus all other applicable charges.
(f) By registering and participating in the auction, whether in person, by absentee bid, on the telephone or online, bidders represent, warrant and confirm that (i) unless otherwise expressly agreed in writing with Phillips prior to the auction, they are bidding on their own behalf and not on behalf of anyone else; (ii) they will be paying the purchase price from their own funds; (iii) that their participation in the auction and payment of the purchase price is lawful and shall not breach any applicable sanctions laws; (iv) they are not resident or located in a sanctioned jurisdiction including but not limited to Russia, Belarus, Iran and North Korea; and (v) any bids placed by them, or on their behalf, are not the product of any collusive or other anti-competitive agreement and are not otherwise in breach of any applicable law, Government sanctions and other regulatory measures in force from time to time.
(g) Arranging absentee, telephone and online bids is a free service provided by Phillips to prospective buyers. While we undertake to exercise reasonable care in undertaking such activity, we cannot accept liability for failure to execute such bids except where such failure is caused by our willful misconduct.
(h)
Premium Lots
Lots with the symbol [*] are Premium Lots. To bid on Premium Lots prospective buyers must complete and satisfy Phillips’ Premium Lot pre-registration procedure no later than 24 hours before the start of the auction session in which the Lot is offered. Premium Lot paddles will be issued to bidders who complete and satisfy the Premium Lot pre-registration procedure. The Auctioneer will only accept bids from Premium Lot paddles in respect of Premium Lots. Please contact the department organizing the auction for further details.
(i) Employees of Phillips and our affiliated companies, including the auctioneer, may bid at the auction by placing absentee bids so long as they do not know the reserve when submitting their absentee bids and otherwise comply with our employee bidding procedures.
5 Conduct of the Auction
(a) Unless otherwise indicated by the symbol •, each lot is offered subject to a reserve, which is the confidential minimum selling price agreed by Phillips with the seller. The reserve will not exceed the low pre-sale estimate at the time of the auction.
(b) The auctioneer has discretion at any time to refuse any bid, withdraw any lot, re-offer a lot for sale (including after the fall of the hammer) if he or she believes there may be error or dispute and take such other action as he or she deems reasonably appropriate. Phillips shall have no liability whatsoever for any such action taken by the auctioneer. If any dispute arises after the sale, our sale record is conclusive. The auctioneer may accept bids made by a company affiliated with Phillips provided that the bidder does not know the reserve placed on the lot.
(c) The auctioneer will commence and advance the bidding at levels and in increments he or she considers appropriate. In order to protect the reserve on any lot, the auctioneer may place one or more bids on behalf of the seller up to the reserve without indicating he or she is doing so, either by placing consecutive bids or bids in response to other bidders. If a lot is offered without reserve, unless there are already competing absentee bids, the auctioneer will generally open the bidding at 50% of the lot’s low pre-sale estimate. In the absence of a bid at that level, the auctioneer will proceed backwards at his or her discretion until a bid is recognized and will then advance the bidding from that amount. Absentee bids on no reserve lots will, in the absence of a higher bid, be executed at approximately 50% of the low pre-sale estimate or at the amount of the bid if it is less than 50% of the low pre-sale estimate. If there is no bid whatsoever on a no reserve lot, the auctioneer may deem such lot unsold.
(d) The sale will be conducted in Hong Kong dollars and payment is due in Hong Kong dollars. For the benefit of international clients, pre-sale estimates in the auction catalogue may be shown in US dollars and/or euros and, if so, will reflect approximate exchange rates. Accordingly, estimates in US dollars or euros should be treated only as a guide. If a currency converter is operated during the sale, it is done so as a courtesy to bidders, but Phillips accepts no responsibility for any errors in currency conversion calculation.
(e) Subject to the auctioneer’s reasonable discretion, the highest bidder accepted by the auctioneer will be the buyer and the striking of the hammer marks the acceptance of the highest bid and the conclusion of a contract for sale between the seller and the buyer. Risk and responsibility for the lot passes to the buyer as set forth in Paragraph 7 below.
(f) If a lot is not sold, the auctioneer will announce that it has been ‘passed’, ‘withdrawn’, ‘returned to owner’ or ‘bought-in’.
(g) Any post-auction sale of lots offered at auction shall incorporate these Conditions of Sale and Authorship Warranty as if sold in the auction.
6 Purchase Price and Payment
(a) The buyer agrees to pay us, in addition to the hammer price of the lot, the buyer’s premium and any applicable sales tax (the ‘Purchase Price’). The buyer’s premium is 27% of the hammer price up to and including HK$7,500,000, 21% of the portion of the hammer price above HK$7,500,000 up to and including HK$50,000,000 and 14.5% of the portion of the hammer price above HK$50,000,000. Phillips reserves the right to pay from our compensation an introductory commission to one or more third parties for assisting in the sale of property offered and sold at auction.
(b) Payments must be made by the invoiced party in Hong Kong dollars. Please reference the relevant invoice number. Payment is due immediately following the auction regardless of any intention to obtain any export or import license or other permit for such Lot. Interest will be charged on late payment at the rate of 12% per annum.
(c) If you are a new client bidding online in our Auction for the first time, as a security measure you will be required to pay for your lots by wire transfer only. This is our standard policy for all new online buyers.
As a courtesy to clients who have bid or bought in our sales previously, Phillips will accept American Express, Visa, MasterCard and China Union Pay to pay for invoices of HK$800,000 or less per auction.
(d) Title in a purchased lot will not pass until Phillips has received the Purchase Price for that lot in cleared funds. Phillips is not obliged to release a lot to the buyer until title in the lot has passed and appropriate identification has been provided, and any earlier release does not affect the passing of title or the buyer’s unconditional obligation to pay the Purchase Price.
7 Collection of Property
(a) Phillips will not release a lot to the buyer until we have received payment of its Purchase Price in full in cleared funds, the buyer has paid all outstanding amounts due to Phillips or any of our affiliated companies, including any charges payable pursuant to Paragraph 8 (a) below, and the buyer has satisfied such other terms as we in our sole discretion shall require, including providing information and documentation we require to satisfy our customer due diligence and verification checks for Know Your Customer compliance purposes and completing any antimoney laundering, anti-terrorism financing and sanctions checks. As soon as a buyer has satisfied all of the above conditions, he or she should contact us at +852 2318 2000 to arrange for collection of purchased property.
(b) The buyer must arrange for collection of a purchased lot within seven days of the date of the auction. After the auction, all lots will be stored externally, please call our shipping department on +852 2318 2000 prior to arranging collection. We will levy removal, interest, storage and handling charges on uncollected lots. Purchased lots are at the buyer’s risk, including the responsibility for insurance, from (i) the date of collection or (ii) seven days after the auction, whichever is the earlier. Until risk passes, Phillips will compensate the buyer for any loss or damage to a purchased lot up to a maximum of the Purchase Price paid, subject to our usual exclusions for loss or damage to property.
(c) As a courtesy to clients, Phillips will, without charge, wrap purchased lots for hand carry only. We do not provide packing, handling, insurance or shipping services. We will coordinate with shipping agents instructed by the buyer, whether or not recommended by Phillips, in order to facilitate the packing, handling, insurance and shipping of property bought at Phillips. Any such instruction is entirely at the buyer’s risk and responsibility, and we will not be liable for acts or omissions of third party packers or shippers. Property will be collected by the buyer at the point it is released in the sale location by Phillips to the buyer or to a third-party shipper acting for the buyer. The buyer is responsible for paying any import duties and local taxes payable to import the Property to its final destination.
(d) Phillips will require presentation of government-issued identification prior to release of a lot to the buyer or the buyer’s authorized representative.
8 Failure to Collect Purchases
(a) If the buyer pays the Purchase Price but fails to collect a purchased lot within 30 days of the auction, the buyer will incur a late collection fee of HK$80 per day for each uncollected lot. We will not release purchased lots to the buyer until all such charges have been paid in full.
(b) If a purchased lot is paid for but not collected within six months of the auction, the buyer authorizes Phillips, upon notice, to arrange a resale of the item by auction or private sale, with estimates and a reserve (in the case of an auction) and net sale price (in the case of a private sale) set at Phillips’s reasonable discretion. The proceeds of such resale will be applied to pay for storage charges and any other outstanding costs and expenses owed by the buyer to Phillips or our affiliated companies and the remainder will be forfeited unless collected by the buyer within two years of the resale.
9 Remedies for Non-Payment
(a) Without prejudice to any rights the seller may have, if the buyer without prior agreement fails to make payment of the Purchase Price for a lot in cleared funds within seven days of the auction, Phillips may in our sole discretion exercise one or more of the following remedies:
(i) store the lot at Phillips‘s premises or elsewhere at the buyer’s sole risk and expense;
(ii) cancel the sale of the lot, retaining any partial payment of the Purchase Price as liquidated damages;
(iii) reject future bids from the buyer or render such bids subject to payment of a deposit;
(iv) charge interest at 12% per annum from the date payment became due until the date the Purchase Price is received in cleared funds;
(v) subject to notification of the buyer, exercise a lien over any of the buyer’s property which is in the possession of Phillips and instruct
✱
our affiliated companies to exercise a lien over any of the buyer’s property which is in their possession and, in each case, no earlier than 30 days from the date of such notice arrange the sale of such property and apply the proceeds to the amount owed to Phillips or any of our affiliated companies after the deduction from sale proceeds of our standard vendor’s commission, all sale-related expenses and any applicable taxes thereon; (vi) resell the lot by auction or private sale, with estimates and a reserve set at Phillips’s reasonable discretion, it being understood that in the event such resale is for less than the original hammer price and buyer’s premium for that lot, the buyer will remain liable for the shortfall together with all costs incurred in such resale; (vii) commence legal proceedings to recover the hammer price and buyer’s premium for that lot, together with interest and the costs of such proceedings; (viii) set off the outstanding amount remaining unpaid by the buyer against any amounts which we or any of our affiliated companies may owe the buyer in any other transactions; (ix) release the name and address of the buyer to the seller to enable the seller to commence legal proceedings to recover the amounts due and legal costs; or (x) take such other action as we deem necessary or appropriate.
(b) The buyer irrevocably authorizes Phillips to exercise a lien over the buyer’s property which is in our possession upon notification by any of our affiliated companies that the buyer is in default of payment. Phillips will notify the buyer of any such lien. The buyer also irrevocably authorizes Phillips, upon notification by any of our affiliated companies that the buyer is in default of payment, to pledge the buyer’s property in our possession by actual or constructive delivery to our affiliated company as security for the payment of any outstanding amount due. Phillips will notify the buyer if the buyer’s property has been delivered to an affiliated company by way of pledge.
(c) If the buyer is in default of payment, the buyer irrevocably authorizes Phillips to instruct any of our affiliated companies in possession of the buyer’s property to deliver the property by way of pledge as the buyer’s agent to a third party instructed by Phillips to hold the property on our behalf as security for the payment of the Purchase Price and any other amount due and, no earlier than 30 days from the date of written notice to the buyer, to sell the property in such manner and for such consideration as can reasonably be obtained on a forced sale basis and to apply the proceeds to any amount owed to Phillips or any of our affiliated companies after the deduction from sale proceeds of our standard vendor’s commission, all sale-related expenses and any applicable taxes thereon.
10 Rescission by Phillips
Phillips shall have the right, but not the obligation, to rescind a sale without notice to the buyer if we reasonably believe that there is a material breach of the seller’s representations and warranties or the Authorship Warranty or an adverse claim is made by a third party. Upon notice of Phillips election to rescind the sale, the buyer will promptly return the lot to Phillips, and we will then refund the Purchase Price paid to us. As described more fully in Paragraph 14 below, the refund shall constitute the sole remedy and recourse of the buyer against Phillips and the seller with respect to such rescinded sale.
11 Export, Import And Endangered Species Licences and Permits
Before bidding for any property, prospective buyers are advised to make their own enquiries as to whether a licence is required to export a lot from Hong Kong or to import it into another country.
Prospective buyers are advised that some countries prohibit the import of property made of or incorporating plant or animal material, such as coral, crocodile, ivory, whalebone, Brazilian rosewood, rhinoceros horn or tortoiseshell, irrespective of age, percentage or value.
Accordingly, prior to bidding, prospective buyers considering export of purchased lots should familiarise themselves with relevant export and import regulations of the countries concerned. Please note that the US prohibits the importation of any item containing African elephant ivory. Asian elephant ivory may be imported in to the US only if accompanied by independent scientific analysis of continent of origin and confirmation the object is more than 100 years old.
With regard to any item containing endangered species other than elephant ivory, an importer into the US must provide documented evidence of the species identification and age of an object in order to demonstrate that the item qualifies as an antique. This will require the buyer to obtain an independent appraisal certifying the species of endangered material on the object and certifying that the object is not less than 100 years of age. A prospective buyer planning to import an object containing endangered species into the US may not rely on Phillips cataloguing to establish the species of endangered material on the object or to establish the age of the object and must consult with a qualified independent appraiser prior to placing a bid on the lot.
It is solely the buyer’s responsibility to comply with these laws and to obtain any necessary export, import and endangered species licences or permits. Failure to obtain a licence or permit or delay in so doing will not justify the cancellation of the sale or any delay in making full payment for the lot. As a courtesy to clients, Phillips has marked in the catalogue lots containing potentially regulated plant or animal material, but we do not accept liability for errors or for failing to mark lots containing protected or regulated species.
Export, Import, Sales and/or Use Taxes
Buyers should note that they are responsible for all charges, duties and taxes related to the exportation and importation of lots shipped by them or shipped on their behalf, including any applicable Sales and/or Use Taxes which may be due on importing the property to the United States.
Export and Import Bans and Restrictions
Buyers should note that the export of items offered for sale in this Auction to certain countries (including Russia and Belarus) may be prohibited pursuant to Government sanctions and other regulatory measures in force from time to time. Please contact the department organising the auction for further details.
12 US shipments and imports
Customs Tariffs
Buyers intending to import property into the United States of America should note that US Customs may charge an additional import duty upon the importation of (i) products manufactured or created in mainland China and (ii) printed materials (including photographs, prints, lithographs, books and designs) printed in the UK or Germany.
Phillips will mark with a symbol lots which may be subject to additional US import tariffs, where this is known to us. Please note, however, that any such markings are done by us only as a convenience to bidders. Phillips does not accept liability for errors including failing to mark lots accurately or for the absence of any marking.
US Sales and/or Use Taxes
Buyers requesting shipment to the United States of America of lots bought in the Auction are responsible for paying all and any applicable Sales and/or Use Taxes which may be due.

Authorship Warranty
Phillips warrants the authorship of property in this auction catalogue described in headings in BOLD or CAPITALIZED type for a period of five years from date of sale by Phillips, subject to the exclusions and limitations set forth below and the Important Notices set out in this catalogue immediately following the Guide for Prospective Buyers.
(a) Phillips gives this Authorship Warranty only to the original buyer of record (i.e., the registered successful bidder) of any lot. This Authorship Warranty does not extend to (i) subsequent owners of the property, including purchasers or recipients by way of gift from the original buyer, heirs, successors, beneficiaries and assigns; (ii) property where the description in the catalogue states that there is a conflict of opinion on the authorship of the property; (iii) property where our attribution of authorship was on the date of sale consistent with the generally accepted opinions of specialists, scholars or other experts; (iv) property whose description or dating is proved inaccurate by means of scientific methods or tests not generally accepted for use at the time of the publication of the catalogue or which were at such time deemed unreasonably expensive or impractical to use or likely in our reasonable opinion to have caused damage or loss in value to the lot; or (v) property where there has been no material loss in value from the value of the lot had it been as described in the heading of the catalogue entry.
(b) In any claim for breach of the Authorship Warranty, Phillips reserves the right, as a condition to rescinding any sale under this warranty, to require the buyer to provide to us at the buyer’s expense the written opinions of two recognized experts approved in advance by Phillips. We shall not be bound by any expert report produced by the buyer and reserve the right to consult our own experts at our expense.
If Phillips agrees to rescind a sale under the Authorship Warranty, we shall refund to the buyer the reasonable costs charged by the experts commissioned by the buyer and approved in advance by us.
(c) Subject to the exclusions set forth in subparagraph (a) above, the buyer may bring a claim for breach of the Authorship Warranty provided that (i) he or she has notified Phillips in writing within three months of receiving any information which causes the buyer to question the authorship of the lot, specifying the auction in which the property was included, the lot number in the auction catalogue and the reasons why the authorship of the lot is being questioned and (ii) the buyer returns the lot to Phillips to the salesroom in which it was purchased in the same condition as at the time of its auction and is able to transfer good and marketable title in the lot free from any third party claim arising after the date of the auction. Phillips has discretion to waive any of the foregoing requirements set forth in this subparagraph (c) or subparagraph (b) above.
(d) The buyer understands and agrees that the exclusive remedy for any breach of the Authorship Warranty shall be rescission of the sale and refund of the original Purchase Price paid. This remedy shall constitute the sole remedy and recourse of the buyer against Phillips, any of our affiliated companies and the seller and is in lieu of any other remedy available as a matter of law or equity. This means that none of Phillips, any of our affiliated companies or the seller shall be liable for loss or damage beyond the remedy expressly provided in this Authorship Warranty, whether such loss or damage is characterized as direct, indirect, special, incidental or consequential, or for the payment of interest on the original Purchase Price.

本拍賣會將以港元為競投貨幣,但載於拍賣圖錄內的拍賣前估價除以港元為單位外, 亦或會用美元及或歐元。由於圖錄中的貨幣兌換率是根據圖錄付印時而非拍賣當日的 兌換率而訂,因此美元或歐元的拍賣前估價只供參考用。

拍賣品之狀況
本公司之圖錄只會在多件型作品 (例如印刷品)的描述中提到狀況事宜。但該些狀況資 料並不等於狀況之完整說明。未有提及此等狀況資料亦不表示拍品全無缺陷或瑕疵。

符號圖例 圖錄內提述有關以下符號之意思
0 保證項目 拍賣品標有O 符號代表已獲承擔保證最低出售價。在此情況下,不論拍賣結果如何, 該賣家都可收取一筆由富藝斯保證的最低金額款項。該保證可由富藝斯獨自提供或 與第三方共同提供。
◆ 第三方保證 在富藝斯同意提供最低出售價保證時,便承擔拍賣品不被賣出或以低於最低出售價保 證的價格賣出所涉及的財政風險。 由於可涉及龐大金額,富藝斯可選擇與第三方 分擔有關的財政風險。第三方會在拍賣進行前承諾分擔有關風險,通常是以書面形式 競投,列明不論有否其他競投都會以一個協議金額買入拍賣品。在此情況下,第三方 擔保人須承擔競投未能達到最低出售價保證的風險。若出現其他競投,第三方擔保人 仍可以高於任何書面出價競投。

3 拍賣
如上所述,拍賣會受業務規定及保險書所規限,所有準買家應仔細閱讀。登記拍賣代表 準買家接受業務規定及著作保證。該等業務規定及著作保證可經在拍賣會場張貼通告 或由拍賣官作出公佈之方式進行修改。
有利害關係的各方公佈
在某些情況下對拍賣品有直接或間接利害關係的一方可能對拍賣品作出競投,如出售 拍賣品之遺產之受益人或執行者; 拍賣品之聯權共有人或提供或參與保證的一方, 富藝斯將會 於拍賣廳內公佈有利害關係的各方可能對拍賣品作出競投。
接連投標及競投;無底價拍賣品 拍賣官可代表賣家為任何拍賣品叫第一口價以開始競投。拍賣官更可代表賣家以接連 投標或競投之方式,就拍賣品作出 競投直至達到底價。就不設底價的拍賣品,除非已 有競投,否 則拍賣官一般會以拍品的拍賣前低估價的 50 %開始拍賣。若在此價格下並 無投標,拍賣官會自行斟酌將價格下降繼續拍賣,直至有客戶開始競投,然後再由該投 標價向上繼續拍賣在沒有更高叫價的情況下,以書面投標競投無底價拍賣品會以拍賣 前低估價大約 50 %成交。但若該投標價低於拍賣前低估價的 50 %, 則以該投標價 成交。如果無底價拍賣品沒有任何叫價, 拍賣官會自行決定該拍賣品為流拍。
4 拍賣後
付款
除非與富藝斯於拍賣前已達成書面安排,否則買家須於拍賣後即時以港元付款。 閣下可依照業務規定第6 段所述以電匯方式付款。現金及支票恕不接納。
信用卡

買家請注意富藝斯對拍賣品損失或損壞之責任期限最多為拍賣後七天。
運輸及付運
作為一項予買家的免費服務,富藝斯只可包裝拍品作手提用。我們並不會直接提供 包裝、處理及付運服務。但我們可依據閣下之指示與付運代理協調以促成閣下於 本公司購買貨物之包裝、處理及付運。詳情請參閱業務規定第7段。
出口及入口許可證
在競投任何拍賣品前,我們建議準買家對拍賣品先作獨立調查以確定是否需要以 許可證出口香港或進入其他國家。買家須遵守所有入口及出口之法律及應取得有關的 出口或入口許 可證。不獲發任何所需之許可證或執照並不構成取消買賣或延遲繳付 全數貨款之充分理由。
買家應注意,本次拍賣中出售的物品出口至某些國家/地區(包括俄羅斯和白俄羅斯) 可能因政府制裁和不時生效的其他監管措施而遭禁止。
瀕危物種
由植物或動物材料如珊瑚、鱷魚、象牙、鯨骨、巴西玫瑰木、犀牛角或玳瑁殼,不論其 年份、百分比率或價值,均可能須申領許可證或證書方可入口至美國或其他歐盟以內 或外的國家。請注意能取得出口許可證或證書並不能確保可在另一國家取得進口許可 證或證書,反之亦然。我們建議準買家在競投前向相關政府查核有關野生動植物進口 之規定後再參與競投。買家須負上所有責任取得任何所需出口或進口許可證或證書, 以及任何其他所需文件。請注意美國禁止入口任何含有非洲象牙的產品。亞洲象的象 牙可被進口到美國,而該進口必須附有獨立科學分析報告以證明有關物品的起源地及 確認物品的年期已超過一百年。我們在銷售任何藏品前,均無對藏品進行科學分析, 所以無法確認相關藏品的象牙是來自亞洲及非洲。買家凡購買有關藏品並計畫將有關 藏品進口美國,必須承擔風險並負責支付任何科學分析報告或其他報告的費用。
有關任何含有象牙以外的瀕危物種藏品,進口者須提供證明文件鑑定物種及藏品之 年期以顯示該藏品為古董。買家須進行獨立評估以認證藏品上之瀕危物種物料及認 證藏品之年期為不少於一百年。如欲計劃入口藏品到美國的準買家不應依靠富藝斯編 列於圖錄內藏品上的瀕危物種物料或藏品之年期及必須諮詢具有專業資格的獨立鑑 定者後再參與競投。
請注意我們為方便客戶而在含有可能受管制植物或動物物料的拍賣品上附加標記, 但附加標記時如有任何錯誤或遺漏,富藝斯恕不承擔任何責任。
