WELCOME BY THOMAS PERAZZI
Dear Collectors and Friends, Phillips Watches held our first auction in Hong Kong in December 2015 and has since become a very significant participant in the market.
THOMAS PERAZZI Deputy Chairman, Watches, Head of Watches, Asia
has gained an attractive case patina while keeping the same dial originality. Offered by a fine connoisseur, I am sure it will garner the attention from the international vintage community.
I am absolutely honoured to announce the opening of PHILLIPS PERPETUAL in Hong Kong. After the tremendous success achieved by the London team, we have decided to expand our retail activities into Asia with the launch of the Hong Kong boutique.
Last year we were entrusted for the sale of the Patek Philippe reference 3974J with a unique black dial. This season we are humbled to present to you the possibly unique reference 3974P with opaline Breguet numerals dial. Previously unknown, I really invite you to hear the charming sound of the minute repeater via the platinum case made by the Master Jean-Pierre Hagmann.
Taking one of Hong Kong’s most iconic heritage building as our new home, the Pedder Building located in the heart of Central will enable us to offer unique collector experiences with accessibility to high quality watches, and ultimately delivering first class service all year long.
The independent watchmaker collectors will be pleased to see two names from the “Hall of Fame”, Philippe Dufour and Rexhep Rexhepi. Both fresh-to-the-market and both offered by the original owner, I trust that the bidding from the “Indie” community will be fierce.
I am also delighted to share with you that our watch department will have a permanent base in the Pedder building, making us the only auction house to have premises on both sides of the city.
The vintage Rolex collectors will be thrilled to spot examples from the professional line such as a reference 6263 with so-called “Paul Newman Oyster Sotto” dial, a reference 6265 “Panda Paul Newman” dial and a very rare reference 5517 “Milsub”.
Let me now introduce to you the highlights of the Hong Kong Watch Auction XVII. Literally a star lot of the sale is the extremely well-preserved Rolex reference 6062 in yellow gold with the so-called “Stelline” dial. First offered in our Milestone sale, the watch
I would like to express my deepest gratitude to all those who made our new spaces in Central a reality, and every consignor that have put their trust in our Asia team. I look forward to welcoming you this November in Hong Kong!

ROLEX — A fine and attractive stainless steel chronograph wristwatch with bracelet, ceramic bezel, guarantee and presentation box

Reference No. 116500LN Case No. 5T7559L2 Model Name Cosmograph Daytona Material
Stainless steel
Calibre Automatic, cal. 4130, 44 jewels Bracelet/Strap Stainless steel Rolex Oyster bracelet, max length 180mm Clasp/Buckle Stainless steel Rolex Oyster deployant clasp Dimensions 40mm diameter Signed Case, dial, movement, bracelet and clasp signed Estimate HKD 95,000–160,000 USD 12,200–20,500 Accessories Accompanied by Rolex guarantee stamped Montecristo Jewellers, Canada dated 5th August 2019, instruction manual, product literature, hang tag, 2 additional links, green card holder, fitted presentation box and outer packaging.
Launched to instant acclaim in 2016, the Rolex Cosmograph Daytona ref. 116500LN succeeded the beloved ref. 116520. It retains the robust cal. 4130 movement of its predecessor, yet breaks new ground as the first Daytona in stainless steel to feature Rolex’s innovative Cerachrom bezel. Initially released in two dial variations, the white “Panda” dial creates an eye-catching contrast against the black subdials and Cerachrom bezel that has made it highly coveted. With its growing cult status, the ref. 116500LN remains one of Rolex’s most difficult models to acquire directly from retailers, with extremely long wait lists. Recently discontinued in 2023 and replaced by the new ref. 126500LN, the present example of the iconic Rolex Cosmograph Daytona ref. 116500LN “Panda” is offered complete with its original guarantee and accessories. It will undoubtedly delight collectors seeking this landmark Cosmograph Daytona reference in excellent condition.

Stainless steel
Calibre Automatic, cal. 3285, 31 jewels Bracelet/Strap Stainless steel Rolex Jubilee bracelet, max length 200mm Clasp/Buckle Stainless steel Rolex Jubilee deployant clasp stamped “654” Dimensions 40mm diameter Signed Case, dial, movement, bracelet and clasp signed Estimate HKD 50,000–100,000 USD 6,400–12,800 Accessories Accompanied by Rolex guarantee stamped Oriental Watch Co. Ltd Hong Kong dated 21st March 2020, green card holder, hang tag, instruction manual, product literature, fitted presentation box and outer packaging.
The Rolex ref. 116710BLNR was first presented at the 2013 Baselworld. Applauded by both critics and collectors, its nickname “Batman” was coined for its obvious dual-tone blue and black bezel. Launched in 2019 to replace its predecessor, the ref. 126710BLNR is fitted with an updated caliber 3285 and a 3-link designed Oyster bracelet. The present example features a Jubilee bracelet, paying homage to the line of historic GMT-Masters which were offered a choice of the Oyster or Jubilee bracelets. Rolex scholars quickly bestowed a new nickname, “Batgirl”, to this combination of the blue-black bezel with a 5-link designed bracelet. Presented in “like-new” condition, this present example retains its partial stickers and is further accompanied by its original accessories. This GMT-Master II “Batgirl” is offered by a collector who bought this highly sought-after and timeless collectable in 2020. For those who love the look of the Bat duo, here’s your chance to get both the “Batman” 116710BLN and “Batgirl” 126710BLNR in this auction.

ROLEX — An attractive, sought-after and well-preserved stainless steel wristwatch with bracelet, center seconds, turquoise blue lacquer dial, guarantee and presentation box

Stainless steel
Calibre Automatic, cal. 3230, 31 jewels Bracelet/Strap Stainless steel Rolex Oyster bracelet, max length 195mm Clasp/Buckle Stainless steel Rolex Oyster deployant clasp Dimensions 41mm diameter Signed Case, dial, movement, bracelet and clasp signed Estimate HKD 50,000–80,000 USD 6,400–10,300 Accessories Accompanied by Rolex guarantee dated 21st April 2022, instruction manual, product literature, leather card holder, hang tags, fitted presentation box and outer packaging.
In 2020, Rolex unveiled new interpretations of its iconic Oyster Perpetual, featuring dials in a series of vibrant colors. Evoking the playful ‘Stella’ dials of Rolex’s past, the new models were available with lacquered dials in yellow, blue, green, coral, or baby pink. Much to the delight of aficionados with a predilection for vintage timepieces, the new Oyster Perpetual references were an immediate success, garnering substantial waiting lists at authorized Rolex retailers. The present Oyster Perpetual 41 ref. 123400 features what is arguably the most coveted and desirable hue in the palette – “Turquoise” or “Tiffany” blue. The 41mm Oystersteel case and Oyster bracelet provide robust yet comfortable proportions, while the turquoise blue lacquer dial adds a spirited accent. Inside beats the self-winding cal. 3230. This in-house movement not only drives the central hour, minute and seconds hands with high precision, but also delivers an astonishing 70-hour power reserve. With interest in this specific shade skyrocketing recently, the discontinuation of the 41mm “Turquoise Blue” variant announced by Rolex in spring 2022 renders the present well-preserved example, complete with its full set of accessories, an opportunity for the astute collector to acquire this highly versatile and desirable timepiece immediately.

Introduced in 2000 alongside its stainless steel counterpart ref. 116520, the Rolex Cosmograph Daytona ref. 116509 features the upgraded and Rolex’s first ever in-house self-winding chronograph movement cal. 4130. Hefty, steady and robust, the Rolex Cosmograph Daytona ref. 116509 is the first Daytona to be encased in 18K white gold with matching bracelet during 2005. On top of the lavish upgrade of gold, the present ref. 116509 features a stunning precious hard stone dial known as turquoise. Vibrant in color the hard stone dial that reminds one of the Tiffany blue can also be found on the Rolex Daytona Beach series ref. 116519 unveiled during the millennium. Today, these watches are rare collector’s items. Preserved in excellent overall condition and accompanied with its guarantee and accessories, this is the first turquoise Daytona ref. 116509 offered at Phillips auction. This exotic piece is certainly a breath of fresh air amongst the classic Daytonas.

Synonymous with timeless grandeur, the Rolex Day-Date model with its myriad of dials, bracelets, bezels and uses of case materials. Since 1956, it remains one of the most diverse and exciting flagship models the firm has ever produced. Apart from prototype models, the Day-Date has only been cased in precious metals, attesting to the gravity of its eminence. Released in 2019, the Day-Date ref 128238 inherits the signature fluted bezel and flowing lines that the model is known for. A true President watch, the new model is powered by an upgraded caliber 3255 that boosted its power reserve to 70 hours. Dressed in its full gold armor, its dial is exquisite. Only found in a few places on Earth, turquoise has been prized for thousands of years for its exotic hue. A perfect marriage of gold and blue, each piece of turquoise is organic and unique. To add a dose of extravagance, the applied hour markers are framed in matching yellow gold and set with 32 diamonds, and a Roman VI and IX with 24 diamonds. Exceptionally and preserved in its “like-new” condition, the present example boasts sharp finishes and crisp hallmarks is from circa 2020 and is further accompanied by its full set of accessories.

Calibre Automatic, cal. CH 28-520 C FUS, 34 jewels Bracelet/Strap Stainless steel Patek Philippe bracelet, max length 210mm Clasp/Buckle Stainless steel Patek Philippe deployant clasp Dimensions 40.5mm diameter Signed Case, dial, movement, bracelet and clasp signed Estimate HKD 400,000–800,000 USD 51,300–103,000 Accessories Accompanied by Patek Philippe Certificate of Origin dated 29 September 2015, instruction manual, product literature, hang tag, leather folio, fitted presentation box and outer packaging.
The Patek Philippe Nautilus has cemented itself as horology’s preeminent sports watch icon, evolving over the years to incorporate highly coveted complications. Launched in 2014, the dual-time flyback chronograph ref. 5990/1A succeeded its venerable ref. 5980/1A predecessor. Powered by the cal. CH 28-520 C FUS, it ingeniously integrates the dual-time functionality of the Aquanaut Travel Time ref. 5164/A with an automatic flyback chronograph. The case design mirrors the lines of the ref. 5980/A, with seamlessly integrated dual time zone pushers on the “ear” sides, providing an uncluttered view that complements the Nautilus’ iconic silhouette. This particular example has the subtly elegant gray dial that was discontinued in 2022, superseded by a blue dial iteration.

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 recently 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 2018 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.

Adding depth and legibility is a small detail highlighted in red such as the four dotted power reserve and the first day of the calendar.

Launched in 2006, the Patek Philippe ref. 5960 annual calendar flyback chronograph is another milestone model for the firm. Alongside the Nautilus ref. 5980, this reference marked the first time Patek Philippe incorporated a chronograph function into a non-perpetual calendar model. At the time, most of the manufacturer’s production was fitted with Lemania ébauches, but the ref. 5960 represents the inaugural chronograph movement that was entirely designed and assembled in-house. The novelty of the movement is fully reflected in the aesthetics of the dial on this model. Primarily dominated by the “bull’s eye”, the chronographic subdial is positioned at 6 o’clock, merging the minutes and hours registers into one. This is the first time a 12-hour counter, or any hour counter, is incorporated into a Patek Philippe serially produced timepiece. In addition to the timeless proportions of the Calatrava-inspired 40mm case, the result is a sporty appeal with a distinguished and elegant look. Potentially to become one of the most coveted luxury sports models in watch collecting, rivalling the Nautilus. This single-sealed example from 2009 with a slate dial is complete with its full set of accessories.

The Patek Philippe ref. 5970 was launched in 2004 paying its homage to the legendary 2499. With a contemporary approach to its aesthetics, the reference features a much larger case size measuring 40mm diameter, a significant increase from its predecessor. Furthermore, the reference was the last to feature a Lemania based caliber CH 27-70 Q and stamped with the Geneva seal before it was replaced by the firm’s very first in-house perpetual calendar chronograph caliber via the ref. 5270 and stamped with the new Patek Philippe seal. Introduced in yellow gold, pink gold, white gold and platinum, the white gold iteration features an exquisitely finished brushed silvered dial with blackened white gold hands and indexes giving the dial a perfect contrast as well as enhancing its legibility. The present example ref. 5970G-001 is presented in excellent overall condition. It is believed that no more than 1000 pieces were encased in white gold from 2004 to 2008.

Vacheron Constantin’s Overseas line has long been known for its sporty yet elegant interpretation of the luxury sports watch concept. With the release of the Overseas Tourbillon, the firm introduced a high complication model that pushes the boundaries of haute horology with their superb craftsmanship and mechanical prowess. Powered by the cal. 2160, the brand’s first in-house manufactured self-winding tourbillon movement, it is equipped with a tourbillon carriage that rotates once per minute which aims to enhance the movement’s precision. The entire movement is visible through its sapphire caseback, continuing the brand’s focus on transparency in the current Overseas generation. While large on paper, the 42.5mm watch wears comfortably on the wrist thanks to its slim profile and quick-release strap system that provides the option to swap out the heavier bracelet for lighter options. The addition of a tourbillon complication to the sporty Overseas evokes some paradox, though it demonstrates Vacheron’s ability to engineer and design advanced mechanical timepieces. Offered in excellent overall condition with its original accessories, the present example from 2020 will be a fine addition for any collection, made to be worn on any occasion.

The Audemars Piguet 25721ST is a significant timepiece that holds a special place in the brand’s history. It marks the beginning of the Offshore collection, which was created as a sportier and more robust version of the iconic Royal Oak watch. Unveiled at the Baselworld fair in 1993, the Emmanuel Gueit design caused quite a stir in the watch world due to its staggering proportions. At the time, a 42mm case was considered massive, and many watch enthusiasts were unsure of such a bold move. However, the watch’s popularity soon soared, and it became a source of inspiration for many modern sports watches. The 25721ST boasts a distinctive octagonal case, crafted from stainless steel. The dial features the classic “Tapisserie” pattern, which is a hallmark of the Royal Oak collection. The watch also has a chronograph function, with sub-dials for 30-minute and 12-hour counters. The self-winding Calibre 2126/2840 movement powers the watch and offers a power reserve of up to 55 hours. The present example of this iconic model bears an “E” serial,” boasting a highly desirable “tropical” dial that has aged gracefully over the years with an even and saturated tone. This aging process is the result of a reaction between the dial’s lacquer and the environment, and it is impossible to predict which watches will exhibit this effect. To top it all off, this stunning timepiece is further accompanied by its original warranty, adding another layer of collectibility to an already exceptional piece.

Behind the Offshore’s iconic octagonal bezel and hexagonal screws lies the sophisticated complexity of a triple calendar. Day, date and month emerge in harmony against the matte black Tapisserie dial. The comfortable 38mm steel case and integrated bracelet bear Offshore’s signature contrasting brushed and polished finishes. Within beats the cal. 2127/2827 self-winding movement, used exclusively on Royal Oak Offshore 38mm watches.

It is needless to say that the Royal Oak is easily one of the most iconic and sought-after luxury sports watch in history. Its origin and design is deeply cemented in collectors’ mind since 1972, a legend that turns 51 this years, the model has enjoyed numerous variations and upgrades. Perhaps one of the most jaw-dropping variation that make heads turns is the openworked Royal Oak. Nothing is more enjoyable to be able to see all the mechanics in action, each tick, each click of the teeth and pallets excites its viewer. Unveiled In 2010 at the SIHH (Salon International de la Haute Horlogerie based in Geneva). The new reference 15305 is powered by the caliber 3129, which is the openworked version of Audemars Piguet’s in-house 3120 found in the traditional reference 15300. Kept in the same case diameter as the first Royal Oak sized at 39mm, the present ref. 15305 is a celebration of pink gold and slate grey. A beauty of its architecture can be appreciated on both sides of the watch. Through the anti-reflective sapphire crystal, the hand-finished and skeletonized ruthenium bridges and mainplate, as well as on the caseback side, the remarkable 22-carat gold winding rotor gives you a breath-taking view of this Royal Oak. Offered in excellent condition from the original owner, the present pink gold skeletonized Royal Oak comes with all its accessories.

F.P. Journe debuted in 1999 as an independent watchmaker and with that, his inaugural Tourbillon Souverain was also unveiled, featuring a world premiere remontoire system. A true revolution, Journe’s dedication to pushing the boundaries of haute horology pulled the heartstrings of both critics and collectors, and by 2004, his ingeniousness was taken to a whole new level as he radicalised the way we see tourbillons with the addition of a deadbeat seconds, which became the Remontoire d’Egalité avec Seconde Morte. Encased in a 38mm stainless steel case, the present Tourbillon Souverain is indeed part of the highly exclusive boxset of five limited edition timepieces, made to mark the discontinuation of Journe’s 38mm watches. While the other watches in this set are equipped with movements indistinguishable to those in the regular production models, the movement in this tourbillon is unique. First generation F.P. Journe tourbillons (1999-2003) are strictly fitted with the conventional brass movements with a ‘Remontoir d’Egalité’; rather than a deadseconds complication as per the pink gold movements in the current production. As a nod to his original design, Journe combines the two in the 2015 stainless steel tourbillon, resulting in a movement that is mechanically identical the initial brass cal. 1498 with a base plate and bridges in pink gold. Incrediby rare, only the 38-piece limited edition steel tourbillons will ever have this movement.
Moving onto the dial, the tastefully executed layout draws attention to each individual feature without overcrowding the brilliant bronzecoloured canvas. The one-second Rementoir d’Egalité system is deliberately placed in line with the hours and minutes dial which suggests it is an equal counterpart to the time display. Visible via the large aperture, it emphasises its status as a complication as it provides a constant force to the escapement, acting as a transmission and balancing system for the transfer of power between the mainspring and the escapement. The two large apertures invite its wearer to peek into the fantastic movement within, along with its striking perlage finishes. Numbered 27 of a limited edition of 38 examples, the present Tourbillon Souverain offers the ideal opportunity for connoisseurs to acquire a well-preserved and esteemed masterpiece. It is extremely rare for luxury watches to be encased in steel and other watches from the set, including the Octa Réserve de Marche, the Octa Calendrier, the Chronomètre Souverain and the Chronomètre à Résonance are all available in our current auction.

With an eye on technical innovation for superior timekeeping, F.P. Journe has always sought to create watches that are both beautifully designed and technically sound. With that in mind, the independent horologer has two signature wristwatches that perfectly encapsulates his watchmaking ethos: the Tourbillon Souverain and the Chronomètre á Résonance. Of the two, the Resonance takes precedence for its unique conceptualization and mechanical complexity.
Distinctly different from later examples, the current dial is composed of two symmetrically positioned 12-hour dials, each with their own small seconds subdial. Sandwiched between the two, at the twelve o’clock position, is a power reserve indicator drawing inspiration from marine chronometers of the past. The purpose of this power reserve indicator is reversed, not indicating how many hours of power remain, but rather how many hours since the movement was last wound.
Inspired by the work of the great 18th century watchmaker Antide Janvier, and ultimately influenced by Abraham-Louis Breguet, Journe took on the challenge in creating the first-ever wristwatch that uses two resonating escapements, placed very closely together, that feed off each other’s dissipating energy. Two is better than one, the synchronised escapements enhance the watch’s precision and are less susceptible to discrepancies than a solitary unit.
With the dashing good looks of a first generation Résonance, the movement that powers the present timepiece is identical to the pink gold cal. 1499.3 in the present production. This timepiece stands as a horological dream that harnesses a resonance phenomenon to provide unparalleled chronometric performance and an enduring demonstration of F.P. Journe’s mastery of complex high watchmaking.
With 38 examples made only, the present Chronomètre á Résonance is no ordinary specimen and is part of the highly coveted limited edition boxset of five emblematic Journe creations. Notably, these watches are the last of their kind that measure at 38mm as F.P. Journe bids farewell to the traditional dress watch case size in 2015. The overall design evokes the original configuration in production from 2000 to 2009 with the most obvious difference in its rare stainless steel case.
Numbered 27 of a limited edition of 38 pieces, the present stainless steel Chronomètre á Résonance is certainly a peculiar sight for Journe collectors, preserved in “like-new” condition. In addition, it is extremely rare for luxury watches to be encased in steel and other watches from the set, including the Octa Réserve de Marche, the Octa Calendrier, the Chronomètre Souverain and the Tourbillon Souverain are all available in our current auction.

First introduced in 2002, the Octa Calendrier enjoyed instant recognition at the Grand Prix d’Horlogerie de Genève and was honoured with the ‘Special Jury Prize’ by the most prestigious award ceremony in the watch industry. This annual calendar dress watch is quintessentially an F.P Journe, in both its design language and movement. Housed in a 38mm case, the present Octa Calendrier is part of the 2015 limited edition box set of stainless steel watches that celebrated the end of Journe’s classical case size. The warm, yellow-toned dial creates the perfect juxtaposition against the cool steel case and is delicately finished with a softly-grained texture. To the left of the dial, the annual calendar takes center-stage as it indicates the day and month in two apertures, followed by an automatically advancing date for months with 29, 30 and 31 days. The overall dial layout is distinctly clean and legible, with the hours, minutes and small seconds displayed in a separate guilloche dial on the right.
While the timepiece itself is undeniably handsome, it is the movement that F.P. Journe is famed for. Since the debut of the original Octa Reserve de Marche in 2001, mechanical F. P Journe watches have been divided into two types of movements, the manually-wound ‘Souverain’ and self-winding ‘Octa’ (Latin for ‘infinite’). Remarkably, all models in Octa family are identical, both in diameter and thickness, equipped with fully-integrated complications in the same volume. This automatic, caliber 1300.3 movement is crafted in pink gold and boasts handfinished fausses côtes embellishments. By tastefully balancing sophisticated functions through harmonious proportions and an intelligible dial layout, the present stainless steel Octa Calendrier, numbered 27 of a limited edition of 38 pieces, achieves a subtle perfection that reflects its creator’s unwavering standards. It invites its wearer to witness Journe’s genius that transforms technology into an artform. An opportunity as rare as the watch itself, Phillips is delighted to offer the present Octa Calendrier alongside other watches from the set, including the Octa Réserve de Marche, the Chronomètre à Résonance, the Chronomètre Souverain and the Tourbillon Souverain in our current auction.

The Octa Réserve de Marche holds an auspicious place in F.P Journe’s oeuvre as the brand’s first selfwinding wristwatch. Produced between 2001 to 2014, the debutants were first fitted with the brass cal. 1300, before transitioning to a more opulent pink gold movement in 2004. A quintessential Journe creation, the present Octa Réserve de Marche is no ordinary example. Numbered 27 of a limited edition of 38 pieces, this timepiece is exclusively armoured in stainless steel and is a part of the boxset that marked the end of an era, where 38mm cases made their final appearance in the F.P. Journe catalogue in 2015. The case is made distinctive by its seamless and sensual curves, along with the watchmaker’s signature flat crown embellished with a rope-like grip. Aesthetically majestic, the dial shines on its own, boasting a softly grained yellow gold canvas, paired with elegant blued steel hands and the iconic stand-alone silver guilloché dial for the hours and minutes. Between 8 and 9 o’clock is a power reserve indicator, with a large date aperture above, highlighting F.P Journe’s principle of “invention and manufacture.” Every element, even auxiliary functions, fulfils a rationale aligned with its creator’s vision.
At its core lies the revolutionary cal. 1300.3, the movement that laid the foundation for F.P Journe’s automatic complications. Its ingenious architecture allows complications such as the annual calendar and flyback chronograph to smoothly integrate into the modest 38mm case, while powering an unmatched 120-hour power reserve, without drastic augmentations. Destined to be collected by passionate connoisseurs of the brand, the present stainless steel Octa Réserve de Marche, numbered 27 of a limited edition of 38 pieces, conjures an alluring blend of technical prowess, refined aesthetics and exceptional rarity. It embodies the artistic ethos that animated F.P Journe’s genius - one that values technical innovation over ostentation. Furthermore, it is extremely rare for luxury watches to be encased in steel and other watches from the set, including the Tourbillon Souverain, the Octa Calendrier, the Chronomètre Souverain and the Chronomètre à Résonance are all available in our current auction.

An iconic backbone of the brand, the Chronomètre Souverain epitomises F.P. Journe’s undying commitment to cognitive design and precision. Translated from marine chronometers of the early 20th century, the model was introduced in 2005 and received instant recognition at the Grand Prix d’Horlogerie de Genève, winning the Favourite Men’s Watch award of the year. Granted the GPHG is the most prestigious award ceremony in Haute horology, it not only cemented his standing within the industry but further elevated his presence beyond the watch community. With only a small number of pieces produced, along with a handful of custom requests from existing clients, this model has since established itself as one of the brand’s most coveted dress watches. Embodying Journe’s iconic design, the present Chronomètre Souverain is part of the ultra-rare 2015 limited edition boxset that was made to turn heads. The present example is made apparent by its extraordinary two-toned dial, boasting a distinct Clous de Paris guilloche centre in the most gorgeous golden hue, surrounded by a silvered hour chapter with a smooth granulated finish. Complementing its cool steel case, the dial is topped with blued steel hands with matching Arabic numerals. The power reserve indicator, flanked at 3 o’clock, is an interesting mechanism that indicates upwards towards “0”, rather than reading downwards heading from “0” to “56”. A calculated move by the watchmaker, this feature was borrowed from marine chronometer clocks and is supposed to tell its wearer how many hours have advanced since the watch was wound, instead of the number of hours remaining. Complete by a subsidiary seconds register, strategically placed between 7 and 8 o’clock, the dial is well-balanced and very easy on the eyes.
Because the Chronomètre Souverain has the largest hands of any watch in the set, the dark blue of the dial is more prominent here than on any of the others, making the colour of numerals more prominent. Despite being simple the Chronomètre Souverain includes some clever details, including the shrunken “7” and “8” on the dial. Neither is immediately apparent, but it ensures that the seconds sub-dial does not cut into any of the numerals. Belonging to the manual-winding Souverain family, the present timepiece is the reflection of independent watchmaking at its finest, driven by the in-house cal. 1304 made entirely of pink gold. On display via its sapphire caseback, the movement has two mainspring barrels in parallel, working in unison to power the wristwatch. Beautifully executed, each component is hand-finished with a combination of perlage and sunburst patterns, further defined by the chamfered edges and Côte de Genève bridges. Numbered 27 of a limited edition of 38 pieces, the current Chronomètre Souverain from the 38mm Steel Set is a tastefully crafted precision instrument made for the modern gentry. Offered in “like-new” condition, Phillips is deeply honoured to present this rare, exquisite timepiece, alongside other watches from the set, including the Octa Réserve de Marche, the Chronomètre à Résonance, the Chronomètre Souverain and the Tourbillon Souverain in our current auction.

1921 was the birth of the Tank Cintrée (Tank Curve) during the Roaring Twenties of economic prosperity following WWI. Never seen before, Louis Cartier blazed into the scene with his radical inception of the Tank Cintrée with a case shape that naturally curved into hugging the shape and anatomy of the human wrist. Since then, the Tank Cintrée has been a stable within the Cartier wristwatch collection, and has enjoyed a variety of designs. Fast forward to the 90s, Cartier decided to finesse its design with a adaptable styling and contemporary complication. Coupled with two mechanical movements operated by two faceted crowns fitted into a single case, the Tank Cintrée Dual-time with an attractive split dial was born. At the same time, Cartier celebrated its heritage in 1998 with the launch of the Collection Privée Cartier Paris, a series of iconic designs with mechanical movements from the past century. From the Crash, Obus, Chinoise, Asymétrique, and of course, the Tank Cintrée, the collection were produced in only limited numbers until 2008. Stunning and preserved in its “new-old-stock” condition and retains even its original caseback stickers, this pink gold Tank Cintrée Dual Time is part of the CPCP collection made in a limited edition of 100 pieces. Each numbered for its exclusivity, the amusement lies on its dial. Created for the Asian market in 2004, the second time-zone dial at the bottom is injected with a twist of playfulness with the use of Chinese numerals. Incredibly handsome and sophisticated with subtlety that carries all the CPCP characteristics such as the rosette guilloché finishing on the dial that radiates out to the whole dial, the present example is numbered 66 from the limited edition series. A true collector’s gem cherished by its original owner and complete with all its CPCP accessories, this is an easy one for the discerned collector to pull the trigger.

Released in 2010, the Vagabondage II was F.P. Journe’s second timepiece featuring a tortue-shaped case. While the story of the Vagabondage is certainly an interesting one involving the request from a loyal client, to commissioning for a reputable Parisian House of Luxury, as well as to creating one off pieces for a charity auction, the very first limited edition series was released in 2006 via the Vagabondage I. The Vagabondage II is an interesting and innovative timepiece featuring jumping hours and minutes via rotating discs indicated through apertures that are perfectly aligned in the center of the dial along with its small seconds. Interestingly and quite unusually no brand name is mentioned on the dial but a cavalcade of details display the brand’s unmistakable genetic codes. The watch houses the in-house caliber 1509 in pink gold, fitting perfectly into the case, beautifully finished, and features a constant force device that ensures that the energy from the mainspring is equally distributed with no loss each time the discs jump. Released with a limited edition in 68 pieces in pink gold and 69 pieces in platinum, the Vagabondage II is certainly a rare and unorthodox timepiece. Cherished by its original owner, the present platinum Vagabondage II retains its impeccable original case proportions and finishing throughout the timepiece. Sold in 2011 at the F. P Journe Hong Kong Boutique, the case numbered engraved on the back reveals the icing on the cake for this piece. Numbered 3 out of 69 pieces, this is the earliest piece from the production batch to appear on the market. Tortue-shaped timepieces from Monsieur Journe are a rarity within his creations, making this example a highly collectible piece from the independent master watchmaker of our times.

Ever since the release of his first model in 2001, Richard Mille has been known for visionary and avant-garde designs with an aesthetic never seen before in watchmaking history. Since their beginning, Mille has pushed the limits of horology, making some of the most technical watches of the 21st century. His cutting-edge designs are immediately recognizable and are sophisticated, practical, and comfortable on the wrist. The movements are manufactured to be worn in extreme conditions using revolutionary materials. The present RM 67-02 is in perfect tune with Mille’s philosophy pushed to the limits as this ultra-light piece weighs a jaw-dropping mere 32 grams (including the strap) thanks to the combination of Quartz and Carbon TPT composite materials and grade 5 titanium used to create the baseplate and bridges of the movement. Richard Mille designed this model to be adapted to various sporting disciplines. This is why several of the brand’s partners have developed an RM 67-02 in the colours of their respective countries to test the abilities of this automatic calibre in a range of settings. The present RM67-02 was developed with Alexander Zverev, the German Tennis superstar who turned pro when he was 16 in 2013. Some notable achievement from this rising young tennis star, where he finished in the top 10 in the world ranking for five straight years from 2017-2021, winning 6 ATP Tour in 2021 and currently hold the record of the youngest players born since 1990 with a total of 21 titles under his belt. The bezel and caseback of the present example are in Quartz TPT with a red Carbon TPT for the case band. Lastly, Richard Mille added a special touch on the bridges that are hand-painted in the colours of Germany, which is the birthplace of Alexander Zvervev. In excellent condition, the watch comes with its complete set of accessories.

Debuting in 1992, this highly attractive Audemars Piguet minute repeater pioneered the integration of a jumping hour display a complication pairing not seen before. The ingenious jump hour lends visual intrigue and mechanical novelty, echoing the dynamic Art Deco watches of the 1920s. The hour numerals rotate on a disk beneath an aperture, advancing precisely as the central minute hand aligns with each new hour. This clean, minimalist display, revealing only the hour through a small window, exemplifies the elegant functionalism that defined the Art Deco aesthetic. Audemars Piguet previously pioneered minute repeating wristwatches with jumping hours, most famously for John Wallace Shaeffer, Vice President of the Allied Chemical Corporation. This modern tribute from circa 2002 is offered in excellent overall condition, its repeater chiming with pleasing tone and clarity, in phase with the time display. The present watch carries forward the legacy of Audemars Piguet’s most iconic jumping hour minute repeaters, bringing Art Deco inspiration into the modern era.

A renowned fourth-generation watchmaker from Nice in France, Daniel Roth moved to Vallée de Joux in 1967 and first began working briefly with Jaeger-LeCoultre, before then joining Audemars Piguet. After that, he devoted himself to one-year further studies dedicated to Abraham-Louis Breguet’s works, before embarking on a 14-year career with Breguet in 1973, which was owned by the Chaumet brothers at the time. He contributed significantly to the revival of Breguet’s workshop and has famously designed and produced the first perpetual calendar wristwatch for the brand. This period was monumental to Roth’s development as an independent watchmaker who embraces the heritage of watchmaking, while having his own distinctive aesthetics. In 1988, Roth ventured to starting his own company amidst the recovery from the quartz crisis. Any devoted Daniel Roth watch collectors would know that the most sought-after models are often produced between the years from 1988 to 1994, when Roth still had complete liberty to the design and production of his watches, before his brand was taken control by the Singapore watch retailer The Hour Glass. The present watch is numbered 19, indicating that it is a rare example from early production. Reminiscent of the awe-striking beauty of the Breguet No. 160 MarieAntoinette pocket watch, which displays its stunning wood-polished pink gold plates, bridges and moving parts on an open-worked dial, this present watch also showcases a mesmerizing pink gold movement
inside its yellow gold double-ellipse case. Exposed to the wearer on both the front dial and sapphire case back, the pink gold barrel, bridges and open plates with the most exquisite hand engravings would not fail to enchant you. The patina echoes with the burin marked details of the hand-engravings to emit a brilliant shimmer consisting of a fascinating shade of pink, bronze and silver, rendering a marvellous sight together with the blued hours. The dial design of the timepiece also exhibits a continuation of the Breguet aesthetics, often resonated in Roth’s work, and features the classic satin-finished chapter rings decorated by the hand-made ‘filet sauté’ guilloché on the rim. To astute Roth collectors, the opportunity to own this watch is extremely rare. Not your average chronograph, according to our research this is by far the only example known to have such intriguing combination. An unusual clash of yellow and pink yet evidently harmonious and beautiful, each hand-engraved floral decoration with the master’s standard leads your throughout every single component of this gorgeous timepiece powered by the Lemania 2320 movement. Well-preserved with strong case proportions, the hallmarks behind each straight lug is deep and intact. With collectors recognizing the importance and extreme rarity of early Daniel Roth creations, this dazzling skeletonized timepiece is a dream and deserves to be heralded as a crown jewel to watch collecting.

Encased in a Roth’s signature double-ellipse case in white gold, the present example is an extremely rare configuration of the reference C127S (S for Squelette – skeletonized in French). The Roth Retrograde was first introduced to the watch community at Baselworld in April 1991 and was later released in 1993. It is estimated that the Retrograde was produced in low hundreds, with the Skeleton Retrograde produced in even smaller numbers. Most of the Retrogrades found on the market today are produced after mid-1990’s. The present watch is stamped No. 32 on the movement, indicating that it is from early production. While examples with Arabic numerals are believed to be introduced later than those with Roman numerals, the unengraved case back of the present example also hints that the present watch is likely produced in the early 1990’s. The rarity of this watch stands in equal measure to its exquisite quality. The openwork dial renders all minute details of the beautifully engraved movement visible to the wearer, and what joy it is to see the jumping hour mechanism in action, with even the 4 o’clock driving wheel interacting with the hour and minute wheel observable. No words can express the experience of seeing this wonderful creation for yourself.

Unveiled at SIHH 2014, the Cartier took a new spin on the Tank Louis Cartier. Reinterpret in literally the most transparent way, the model with a Renault Tank silhouette craved out its interior completely. The result is an astounding skeletonized wristwatch with an uncanny floating effect, exposing the wonders of mechanic works of the in-house caliber 9616 MC. Every winding gear and barrel of the 159 components surrounding the large circular bridge invites you to admire through the sapphire secured to the inside of the shock absorbers. Sized at 39.2mm x 30mm with an off center small seconds at 8 o’clock, the timepiece fits with stunning presence on the wrist. Well-received by the collectors’ community, Cartier further released a pink gold variant the following year. Preserved in excellent overall condition with its full set of accessoires, this Tank Louis Cartier Skeleton Sapphire in white gold is numbered 87 on its caseback. For those who favor the Cartier Tank design and appreciate the marvels of Mystery clocks by the brand, this might be the perfect marriage of both icons.

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”. But perhaps the most exciting feature of this watch lies beyond telling time. The highlight of the show for many, is the 7-link maillon bracelet, a truly rare feat that drives collectors wild. A first model in the Privée collection to be offered with a bracelet, the construction of this brick bracelet is simply stunning. A bracelet that definitely carries a heft, the present platinum Tank Normale features a seamless matching platinum bracelet with a concealed clasp that streamlines the entire look of the watch. On the wrist, it sits beautifully with impeccable style. Presented in absolutely unworn condition, this is a brand new example engraved with a lucky number 008 from a limited edition of 100 pieces. Here’s a spectacular chance to skip the waiting list to acquire one of the most handsome release by Cartier.

The Rolex ref. 6238 chronograph stands as a pivotal timepiece in the company’s history, bridging the classic chronograph models preceding the 1960s and the Cosmograph Daytona that would follow. Directly descended from the 1930s ref. 3525, Rolex’s inaugural Oystercased screw-down crown chronograph, the ref. 6238 retains the timeless monochrome dials and outer tachymeter scales of its eminent forebears. Yet it also pioneers several key design elements later embodied in the now iconic Daytona, including the oversized winding crown, prominent chronograph pushers, sturdy Oyster case, and simple baton indices. Thus, collectors have fittingly bestowed upon the groundbreaking ref. 6238 the nickname “Pre-Daytona.” With its sleek, modernist “grené” finished matte black dial— a mesmerizing rarity, as stately silver dials were the norm for this reference—the present ref. 6238 seduces the eye with its decidedly dashing mid-20th century aesthetic. The galvanic signature and minimalist scales on the dial mark this as a second-generation grené execution, while the subtle “T-SWISS-T” inscription at 6 o’clock signals the use of luminescent Tritium in the handsome hands and hour markers.
As the sporty Daytona references 6263 and 6265 have risen to grail status and utmost collectability in recent decades, so too does the exceptionally scarce ref. 6238 in exemplary condition prove a must-have prize for the savvy collector of important vintage Rolex chronographs. This watch’s historical significance and visual magnificence unite to make the ref. 6238 one of the most coveted chronographs ever produced by the storied House of Rolex.

ROLEX — An incredible, beautifully preserved and rare stainless steel diver’s wristwatch with centre seconds, gas escape valve, date, “double red”, ‘Mark IV’ dial, bracelet, guarantee and presentation box
Property from an Important Japanese Collector 重要日本私人收藏
Conceived as a watch for professional divers, the Sea-Dweller was launched in 1967. At the time of production, it was among the most reliable and robust diver’s watches available on the market. Water resistant to 610 meters, its capabilities exceeded that of the Submariner. The watch featured a triple lock crown to ensure its waterresistant ability. The first examples, or “prototypes” displayed a single red Sea-Dweller script. It was only later, starting with the “ Mk I Patent Pending Sea-Dweller Double Red” that the dial showed “Sea Dweller Submariner 2000” in two red lines, earning its moniker “Double Red Sea-Dweller”. While the first examples did not have a helium escape valve, Rolex eventually fitted their Sea-Dwellers with this mechanism, allowing the trapped helium to escape easily. When reference 1665 was first released, Rolex had not patented the technology yet. Thus, the earliest Sea-dwellers were engraved “Patent Pending Rolex Oyster Gas Escape Valve” on the caseback. Among the very last examples produced, the present watch is fitted with a Mk IV dial, evidenced by the “closed 6” and the spiked coronet. This dial variation was among the last and was used until Rolex ceased production of reference 1665.

Released in 1988, the Rolex Cosmograph Daytona ref.16520 was the firm’s first Daytona model to feature a self-winding caliber. As the brands first, the reliable Zenith El Primero based cal. 4030 was considered as one of the best self-winding chronograph movements at the time. Discontinued in 2000, it was replaced by the ref. 116520 featuring Rolex’s first in-house self-winding chronograph movement. Fitted with the last out-sourced caliber, the ref. 16520 commands a higher value today and is very popular among collectors and enthusiasts in the market. While the entire reference has appreciated in value over the years due to its iconic status being the last ever to feature an out-sourced movement, some examples from various series has proved to separate itself from the rest making them extremely rare and highly soughtafter by collectors. In the manufacturing process of the dial, one of the factors contributing to the unique “tropical” effect is the varnish used at the time by Rolex, Zapon. Applied on top of the silvered registers,
the varnish for some examples were not applied equally. In 2005, acclaimed Italian auctioneer noticed a difference in the colour of the register originally silver whilst putting together an auction and despite its natural imperfection, the watch was sold for double its estimate, hence examples bearing a N, S, T and W serial with “tropical” brown registers received the attention from collectors. However, usually witnessed with lighter shades of brown, a few examples that has surfaced in the market featured registers in much darker “espresso-like” hue earning its nickname the “Darth Vader”. Much like its moniker of the dark lord, the present ref. 16520 bears a dial with tropical registers that is so intense which reminds one of Darth Vader’s armour. Boasting strong case proportion, well-defined lugs and a “N” serial, the present example is an early specimen from circa 1992. Furthermore it is complete with its full set of accessories with a guarantee stamped by an Italian retailer.

The storied union between the “prancing horse” and “sweeping hands” commenced in 1993, when Ferrari forged a symbiotic partnership with Girard-Perregaux to launch their inaugural timepiece. Adorned with the “cavallino rampante” upon its dial, the flyback chronograph was enthusiastically received among discerning Ferrari collectors and the Japanese market alike. Buoyed by shared success, the two firms persisted in releasing exemplary timepieces uniting Italian motoring heritage with Swiss horological expertise. Come 1997, Girard-Perregaux and Ferrari fittingly celebrated the legendary marque’s 50th anniversary in unison, unveiling the present exceptional limited edition “F50” perpetual calendar chronograph to mark the milestone occasion. Ferrari likewise introduced the F50 supercar in honor of its half-century, with merely 349 examples of this tour de force ever assembled. This anniversary tribute watch stands as a consummate emblem of the storied alliance between racing stable and atelier - channeling the dynamism of the track through the nuanced intricacy of haute horlogerie. Preserved in exceptional condition, the present watch comes with a special winding presentation box.
Also included in this lot is the Sport Timer pour Ferrari Limited Edition Stopwatch, the ultimate trackside complement for Ferrari devotees launched by Girard-Perregaux in 2000 to celebrate an enduring alliance with motoring’s most hallowed name. Encased in lightweight titanium with a satin matte finish, the 50mm chronograph makes a bold impression. Beneath the sapphire crystal, the inky dial maximizes the case dimensions, with pronounced Arabic numerals, hands, and subdials ensuring flawless legibility down to 1/10th of a second. Accompanied by its original wooden case with guarantee and leather lanyard, this barely used stopwatch exemplifies a bygone era of analogue racing pursued with grit and instinct alone. The present example numbered 543 of a limited edition of 2000 pieces remains the quintessential accessory for devotees of the Prancing Horse.

The Laureato holds an eminent place in Girard-Perregaux’s history as the manufacture’s most iconic model. Yet unlike other legendary watches, this trailblazer began life as a quartz timepiece. When first introduced in 1975 amid the dawn of integrated bracelet sports watches, the Laureato boldly brought Girard-Perregaux’s forwardthinking approach to quartz into this burgeoning genre. Remaining at the vanguard, Girard-Perregaux developed the groundbreaking 32,768 Hz caliber GP-350 in-house quartz movement in 1971. This frequency would become the standard for virtually all quartz watches. Mechanical Laureato models arrived in 1995, housing the manufacture’s most complex calibers within the iconic design. In 2017, Girard-Perregaux unveiled the Laureato Skeleton Ceramic, melding modern materials with transparency. The openworked cal. 1800 provides a striking backdrop, having first appeared in the 1966 Skeleton Automatic. In this classic round watch, the ornate black and gold palette offset the contemporary skeletonization. However, within the sleek 42mm ceramic Laureato case, the movement makes a decidedly different impression. Ceramic’s urban modernity heightens the tech aesthetic, while its lightness and scratch resistance enhance wearability. With its smooth curves, the Laureato softens its cutting-edge materials. The lightweight case and bracelet offer all-day comfort, continuing Girard-Perregaux’s spirit of innovation. Standing apart from its quartz origins, this contemporary edition pays homage to the enduring elegance of the Laureato design. The present example is offered in “like-new” condition and complete with all its accessories.

In homage to Galileo Galilei, the renowned Italian scientist and godfather of modern science, Panerai conceived the “Lo Scienziato” collection. Galilei’s revolutionary discoveries in physics, astronomy, mathematics and engineering were matched only by his ingenuity in conquering the quandaries of timekeeping. His technique of employing Jupiter’s moons as a celestial clock to calculate longitude at sea remains an astonishing innovation. To honor this legacy, in 2010 Panerai unveiled the “Lo Scienziato” models, available in Radiomir and Luminor models. The inaugural limited edition flaunting the novel in-house cal. P.2005/S was the Radiomir Tourbillon GMT Ceramica. This stately timepiece, graced with a black ceramic case, was limited to 150 examples. The present model, numbered 61, exhibits a captivating semiskeletonized dial. A triple barrel guarantees a remarkable 6-day power reserve, while a rotating tourbillon occupies the 10 and 11 o’clock positions. An additional hand indicates a second time zone, with a day/ night marker at 3 o’clock. Subtle small seconds reside at 9 o’clock, and the rear caseback features a power reserve indicator. Offered in excellent overall condition and complete with accessories, this exquisite Panerai treasure pays rightful homage to an extraordinarily ingenious pioneer of science.

The Patek Philippe reference 5500 and 4900 are among the extremely scarce limited edition wristwatch models made by Patek Philippe before the new millennium. Launched as a limited edition set of seven watches, four men’s model (ref. 5500) and three lady’s model (ref. 4900), it was released to commemorate the opening of Patek Philippe’s Plan-les-Ouates facility in 1997. Each piece is delivered with, in addition to the normally occurring Certificate of Origin, also a COSC certification and a limited edition attestation detailing the number of pieces made. Specifically, only 1100 pieces of reference 5500 were made in yellow gold, 500 in pink gold, 250 in white gold and 150 in platinum. The lady’s model is even scarcer, with an output of 500 pieces in yellow gold, 150 pieces in pink gold and 100 pieces in white gold. The present example Patek Philippe Pagoda ref. 5500 in pink gold is offered is fitted with the most legible dial out of the collection. Featuring refined chemin de fer running around the dial, the use of petite elongated pink gold applied numerals matches perfectly with the vertical Pagoda case. A timepiece of elegance, the perfect dress watch for a gentleman, the present ref. 5500 is well-preserved and is accompanied with its original accessories.

Arguably the last true “legacy model” made by Patek Philippe, the ref. 3796 was introduced in 1982 and in production till the late 1990s in lieu of the discontinued ref. 96- the first and original Calatrava of the 1930s. The two models look identical when on the wrist, both measuring at 31mm in diameter. The minor differences are the sapphire glass, the new cal. 215 S of the present reference and the caseback which is now waterproof and with a small flap for easier opening. A striking timepiece for its size, the present Calatrava ref. 3796 is encased in 18K pink gold with an equally charming pink gold Sigma dial, as seen by the lower-case Greek letter sigma beside the “Swiss” signature at the bottom of the dial, indicating that the hands and hour markers of the watch are made of solid gold. Previously unknown, the present Calatrava is the 77th pink gold ref. 3796 to have resurfaced onto the market, from which only 32 examples boast this clean, divine, pink-on-pink configuration. Boasting a desirable pink on pink configuration and preserved in outstanding overall condition, it is a true testament to Patek Philippe’s discreet elegance and ageless aesthetics.

Introduced in 1998, the Patek Philippe ref. 5059 along with ref. 5050 were the only perpetual calendar wristwatches available with center seconds since the ref. 2497 and 2438-1. With a distinct appeal, the 36mm diameter officer-style case with a hinged caseback encases a perfectly symmetrical with painted black Roman numerals and retrograde date indication. The reference 5050 and 5059 share the sophisticated, self-winding caliber 315 S-QR with its striking 21K gold rotor, based on the caliber 315 SC featuring center seconds only. A robust and state-of-theart in-house movement, it features an intriguing retrograding date complication as part of its perpetual calendar function. The reference was produced in all four metals with an estimated 1200 – 1400 examples produced until the reference was discontinued in 2006. It is believed that only 340 examples were produced with a pink gold cases. The present ref. 5059R-017 is definitely out of the ordinary from the family. Striking at first sight with a sunburst brown dial, this is a highly rare example from a special edition by Patek Philippe made available to London. Preserved with care, according to our research, this 5059R is the first example to appear in the auction market in such an attractive configuration. Fitted with the same hue of brown as the unique 5059R018 with Breguet numerals “MSO’ monogram dial that was sold for $264,600USD at PHILLIPS New York Auction: Seven, this variant is elevated with pink gold applied Roman numerals and white centre seconds and retrograde hand instead. Offered in excellent overall condition from 2017 and accompanied by its original Certificate of Origin and its full set of accessories, this is a once in a blue moon opportunity to acquire an understated perpetual calendar wristwatch manufactured by none other than Patek Philippe.

Further delivered with Patek Philippe Extract from the Archives confirming the production of the present timepiece with black dial and rose gold Breguet numerals in 2007 and its subsequent date of sale on December 14th, 2007.
While Patek Philippe’s Reference 5013 spanned two centuries, first released in 1992 and was in production for a total of 18 years before it was discontinued in 2010, it has the classic charm and iconic style of early 20th-century watches with a tonneau-shaped case and grand complication movement featuring repeat function combined with perpetual calendar and moon phase. The brand has had a long tradition of manufacturing repeating perpetual calendar timepieces with exceptional pocket watches reaching back more than 100 years. However, this model is a modern marvel with an automatic movement, their first for a perpetual calendar minute repeating watch. There is a contemporary feel with the pink gold case and rare black dial combination, which features a retrograde date hand. A challenging complication to add to a timepiece, the feature dates to the late 19th century and follows in the footsteps of V. Piguet. In early 2008, Patek Philippe announced they would have a more significant US presence by opening a salon at the famed Tiffany and Company in New York City. The two had long and prestigious relationships since 1851 when Antoine Norbert de Patek and Charles Lewis Tiffany shook hands and agreed to a special relationship.
Since then, many Patek Philippe watches have sported the Tiffany & Co. signature, and while the present reference 5013R does not have the signature, the watch was sold in the first year the salon opened in Tiffany’s. It is stamped on the original Certificate of Origin and the name The Henri Stern Agency, the Patek Philippe distributor in the United States. The present example is in excellent overall condition; the watch epitomises Patek Philippe’s workmanship and design. This scarce timepiece allows a collector to acquire and appreciate one of the modern masters of horology.

Journe white gold deployant clasp, crocodile strap, loupe, spring bar tool, cloth, fitted presentation box, outer packaging and slip case.
Launched in 2002, the F.P. Journe Ruthenium Collection is comprised of five of the watchmaker’s early brass movement pieces, including the Tourbillon Souverain, the Octa Calendrier, the Octa Réserve de Marche Jour et Nuit, the Chronomètre à Resonance, and most notably, the Octa Chronographe like the present example. Each model was released as a 99-piece limited edition and stylistically, their larger 40mm case diameter closed the door on their predecessors that measured at a traditional 38mm, ushering in the more modern iterations that have drawn admirers of Journe’s craft year after year. Though seldom used in watches, ruthenium is rare inert metal that is closely related to the platinum family and is often found in aerospace engineering for its natural resistance to oxidation and impeccable hardness. Each of the pieces in Journe’s Ruthenium collection have their brass movements fully coated in a light-absorbing ruthenium coating. Similarly, the white gold dial is specially coated with the same ruthenium, yet the remarkable sheen and lustre found in Journe’s earliest solid gold dials is preserved. Such Journe dials often display beautiful variations of patina, and in this case, the tarnish-free darkness of ruthenium further enhances the glimmer of the underlying gold dial. The circular Côtes de Genève finishing seen on later iterations of brass movements is visible through the ruthenium coating. Produced from 2002 until 2006, the Octa Chronographe was the world’s premier self-winding fly-back chronometer chronograph, boasting an oversized date window. The Octa caliber 1300 is a mere 5.7mm thick, allowing it to fit into the existing Octa case. To achieve this, the typical column wheel was replaced by a cam wheel. Numbered 16 of a limited edition of 99, the present Octa Chronographe from the Ruthenium Collection, the watch was first sold in 2003 and acquired by the current owner from the F. P. Journe Patrimoine Service later in 2019. With a production of no more than 45 pieces made per year and a complete service from the manufacture in 2019, the present Octa Chronographe is delivered with its certificate and accessories.

First introduced to the market in 2004, the De Bethune DB15 Perpetual Calendar debuted the brand’s spherical moon phase. Reimagined and broke the boundaries of the interpretation of a moon phase, the three dimensional marvel emerged from a sub-dial at 12 o’clock and rotates on its own axis. The layout of the stepped dial is clean and legible with a classic touch of Roman numerals. According to research, three metals were available for the model: white gold, platinum and pink gold like the present example. To our knowledge only 44 pieces of the DB15RT were made since 2004. Belonging to one of the early creations from De Bethune recongized by the cone-shaped lugs, the timepiece is sized at 43.4mm diameter. The perpetual calendar mechanism powered by the caliber DB2004 was also the first to be produced entirely at the manufacture and is equipped with the world-first function of rapid date adjustment by and intermediate position of the winding crown. The leap year indication is indicated by the aperture below the spherical moon phase amongst the starry sky. Turning the watch over, the movement immediately speaks De Bethune. A signature delta-shaped bridge decorated with Côtes de Genève and proudly stamped with the brand’s logomark. Featuring a titanium balance with platinum weights, the movement is also equipped with a 5 days power reserve, triple pare-chute shock absorbing system and balance-spring with flat terminal curve. Preserved in an attractive condition, the case has furthermore developed charming patina that can only be achieved through time. Numbered 21, this DB15RT in pink gold is also accompanied by its original certificate and accessories.

As Abraham-Louis Breguet was the inventor of the tourbillon, the design and creation of tourbillon wristwatches was particularly important to Roth. One of the first models that he developed for his eponymous brand was the double dial reference C187 in 1988. The present reference 197.X.40 is a stunning celebration and continuation of his tourbillon wristwatches introduced roughly in the late 1990s to 2000s when Roth’s company was revived by the Singapore-based retailer The Hour Glass. Encased in Roth’s signature pink gold double-ellipse case, this delightful timepiece comes with a double dial and a hinged case back. On the front dial, the upper portion is reserved for a superbly elegant hour and minutes dial decorated by a silver brushed chapter ring with Roman numerals outlined with sauté piqué pattern, reminiscent of the iconic Breguet dial design. Set against a sea of sand white Clou de Paris guilloché pattern, the dial is further accentuated by the blued hands. On the lower part of the dial, silver Côtes de Genève complements an aperture which shows the tourbillon in action, which will surely make your heart skip a beat when you see it in person. As you open the hinged case, the watch reveals its secret to you, a delicate date indicator with Vieux Panier guilloché, and an eight-day power reserve aperture set on a beautiful cream Clou de Paris dial. Preserved in excellent condition and numbered 024, this present watch is a reverie of refined elegance that you could only wish for.

The Tortue Monopoussoir marked the third watch of Cartier’s creation, representing a development in the brand moving toward an elegant and rounded design modelled after the shape of a tortoise, with its name ‘Tortue’ fitting accordingly. Its first version in 1912 was alike to its two predecessors in that it read time only, but in 1928 the monopoussoir chronograph was introduced and re-released in 1999. This Cartier Tortue Monopoussoir is fitted with a classic guilloché dial including a Cartier Paris signature at 12 o’clock, black roman numerals, and blued steel hands, warmed by a 34x44mm 18k yellow gold case. The chronograph is operated solely by a single pusher on its crown that is all-encompassing in the start, stop, and reset functions. The caseback has been engraved with No. 0100. This watch has been made available using three different metals including this yellow gold version, as well as white gold (Lot 966 in this auction) and pink gold. It is part of the Collection Privée Cartier Paris (CPCP), which was launched in 1998 to commemorate historical designs, cherishing its past whilst adapting to the modern day. Though a chronograph is traditionally used for sports timing, its slim case and single pusher radiates a classic Cartier elegance which makes it an ideal piece for a black-tie event. It is in excellent overall condition and comes with its original CPCP presentation box and certificate. This highly rare and truly collectible timepiece is part one of the most illustrious collections that honours the legacy of the Cartier brand, tying together the past and present.

Making its important debut in 1936, the Cartier Asymétrique was born amidst some of the most exciting times of watchmaking, especially for Cartier. During the innovative period where the firm was experimenting with creative case designs, the Asymétrique is definitely one that stood out amongst them all. Featuring a distorted rectangular-shaped case, more specifically parallelogram-shaped, the dial design is something unique to the specific model where the layout is also asymmetric. In 1996, before the Collection Privée Cartier Paris (CPCP) was established, a limited run of 300 pieces in yellow gold and 100 in platinum was released with the same alternating Arabic numerals and baton indexes as the original 1936 model. In 2006, under the CPCP collection, an updated Asymétrique was released with 150 pieces in yellow gold, featuring updated lugs and a guilloche dial with applied black Roman numerals. Elegant, rare and highly desirable, the present example was released in April 2020 during the online-only format of Watches & Wonders. Receiving much fanfare, the Asymétrique was offered in platinum, pink gold, and yellow gold with only 100 examples to be produced in each metal. Engraved with a lucky number 88, the present pink gold example features a striking, radially-brushed anthracite grey dial with applied Arabic numerals and signature cabochon sapphire crown. Preserved in excellent condition with the rising demands on fancy shaped Cartier timepieces, the Tank Asymétrique is certainly a must have from the collection.

In 1921, Cartier launched the Grand Tank Cintrée with an aesthetically pleasing long, slender, and gracefully arching case. At the time, the model was the largest and boldest adaptation of the famous Tank wristwatch, with a modern, fresh reinterpretation of its rectangular shape and case dimensions. Today, the Tank Cintrée is incredibly popular, having inspired modern successors in the now-discontinued “Collection Privée, Cartier Paris” series, and present-day variants. The present Tank Cintrée from 2020 is a wonderful contemporary interpretation of the famed and iconic model. While most Cartier timepieces are fitted with the classic white dials with Roman numerals, the present Tank Cintrée certainly stands out of the crowd. Contrasting beautifully with the warmth of the pink gold case, the dial is in sunburst charcoal and features stick and Arabic markers, it is a fully modern yet classic design. Offered with its original accessories, and highly soughtafter since its release at SIHH 2018, the present Tank Cintrée is an elegant companion for the refined yet relaxed collector.

The Patek Philippe ref. 1518 holds an influential place in watchmaking history. Its classic subdial layout and moonphase design established an aesthetic that continues to be seen in later perpetual calendar chronograph models like the references 2499 (1951-1987), 3970 (1987-2004), 5970 (2004-2011), and 5270. The present ref. 5971P represents the pinnacle of the 5970 line. Launched in 2007 as one of the last Lemania-based movements, the ref. 5971 made its final catalog appearance in 2011. With powerful proportions and wrist presence, this discontinued rarity has become increasingly popular among collectors in recent years. True to Patek Philippe’s standards of intricate detail, the bezel is not the only feature graced with hand-selected diamonds. The ebony black lacquered dial is surrounded by a baguette diamond halo and enhanced with diamond hour markers, totaling 42 diamonds at 4.37 carats. The timepiece is complete with a gem-set buckle. Fresh-to-market, this is the 47th known example of ref. 5971P to have surfaced on the market and is offered in excellent overall condition with its original accessories. This beautiful diamond-set platinum perpetual calendar chronograph exemplifies the pinnacle of watchmaking and haute joaillerie.

Launched in 1999, collectors have widely regarded A.Lange & Söhne Datograph as one of the finest modern chronograph wristwatches produced by any firm. Since its re-establishment of manufacture, A. Lange & Söhne has been creating some of the most impressive timepieces executed to the highest quality. It features an in-house manual movement and is expertly finished throughout with Glashütte stripes and a signature hand-engraved balance cock. The oversized date window display particular to A. Lange & Söhne wristwatches inspired by the Dresden Semper Opera clock sits perfectly legible on the 12 O’clock position. The first generation of the Datograph features a 39mm diameter case without the power reserve indication giving the dial a clean and minimalist appeal. Furthermore, the platinum case and black dial is the original Datograph that captured the admiration of so many collectors and connoisseurs when it first appeared at Baselworld in 1999. In 2012, the firm upgraded the Datograph featuring a more significant 41mm diameter case and implemented an up/down power reserve indication at 6 o’clock, featuring baton indexes instead of Roman numerals. The present example A. Lange & Söhne Datograph in platinum from circa 2005 belongs to the model’s first generation that can be identified by the ‘METER’ tachymeter scale that was replaced later in A. Lange & Söhne production around 2005 with ‘METERS’ tachymeter scale. A small but essential detail that collectors look for in collecting early versions of Datograph. Complete with its original guarantee and presentation box, this example possible from the early transitional batch has also developed an attractive warm patina on the registers which only appears on early production batches before the manufacture upgraded with anti-reflective sapphire crystal. Undoubtedly one of the best chronograph movement that garnered interest from collectors all over the world, this early Datograph is one of the most collectible A.Lange & Söhne out there.

Released in 2015, the 1815 Anniversary F.A. Lange limited edition wristwatch commemorates the 200th anniversary of the firm’s founder, Ferdinand Adolph Lange, born in Dresden on 18 February 1815. The brand’s 1815 collection was launched in 1999 as a tribute to their founder honoring his exacting standards and precision quality movements, which today resemble pocket watches made during Ferdinand’s time. They feature three-quarter plates, blued screws, hand-engraved balance cocks, and gold chatons. The 1815 collection is known for precision timepieces in a wide variety of models including the Grande Complication masterpiece, annual calendars and chronographs, perpetual calendars with split-seconds, and time only wristwatches like the present lot. Each model is a tribute to the horological traditions Ferdinand Adolph Lange sought to achieve with one common design attribute found on each model: the railwaytrack minute scale. Like the present example, the reference 236.049 is a quintessential timepiece that defines the classic iconic wristwatches from this famed brand. This limited edition 1815 Anniversary F. A. Lange wristwatch is numbered 51 of 200 and offered in excellent condition complete with box and papers. With a striking masculine appeal, the platinum case is elegantly offset by its highly anticipated black dial, surrounded by a railway minute track and powered by the caliber L051.1 with a hand engraved balance cock. The present model is a wonderful addition to any collection, both for its rarity and technical excellence.

The watch market in the late 1920s to 1930s was flooded with a range of shaped watches as influenced by the Art Deco movement. A. Lange & Söhne was without exception a contender and has since established a tradition of rectangular wristwatches in their brand history. The heritage was revoked with the introduction of the Arkade collection in 1994, and then followed by the launch of the Cabaret in 1997 at Basel, which was influenced by Walter Lange’s partnership with Günter Blümlein who had also managed Jaeger-LeCoultre and was an industry leader that liked to remind us of the rectangular case as an incredible feat in watchmaking. Introduced in 2008, the Cabaret Tourbillon is equally revolutionary in being the first wristwatch with a patented stop-seconds mechanism which stops the balance-wheel in the carriage when the crown is pulled out. This means that time-setting can be performed with much greater accuracy. It was discontinued after 5 years in production, and it is estimated that no more than approximately 250 pieces were ever produced. They were only available in platinum or pink gold cases. The present watch is an early example that comes with a platinum three-body case, further refined by the stepped bezel and protruding lugs. The quiet grey dial features a balanced Art Deco style design and is embellished by the 4 o’clock power reserve indicator and 8 o’clock small seconds counter with delicate azurage. Through the sapphire case back, the wearer can admire in close the Maillechort plates and bridges decorated by the signature ribbing pattern, coupled with refined chamfering which polishes all the edges to the highest degree of fineness. The best part of it all is the unique hand-engraved bridges for the transmission wheel and the tourbillon carriage covered by the Lange signature floral pattern. A fusion of artisanship and technological prowess, this minimalistic tourbillon wristwatch is truly an epitome of elegance, and is the perfect timepiece for any watch aficionados who are searching for watchmaking excellence from the Glashütte tradition.

The extraordinary reference 2526 is the first ever automatic wristwatch introduced by Patek Philippe in 1953. As stated in the Patek Philippe period brochure, the reference 2526 is “treasured for its luxurious elegance, the beauty of its lines and its enduring accuracy”, and after seven decades, it has continued to be heralded as one of the most impressive and historically important time-only wristwatches ever produced by Patek Philippe. The present reference 2526 is an exceptionally rare early example that comes with a black dial. The present watch is one of 18 known yellow gold examples with a black dial on the market. Its dazzling black grand feu enamel dial signifies a first series dial. Two subtle indentations are found around each hour marker since the gold applied indexes are set onto the enamel dial through two holes with two cylindrical pins. This is also evidenced by the smaller 6 o’clock index touching the subsidiary seconds at 6 o’clock found in later first series examples. The Patek Philippe signature applied in gold dust is exceptionally well-preserved on the dial, with the accent on ‘Genève’ remaining crisp. In perfect harmony with the exquisite gold dauphine hands and applied gold singlepointed indexes, the gold powder pearls are tastefully transfer-printed on the edge of the glossy black enamel dial. The crown of the watch also features the beautiful “Double P” logo. Every minute hand-finished details on the present timepiece are sublime, and no words can express the sense of wonderment it kindles in you when it is observed in close. The present watch further boasts a highly desirable and rare Gay Frères guilloché bracelet stamped GF and dated the fourth quarter of 1953, with the exquisite PP logo on the clasp that was later replaced by the Calatrava cross after 1958. Sold originally in 1955 with a leather strap, this timepiece is imbued with a delightful charm pairing with this stunning bracelet from the same period.

In 1945, Movado pioneered the cal. 475, distinct for its two-part construction: a base movement crowned by an additional calendar module. Though myriad dial and case options existed, most of these “Calendograph” calendar wristwatches left the workshops bearing gray dials with European day and month displays. The present subtle pink gold example, however, diverges from its kin with a captivating black gloss dial lavishly decorated with elongated pink gold Arabic indices. Yet the true distinction lies in the Chinese day and month discs, likely destined for the Chinese market. Exceptionally well-preserved for its age, this Movado “Calendograph” is a rare gem ready to grace the collection of a discerning connoisseur.

The Patek Philippe ref. 3940 was first released in 1985 as a 25-piece limited edition to commemorate the 225th Anniversary of Beyer Chronometrie, an esteemed Zurich-based retailer and long-time friend of the firm. Realised in different variants ranging from yellow, pink and white gold to platinum, this reference was predominantly encased in yellow gold and had enjoyed a long and triumphant production run which only ceased in 2007. The present ref. 3940 from 1985 bears a movement numbered 770’034 that belongs to the first series and is a part of a small production of no more than 1300 pieces. As one of the earliest examples of its kind, it boasts a distinctive dial, featuring flat, sunken sub-registers with 24-hour and leap-year indicators without the crosshair divide, which are presented on later examples. Another interesting observation on the present lot is the two short blue hands for the 24hrs and leap year indicators, which usually are observed and found at the first twenty-five Beyer pieces. These small details further ascertain how early and rare this ref. 3940 1st series is. Delivered with the Patek Philippe Certificate of Origin, the present specimen is preserved in an attractive overall condition. With subsidiary dials that have developed a light patina, its vintage charm is further elevated and will certainly please any collector of iconic wristwatches.

With the introduction of the Quantieme Perpetuel Automatique in 1978, the series features the debut of the world’s thinnest self-winding perpetual calendar for the first time. Mechanically impressive, the possibilities were endless when it came to design, materials and craftsmanship, the Le Brassus-based manufacture certainly did not shy when it came to experimentation, offering collectors with a wide array of choices to cater towards the vibrant trend of the era. Amidst the heights of the quartz crisis, the creation of the cal. 2120/2800 was quite frantically unheard of during a time when most were shifting their resources into quartz technology. The Quantieme Perpetuel Automatique ref. 25549 (also known as 5549) was in production from 1977 until 1991 with an average of 12 pieces made per year. According to Audemars Piguet, approximately 156 yellow gold and 19 white gold examples left their workbenches within that period of time. While scarce amount of the reference are out there in the wild, only two examples in platinum including the present example with bracelet are known, making the present timepiece one of the rarest variant amongst all. Cased within the double stepped bezel, the reference is fitted with a simplistic white dial that displays its wealth of information with incredible legibility. Clean and understated with the tone of platinum, the integrated platinum mesh bracelet adds an extra flair to the timepiece. Preserved in excellent condition and accompanied with its Audemars Piguet Extract from the Archives confirming the register date from 1987, the timepiece was further sold in Germany at the time. With the rising interest in neo-vintage timepiece by Audemars Piguet in recent years, this numbered 35 platinum Quantieme Perpetuel Automatique ref. 25549 will surely garner the attention of aficionados.

PATEK PHILIPPE — A superbly attractive, highly important and possibly unique platinum minute repeating perpetual calendar wristwatch with moon phases, leap year indication, 24-hour indication, applied Breguet numerals, additional solid caseback and Certificate of Origin
Property from an Important Collector 重要私人收藏
11 hour strikes, three quarter strikes and 14 minute strikes, a constant tempo as each chime rings through the ears of generations. From father and his father before him, this has been the personal task for the Stern family for decades to deliver the purest of chimes toward its long history of watchmaking. A legacy that took place over 180 years ago with the first repeating pocket watches by Patek Philippe began as a necessity, a way to tell time in the dark. Today, minute repeating timepieces are regarded as a horological pinnacle amongst watchmaking and equally important to the circle of astute collectors. An incredible challenge to showcase the mastery of the watchmaker not only by how refined the finishing is, or how timeless the design can be. All is defined by solely the sound that rings to your ear, and none does it better than Patek Philippe. Marking a significant 150th anniversary of the maison, Patek Philippe celebrated the milestone in 1989 with the release of a limited collection. Among them all, the crown jewel of the collection apart from the cal. 89 pocket watch was the collector’s favourite and at the time the most complicated wristwatch by the firm, the coveted ref. 3974 self-winding minute repeating perpetual calendar wristwatch. Produced from 1989 to 2002, it is believed that approximately 120 examples of the reference were produced across all metals including yellow gold, pink gold, white gold and platinum. While most examples were cased in yellow gold, not more than 20 examples in pink gold and a dozen in white gold and platinum were produced. Extremely impressive, elegant with utterly attractive looks, the reference featured a classic style three-piece 36mm diameter case with a sapphire caseback. While it is generally known that early examples of the case were made by the living legend Jean-Pierre Hagmann with his hallmarks stamped beneath the bottom right lug, later examples featured cases made by Atelier Reunis. Sold by PHILLIPS In 2020, a late production ref. 3974P surfaced in the market bearing a late case number 4’129’601; marking not only the very end of the production of the reference, but also the last example to be cased by Jean-Pierre Hagmann. In fact, according to our understanding, that was the last ref. 3974 example made in any case material. It was delivered to a VIP customer in January 2004, 3 years after the production of the last movements for the reference (2001, the year of production of this movement).

The Possibly Unique Ref. 3974P According to our research, only 8 examples of the ref. 3974 in platinum have ever been offered at auction. Only a mere of 2 examples of a Patek Philippe ref. 3974P has the luxury of being fitted with a Breguet numerals dial. Fresh-to-the-market, PHILLIPS is honoured to present an addition to the family. Totalling the number to be the 9th example in platinum offered to the public, and more importantly, a possibly unique example. From the 8 examples previously known to the market, one can see the rarity of a ref. 3974 cased in platinum. Platinum is a known to dampen the sound of chimes in a repeating watch, however thanks to Patek Philippe’s technical expertise and savoir faire, the ref. 3974P balances volume, rhythm, harmony, and pitch in perfection. Where any platinum variant of the model can be considered an absolute grail, the bar can be set even higher with the dial that sits atop. Known to be fitted with a opaline white dial with baton indexes as their regular platinum production, the minute collectors hear “Breguet numerals”, they know they are in for a treat. Evident with staggering results such as an the mentioned example offered by Phillips in Geneva Auction XII in 2020. The ref. 3974P fitted with a special request black Breguet dial bearing a case no. 4’129’601 and movement no. 1’906’113 was sold for 1,421,500 CHF.

Extremely important and highly attractive, the present ref. 3974P is the only example known born with an opaline white Breguet numerals dial. Not only that, but this very example bears a consecutive serial of 4’129’600, making this the 2nd last 3974P to be made and delivered. Confirmed from the Patek Philippe Extract from the Archives with its dial configuration, it belongs to the very end of the production of the model, this example was manufactured in 2001 and was sold during September of that year. An auditory experience that is physical and emotional as one gently push home and release the repeater slide, the watch is brought to life. Strong, clear acoustic as each gong strikes, neither too weak or too strong, this 3974P promises only constant and harmonic resonance. Thanks to the impeccable Jean-Pierre Hagmann who created this beautiful case for the watch, his JHP stamp remains crisply stamped behind the strong downturned lugs. The JHP stamp is also present to the inside of the solid caseback, highlighting the pride this legendary craftsman took in his job. Furthermore, the preservation of this timepiece is a charmer. Stunningly preserved with strong proportions and defined stepped lugs, one can sense the care and love from its previous collector. A possibly unique ref. 3974P haloed by Jean Pierre Hagmann and the personal audition by Mr. Stern, the original Certificate of Origin and additional solid caseback keeps this incredible timpiece company. It is needless to say that this is one of the illustrious timepiece that will take a very important place in Patek Philippe’s history.

In a fast-paced world dominated by robust sports models, Vacheron Constantin released an eclectic limited series collection in the 90s, boasting intricate enamel dials inviting collectors to take a step back and admire this Métiers d’Art. Referencing the life-like drawings by naturalist Jean-Jacques Audubon, the firm used a mixture of cloisonée enamelling and miniature painting techniques to bring his vision of the “Bird of America” to life. Introduced in 1996, this was a highly exclusive release of wristwatches depicting ten different species of birds, each made into a limited series of 10 pieces. The present reference 43060/1 - depicting two bird species rather than one - ranks among the rarest variants, featuring Audubon’s YellowBilled Magpie conversing with two Clark’s Crows. The impeccable cloisonée enamel dial by acclaimed enamellist Muriel Sechaud exudes vibrancy and motion, transporting the viewer into a natural tableau. With this elegant “Birds of America” series, Vacheron Constantin demonstrated how haute horlogerie can intersect with the artisanal beauty of natural history illustration. They resurrected a bygone era when the ornithological cabinet d’amateur held pride of place in European culture, embodied inobjets d’art that fused delight in avian forms with mechanical wonder. In excellent overall condition, this timepiece invites its beholder to marvel at one of the most exquisite realizations of the meeting between horology and natural history, transporting the wearer into a miniature pastoral idyll of colour and motion with each turn of the wrist.

The Patek Philippe ref. 5070 was first introduced at the 1998 Baselworld. Sending shockwaves across the board, this large 42mm wristwatch marked a momentous milestone for the firm as the first modern chronograph-only wristwatch since the release of ref. 1463. A worthy and highly anticipated successor to this classic chronograph, the ref. 5070 is fitted in a water-resistant case with a screw-down case back. The reference 5070 enjoys a unique spot in Patek Philippe’s history as one of the largest watches it had produced. A delight to admire through the sapphire case back, it is the last chronograph equipped with the legendary Lemania 2310-based ébauche before Patek Philippe developed their in-house calibre. Despite its big case size, the relatively slim profile and downturned lugs lends the watch a sophisticated and comfortable presence on the wrist. Introduced in a total of four different case materials, including yellow gold, pink gold, white gold and platinum, the pink gold variant was first introduced in 2003 and was discontinued in 2007 with approximately 1,000 examples produced in the respective metal. A stunning example, the present Patek Philippe ref. 5070R-001 is not only accompanied by its original accessories, it is also preserved in perfection by the owner, single-sealed and never been worn, this ref. 5070R will be a fantastic addition to any collection.

A storied legacy, reimagined. Patek Philippe’s perpetual calendar holds court as the manufacture’s most revered complication since the early 20th century. The early references 1526 and 2497 stand as horological icons, pairing a complex calendar mechanism with an understated elegance befitting Patek Philippe’s heritage. In 1961, the ref. 3448 broke new ground as the brand’s inaugural selfwinding perpetual calendar, paving the way for a series of automatic calendars encased in artfully shaped cases. Then came ref. 5059 in 1999, the first Patek perpetual calendar housed in an officer’s case, reinventing vintage design codes for a new millennium. Its successor, ref. 5159, arrived in 2007 with a subtle 2mm increase in case size and featured an intricate guilloché-engraved dial. Extended Roman numerals and a prominent retrograde date pay homage to early 20th century watchmaking, yet inside ticks a state-of-the-art selfwinding movement. The present ref. 5159 in yellow gold from circa 2020 is consigned by its original owner with its original accessories. Preserved in barely worn condition, this stunning perpetual calendar represents a chance to own Patek Philippe’s heritage and innovation in equal measure - a contemporary classic honoring the past while pioneering horology’s future.

Released in 2014, the Patek Philippe World Time ref. 5131R-001 features the firm’s highly appreciated cloisonné enamel dial depicting continents of the world map. First innovated by Louis Cottier in the early 1930s, the world’s first world time watch featured an hour and minute hand linked to a 24-hour ring and bordered by an additional city ring featuring cities encompassing its 24 various time zones depicted all on a single dial. A genius design and mechanism, today, the basic concept of the world time wristwatch remains unchanged. Patek Philippe has created some of the most important world time timepieces throughout its years, with its first world time wristwatch reference via the coveted ref. 1415 released in the 1940s and the iconic and much appreciated ref. 2523 “Double Crown”. Fast forward to the 21st century, the first contemporary world time reference was launched in 2000 via ref. 5110 to commemorate the new millennium. Six years later, the ref. 5130 was introduced featuring essentially the same caliber though with a larger case size at 39.5mm diameter. The ref. 5131 was launched in four metals including yellow gold, white gold, pink gold and platinum.
The present example Patek Philippe World Time ref. 5131R-001 features a beautiful cloisonné enamel dial depicting the continents of Asia, Americas and Oceana. Furthermore, the dial still features “Hong Kong” as one of the cities on the city ring, latter models features “Beijing” instead. Not only is this example complete with its full set of accessories, it remains in its single-sealed condition like the day it was born from the manufacture. Absolutely pristine and untouched, this ref. 5131R-001 is ready to touch the wrist of a connoisseur for the first time.

After a successful run of reference 5970, Patek Philippe replaced the 5970 series in 2011 with Ref. 5270 which is fitted with their first in-house perpetual calendar calibre CH29-535 PS Q that is stamped with the new Patek Philippe hallmark. Three years later, the manufacturer revealed 5271 in Baselworld in 2014 with various gem set variants including emerald, ruby, sapphire and diamonds. Case in platinum along with the glittery décor make this reference an impressive timepiece without being too coarse but a stylish and serious timepiece inside and out. The present lot ref. 5271/13P-001 is one of the rarest variations, the bezel and lugs are set with 80 brilliant baguette-cut emeralds of approximately 3.57 carats. Patek Philippe certainly spares no expense, the clasp is also set with baguette emeralds to match the case and the final touch, adding a baguette-cut emerald index at 12 O’clock against the glossy black dial that further enhances the charms. The use of emeralds has a long, impressive history since ancient times, and it continues to be relevant today. This special timepiece is produced in a small series and only offered to the esteemed VIP of Patek Philippe clients. The present lot is ‘Fresh to the market’ and possibly the 3rd emerald-set variant of ref.5271/P to appear in public auction to date.

In the 1980s, Rolex began to dress-up their sports watches with precious gemstones for its more adventurous clientele. Among these first early gem-set sports watches are the manually-wound Daytona references 6269 and 6270 (the former with brilliant-cut diamonds at the bezel and the latter with baguette-cut diamonds). Sparking a new trend for gem-set timepieces, Rolex continued to bedazzle their prestigious lines of watches with various combinations of gemstones, cuts, settings and designs over the years. Examples with large baguette-cut bezels, pavé diamond dials, emeralds, rubies or coloured sapphires to name a few combinations have been produced, always in very small quantities and with extreme attention to quality and execution. Adorned with 36 orange sapphires on the bezel, the present example features a suave black dial with sapphire-set indexes in the same pumpkin hue, resulting in a uber cool configuration adored by the likes of Roger Federer. With tremendous efforts to source the world’s highest quality of gems, each stone is cut specifically to be fitted on the bezel, with each gemstone examined thoroughly for its cut, clarity and most importantly, colour. Hence, with its tedious process resulting in an extremely low production of all Rolex gem-set pieces, with the Rainbow being one of the toughest to execute.
Today, the Daytona Rainbow family has been released in yellow gold, white gold and pink gold. Marking the 60th anniversary of the Daytona this year in 2023, rare and special Daytona models including the present example are highly demanded in the market. A perfect way to celebrate the important anniversary of one of the most beloved wristwatches of all time, Phillips is delighted to auction the 116588SACO for first time.

ROLEX — An extremely rare and important stainless steel dual-time wristwatch with center seconds, date, bracelet, guarantee and presentation box, engraved “TO ERIC SO MANY THANKS PAUL 2009” gifted to Eric Clapton from Paul Stewart
“I cannot think of a more wonderful gift to receive for my Birthday. I did not know that my son Paul could sing; write music, or lyrics for such music. What a surprise and delight.” he said. A special present gifted to a father for his 70th birthday titled “Fly Free” written by his son, Paul. With lyrics “If you fly with crows, you’ll get shot at…”, it was an anecdote shared from father to son, a reminder to spend time wisely with the right crowd in order to thrive free like an eagle. This was the wisdom that British Formula 1 legend, Jackie Stewart shared with his son, Paul Stewart. Nicknamed the “Flying Scot”, Sir Jackie Stewart needs no introduction, a three-time world champion British Formular One legend that hold his title since 1973 until Lewis Hamilton broke his record in 2015. His son, Paul Evan Stewart also followed the footstep of his father and formed Stewart Grand Prix, a team which competed in Formular One from 1997-1999. For the watch community, Jackie Stewart is also wellknown for his love of the crowned brand that is strongly associated with motor racing, Rolex. For a man where a split second can make all the difference in defining a win or a loss, it is no wonder his confidence was placed in the Rolex brand throughout his career as F1 racing driver. Now, how might the present Rolex GMT-Master II ref. 116710LN tie into this. A watch that seems ordinary at face value, the intriguing origin lies on the back of the timepiece. Engraved on its caseback “TO ERIC SO MANY THANKS PAUL 2009”, the story brings us even further to its previous owner, yet another legend amongst rock & roll and to the watch collecting community, Mr. Eric Clapton. As an acquaintance of the Stewart family, Paul invited Eric Clapton to take lead of the solo riff on the track that Paul wrote for this very special birthday present to his father. The song was recorded at The British Grove Studios in the Chiswhik neighbourhood, London where recordings from legends such as U2, The Rolling Stones, Sting, and Eric Clapton took place.

Published in Hodinkee’s My Watch Story featuring Matt Prior, British musician who also took part in the recording for “Fly Free” with his anecdote. Mr. Prior reveals that Paul Stewart also gifted him the same GMT-Master II, and on the back with the same engraving format “TO “ONLY MATT” SO MANY THANKS PAUL 2009”. A watch with incredible meaning, importance and provenance, the GMT-Master II marks a suitable choice for a man of intercontinental travel. Travelling and photographed numerous times on the wrist of Eric Clapton mingling on F1 racetracks, or while he was on tour rocking out “I shot the Sheriff” or “Wonderful Tonight”, this is easily one of the rarest find for collectors. A discontinued reference with such a close tie and moment of history and exceptional provenance, it is a remarkably unique opportunity for any watch collector that appreciates motorsport or a fan of classic English rock. Ready for any journey, whether it be domestic or foreign, this watch is a perfect match for a frequent traveler who enjoys a rugged aesthetic and beauty of the green hand GMT.

The Longines Lindbergh Hour Angle is one of the most historically important pilot’s watch designed to aid aerial navigation in the 1930s. It was designed by the American aviator Charles Lindbergh famous for completing a solo non-stop transatlantic flight from New York city to Paris in May 1927. Charles Lindbergh then teamed up with Longines and the legendary Renaissance man Philip Van Horn Weems, who devised the Weems System of Navigation, to design the Lindbergh model, which allows the pilot to determine his position in flight by applying the principles of celestial navigation, that means to observe the location of celestial bodies like the sun or moon to establish a navigator’s location on Earth. The earliest examples of the Lindbergh Hour Angle were produced and delivered during the Great Depression in approximately 1929. Produced in small quantities, they are rare to find in today’s market. The present watch comes with the calibre 18.69N, first created in the late 1900s for pocket watches. The present watch is a beautiful example produced in silver (examples are also found in stainless steel) and stamped with the Swiss Canard (‘Duck’ in French) Hallmark, which according to the 1933 Federal Act, confirms a standard of fineness at 925 (used until 1995 when it was replaced by the Swiss National Assay Office hallmark with the St. Bernard dog’s head). The watch case is augmented by a fine layer of patina which magnifies the watch’s aging glamour. In complement to this, all the handmade details are astonishing, and one cannot help being drawn to the oversized onion crown, curved hinged back, and exquisite enamel numbering in blue, green and black on the enamel dial, rotating bezel, and central revolving disc. Despite its age, the present watch is preserved in exceptional condition, and is further accompanied by two Longines Extract of the Archives.

The venerable Minerva name, registered in 1887 by the watchmaking company Robert Frères Villeret (founded in 1858 as H. & C. Robert), once adorned the finest timepieces of their diverse portfolio. Although owning multiple marques—Tropic, Ariana, Mercure and more—Robert Frères reserved Minerva for their highest echelon of production. Come 1908, Minerva commenced crafting exquisite chronographs capable of precision to the hundredth of a second. By the 1920s, Minerva chronographs were industry leaders, prompting the company’s 1929 rechristening as “Minerva SA, Villeret.” Throughout the 20th century, Minerva persevered through trials and tribulations, its peerless watchmaking prowess weathering even the Quartz Crisis storm. Richemont Group acquired the manufacture in 2006, thereafter channeling Minerva’s expertise into Montblanc timepieces. This remarkable mid-century Minerva exemplifies the manufacture’s commanding capabilities. With an imposing 46mm case, the oversized monopusher chronograph clearly targeted technical applications like piloting. It bears the vaunted 19/9CH caliber, a movement introduced for pocket watches in 1909 and later wristwatches, with the 2 o’clock pusher being the inaugural configuration before later integration into the crown.
The original black dial which has aged beautifully into a tropical patina with luminous numerals caters directly to aviation needs—contrasting for daytime legibility, illuminating for nighttime—and remains in an attractive overall condition. The dial is preserved in its original condition, with radium lumes still reactive, resulting in its numeral indices displaying burnt marks over time. This archetypal pilot’s watch, proffering breathtaking aesthetics and presence, will enthrall collectors with its impressive dimensions and enduring Minerva significance.

Further delivered with Patek Philippe Extract from the Archives confirming the present timepiece’s date of manufacture in 1977 and its subsequent date of sale on 5th September 1978.
The production of the ref. 3700 was segmented into two main series with early examples (1976-1982) stamped with ref. 3700/1 whilst later examples from 1982-1990 are stamped with 3700/11. Born in 1977, the present specimen of the ref. 3700/1 with corresponding characteristics of early generation batches was produced a year after the debut of the model. The inner-caseback displays the matching serial and reference number, with the correct 3-digital serial number stamped underside of the hinged ears. But what elevates this specimen to another level is the mesmerizing tropicalization of the dial. Incredibly charismatic, the ripples of blue on the dial have naturally transformed into a sea of bronze patina entirely. Bearing a case number 536’227 and a movement number 1’305’380, the present example falls in the middle of two other tropical 3700/1 examples that Phillips have sold previously. With a recent record of achieving CHF 378,000 in Phillips Geneva Auction: XV, it is no secret that these rare 3700/1 are extremely sought-after by astute collectors when they grace the auction room. Phillips is proud to offer this incredibly attractive example of one of the most iconic and desired timepieces ever designed, furthermore the lot is accompanied by the Extract from the Archives confirming its production in 1977, the original cork presentation box and a pair of white gold Nautilus cufflinks that goes perfectly with this extraordinary piece.

Built for the racetracks, the Heuer Carrera traces back to its muse since 1963. From the Carrera Panamericana, a legendary car race through Mexico, Jack Heuer set out to create a professional chronograph that ticks all his boxes: clean, legible, practical, waterproof and modern. The answer was the Carrera ref. 2447. An incredible success and an important pillar in Heuer’s heritage, the Carrera has been offered in more than 110 varieties since its birth, and till this day, the model holds an important place in Tag Heuer’s line-up and aficionados heart. And of course, the vintage designs back in the old days are collectors’ favourites. In the early years, the Carrera was available with a silver dial or a black (noir, in French) dial; 2447S, for silver, and 2447N for noir. The present example fitted with an all black dial is the latter and belongs to second-execution variant from the series. In the same way that car manufacturers update a model without totally reworking the chassis, the Carrera was given a facelift partway through the run. The earliest Carreras from 1963, or first-executions, have characteristics like applied indexes, hands with luminous insert, and unsigned crowns; later examples of second-executions from 1970 onwards feature hands with black and luminous inserts, and additional strips of white on the applied indexes. Furthermore, the markers at 3, 6, 9 o’ clock have been replaced with luminous dots instead. The second-execution models are more uncommon compared to earlier examples and sought-after by collectors as a result. Presented in excellent overall condition retaining its original strong case proportion, the luminous material on the dial has furthermore aged into a beautiful yellow hue, heightening the vintage charm of this timepiece. A spirit of endurance and the 60th anniversary of the icon, this ref. 2447N is furthermore fitted with a Gay Frères bracelet that makes this even more desirable.

Born on the racetrack in 1963, the Carrera reference 2447 is one of Heuer’s most iconic designs and was Jack Heuer’s most passionate creation. Over the course of production, a variety of dials were available; panda, reverse panda, with or without tachymeter scale. The size of subdials and shape of hour markers also changed. While early dials can be categorized with the SWISS only insignia at 6 o’ clock, variants from 1965 onwards will bear a T SWISS indicating the use of tritium for the luminous materials. The Carrera ref 2447T (T for Tachymeter) was released during 1965, sporting a more vibrant touch apart from others, this variant features a two-toned silver dial, the tachymeter scale is printed with racing red that pops out beautifully. Furthermore, under the hood of this chronograph is the legendary manually-wound Valjoux 72. The present example is preserved in great condition and has nicely aged with an attractive patina on the luminous over the years. This year marks the 60th anniversary of the legendary Carrera, here’s the chance for petrolheads and sports-car enthusiasts to own a piece of history of motorsports.

What makes a watch legendary? Is it the history it made, its design's originality, or merely the person who appeals to many who choose the timepiece as their own? The Rolex Cosmograph “Paul Newman” fits into all the above. A combination of one of the world’s leading manufacture, a world-renowned racetrack, and one of Hollywood’s most prominent and finest actor Paul Newman, the Rolex Cosmograph fitted with an exotic Paul Newman dial has gone from relative obscurity in the 1960s and 1970s, to being the most sought after collectors’ choice amongst vintage chronographs till this day. A legacy for sixty years and counting, it is considered to many as grails that few will own, especially for the ones that retain its original flavour and good looks. This Rolex Cosmograph Paul Newman ref. 6265 with the desirable panda dial will undoubtedly satisfy a discerned collector. Reference 6265 was introduced to the market in approximately 1969 and ceased production in the late 1980s. The model features screwdown pushers and thus carries an "Oyster" designation on the dial. It is powered by calibre 727, a Rolex upgrade of Valjoux calibre 72 and the final evolution of this movement (following cal. 72A, 72B, 722, and 722-1). From the late 80s, with reference 16520, Rolex started to employ an El Primero-based Cal. 4030 movement in the Cosmograph. The present example bearing a 2’849’XXX case serial falls into the batch of circa 1971 and is all period-matching according to our research. Well-preserved with a stainless steel Oyster case, the timepiece features a stunning 'panda' Paul Newman dial with sharp serifs of the “Oyster Cosmograph” showing clearly under the view of the loupe and the lume plots remain intact on the dial have further aged with a desirable warm yellow hue, presenting a delicate balance of cream and black colour scheme of the dial that are further complimented with the period-matching screw-down pushers, bezel and bracelet. This present lot is a remarkable specimen that stood the test of time in both respect of historical importance and the state of preservation. Reference 6265, with a hall of fame status, will be a satisfying addition to a long-term collection.

Characterized by its triple complications - full calendar, chronograph, and moon phases the Tri-Compax reflects Universal’s increasing popularity among collectors and scholars who appreciate its bold proportions and reliable calibers. The beauty of the Tri-Compax lies in its dial design, both complex yet balanced. Powered by the cal. 281 movement, the watch is instantly recognizable by its sculpted lugs with strong definition, giving incredible wrist presence. Though initially created as a sports watch, many surviving examples today exhibit heavy polishing from wear. Yet this Tri-Compax remains very well preserved, with crisp case number and reference markings, encapsulating a remarkable testimony to the manufacture’s rich history. LOT OFFERED WITHOUT RESERVE

Announced in January 1969, Zenith housed the first incorporated automatic chronograph movement named El Primero. The high-beat caliber is notoriously running at 36’000 vph, ensuring increased timemeasuring accuracy and an unmatched ability to break seconds down. The first gold El Primero watches to see light were produced in small batches, making them difficult to find in today’s market. The present El Primero ref. G583 is one of them, produced with approximately 350 pieces only, the reference was available in a variety of dial configurations. Sporty and classy at the same time, the yellow gold model wears with extreme comfort thanks to its slim profile. For connoisseurs that have a soft spot for vintage chronographs, this present G583 will certainly catch your attention. Absolutely beautifully preserved timepiece, the case retains its factory finishing and bevels. Its lugs are sharp with fine satin-finishes that have developed a charming patina on its yellow gold surfaces where only possible by the passage of time. The silver shine on the dial contrasts harmoniously with the gold accents of the hour markers and hands, while its luminous material have all uniformly aged into an attractive warm yellow. Turning over the watch, its remarkable condition is confirmed by an instant gratification of its blue layered of protective ‘zapon’ perfectly protecting its case number and hallmarks. An exquisite timepiece from the 70s which retains its Zenith hang tag, this is a great chance to acquire a wonderful specimen from the era.

It was an auspicious day in 1962 when astronaut Walter “Wally” Schirra embarked on his pioneering space flight with the Omega Speedmaster adorning his wrist, an iconic first that catapulted the watch into the annals of history.

PATEK PHILIPPE — A possibly unique, very important and extremely attractive platinum perpetual calendar split-second chronograph wristwatch with phases of the moon, leap year indication, 24 hours indication, special black luminous monogrammed dial, additional solid caseback and Certificate of Origin
Introduced in 1996 and in production until around 2012, reference 5004 is considered by many collectors amongst the most iconic of modern Patek Philippe models. It was the company’s first serially produced split-second perpetual calendar chronograph wristwatch, and it was arguably an instant classic. It is notably Patek Philippe’s only split-second perpetual calendar chronograph wristwatch made in series to house a Lemania-based movement, which has increased the “old school” appeal and popularity of the reference. Most Patek Philippe fans are thrilled when they are accepted to join a waiting list for a complication of this importance. Only a very select few get access to a unique request dial. But to be granted one’s monogram presence on the dial, one’s importance to the collecting world must be genuinely paramount, the kind of collector comparable to – to name a few others who achieved such an honour – Henry Graves, Jr., James W. Packard or J.B. Champion.

The present example sets the collectability bar well beyond an already highly prized standard 5004, as it features an extremely special personalized dial. The overall design is the “alternative” style reserved by Patek Philippe to special request timepieces, characterized by the double railway scales, an outer one for the tachymeter and an inner one for the minute divisions. It is known to have been featured on a highly scarce number of special order specimens of reference 5004 and 3970. The Clapton 5004, to make an example, is one of the few pieces known with such a dial configuration and well defines the kind of collectors Patek Philippe granted such extremely exclusive pieces to. This specimen is, however, made even more unusual and collectable by two additional details: the dial and hands are luminous, an extremely rare and appreciated trait with a remarkable impact on legibility and aesthetics. Most importantly, the dial bears the Monogram ‘MOS’ at six o’clock. This watch thus classifies in the highly restricted ranks of Patek Philippe pieces with nominal dials, a privilege reserved for the likes of J. B Champion and Henry Graves Jr. Such watches are arguably to be considered a category of Patek Philippe pieces in their own right - similarly to the Graves watches, for example - thus ensuring unfathomable appeal for the collector of rare Patek Philippe wristwatches.

Introduced in Watches & Wonders Geneva 2022, the Antarctique Rattrapante Ice Blue, following “Sunrise” and “Silver Grey”, is the third model in the Antarctique Rattrapante collection. Ice blue refers to the hues of blue on the sapphire glass minutes ring and counters on the dial, which produces a pleasing glimmer as the blue sword hands treated with SuperLuminiva move around the hours and minutes. This delightful addition is what I think makes it the best watch in the Rattrapante collection thus far. While the watch still has the signature Czapek sub-dials at 4.30 and 7.30 o’clock, it has also added a delicious split-second hand in red, enhancing the chronograph wristwatch with zest and character. Fated to being quickly sold out like its predecessors, the Antarctique Rattrapante Ice Blue is produced in a limited run of only 99 pieces, all of which were immediately sold out when the watch was released, rendering it virtually impossible to buy. The present watch is kept in like-new condition and complete with full set of accessories. The opportunity to own this exceptional timepiece should not be missed.

In celebration of their 15th birthday, Habring² has introduced the present masterfully executed and highly complicated perpetual calendar chronograph wristwatch. Founded by Austrian watchmakers Maria and Richard Habring in 2004, the family-run workshop based in Völkermarkt is heralded for its design and technical excellence in creating extraordinary yet affordable timepieces. Richard Habring is a renowned watchmaker who is known to have developed the split seconds chronograph movement during his time at IWC. With the patents for the mechanism expired, Habring² has ventured to improve it. The present watch features the in-house movement calibre A11P with Dubios-Depraz 51100 perpetual calendar module, which boasts a power reserve of 45-hours and 28,800 half oscillations per hour. The details of the movement are delightfully observable through the transparent case back, with the Habring² signature two cam systems in blued steel along with the beautifully finished bridges with perlage. The mouthwatering salmon dial of the present watch is an equally attractive feat. Accentuated by the silver sub dials, numerals, blued hands and the moon phases indicator at the 12 o’clock, the salmon dial is full of charm and a quirky reminder of the roaring 20s. As the Habring²’s motto goes, “everyone deserves their own very special and unique timekeeper”. Preserved in very attractive condition and accompanied with two Habring² straps and presentation box, this special timepiece should not be missed by any serious watch collector.

Reinterpreting the chronograph, F.P. Journe released the Centigraphe Souverain in 2007 and immediately became the talk of the town. Technically brilliant and innovatively sound, the introduction of the Centigraphe further propelled Journe’s status as an important elite of horology. Powered by the firm’s in-house cal. 1506 composed of 18K gold, the highly sophisticated movement enables the dial to feature an unconventional chronograph with 100th of a second register, 20-second register and a 10-minute register, formulating the distinct appeal of the Centigraphe Souverain. Furthermore, another creative approach is implemented to replace the traditional chronographic pushers by activating and deactivating the chronograph with three registers activated at the same time. Once activated, the 100th of a second register is certainly a crowd-pleaser allowing the wearer to witness the high-speed movement of the chronographic hand. To achieve such a feature without interrupting the timekeeping system, a mechanism within isolates the chronograph from its timekeeping system, meaning that the amplitude would not be affected when the chronograph is activated. A marvel to admire as one activates the chronograph function, the present example of the F.P. Journe Centigraphe Souverain in platinum from 2009 is offered by the original owner in an attractive overall condition.

Patek Philippe’s legacy of fine watchmaking stems from innovations first pioneered in pocket watches. Technical achievements like perpetual calendars, minute repeaters, and chronographs were once confined to the pocket watch realm. However, these complications served as the foundation for Patek Philippe’s iconic wristwatches we admire today. Pieces like the famed ref. 1518 perpetual calendar chronograph, the ref. 2497 perpetual calendar, the ref. 3974 minute repeater perpetual calendar, and the ref. 5208 minute repeating perpetual calendar chronograph have cemented Patek Philippe’s reputation at the pinnacle of watchmaking. The genesis of these marvels can be traced back to achievements like those seen in this breathtaking pocket watch from 1892. This 19th Century exquisite pink gold minute repeating perpetual calendar chronograph pocket watch exemplifies Patek Philippe’s mastery. Its sublime chimes ring clear and true, allowing one to tell the time even in darkness. The elegant enamel dial features a moon phase indicator, month and week indication in French, red date display, and small seconds subdial. Originally owned by American textile titan M.C.D. Borden. His company, American Printing Company became the largest producer of printed cotton cloth in the United States by early the early 20th Century, earning him the nickname “the Calico King”. The present pocket watch is incredibly well-preserved for its age, with crisp engravings and hallmarks. Its array of complications foreshadowed the sophisticated wristwatches that would ultimately make Patek Philippe famous.

The city of San Francisco presented the watch to Dr. Rupert Blue in circa 1908 in recognition of his respectable efforts and achievements on the scientific and medical front line in eradicating the epidemic of bubonic plague, often viewed as the first plague epidemic in continental United States. More than a century ago, Dr. Blue already had the foresight to order work, school and all social activities to shut down as a measure against the epidemics, in many ways reminiscent of our Covid-19 days. Dr. Blue was also known for his outstanding contribution as acting Surgeon General of the United States in stopping the Spanish Flu in 1918, and for his impacts on reforming the Public Health Service. Engraved on the cuvette of the present pocket watch are the tender inscriptions, “To Rupert Blue P.A. Surgeon, U.S.P.H. and M.H.S. from the citizens of San Francisco. In grateful recognition of services rendered the city while in command of the Sanitation Campaign of 1908”. The present pocket watch is encased in a beautiful bassine style open-face yellow gold case, and comes with an enamel dial, delicately embellished by the exquisite Louis XV hands, Breguet numerals, red minute figures surrounding the chapter ring, and two subsidiary dials with red numerals. The dial is signed with “Shreve & Co.”, an established retailer and one of the oldest commercial establishments founded in 1894 in San Francisco and the successor to The Shreve Jewelry Company. Housing an outstanding manual movement combining a minute repeater and split seconds chronograph, the calibre 16’’’ features a lever escapement with counterpoised pallet fork, bi-metallic compensated balance. Preserved in excellent condition despite its age and accompanied with the Patek Philippe Extract from the Archives confirming production of the present watch in 1905, this extraordinary timepiece is so much more than a mere timekeeping device, but rather a spectacular historic relic celebrating our resilience and grit in surviving through endless chapters of human sickness and suffering.

Size matters too in the world of vintage watches. Nicknamed the “Calatravone” (large Calatrava in Italian), the reference 570 is a favourite among vintage Patek Philippe collectors. It comes with a case size of 35mm in diameter and is a larger version of the renowned reference 96 (30.5mm in diameter), the original Patek Philippe Calatrava. While the reference 570 was deemed a large watch at the time it was introduced to the market, it is now considered a dress watch with the perfect size and proportion for a modern connoisseur.
The present watch is a rare white gold example which houses the in-house manual calibre 27 SC (Seconde au Centre) from the 2nd series, that began production in circa 1950, and is a modification of the original calibre 12 Sci with the added sweep seconds mechanism by Victorin Piguet. Inside the three-part case uniting the simple lugs, flat bezel, round case and caseback, it features a dazzling silver sunburst dial beneath the white gold applied baton indexes, baton hands and exquisite hand-crafted pearl hour markers.
The iconic reference 570 was in production from 1938 to 1972 for more than 3 decades, during an era when the concept of a wristwatch was still relatively new. Its design was influenced by Bauhaus aesthetics which celebrated functionality. During its long production years through various alterations, encased mostly in yellow gold and rarely in white gold, pink gold, stainless steel, or platinum paired with a wide range of dial designs, its essence of elegant simplicity was cemented as the soul of the Calatrava collection.
Born in the year of 1963, the present watch is preserved in exceptional condition, and is accompanied by a Patek Philippe Extract from the Archives. Despite its 60 years of age, the black enamel signature, including the accent on ‘Genève’, remains raised on the dial, and the silver sunburst finish has retained its gleaming glamour. This beautiful watch has undoubtedly exemplified the enchantment of the reference 570 as an epitome of simplicity and quiet elegance, an irreplaceable classic in the history of the Patek Philippe Calatrava.

To commemorate the relocation of the maison’s watch manufacture from France to La Chaux de Fonds, Switzerland in 1972, Cartier released an exclusive line of twelve gold timepieces to celebrate its heritage, the “Louis Cartier Collection”. Famed for their creativity and endless muse, one of the model that took design to another level is the present Cartier Gondole “Jumbo”. Offered in yellow and white gold, this large, and funky Gondole with art deco influences boast an elegant double-stepped case that reminiscent a TV-shape from its era. Available either in vertical or horizontal orientation, the dials were off-white in colour and paired with classic Roman numerals, chemin de fer and blued steel hands. Furthermore, a small “PARIS” signature denotes that these pieces were sold from the brand’s flagship Paris Place Vendôme store. With rising popularity of vintage Cartier timepieces in recent times, this Cartier Gondole “Jumbo” preserved in excellent overall condition certainly stands out on the wrist with incredible presence.

Sized at 45.5mm diameter cased in precious 18K yellow gold, the French hallmark indicated by an eagle head remains deep and crisp at the base of the pendant. Fitted with a guilloché dial with a Cartier Paris signature at 12 o’clock, this rare pocket watch was born from the maison’s first boutique in Paris during the twenties. A coat of arms on the caseback reflects historical events of the Spanish region and is possibly an adaptation of the Spanish crest of the Crown of Castile, in which its original version features two castles and two lions featured on a red and white checkered background. The Kingdoms of Castile and León came to be known collectively as the Crown of Castile during the union of King Ferdinand II of Aragon and Isabella I of Castile in 1479. An old castle on a red background is a symbol specific to the Castile region, and the five castles seen on this emblem may represent the five Kingdoms of Spain – Asturias, Galicia, León, Castile, and Aragon. The traditional crest of the Crown of Castile is featured on a red and white checkered background, which is featured on the right side of this emblem. Above this, the claw is likely a nod toward the lion in the original crest, which represents the León region. The piece was found in a Spain antique shop by a collector and comes with the original presentation box. This piece provides a perfect opportunity for a seasoned connoisseur with a desire to hold a piece of history and values the beauty of nostalgia.

The Tank Chinoise has traditionally been created in a square shape, with its first model created over a century ago in 1922. Only in 2022 did the collection see this change to a rectangular shape for the first time. The brancards bring a special character to the watch, with the parrel bars representing Asian temple porticos. The beauty of the harmonious and symmetrical features of Eastern architecture shines through in this watch. The CPCP Tank Chinoise comes in three variations in yellow gold, rose gold, and platinum, three of which come with open lacquer-decorated dials in yellow gold and platinum. This Tank Chinoise is fitted with a yellow gold dial, with blued sword hands and black roman numerals. Its caseback is engraved with No. 009/150. It is a mechanical manual wound movement and outfitted with the calibre 430 MC, which allows the watch to have such an ultra-thin profile. A beautiful, limited-edition piece, with its own distinctive allure surely will catch the discerning eye. The Chinoise is also a wonderfully versatile watch, one that can also be considered a unisex option.

The Cloche de Cartier is, undeniably, an odd one. If the name does not ring a bell, have a look again. Straight forward enough, the word “cloche” translates to “bell” and evidently, this model’s name is derived from the fact that the watch resembles one resting on its side. Exuding an exotic charm, the Roman numerals on the dial are adjusted 90° clockwise from their habitual stance, with the 12 o’clock index sitting where 3 o’clock usually does, next to the crown. If one is accustomed to telling time off traditional analogue wristwatches, this may require some time to adapt to. This quirky design was first introduced as a wristwatch in 1921. Due to its unconventional display of time, it has appeared more sporadically than other Cartier classics. Paying homage to this century old model, the Cloche de Cartier was revived in 2021 as a 100-piece limited edition in the Privé Collection. Designed to turn heads, the Cloche is certainly destined to grace the wrists of connoisseurs in search something outshines the ordinary.

To celebrate its 175th anniversary in 2014, Patek Philippe unveiled six limited edition timepieces that highlighted the brand’s unparalleled technical skills and artistry. The ref. 5275P chiming jump hour wristwatch was undoubtedly the most complicated and impressive of the collection. Inspired by the 1989 commemorative ref. 3969 released for Patek Philippe’s 150th anniversary, the ref. 5275P paid homage while asserting a bold, modern style. It took Patek Philippe’s watchmakers four years to research and develop this complex timepiece. Only 175 examples were produced, with the platinum case and dial engraved in a floral scroll motif. The motif elegantly adorns the otherwise empty dial and extends to the case sides and clasp. The innovative cal. 32-650 HGS PS represented a remarkable feat of technology. The jumping hour mechanism required intricate power and energy management to synchronize the functions. Four new patents were introduced, three for the jumping mechanism and one isolating the hour striking. As a result, the seconds, minutes and digital hour all advance instantaneously rather than continuously. While the ref. 3969 was traditionally sized, the ref. 5275P makes a bolder statement at 40mm diameter and 47.5mm lug to lug. Connoisseurs particularly appreciate its loud, crisp chime synchronized precisely to the time. Fresh-to-market and complete with its original Patek Philippe Certificate of Origin and accessories. The ref. 5275P exemplifies Patek Philippe's taste, technical mastery, and incredible rarity, representing the pinnacle of fine watchmaking.

The magnificent salmon dial of this present watch would not fail to leave you in awe. Truly and proudly “hand-made”, it is embellished by the most exquisite guilloché patterns engine turned by hand. When light hits the satin-finished peripheral chapter ring and sub-dial ring, an intoxicating hue of salmon emits from the surface. This resonates with Voutilainen’s signature flinqué at the centre of the dial, the Clous de Paris beneath the gold applied indexes and the Damier pattern at the middle of the subsidiary dial, to produce a dazzling glimmer in the most brilliant salmon color that you could ever imagine, generating a sublime delight on the eyes. The dial of the present timepiece is further enhanced by the quirky Observatoire hands, with their blued steel loops on a gold shaft with arrow at the tip, and the classic Voutilainen teardrop lugs, imbuing the timepiece with its unique character and aesthetics. The present watch also houses the famous in-house calibre 28 (hence the model name, Vingt-8) which combines the highest level of finishing on the movement with technical prowess. The movement features a rare balance-spring system with a large balance wheel that allows for perfect regulation of the watch within strict tolerances, with the exterior of the spring uses a typical Phillips overcoil, while the internal curve uses the Grossmann curve. The two escape wheels further permits for less energy consumption by sending direct impulse in two directions at the same time to the balance through the impulse jewel. Aesthetically, it is an utter joy to see the two blued escapement wheels dance in synchronized movements, in a sea of finely polished screws, rubies, gold chatons and wheels. Accompanied by full accessories, with a certificate signed by Kari Voutilainen, this beautiful timepiece is a dream and the definition of a timeless masterpiece.

ROLEX — An extremely rare and important stainless steel military diver’s wristwatch with fixed lugs and military engravings, made for the British Royal Navy
A tool built to last, a true field watch, the Rolex Submariner Milsub is by far one of the most elusive and coveted models amongst the vintage realm of Rolex timepieces. As the forerunner in their expertise in creating timepiece with the utmost durability and waterproof certainty, it is no surprise that they caught the attention of the British Ministry of Defense (MOD) and marking the first appearance of the commissioned military-issued Submariner in the 1970s. Robust and ready for combat, these “Milsubs” were equipped with fixed spring bars welded to the lugs to prevent the fitting from failure. Another feature was a revolving bezel insert calibrated for 60 minutes, instead of the civilian 15-minute calibrated bezel. The Military of Defense also required a hack (stop seconds) feature and permanent. Fitted with a black dial paired with wide sword-shaped hands for enhanced readability, an encircled “T” is marked above the depth rate indicating the use of luminescent tritium. The casebacks bears military engravings—the present lot marked with the “0552” code for British Royal Navy, “923-7697”, the NATO code, followed by the issue number, “914”, and year of issue, “78”. The inside case back on this watch is repeated with the serial number, which is correct for a special order watch.

Following decommissioning, these military wristwatches often were either destroyed by the MOD, or purchased by civilians, with most being transformed by removing the military features and changing the watch to a more “civilian” timepiece. As a result, the present example is an incredible find. An exquisite specimen, the present watch is further remarkable for its very rare, 5517 reference, uniquely made for the MOD and without doubt the most prized and sought after of all Rolex Milsubs. Bearing a case number 5’339’731, PHILLIPS is pleased to present the 3rd specimen of the rarefied ref. 5517 at our auction. The other two examples bears close case number proximity: the 1st example case number 5’339’610 offered at Racing Pulse New York with a result of 567,000 USD, and the 2nd example case number 5’339’827 offered at Geneva Watch Auction: XIV sold at 504,000CHF. Well-preserved with crisp reference numbers engraved between the lugs and on the caseback, the “Maxi-dial” has also aged with an attractive patina on the large luminous plots and sword hands. Freshto-the-market, this impressive relic from circa 1978 was in possession of a discerned Japanese collector for over 12 years. A rare opportunity to own one of the most prized vintage timepieces that rarely appear at auction, this is an exciting chance for all Milsubs fans.

Making its debut in 1980, the Rolex GMT-Master ref. 16750 stood as the successor to the iconic ref. 1675, in production since 1959. While most iterations of this new reference boasted glossy black dials with luminous white gold indexes, early examples retained the matte black dial so redolent of its predecessor. Though retaining the beloved aesthetics, the ref. 16750 ushered in technical upgrades including the cal. 3075 movement beating at 28,800 vph, nearly 50% faster than its forerunner. Rolex also equipped it with a convenient quickset date function and doubled the water resistance rating from 50 to 100 meters. After an eight-year run, the ref. 16750 was discontinued in 1988, making way for the ref. 16760. This particular example hails from circa 1983, as evidenced by its 8.2 million serial number. Bearing the inimitable stamp of eminent retailer Tiffany & Co., this rare and well-preserved ref. 16750 represents a trophy for discerning collectors seeking only the finest and most elusive versions of iconic Rolex references.

The Rolex Sea-Dweller ref. 16600 was first introduced in 1989. Succeeding its short-lived older sibling ref. 16660, the new model featured similar aesthetics though upgraded with the firm’s new caliber 3135 running at a higher frequency of 28,800vph. With a production spanning 19 years, the ref. 16600 was discontinued in 2008, which in return made way for the Deepsea ref. 116660. Offered in well-preserved condition, the present example Rolex Sea-Dweller ref. 16600 with a “S” serial from circa 1994 is extra special. Elevating the importance of this example is the prestigious and highly coveted “Tiffany & Co.” retailer signature featured on the dial.

Making its important debut in 1953, the Patek Philippe ref. 2526 is the firm’s first self-winding wristwatch that was serially produced. Adored and appreciated by collectors, the prestigious reference is arguably one of the most impressive time-only model ever manufactured by Patek Philippe due to its practical self-winding caliber, timeless design and its tastefully executed off-white enamel dial. Encased in yellow gold, pink gold, white gold and platinum, it is estimated that throughout its production spanning until 1960, an estimated 2,350 examples were encased in yellow gold across all four series. The present example Patek Philippe ref. 2526 in yellow gold from the first series features case and movement numbers that are consistent with examples from the respective series. Featuring an off-white enamel dial with shorter index at 6 o’clock and a domed screw-down caseback topping it off with its original forged “double P” crown. Elevating the importance and rarity of the present ref. 2526 is the detail that sits right above the gilt Patek Philippe signature. While any Patek Phillipe stamped with the coveted Tiffany & Co. signature is highly desirable, only a handful of Tiffany & Co. stamped example have appeared in the market. Fresh-to-the-market, this example is a musthave reference for vintage connoisseurs, this ref. 2526 is from 1954 confirmed from the Patek Philippe Extract from the Archives..

An icon for Patek Philippe, the Nautilus has become the paradigm of luxury sports watch. As one of the most distinguished model with rich history, the modern Nautilus 5711 has enjoyed many variants before its discontinuation. The present Nautilus is one more the more dressier variant from its family. Cased in precious gold, the ref. 5711 drops its usual metal bracelet and highlights itself with an elegant crocodile strap in 2007 to celebrate the 30th anniversary of the Nautilus. Three versions debuted to complement the combination of the precious metal used: silver dial for yellow gold, brown charcoal for rose gold and cool slate grey for the white gold. In additional a novel design of the clasp engraved with Nautilus was made especially for this release. Considered to be a stealth version amongst the trio, the present white gold 5711G-001 has an extra touch that makes this the rarest of all. Featuring a slate grey ribbed dial that hones all Nautilus DNA, it is stamped with the prestigious Tiffany & Co. signature at 6 o’clock. The two names, Patek Philippe and Tiffany & Co. have long been grails amongst collectors’ circles. The present 5711G-001 from circa 2012 is in excellent overall condition and is furthermore part of the earlier examples bearing the Geneva seal. Paired with a black crocodile strap, the Nautilus becomes more versatile, enabling the watch to go from dress to casual depending on the wearers sartorial attire. Rarer than its stainless steel sibling, this is the first 5711G-001 with Tiffany & Co stamp to be auctioned at PHILLIPS, and is certain to become as coveted or even more than the latter.

ROLEX — A highly attractive, beautifully preserved, important, and rare yellow gold triple calendar wristwatch with star-set indexes, moonphases and bracelet
Property from a Distinguished Collector 傑出私人收藏
Not all watches are equal. Many watches, even some of the vintage collector’s pieces, can most often be described from a distance, according to established scholarship and literature. “They are what they are”, sometimes perfect, sometimes not, but a reference number and a detailed list of the accompanying accessories, paired with a precise condition report, and the reader knows as much as the person seeing the watch up close. And then there are the other group of watches. Actually, they are no longer plain watches, they become works of art. They stand out by a number of qualities that cannot be found elsewhere – and sometimes it is the combination and large variety of qualities that make them stand out, that make them become the pinnacle of watch collecting. The present Rolex reference 6062 “Stelline” is such a watch. If there was an Olympic Pentathlon for watches, this Star (no pun intended) would be surely a prime candidate for the gold medal. What is the Pentathlon in the world of vintage collector’s wristwatches? Most scholars will probably agree it is Maker/Model, Importance, Condition, Rarity, Provenance. One thing is for sure, Rolex does not need any introduction. Like Picasso, Mouton Rothschild, or Ferrari, it is no longer simply a name for a fine product. It is the synonym for a genre, another word of the best in a certain field. Anyone comparing an artwork, Bordeaux or sports car uses these icons as reference, the gold standard in a certain field. To some extent, reference 6062 is a different scenario. It is, outside the world of hardcore collectors, a relatively little-known model. Whereas the Day-Date, Submariner and Daytona have reached a status of stardom, the “sixty-sixty-two” is a niche product and has not survived more than a handful of years in Rolex’s production – a fraction of Rolex’s mainstays that are with us and in our minds since over 50 years, sometimes even up to 70 years. Reference 6062 is a child of the early 1950s and most likely a Rolex’s own interpretation of the gentleman’s full calendar wristwatch. It is an Oyster model, fitted with a 36mm water-resistant “Ovettone”-style case. It is also equipped with Rolex’s proven and reliable self-winding calibre 9 ¾’’’ but with the added full calendar and moon phases indication. Despite the unusually small production run, reference 6062 was available in yellow and pink gold but also in stainless steel. A variety of dial version were also created but the most iconic is certainly the one fitted with star-shaped hour markers – the reason why the reference is often simply called the “Stelline” (Italian for little stars) – even the versions fitted with square, dagger or Arabic numerals. Without exaggeration, reference 6062 is one of the rarest, certainly most difficult to find models in Rolex’s post war production. The so-called “Bao Dai”, a yellow gold reference 6062 with black dial and diamond hour markers once belonging to Vietnam’s last emperor, still sits “up there” on the throne as the most valuable example of this model and as one of the most valuable vintage wristwatches of all times. Why still? Its result at Phillips Geneva dates back to 2017, broke a world-record for any Rolex ever sold at auction and was since dethroned by no other watch than the very Paul Newman of Paul Newman.

What in real estate is “location, location, location” is in watches “condition, condition, condition”. All original, never restored yet perfectly well-preserved examples are the most difficult to find but also the most searched for vintage watches. Even watches with substantial price tags back in the 40s, 50s or 60s were worn. And serviced. And scratched. And polished. And again worn. And if this cycle took on average 5 years to complete, a vintage watch may have well seen 10 or even more interventions. And each time a watch is serviced, cleaned and polished, a piece of its original condition and history is lost. The present “Stelline” must have had a completely different life. Quite simply put, it shows the wear and aging one would normally associate with a 5-year-old watch. Inside the case back, where watchmakers traditional leave a code or mark when they service it, one can only identify one such mark, reading “M 7-1-85”, possibly dating to January 7th, 1985, and done by a watchmaker whose name may start with the letter M. There is another faint residue of an inscription in felt pen. This could either be a second service note or an inventory code. By decoding the inside of the case back one most conclude that that the watch has spent some 90% of its life in a drawer, box or vault. The case condition tells the same story: A sharp, very likely never polished case, with strong milling to the screwed Oyster case-back, the lovely and original satin-finish underneath the lugs, including a deep hallmark, but also wonderfully strong angles to the surfaces of the case, including the horizontal satin-finish on the side of the bezel. It appears that even the crystal is still the original one for 70 years!

ROLEX — A highly attractive, beautifully preserved, important, and rare yellow gold triple calendar wristwatch with star-set indexes, moonphases and bracelet
The movement tells us the very same story with perfectly clean surfaces and crisp screw-heads. The dial, the core of this gem’s appearance, is as good as it gets: A perfect grainé (grainy) silvered surface, quite free of scratches or so-called “burns”, shows depth and warmth – an ideal combination. The faceted month and weekday apertures are sharp, as on the day the dial left Geneva some 7 decades ago. The outer ring, calibrated from 1 through to 31, is in a wonderful medium, nearly denim-blue, printed in the typical Rolex-font with the 6s and 9s “open”. The semicircle underneath the aperture for the moon phases retains its perfect micro-azurage on which OFFICIALLY SUPERLATIVE CHRONOMETER is printed, the highest accolade for a wristwatch movement as it confirms that is has been tested for 1 month at an observatory for its precision. The hour markers, 5-pointed stars, are of incredible finesse and proportions, where at their center a tiny dot of luminous material is applied. All of them complete and flawless, they form the perfect balance all together and harmonize and come together in an indescribable balance. The icing on the cake is the wonderfully rigid, 1952 stamped Jubilee bracelet that shows no loss of its original finish and factory firmness. And for those in the Rolex community blessed with the Indiana Jones-genes, always dreaming of the long-forgotten treasure, this Stelline displays the perfect amount of wonderful surface oxidation, mixing hues of orange, brown and purple – another proof that this treasure has not been worn or cleaned in ages but rather respectfully preserved by its owners.

Speaking of its past owners and its provenance: This pièce de résistance was prominently last sold in these salerooms, at the headline grabbing Phillips Hong Kong Rolex Milestones: 38 Legendary Watches That Shaped History auction in November 2016, when it doubled its pre-sale estimate. The consignor then was, without any exaggeration, one of if not the most revered collector of vintage wristwatches, notably by Patek Philippe and Rolex, blessed with the sharpest eye and one of the longest experiences in the community. The present Stelline was then, in 2016, acquired by the current consignor, a distinguished collector of impeccable taste and with an extremely demanding eye for the highest standards for esthetics and quality, who treated it with utmost respect and practically never touched it, let alone wore it on his wrist. In terms of rarity, the equation is quite simple. Whereas Rolex produced only a very small number of references 6062 in yellow gold, examples fitted with the iconic star-shaped numerals are truly very few and particularly sought after. But when paired with a triple-A condition, we are in front of a watch that is as rare as a unicorn, quite literally. It should therefore not come as a surprise that, when preparing the thematic auction Rolex Milestones: 38 Legendary Watches That Shaped History, the teams who selected the watches composed of a committee of specialists from Phillips together with the worldrenowned scholar, author and authority in the field, John Goldberger, selected this very watch to represent this model family in this landmark auction. So, going back to the first question: If there was a Pentathlon in the field of vintage wristwatches, who would be a candidate to win this prestigious competition? We believe that the answer is now known.

When reference 116710BLNR was launched in 2013, collectors were immediately raptured by the black and blue bezel, a color combination never before seen on a GMT. A true instant classic, the “Batman” - as it soon came to be known due to obvious chromatic reasons - is now one of the most desired modern sports watches made by any brand. Such a remarkable success was surprisingly accompanied by a relatively short production run: from 2019 the new reference 126710BLNR - with Jubilee bracelet nicknamed “Batgirl” and new caliber 3285 - took its place, making this now discontinued model highly interesting under a collectability level. Preserved in its untouched “new-old-stock” condition from 2017, this is collector’s chance to grab the first model of its kind: truly “Batman begins”.

Rolex has always pioneered new materials in watchmaking. Meteorite dials, made from the Gibeon meteorite that fell in Namibia, are a particular favorite among collectors for their rarity and natural beauty. As the first to use meteorite in a wristwatch, Rolex masterfully incorporates the space-born material into the dials of certain Day-Date, GMT-Master, and Daytona models. Each thin slice of meteorite is uniquely patterned, so no two dials will ever be identical. The meteorite’s surface is gently acid-washed to accentuate its mesmerizing texture. This circa 2004 Daytona ref. 116519 featuring a meteorite dial is offered with its original guarantee. With meteorite supply now extremely limited, demand for these singular timepieces has steadily risen. For the discerning collector, this is a perfect opportunity to acquire one of Rolex’s most desirable and fascinating watches.

The Rolex GMT-Master remains as one of the most sought-after timepieces with its aesthetics remaining very much similar to its original design, most notably the bi-colored “Pepsi” bezel that many are fond of. In 2014, Rolex shocked the community by releasing their very first GMT-Master II ref. 116719BLRO encased in 18K white gold offering collectors and admirers of the model a subtle touch of luxury. This reference was then usurped by the ref. 126719BLRO in 2018, powered by the upgraded cal. 3285 and fitted with a handsome blue dial to match. One year later, the firm released the premier GMT Master II with a magnificent meteorite dial like the present example.

The Rolex Cosmograph Daytona reference 116515 was launched at Basel World in 2012 and featured several upgrades to the iconic Daytona model. This particular reference debuted a stunning new dial variant featuring a metallic bonze-like colour called the “Sundust” that complements its Everose gold case. Elevating its utilitarian tool watch appeal, the dial is adorned with eleven diamond-set hour markers, giving it a show stopping aesthetic with a dash of opulence. Paired with its ever-so-comfortable Oysterflex rubber strap, it became an instant hit and status symbol among watch collectors and enthusiasts. The watch is powered by Rolex’s in-house cal. 4130, a self-winding mechanical chronograph movement renowned for its precision. The present timepiece from 2020 will certainly be a fantastic addition to any collection as it is in excellent overall condition and is accompanied by its full set of accessories. Adding to its rarity, the reference is now discontinued, and has been replaced by the 2023 debutants with resized and restyled counter rings, not to mention, hour markers.

The venerable Day-Date has long stood as a paragon of Rolex ingenuity. Traditionally cased at 36mm, a larger 41mm variant debuted in 2008 as the Day-Date II. Today, the Day-Date family is available in classic 36mm and contemporary 40mm options. While Rolex has always pioneered material innovations, like hardstone dials, recent collector enthusiasm for such uniqueness has grown exponentially. To date, the maison has incorporated 25 exquisite hardstones, each prized for rarity and peerless craftsmanship. In 2021, Rolex subtly unveiled its newest creation – the 25th hardstone dial, Eisenkiesel. This Germanic semi-precious quartz, speckled with iron inclusions, normally manifests in warm yellow, red or brown hues. Its hardy 7 Mohs hardness provides durable elegance. Here, set against Rolex’s own Everose gold case, the dial dazzles in its unique pattern of brown hues, further embellished with diamond-set Roman numeral indexes in a dazzling display of jewelry watchmaking. Offered here in nearly unworn condition complete with accompanying accessories, this 36mm Rolex Day-Date ref. 128235 represents an opportunity to acquire the extraordinary Eisenkiesel dial at auction, bypassing the boutique waiting list. For collectors of exceptional Day-Dates, the present example is a sublime horological treasure.

Launched to celebrate the 10th anniversary of the Aquanaut, Patek Philippe introduced the reference 5167 in 2007. Unveiled together with the reference 5165, the reference 5167 featured a larger case measuring 40mm diameter to cater towards the taste of contemporary collectors. Highly sought after in recent years, the reference can be considered as one of the hottest Patek Philippe sports models on the market, alongside the less robust Nautilus. In 2019, to celebrate and commemorate the 2019 Grand Exhibition in Singapore, Patek Philippe delighted collectors by launching the reference 5167 with an unusual twist and adding eye-catching details. Like its national flag, the 5167 aquanaut celebrates red for the Singapore edition. First and foremost, the seconds hand is in bright red, the indexes and most obvious of all the bright red rubber strap that gives the model the sports look. One of a limited edition of 500 pieces only, the present timepiece is the second example to be auctioned at Phillips. It is furthermore offered with all its original accessories, marking an exciting opportunity for patriots or discerning collectors to acquire this exceedingly rare variant of a highly sought-after model.

The RM033 is an elegant non-conformist in the world of tonneaushaped Richard Mille wristwatches. It is time-only and comes with a round extra flat tripartite case which measures only 6.3mm thick, retaining chiefly the curving case back which is one of the most important hallmarks of the Richard Mille design. Introduced in 2011, the RM033 has served as a loyal variant that promotes subtle elegance amidst the other louder Richard Mille sports models. Richard Mille has only exclusively produced watches with their signature tonneau-shaped case from 2001 to 2006, and in 2007 introduced a rectangular case. It was not until 2009 that they began launching diving wristwatches with round cases, namely the RM025 and RM028, which are much bulkier and thicker than the present RM033. The key to developing an ultra-thin wristwatch is to overcome the challenge of fitting a movement into a case with very limited space available. The design of the off-center platinum micro-rotor on the RM033 is distinctive characteristic of the RMXP1 calibre. It allows bi-directional movement and has the optimal weight for smooth and efficient winding and is the secret to the thinness of the movement, measuring at 2.6mm only. The movement of the RM033 also features a great shock protection system, and sturdy bridges, baseplate and balance cock made in grade 5 titanium with black PVD coating, a testimony to the fact that the Extra Flat needs not to compromise efficiency with its thinness. The attractive skeletonized dial and transparent case back of this RM033 means that the wearer can admire the beautiful movement in close, inside the 18K white gold case (also available in 18K pink gold or platinum), and beneath the Arabic numeral dial (also available with Roman numeral) and luminous hour markers and hands. It is presented in excellent condition and accompanied by full set of accessories and comes with a chic orange rubber strap.

Steering away from his usual polished designs, F.P. Journe’s Octa Sport is a stylish contemporary automatic wristwatch with a charcoal grey dial and an aluminium bracelet to match. Notably, rubber inserts are fixed onto the sides of the case, which not only protects the timepiece from shocks and impact but also gives it a distinctive look. A dream to wear on the wrist, this exclusive aluminium watch is feather light. The matte aluminium dial is highlighted by complementary pops of red and white, from the date numerals within the signature date apertures, the AM/PM indication, the small seconds and the model’s designation under 12 o’clock. These red accents on the dial further enhance the sportiness of this model. Reserved exclusively for the Linesport series, the aluminium cal. 1300.3 marks the first movement ever to be created from this material, and is an unusual choice for the brand apart from its iconic brass and pink gold movements. Powered by an aluminium alloy and tungsten segmented rotor, the movement provides a five-day power reserve and a variable inertia balance wheel for an optimum yield and stability, allowing optimal winding with even the slightest movement of the wrist. Offered by the original owner, the present Octa Sport is complete with its guarantee and presentation box. Furthermore, the set is accompanied with a brand new uncut black rubber strap for its new owner. F. P. Journe is a modern master horologist who continues to produce some of the most sought-after models in the market today.

To mark the first Swiss challenger to participate in the America’s Cup, held in Auckland New Zealand, Audemars Piguet released the City of Sails “Be Happy” edition Royal Oak in 1999.The chronograph is limited to 300 pieces and is constructed of titanium, a sturdy but difficult to work with metal that is light and easy to wear. The dial has a clear and unique flair, displaying a deep blue tapisserie background, reminiscent of the blue oceanic tones and light blue skies. Furthermore, the dial also showcases yellow splashes of colour for the hour, minutes and chrono hands reminiscing of those sunny summer days. The date aperture is interestingly placed between 4 and 5 o’clock. The rear of the case is inscribed with the phrase “City of Sails,” a nickname for Auckland, New Zealand, which is recognized for its maritime heritage. The lightness and sturdiness of the case and bracelet enable the timepiece to deliver a comfortable and unique feel to the wrist. Offered in excellent overall condition with its full set of accessories, the present example not only impresses thanks to its good looks but also, its rarity.

Immediately recognisable with no introduction needed, the Audemars Piguet Royal Oak is disguisable by its octagonal bezel and “Grand Tappisserie” dial. Not only loved by watch collectors, it is also the ideal sporty-casual watch suited for any occasion with a dash of quiet confidence. Since it debuted in 1972, the Royal Oak has been modified aesthetically with added complications. However, its early variants all share a similarity other than their name—their movements were outsourced. At the beginning of the millennium, the manufacturer introduced the now discontinued ref. 15300. This was the genesis of its line of Royal Oaks that carries its famed in-house movement, calibre 3120, featuring a 60-hour power reserve and a full balance with a free-sprung index, plus hacking seconds and a quick-set date. Continuing the legacy of its predecessor, the ref. 15450ST appeared as a mid-sized option in the Audemars Piguet catalogue in 2012. This three-handed timepiece is a Royal Oak through and through. Incorporating its core aesthetical DNA, it features the iconic multifinished stainless steel case and bracelet, matched with a blue texturised dial. Boasting a beautiful blue dial, the present example is preserved in an excellent overall condition and is accompanied by its original accessories. When worn on the wrist, there is no question as to why the Audemars Piguet Royal Oak is considered a holy grail for many watch aficionados. With a substantial wrist presence, the now discontinued ref. 15450ST is the quintessence of luxury sports watches while also sporting the craftsmanship of high-end Swiss watchmaking.

Launched in 2000, the Royal Oak ref. 15202 has become one of the most coveted watches of the past years. Mostly cased in stainless steel, the last time that a full yellow gold ref. 15202 with a matching gold dial was released back in 2012 to celebrate the model’s 40th anniversary. A success and praised by collectors, the brand decided to bring back the alluring yellow gold Royal Oak Jumbo during SIHH 2017. Much closer to the original ref. 5402 that collectors adore, the nuance of the AP logo placed at 6 o’clock on the petite tapisserie dial, the full gold 39mm Royal Oak striking as it is now features a vivid blue dial for the first time. The combination is absolutely stunning and refreshing. The gold certainly adds extra heft to the Royal Oak, but thanks to the legendary ultra-thin cal. 2121, the watch wears comfortably on the wrist. Powered by a gold rotor, the workhorse for the Jumbo can now be admired fully through the sapphire caseback. Discontinued and rarely to be seen in the market, this Royal Oak Jumbo was worn with absolute care, thus very well-preserved and retains its original sharp and crisp finishing. For those who is not afraid to stand out in the crowd, look no further, this is the one for you.

Developed jointly by a team of skilled watchmakers from Vacheron Constantin and the Belgian horological inventor Jean Genbrugge along with his wife Lucie, the Mercator wristwatch features a specially designed mechanism developed by Genbrugge. The ingenious device controls the travel of both the hour and of the minute hands as they each move in an arc over a graduated sector. The hands themselves are styled like compass legs, reminiscent of the early hand-held compasses such as the ones which Mercator used throughout his life. The present Mercator from circa 1997 captures your attention with the coolness of the silver monochromatic tone, the dial is entirely chased by hand then enamelled, displaying the outlines of the hemisphere of the 1587 map of the world. Preserved in exceptional condition with its beautifully sculpted step lugs, this platinum timepiece is further accompanied by its full set of accessories and presents a rare opportunity for connoisseurs to acquire a mechanical work of wonder that captures both the art and history of the Renaissance period.

A swanky icon from the swinging sixties, the Cartier Crash is arguably one of the most disruptive designs in the horological world since its debut in 1967. Given the recent craze for fancy shaped Cartier creations, this fabulous contortionist has regained its status as the ultimate holy grail collectors fight tooth and nail over, just to have a chance to flash the Crash.
each channelling their own distinct flair without deviating from the Maison’s design DNA. According to his granddaughter, the Crash was resulted from the joint effort of Monsieur Cartier and one of the most influential artisans at the time, Rupert Emmerson. Together, the pair played with Cartier’s visual identity, stretching and bending it with much more audacity than his predecessors.
The legend of its origin is compelling and is sometimes romanticised. While many believe the Crash was the jeweller’s attempt to materialise the distorted clocks in Salvador Dalí’s famed painting—The Persistence of Memory, others swear by the highly plausible rumour that the watch was, in fact, a Baignoire that had melted after being engulfed in the flames of a burning car. The true accounts were finally addressed in 2019 by Francesca Cartier Brickell, who recounts a conversation with her grandfather, Jean-Jacques Cartier, about how the design actually came about in her book, The Cartiers.
A superlative timepiece that has remained an exclusive flagship boutique model of the firm, Cartier Paris released their own Crash in 1991 as a limited edition of 400 pieces in yellow gold followed by 50 pieces in platinum. The present example Cartier Crash in yellow gold belongs to an example numbered 37 of a limited edition of 400 pieces from the 1991 Paris series. Offered in excellent overall condition, this quirky timepiece will be a fantastic addition to any collection.
Many of Cartier’s most eccentric timepieces can be traced back to one address, Bond Street London. For north of three decades, Jean-Jacques Cartier was at the realm of the London outpost and was a champion of producing watches for a more adventurous clientèle,

The Les Historiques Arondes ref. 81018 is part of Vacheron Constantin’s illustrious line-up of re-imagined Classics, inviting the discerning collector to once again appreciate – now on the wrist – design that has endured the test of time. Paying homage to the original Arondes of 1954, it resurrected the distinctive ‘swallow’s wings’ bezel that characterizes the model. The sculpted bezel imparts an elegant and dynamically curved shape to the case, seamlessly blending with its integral downturned lugs. The use of solid 18k gold further reflects a commitment to doing justice to the original design through superior materials. Moving onto the dial, its design reflects the same standard of meticulous attention to detail, featuring a guilloché striated pattern executed on a silvered canvas that evokes a vintage aesthetic, paired with applied hour markers and Arabic numerals at 6 and 9 o’clock. The small seconds subdial at 6 o’clock exhibits a graceful symmetry, balancing function with visual subtlety. At the heart lies Vacheron Constantin’s renowned in-house rhodiumplated cal. 1400 - a testament to the technical sophistication and refinement that have characterized their movements since 1755. Features like the flat balance spring and self-compensating balance provide optimizations that ensure chronometric performance and durability, giving it 40 hours of power reserve at full wound. Offered in excellent condition, the present pink gold ref. 81018 is the perfect reflection of the firm’s enduring vision and mastery of classical watchmaking forms. Executed with 21st century innovation and virtuosity, the modern Arondes enable a new generation of collectors to appreciate an historically significant design while experiencing technical refinements beyond what was possible in the 1950s.

An impressive, angular, and lavishly designed rectangular wristwatch, the reference 5101 stands out not only with its case architecture, but in its remarkable mechanical prowess. First launched in 2003, it was the first wristwatch that combined a double-barrel 10-day power reserve with a tourbillon. Later that year, the 5101 won the “Aiguille d’Or”, or Golden Hand, prize at the Grand Prix d’Horologerie de Genève – the Grand Prix’s highest honor. The case, with triple-stepped sides and a long, curved rectangular silhouette, owes direct homage to the Art Deco era of design. As far as tourbillons go, Patek Philippe is notable for being tastefully subtle with their use of the complication, preferring not to reveal the mechanism through the dial. This is done with a specific intention - to decrease the susceptibility of the tourbillon-equipped escapement losing oil via exposure to UV rays – but also serves to set Patek Philippe apart from its competitors. The two-tone dial of this reference 5101 is remarkably clean and attractive, with two sub dials, one indicating the power reserve, the other the subsidiary seconds with the word “Tourbillon” and the serial number discreetly printed within. Only the wearer, and those enlightened connoisseurs would be able to discern exactly which complication resides within. Offered here in exceptional condition, with all of its original accessories, the present 5101R is a rare opportunity to obtain one of Patek Philippe’s modern masterpieces.

Featuring a rectangular-shaped case, the Georg collection was named after Georg the Bearded Duke of Saxony of the 16th century. Famous for playing an ambivalent role in the development of the Saxon humanism, Lang & Heyne is perhaps a perfect example of the embodiment of the Saxon mentality. Available in white gold, pink gold and platinum, the Georg displays an elegantly finished white enamel dial executed in the style of Art Deco featuring blued steel lancet hands. While the dial may look simple, it is far beyond that. Turning the watch on to its back, it is immediately noticeable that the cal. VIII is no ordinary movement. Displaying incredible craftsmanship, each component from the balance bridge to each individual blued stainless steel screw is made entirely in-house. The winding wheels feature double snailed finish with polished chamfers, and its balance bridge polished with a diamond set 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. The present example in pink gold numbered 15 is preserved in excellent overall condition and is complete with its full set of accessories.

Launched in 2000 the Chronomètre à Resonance had the effect of a tidal wave in the horological world as it was the world’s first wristwatch using the resonance phenomenon. The movement is composed of two independent balances alternatively serving as an “exciter” and “resonator”. When in motion, the balances create the resonance effect and beat in opposition, naturally evening out each other’s discrepancies and thus permitting greater accuracy. Journe’s quest of chronometry and accuracy inspired him to use a system originally devised by the great 18th century watchmaker Antide Janvier and for the first time miniaturize it into pocket watch format first in 1983 and push the boundaries into creating a wristwatch 17 years later. Not only a wonderful tribute to technical watchmaking, the Chronomètre à Resonance is also an extremely useful dual time watch. In recent times, these early and rare first generation examples with a brass movement and a 38mm diameter case made between 2000 – 2005 are of very high demand by collectors due to its technical prowess combined with the historical relevance to the heritage of the young firm. Fresh-to-the-market, the present example is of the rare and desirable 4th generation example from the brass movement series from circa 2004. Identified by design nuances such as the thin seconds hands, subdials, deep caseback engravings, the present example boast a stunningly well-preserved yellow gold dial that shines with a vibrant hue. Offered with its full set of accessories and offered in attractive condition, this rare timepiece will surely be a great addition to any of the world’s finest collection of fine timepieces.

A trinity of F. P. Journe founding models alongside with the Tourbillon Souverain and Chronométre à Résonance, the Octa Réserve de Marche was a challenge that François-Paul Journe took and conquered as one of the greatest development of a new collection. An automatic bi-directional winding caliber aimed to provide practicality and precision, the cal. 1300 released in 2001 with date provides 5 days power reserve of chronometric timekeeping. Amazing as it is to be bestowed on the first flagship model Octa Réserve de March, Journe does not settle of a one-hit-wonder. A marvel that took three years of research and development and measuring at just 30mm in diameter and 5.7mm thick, the caliber is designed with an integrated mind. Since its debut, the caliber 1300 has been used in every automatic wristwatch by the brand, that’s more than 14 different models such as Octa Caldndrier, Octa Divine, Octa Lune, Octa Perpetuelle, Octa Zodiaque just to name a few. All these complications integrated into a mind-blowing 1mm space on the dial-side of the movement. A stella achievement, this allows all Octa collection to be fitted into the same case, the first generation being the 38mm diameter with brass movements that are consider grails amongst collector circles. The Octa Réserve de Marche of the first generation were available in platinum and pink gold. The minimalistic dial had three variations: the most common white gold and yellow gold, and the most attractive of all, pink gold like the present example. The early dials from its production made of gold has a beautiful grained texture, and often has a propensity to develop patina and oxidation. The present platinum Octa Réserve de Marche on the other hand, is extremely well-preserved with a rare pink gold dial that kept its original glory from the day it left the workbench. Warm pink in color with an almost pale salmon hue in different angles, the timepiece is truly spectacular. Offered by the original owner and ticking all the boxes for collectability, the present brass movement 38mm timepiece from circa 2002 is accompanied with its rare and early three-level wooden box.

Encased in a pink gold double-ellipse case with a hinged case back, the present Daniel Roth perpetual calendar tourbillon features two semi-skeletonized dials. The front dial shows an hour and minute display with Roman numerals that sits on a grey transparent glass plate. The pink gold case and numerals resonate with the blued hands, generating a marvellous hue of champagne and bronze on the glassy dial. Separated by a delicate pink gold stain-finished bridge, one is exposed to an aperture at the 6 o’clock which reveals a phenomenal tourbillon in action, dancing in synchronized movement with the blued tri-sectioned second hands on top. The baseplate decorated with the signature ‘filet sauté’ guilloché decoration further accentuates the elegance of the wristwatch. Like a hidden treasure chest, the most fascinating part of the watch lies behind the hinged case back on the back dial. The intricate mechanism can be admired through the semi-skeletonized dial and one is instantly stunned by the remarkable moon phases indication, and the perpetual calendar with the transparent display discs. The present watch also features 8-day power reserve (a significant increase from the 40 hours of the Tourbillon C187) that is displayed on the power reserve indicator through a fine aperture above the signature on the front dial. The present watch is numbered 6, indicating that it is an example from early production. This mesmerizing timepiece is truly a perfect testimony to Daniel Roth’s extraordinary craftsmanship, and should not be missed out by any watch enthusiasts.

One of the most highly regarded limited editions ever released by A. Lange & Söhne, the 1815 Moonphase “Emil Lange” was introduced in 1999 to pay homage to the 150th anniversary of Emil Lange’s birth. In commemoration of this extraordinary figure, the 1815 Moonphase Emil Lange was produced in a limited edition of only 250 pieces in pink gold, and 150 pieces in platinum. Continuing the tradition of the 1815 collection, it contains the signature railway minute chapter ring with three dots on the quarter markers, also featured on the Tourbillon Pour le Mérite introduced in 1994 during Lange’s great revival, as well as on vintage Lange pocket watches. Instead of the standard Arabic numerals found in the 1815 collection, the “Emil Lange” comes with only the Arabic number 12 and round pink gold applique indices. The 3, 6 and 9 o’clock indices are replaced with exquisite applied stars, which resonate with the seven gold appliques depicting the Big Dipper in the constellation Ursa Major (one of the most distinctive asterisms in the sky) at the 6 to 8 o’clock. Amid the stars, one is captivated by the lustrous moon disc which has aged beautifully with alluring patina. The present watch houses the mechanical cal. L943.1 movement (based on the cal. L941.1 caliber found on the Saxonia family) which boasts the stop-seconds function and a power reserve of 45 hours. Visible through the transparent case back, one is exposed to the enticing three-quarter plate embellished with refined Glashütte stripes and ornate with gold chatons, red jewels, and blued screws, in addition to the uniquely hand-engraved balance-cock. Numbered 108 out of a limited edition of 250, and preserved in excellent condition with full accessories, this rare timepiece would not fail to enchant you.

2014 marked the 175th anniversary of Patek Philippe. To celebrate this momentous milestone, the Stern family, owners of the company since 1932, commissioned a series of 40 wristwatches, pocket watches and dome clocks, either as unique pieces or strictly limited edition pieces, to showcase the different rare handicraft skills that the firm protected from extinction. Many of the miniature artworks for this series were inspired by original paintings in the personal collection of Philippe Stern and demonstrate the extraordinary mastery of techniques of the firm’s artisans. Each paying tribute to the natural beauty of Lake Geneva and its traditional barques, different decorative mediums were employed over the range and included engraving, painting on enamel, cloisonné enamel and guilloche. Originally sold as a set of four limited edition wristwatches with impressive cloisonné dials, the present example is born from Patek Philippe’s desire to honour its illustrious legacy through contemporary creative expression. The exquisite cloisonné enamel dial, inspired by Louis Baudit’s 1951 oil painting “Scene of Unloading at the Quai des Pâquis”, unites artistic vision with technical virtuosity through the virtuoso handiwork of Anita Porchet. Incorporating three different enamel finishes- opaque, transparent and opalescent, along with applying approximately 20 colours of enamel and 40cm to 70cm of gold wires, Porchet fashioned a dial of unbelievable depth and dimension that fuses fine art with mechanical precision. Her signature at 5 o’clock discretely denotes the fruits of her labours, one of many invisible touches that attests to Patek’s obsession with perfection down to the smallest nuance.

The perpetual calendar chronograph occupies rarefied air in Patek Philippe’s storied history. Its lineage traces back to the legendary 1941 ref. 1518, succeeded by just four further iterations over eight decades - a testament to the complexity perfecting this ultimate expression of the watchmaker’s art. Launched in 2011, the ref. 5270 marked a milestone as the manufacture’s first perpetual calendar chronograph with a fully in-house movement, the cal. CH 29-535 PS Q. In the decade since its debut, Patek Philippe has finessed the model through subtle yet significant enhancements that now delineate three distinct series. The inaugural series paired blackened white gold hands and hour markers with railway minute divisions, exuding refined legibility. From 2013, the second series added an evocative ‘chin’ tachymeter scale contouring the subsidiary seconds dial, as exemplified here. Finally, the tachymeter was truncated at the seconds sub-dial for the current series. Offered for the first time at Phillips, this fresh-to-the-market stunning second series ref. 5270G from circa 2014 featuring the rarely seen silver opaline dial is the 3rd known example to have surfaced publicly. With only a two-year production window, the ref. 5270G “chin” stands out as one of the most coveted iterations of Patek Philippe’s perpetual calendar chronograph masterpiece. An exceptional example of the watchmaker’s art raised to grand complication zenith.

Launched in 1996, the Patek Philippe ref. 5004 is the firm’s first serially produced perpetual calendar with a split seconds complication. This reference, touching the hearts of collectors and connoisseurs, perfectly encapsulates the centuries-old horological prowess of the esteemed manufacturer and their timeless distinct design codes. The timepiece also marked another momentous moment for the firm as it featured the last Lemania-based caliber, cal. CH 27-70 Q. Combining its intricacy and costly process, only a dozen examples left the workbench per annum and after a sweet but short 16-year production run, it was subsequently replaced in 2012 by the ref. 5204, fitted with an in-house movement. A rare bird indeed, the ref. 5004 was an application piece which was arguably one of the most unattainable models that was near impossible to secure from boutiques. Featuring a sophisticated tuxedo attire, the semi-glossy dial in black decorated with 10 diamonds and 1 baguette diamond set hour markers is truly exceptional. Given its rarity and beauty, this exquisite example from 2010 remains untouched in its single-sealed packaging. Fresh-to-the-market and offered with its Certificate of Origin and full accessories, the present Patek Philippe ref. 5004P is, no doubt, a collector’s dream waiting to be unsealed for the first time.

1815 marks the birth year of Ferdinand Adolph Lange, the legendary founder of A. Lange & Söhne. The 1815 collection pays tribute to the brand’s tradition and their dedication to technical excellence in fine watchmaking. Heralded as an epitome of simplicity and elegance, this reference 206.025 is a classic gem adored by watch collectors. Featured with the DNA of the 1815 family, the dial of the watch is embellished by the signature railway track chapter ring with the 3 dots at the quarter hour markers, and Arabic numerals, also found on the very first Tourbillon Pour le Mérite released in Dresden during the A. Lange & Söhne’s Great Revival in 1994. The most eye-catching feature of the watch must be the blued hands. It is phenomenal to see them move across the stunning silver dial and sweep past the small seconds dial decorated with subtle azurage finish. As you flip the watch over, you will find that the back of this minimalistic watch has a lustrious hidden sight. The transparent case back of the watch reveals the captivating Lange movement L941.1, with the three-quarter plate beautifully chamfered and delicately decorated with Glashütte stripes, gold chatons, blued screws, red rubies, and exquisite engravings. This is further enhanced by the uniquely hand-engraved balance-cork with the classic Lange floral patterns. Complete with its original guarantee and presentation box, this is the perfect dress watch for the modern-day connoisseur.

The Lange 1 was the first of four models introduced in Dresden on 24th October 1994, marking the miraculous great revival of A. Lange & Söhne after decades of turmoil. Their first catalogue was titled “When time came home” and pays tribute to the homecoming of the fine watchmaking tradition back to Saxony. This theme is echoed by the iconic design of the outsize date display, that is poetically inspired by the Five-Minute Clock at Semper Opera House in Dresden. One is invoked with a pleasant warmth when looking at the patented date aperture on the Lange 1 as the days pass by. To place the outsize date aesthetically on the dial, Lange would apply the Golden Ratio to their dial designs. While the date aperture would typically land at the 12 o’clock, for the Saxonia, Arkade and Datograph alike, the Lange 1 possesses an unconventional charm with its offcentred outsize date which strikes a stunning visual balance with the centres of the other two sub-dials. This extraordinary dial design cements the watch as an irreplaceable classic in the history of A. Lange & Söhne. The alluring matte grey dial on the present Lange 1 also features fine and subtle azurage on the sub-dials, a delightful detail which elevates its superb elegance. Encased in a tripartite white gold case, the present reference 101.030 was produced in circa 2005 and features a first-generation calibre L901.0 which was discontinued in 2015. It is estimated that few examples were made. Preserved in excellent condition, and accompanied by full accessories, this fantastic Lange 1 is a gem that should not be missed by any watch enthusiasts.

For Denis Flageollet, the genius watchmaker behind the brand, innovation is the tradition of watchmaking. That is the reason why he doesn’t simply modify or improve traditional techniques, but has taken an almost scientific and mathematical approach to watchmaking by not only creating 21st century haute horlogerie in terms of technical innovations. He has completely changed movement architecture and finish to offer what is certainly one of the most striking results in contemporary horology. The DB25 “Starry Sky” was first launched in 2010, since then only 103 pieces were produced. Known for its work on blued titanium used for its 3D spherical moon phase display, De Bethune went one step further by offering a large 43mm, two level mirror polished heat blued titanium dial fitted with small gold pearls chased directly onto the dial to resemble the stars in the night sky. De Bethune also offered the possibility of having the sky chart depicted on the dial to be personalized to a specific geographical location and date. The cutting edge movement – both in terms of design and finishfeatures a five day power reserve indicator on the back, a selfregulating twin barrel for better distribution of power, titanium/ platinum balance wheel, silicon/platinum balance, triple pare-chute shock-absorbing and silicon escape-wheel. Preserved in excellent overall condition and complete with its original accessories, this is a great opportunity for connoisseurs to acquire a hypnotic timepiece with mesmerising impression of depth and infinity.

Lead by 36 year old Rexhep Rexhepi since 2012, the creations that comes out of the Atelier is now one of the world’s most sought-after timepieces by an independent watchmaker. “Our name, Akrivia, is taken from the Greek word for precision, and it is precision that defines the beauty and functionality of all our timepieces.” — Rexhep Rexhepi From small beginnings to today’s success, from the premiere in 2013 of the tourbillon monopusher chronograph AK-01 to the first Rexhep Rexhepi signed Chronomètre Contemporain, Rexhepi’s timepieces capture the heart of discerning collectors with a unique approach which differentiates their creations from others. Highly regarded by industry titans such as Philippe Dufour and Kari Voutilainen, Rexhep Rexhepi has become a key player among the new generation of young independents, sending shockwaves across the world of horology with his mastery of the craft. At the age of 15, the young talent began his horological career with an apprenticeship at Patek Philippe, focusing on tourbillons, before continuing to make an impact with a watchmaker role at F.P. Journe where he advanced quickly by assembling their most complex and sophisticated timepieces. Hard work paid off as the young talent strive for constant breakthrough for himself and for his creations, the industry recognized his success at the same time.

A design that takes a completely different approach from Akrivia’s futuristic timepieces in the AK series, the RRCC01 impress with simplicity. Proudly flaunting the “Rexhep Rexhepi” name on the dial, the RRCC01 is a time-only watch like the present example features a dial glazed with rich black Grand Feu enamel with pink gold accents that goes perfectly with its 38mm pink gold case balanced with brushed and high polish finishing. The case lugs are curved and elongated desirably reminds those found on Vichet cases from Patek Philippe. Strongly symmetrical in design, this language transfer towards the artisanal movement RR-01 and is truly, the star of the show. The entire movement’s visible and non-visible parts have been hand finished to the highest traditions of Geneva watchmaking. Each using classical techniques such as anglage black polish, perlage, côtes de Genève, hand graining, polishing and engraving with rhodium treatment crafted behind the workbenches at Atelier Akrivia. Satisfying for not only those who designed and brought them to reality, it was sensational to all who laid eyes on it.
And for those who know what Akrivia stands for, precision is the very core of the RRCC01. Equipped with hacking-second and zero-reset function, mechanism that allows the small seconds hand to pause and revert to zero when the winding crown is not in place. This function is rarely incorporated into wristwatches and maximizes precision when time is being set via a heart-shaped cam beneath the small seconds hand, akin to the resetting mechanism in a chronograph. Also notable is the traditional barrel click, which draws attention to the single barrel holding a whopping 100 hours of power reserve. Assembled with patience and dedication, the ticking of the RRCC01 starts the birth of extraordinary. Making its debut in auction in Hong Kong Watch Auction: XVI, a staggering 5.7million HKD bid brought down the gavel, resulting a world record price for the model of 7.39 million HKD. A true honor for PHILLIPS to offer a second opportunity for collectors to obtain an incredible chapter of Rexhep Rexhepi’s journey. Numbered 12R of the limited edition of 25 pieces from the collection, the RRCC01 is accompanied with its full accessories and a copy of The Besançon Observatory guidebook that documents the history of precision instruments.

Debuting in 1963, the Rolex Daytona has evolved into one of the most revered and coveted chronographs in horology. After decades of refinements, the year 2000 marked a milestone - the release of the new six-digit reference Daytona, powered by Rolex's first in-house chronograph movement, the self-winding cal. 4130. Crafted in stainless steel, this modern Daytona embodied over 16 years of continuous production. It features a 400-unit bezel and three-link "Easylink" bracelet, along with the model's signature contrasting registers with silver peripheral rings.

When unveiled at Baselworld 2016, the Rolex Daytona ref. 116508 marked the first time the iconic chronograph was crafted in lustrous yellow gold with an emerald green dial. Released alongside the ref. 116509 white gold model with blue dial, this flamboyant yellow gold variant instantly captured the attention of collectors. While precious metal Cosmograph Daytonas once sat idly in display cases, the green dialed ref. 116508 in yellow gold has emerged as a phenomenon. Its chameleon-like dial shifts from apple to forest green in different lighting, providing visual intrigue. The precious yellow gold case adds opulent brilliance. Not since the green “Beach” Daytonas has Rolex introduced such a vibrant and verdant aesthetic so fitting for their brand. Its popularity surged after being spotted on the wrist of renowned musician and watch aficionado John Mayer during a talk show. With extremely limited availability from boutiques and endless waiting lists, the ref. 116508 has become one of the most coveted Daytona references on the secondary market. With factory stickers still intact, the present example from circa 2019 offers collectors the chance to own this coveted reference in virtually brand-new condition.

The present Rolex Datejust ref. 69118 from circa 1985 features an extravagant sapphire-set bezel with a rare and highly attractive pavé diamond-set dial. Bedazzled with 11 sapphire-set indexes around the hours, this Rolex Datejust is easily one of the most desirable variant from the family. Furthermore, the condition for this timepiece is absolutely stunning. Extremely well-preserved with a sharp case and crisp hallmarks, the original green factory sticker remains intact. Presented with its original guarantee, this chic timepiece is complete with its original set of accessories including the floral tapestry presentation box.

While most would agree that the Rolex Explorer II ref. 16550 fitted with a white dial is one of the most interesting vintage sports wristwatch by Rolex from the 1980s, some examples feature a creamy patina developed on the dial due to age and the nature of the material. Developed at random, not all examples fitted with a white dial develops a creamy hue, making examples that do, highly rare. Initially introduced in 1985, the ref. 16550 was a transitional model of the Explorer II with a short production span of roughly four years. Featuring applied luminous white gold indexes, the successor ref. 16570 featured applied blackened surrounds indexes giving a different appeal. The present example Rolex Explorer II ref. 16550 features a rare “cream” dial from circa 1988 bearing an “R” serial. During the transitional period over a one and a half year, a rare batch of ref. 16550 would feature intriguingly blackened surrounds as its indexes before the reference completely phased out. A true delight, this cream dial features equally stunning lume plots that have aged in a uniform cream hue. The blackened surrounds have also aged with an attractive holographic patina within its blackness from oxidation. An extremely well-preserved example perhaps bought from a Japan voyage, it is further complete with its original accessories.

In production from 1989 to 2007, the Rolex GMT-Master II ref. 16710 replaced the former ref. 16760 retaining much of its desirable aesthetical attributes. With a production spanning 18 years, the reference witnessed minor transitional upgrades with the earliest examples featuring Tritium, then Luminova and later examples with Superluminova as luminous materials on the dial and hands. With a surge in demand by collectors in recent times, the Rolex ref. 16710 was released with three different types of bezel inserts, red/ blue (Pepsi), red/black (Coke) and black offering collectors’ options for their desirability. The present Rolex GMT-Master II ref. 16710 features a coke bezel from circa 1999 bears an A serial with a SWISS only dial that corresponds to the period.

In 1988, the reference 18239 was introduced with an upgraded caliber 3155. The newly introduced caliber allows the date and day to be adjusted via the crown with a quick-set feature. The present example encased in white gold and fitted with a briar root wood dial is a rare variant and a specimen of the fathomed artistry of Rolex’s dial creations. Often seen in yellow gold cases, the white gold variant is believed to have produced in much less quantities. Wood dials are extremely hard to work with as they are brittle and for dial makers to cut out apertures or the day and date without fracturing the material requires supreme artisanal craftsmanship to execute. This particular example is preserved in an impressive condition, with crisp hallmarks beneath the lugs and the green caseback sticker remains partially intact. Furthermore, the top of the lugs and caseback display crisp, milled finishes, attesting to the originality of the timepiece.

The Rolex Cosmograph Daytona has long been a fan favourite and even more so during the launch of the ref. 16500 series featuring for the first time, a self-winding caliber. Marking an important debut for the Daytona, the Zenith El Primero based cal. 4030 was only used in this particular series up until 2000 when Rolex released their new line of Daytona models featuring the firm’s first ever in-house self-winding cal. 4130. The present ref. 16519 is a showstopper with its head-turning hot pink ensemble. The Barbie-esque pink-mother-of-pearl dial is given a refreshing look as it is adorned with eight applied Arabic numerals in white gold that perfectly embodies sporty elegance. An example born in 1998 bearing a “U” serial, this pink lady would pave the way for the beloved “Beach” series debuted in the early 2000s with the array of hardstone dials. Today, these watches are rare collector’s items, and it is furthermore very rare to find a watch from this series that is very well preserved, like the present example, and accompanied with its original guarantee. A perfect timepiece for a seaside retreat, the present timepiece makes a stunning example amongst this season’s rare Daytonas.

Throughout the 1990s, Rolex noted that its iconic chronograph, with its rugged Oyster bracelet, was being worn frequently by ladies. In response, the brand released the ref. 16519 in 2000, a refined and more elegant version of the Daytona. This new aesthetic masterpiece was crafted in precious white gold and fitted with a graceful crocodile leather strap instead of the customary metal bracelet. Beauty now led the design as much as durability and performance. This particular ref. 16519 Daytona from circa 2000 contains one of the last Zenith El Primero cal. 4030, before Rolex switched to their in-house cal. 4130 chronograph movement in 2000. The beautiful white dial with Arabic numeral hour markers is transitional, as Rolex started phasing out Tritium in the late 1990s and replacing it with modern Luminova lume. As such, the "T" markings next to "Swiss Made" at 6 o'clock are no longer present. Offered in highly attractive overall condition and complete with its original presentation box, this watch embodies the refined elegance Rolex imbued into the Daytona line in 2000.

This refined 40mm platinum tourbillon chronograph model pays homage to the original design while maintaining a minimalist aesthetic for its dial. Through the sapphire caseback, the decorated movement takes center stage. The three bridges form the mainplate, supporting the tourbillon, barrel, and gear train in an architecturally elegant format. Circular graining adorns the bridges while the tourbillon cage is engraved by hand, showcasing Girard-Perregaux’s mastery of fine finishing.

Launched in 1999, collectors have widely regarded A.Lange & Söhne Datograph as one of the finest modern chronograph wristwatches produced by any firm. Since its re-establishment of manufacture, A. Lange & Söhne has been creating some of the most impressive timepieces executed to the highest quality. It features an in-house manual movement and is expertly finished throughout with Glashütte stripes and a signature hand-engraved balance cock. The oversized date window display particular to A. Lange & Söhne wristwatches inspired by the Dresden Semper Opera clock sits perfectly legible on the 12 o’clock position. The first generation of the Datograph features a 39mm diameter case without the power reserve indication giving the dial a clean and minimalist appeal. While early first generation Datograph features what collectors called the “METER” dials, production from 2005-2006 onwards sees a change of text update to “METERS” dial. Certainly more grammatically correct with the addition of the “S” like the present example, the first generation Dataograph were in production until 2011. In 2012, the firm upgraded the model featuring a more significant 41mm diameter case and implemented an up/down power reserve indication at 6 o’clock, featuring baton indexes instead of Roman numerals. The present example A. Lange & Söhne Datograph in pink gold from circa 2011 belongs to the production batch before the model was upgraded to the Datograph Up/Down. Complete with its original guarantee and presentation box, this is undoubtedly an example that will garner much interest from collectors of fine chronograph wristwatches.

Simple to operate and finished to the high standards of the Glashütte based manufacturer, the Lange 1 Time Zone differs slightly from your regular dual time wristwatch. Instead A. Lange & Söhne finessed the dual time wristwatch by showcasing the additional time zone in an entirely separate dial. Fitted with a city ring that is activated via a pusher at 8 o’clock, once pressed, the additional time zone adjusts itself to the city indicated by an arrow positioned on the dial of the additional time zone at 5 o’clock. Cased in yellow gold and paired exuberantly with an almost pale champagne dial, the present example is a wonderful discontinued iteration from circa 2007. Complete with its full set of accessories, this handsome timepiece preserved in excellent overall condition is the perfect travel companion.

The art of horology has long been fascinated by the equation of time, which displays the difference in minutes between solar time as shown on a sundial and the constant mean time we use today. This complex astronomical indication depends on an oval cam, calculated according to the sun’s daily declination and rotating once a year. As the cam turns, a hand following its contours indicates the equation of time, while further indications of sunrise and sunset throughout the year rely on a similar cam designed for the wearer’s locality. Vacheron Constantin’s expertise in such refined complications is evident in the Traditionnelle Grandes Complications ref. 88172. The gracefully shaped equation of time cam rotates smoothly between 10 and 11 o’clock, while retrograde hands mark sunrise and sunset at 8 and 4 o’clock, unique to the wearer’s latitude. Above 6 o’clock, the tourbillon carriage shaped like Vacheron Constantin’s Maltese Cross emblem rotates elegantly once per minute. The perpetual calendar indications are laid out in perfect symmetry, with days, months, and dates at 9, 12 and 3 o’clock, and a leap year indicator discreetly placed at 1 o’clock. Despite the mechanical intricacy, the cal. 2253 delivers an exceptional 14-day power reserve. This remarkable feat is achieved through twin mainspring barrels, with the remaining reserve displayed on the sapphire caseback. The silvery dial provides elegant contrast with the pink gold case, while engine-turned centres on each subdial add visual depth. Pairing refinement with complexity, this exceptional timepiece preserved in barely worn condition demonstrates Vacheron Constantin’s peerless ingenuity and mastery of grand complications.

The Patek Philippe World Time has a rich heritage dating back to the early 1930s when it was first introduced by Louis Cottier, the father of the world time watch. From the early ref. 96HU to the present ref. 5131J, the World Time epitomizes Patek Philippe’s flair for innovation and elegance. One distinguishing feature of the ref. 5131 is the signature “Patek Philippe Geneve” elegantly engraved in italic script on the bezel. Taking center stage is the immaculate and vibrant cloisonné enamel world map, a testament to the extraordinary skills of Patek Philippe’s master enamellers. The intricate art of cloisonné requires meticulous attention to detail at every stage, with the slightest distortion considered an imperfection. With only two to three enamellers capable of producing these dials, just 30-40 of each metal version can be made annually, making the ref. 5131 one of the most coveted timepieces ever created. The ref. 5131 was first produced in 2008 in yellow gold, followed by white gold in 2009 and pink gold in 2014. As part of the inaugural yellow gold series, this ref. 5131J features a world map depicting the Americas, Europe and Africa, surrounded by beautiful gold ribbons. Succeeding the renowned ref. 5131J-001, the present ref. 5131J-014 enjoyed a remarkably brief production run of less than two years before being discontinued, rendering it a scarce find for collectors.
While paying homage to its forerunner, the ref. 5131J-014 featured subtle design evolutions that distinguished the model. Three cities on the cloisonné enamel world map were altered - Caracas made way for La Paz, while Moscow and Dubai swapped positions with Moscow ultimately reappearing. Additionally, the rich hues of the enamel dials are said to have become even more vibrant and eye-catching. With the skills to create these ornate dials possessed by only a handful of Patek Philippe’s master artisans, barely 30 to 40 examples in each precious metal are handcrafted annually. Their rarity is thus ensured. For the collector, the opportunity to acquire the ref. 5131J-014 is particularly special given its brief window of production. With the reference no longer available from Patek Philippe, examples reaching the open market are seldom seen. Its dazzling enamel work and intricate world time mechanism will continue to captivate and delight for generations to come. Offered in brand new single factory sealed condition and complete with its Certificate of Origin, presentation box and hang tag, this rare and discontinued ref. 5131J-014 presents a compelling opportunity for connoisseurs to acquire an important piece of Patek Philippe’s craftsmanship.

Launched in 2006, the Patek Philippe reference 5960 is celebrated by collectors for housing their first in-house automatic chronograph movement 28-520/521, in addition to being their first chronograph wristwatch with the annual calendar complication. Initially released in platinum, variants in pink gold, white gold and stainless steel were later added to the production. The present example features a lustrous pink gold case perfectly complementing the alluring brushed grey dial. What is great about the annual calendar complication is that it requires only one correction every year in February, making it a more userfriendly version than the regular calendar which requires adjustment five times a year, as well as a more accessible version of the perpetual calendar. Further equipped with the flyback chronograph, the present watch features an attractive sub-dial at the six o’clock with the 12-hour counter surrounded by a 60-minute counter with red and blue numerals and hands. Beneath the centre of the counter, sits a small aperture which shows the day and night indicator, resonating harmoniously with the subtle power reserve indicator beneath the beautiful date display at the 12 o’clock of the dial. It is precisely these minute details which makes the reference 5960 a stunning timepiece. Preserved in excellent overall condition and accompanied with presentation box, this present watch is a gem that should not be missed by any wise collectors.

Moving on to the dial, the celestial centre with moon phases is highlighted by a bronze 24-hour ring, along with the 24 cities that encircle it. As a nod to Patek Philippe’s hometown, the city of Paris on the standard issues has been replaced with Geneva. The world of watch collecting is no longer a boy’s club, and women’s interest in horology has grown significantly over the last 20 years.

The gorgeous semi-skeletonised dial with PVD-coating has incredible depth, with a vermillion center surrounded by diamonds. The rotating sapphire disc displays the date against a white background for clear legibility. The RM007 caliber incorporates a bi-directional automatic movement with a rotor segment distinctive to the model. The 18K gold rotor with transparent PVD coated weight compartment is mesmerizing, filled with over 100 free-flowing gold micro-beads to reduce shock. Aviation-grade titanium screws allow precise tightening control during assembly. Preserved in excellent condition with its full set of accessories, this historically significant and glamorous RM007 with its feminine codes is perfect for discerning ladies who admire beauty and mechanical perfection equally.

The present ref. 15452OR in pink gold is a statement of contemporary elegance sized at 37mm for a lady’s wrist. Its “grande tapisserie” dial dazzles in slate grey, with pink gold accents and a diamond-set 12 o’clock index. Furthermore, the diamond-set bezel, lugs and buckle add panache to the ensemble but without ever appearing excessive— a flawless execution of signature Royal Oak style on a smaller scale. At the heart beats Audemars Piguet’s self-winding cal. 3120, a paragon of precision and finishing. Its open worked gold rotor is a work of art, allowing glimpses of the movement’s hand-finished bridges and Côtes de Genève motif. This radiant example keeps its own rhythm, channeling imagination that has rendered Audemars Piguet peerless.

This limited-edition Altiplano Piaget was released in celebration of the 2014 Chinese Year of the Horse, numbered 3 of 38. This marks one zodiac of the Metiers d’Art Collection named a ‘Mythical Journey by Piaget’ which was inspired by the journeys of the Silk Route and Spice Route. The ultra-thin 38mm case is presented in rose gold, with 78 brilliant-cut diamonds on its bezel, encapsulating a magnificent cloisonné enamel dial. The Ferghana horse was chosen as the main feature of the dial, as Piaget was enamoured not only with the grace and passion of the creature, but also its legendary power and speed. The Ferghana was one of China’s earliest imports during the Han dynasty coming from the West and were made legendary in the arts for their divine and ‘blood sweating’ nature. The monochrome imagery of the horse with its solemn eyes and flared nostrils is complemented by a fiery mane decorated with golden fringes, evoking vivid emotion. At 6 o’clock of the dial, one can recognize the signature of Anita Porchet, one of Switzerland’s most respected and renown enamellers. The cloisonné enamel technique is completed by the deposit of material into the empty windows separated by gold wire fixed in a distinct pattern, before a firing and glazing process. Each hollow is dedicated to a separate colour, and the firing process can take several attempts to achieve the desired potency. The timepiece is powered by the manual-wound Piaget Altiplano 430P movement and jewels, has a 43-hour power reserve, and is finished with a circular Côtes de Genève. It is complete with its warranty and original accessories. The artistry and detail behind this rare piece make for a special addition to a collection of an equestrian lover or to commemorate one’s zodiac year.

Adored by collectors due to its diverse spectrum of vibrant colours offered, the Rolex Stella Day-Date offers a fun and contemporary appeal to the firm’s robust luxury President’s model. Derived originally from a company by the name of Stella based in Châtelaine and Geneva, the company was responsible for supplying Rolex with a special type of lacquer used in these rare and exotic dials. Released in 1978, the Day-Date ref. 18038 was the successor to the iconic ref. 1803 featuring for the first time a robust sapphire crystal replacing the former Plexiglas. Another practical upgrade was the introduction of a quickset function for the date through its new cal. 3055. The reference is also one of which where these rare and exotic Stella dials were fitted upon. The present example Rolex Day-Date ref. 18038 from circa 1988 with an “R” serial features a wonderfully paired burgundy dégradé lacquered dial where the exotic reddish hue intensifies towards the edge of the dial. Against its yellow gold case, the appeal is simply sublime further enhanced with 10 diamond-set indexes. Offered with its full set of accessories and in attractive overall condition, the present example is surely a nice piece to wear casually on the weekend.

Among Rolex’s legendary watch models, the Day-Date stands apart as both a pioneering icon and enduring emblem of luxury. Launched in 1956 as the brand’s first self-winding, waterproof, calendar wristwatch, the Day-Date was a groundbreaking integration of technical innovation and elegant aesthetics. The Day-Date earned its eminent nickname “the President” after being spotted on the wrists of numerous U.S. presidents, dignitaries, and heads of state. However, its sophisticated design and refined craftsmanship possess a universal appeal that transcends status symbols. While staying true to its signature aesthetics over the decades, Rolex has introduced an astounding diversity of Day-Date iterations through creative implementations of dial, case, and size variations. From exotic dials to precious metals and gems, the Day-Date collection showcases Rolex’s unrelenting ingenuity and versatility as a manufacturer. The present yellow gold Day-Date ref. 18388 is a shining exemplar of Rolex’s expertise. Its sleek 36mm Oyster case retains the collection’s iconic profile, while the diamond-set bezel, lugs, dial and ruby-set hour ring add sophistication befitting the moniker “the President.” The bejeweled dial provides an elegant contrast against the glittering diamonds and warm yellow gold that has developed an attractive oxidation over time. Preserved in attractive overall condition, this dazzling Day-Date from circa 1991 offers collectors a chance to own an emblem of luxury, prestige, and innovation.

In 2011, Patek Philippe released the ref. 5270 in white gold to replace the ref. 5970. A milestone for the firm, the new reference featured Patek Philippe’s very first in-house designed and built calibre 29-535 PS Q stamped with Patek Philippe stamp. In 2014, the firm released few rare examples of the ref. 5271P with various gem set variants, including emerald, ruby, sapphire and diamonds. The reference was the first to feature a glossy black lacquer dial constructed in twelve layers. They differ from the second series examples of the regular ref. 5270, the dial no longer features the “double chin” at 6 O’clock. The present example set with rubies is one of the most desirable examples of the reference as the pigeon blood red contrasts extremely well against the glossy black dial giving the reference a vibrant appeal. Presented in single-sealed condition and accompanied by the full set of accessories, the present ref. 5271/12P-001 is a superb compilation of haute horlogerie and jewellery, with its alluring baguette-cut Ruby bezel and index at 12 O’clock, adding a dynamic flair to this model.

F.P. JOURNE — An extremely rare, highly coveted and commemorative platinum 38mm diameter wristwatch with tourbillon regulator, deadbeat seconds, remontoir d’égalité, power reserve indication, certificate and presentation box, one of a limited edition of 5 pieces made to commemorate the opening of the F. P. Journe Boutique in Beijing
Property from an Important Asian Collector 重要亞洲私人收藏
Revered as one of the most important independent master watchmakers of the 21st century, the creations from François-Paul Journe since 1991 were built from one man’s vision. A vision that does not budge to norms, a creation that cannot be identify in commonality with any brands but only F. P. Journe. The upbringing of Monsieur Journe and his claim to fame now needs no further introduction, in fact his perseverance and innovations sets the blueprints and inspiration to the industry all over the world. From his early marvels such as the Souscription Tourbillon, Chronomètre à Résonance, Octa Collection, Centigraphe, to the more recent Sonnerie Souveraine, Astronomic Souveraine or the latest release of the ingenious FFC that puts collectors in awe, the success of F. P. Journe though ground-breaking, certainly was not achieved overnight. With his first timepiece showcasing as a member of the Académie Horlogère des Créateurs Indépendants (AHCI) booth in Baselworld in 1991, collectors scratched their heads as they laid their eyes on his unfamiliar creation. Staying true to Journe’s beliefs and the independence to make choices that stands clear from the consideration of financial supports from shareholders, surely but slowly, the empire of the independent F. P. Journe brand started to make its mark globally. The first pocket of purists from Japan began to recognize Journe’s approach of haute horlogerie, and became one of the most important and dedicated supporters from the brand’s early days. In September of 2003, F. P Journe opened its first Salon of Montres Journe in the heart of Tokyo’s Omotesando district, equivalent of the Parisian St. Germain-des-Prés, the first boutique sits a stone’s throw away from the serene Nezu museum. Fast forward two years later with surging demands of early supporters, more boutiques started to emerge across the globe to cater their growing presence. In 2006, the brand sets foot in America for its first time with the salon in Boca Raton, Florida, and landed in Hong Kong the same year. Followed by inauguration of the boutique salon in Geneva in 2007, Paris in 2008, and New York in 2009. In 2010, the brand opened its doors as the 7th boutique in Beijing, China. The opening of the Journe Boutique in Beijing was an important moment for the firm as they expand their expertise and exceptional craft to the largest up and coming community of collectors from Asia. With a prime location located in the Yintaï Centre, it was only a 2-minute walk away from Tienanmen square. With the anticipation of the new boutique that will be opening in Mayfair London soon, collectors might just have one more boutique addition to add to their list.

And speaking about boutique edition by F. P. Journe, 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. Often made as celebratory milestones of new expansion or anniversary of Salons, the Tourbillon Souverain TN (Tourbillon Nouveau) is amongst one of the most favoured model. Introduced during 2003 in the wake of a new era of Journe innovation, the TN cal. 1403 crafted in 18K pink gold movement ushered out the brass movements that were in use. Sized at 14-ligne and developed in 2003 hence cal. 1403, the new upgrade from brass cal. 1498 features the integrated seconde morte (deadbeat seconds) within the constant force mechanism of the Tourbillon Souverain TN. With an estimated 15 years of production run, only about 850 examples of the Tourbillon Nouveau were made. Early transitional examples of the model were both available in 38mm and 40mm diameter case. Discontinued in the smaller case size from the catalogue, the 38mm diameter models are considered the origin of F. P. Journe, so important, that Journe released the Stainless Steel 38mm set of five iconic models including the Tourbillon Souverain in 2015 to commemorate its discontinuation. (The set is also available in this auction.) Too often, the thing you want most is the one thing you can’t have. And that really resonated in the collector’s circle together with the booming new pool of watch enthusiasts. Considered more elegantly sized, since then the demand of 38mm timepieces from the brand has surged to all time high. THIS LOT IS A PREMIUM LOT

P. Journe Boutique in Beijing
Over the years, only a handful of Journe Tourbillon Souverain TN are produced in celebration of the milestones of his boutiques. Starting from 2006 with the 5th anniversary of the Tokyo boutique, the Tourbillon Souverain TN cased in titanium have a distinct look thanks to the cool of the ruthenium-coated white gold. Almost a gun-metal grey complemented with pink gold accents throughout the dial, hands and crown, the two-tone commemorative piece was a limited edition of 5 pieces only. This exact design was furthermore produced as limited boutique edition for other locations: Boca Raton (Lot 1005 in this auction), Hong Kong and Geneva, resulting a total of 20 examples made in this configuration. According to our research of examples that have appeared publicly, they were all cased in 40mm diameter. Besides the mythical piece unique Paris Boutique edition in a 40mm diameter platinum case and fitted with a Lapis lazuli dial, this leaves us the most daring and vibrant edition made for boutiques, the China edition from 2010. Bright, bold in fiery red, to commemorate the opening of the Beijing boutique F.P. Journe created an exclusive and extremely rare, limited edition series of Tourbillon Souverain (TN) featuring a red lacquered dial displaying the 5 stars as seen on the national flag of the People’s Republic of China representing the 5 regions of the PRC replacing the hour units for the power reserve indication as seen in regular examples of the model. And we dare to say, this was the first ever Tourbillon Souverain to feature a vibrant twist of red. With the brand’s involvement in China, the trend has changed where more and more collectors from the region are starting to admire the intricacy and the difference between haute horology versus mass-produced luxury watches, which proved Journe’s shared vision with George Daniels to focus on creating nonutilitarian watches on point. To our knowledge, only 2 examples from the limited edition of 5 pieces have ever appeared in the market, both sized at 40mm diameter, PHILLIPS had the pleasure of auctioning the first one in Hong Kong in 2022 with a staggering result of 8.72 million. The second example paired with a bracelet was sold at auction at 2023 for 9.45 million. Fresh-to-the-market and cherished by the original owner, the present example F.P. Journe Tourbillon Souverain “Chine 2010” is the third one to surface in the market. Even better, it is the only-known to be identified with a 38mm diameter platinum case. Preserved in absolutely stunning condition accompanied by its original accessories, the “Chine 2010 38” with uber rarity was requested by the astute collector in regards to have a more elegantly proportioned case for the watch. And indeed, it was. A testament to the importance of the Chinese market, a piece of horological art and the most iconic Journe complicated wristwatch, the present example ticks all the boxes. PHILLIPS is extremely humbled and excited to be entrusted by the original owner of the present timepiece to offer this rare and exciting wristwatch at our Hong Kong Watch Auction: XVII.

Back in 2020, when both MB&F and H. Moser & Cie celebrated their 15th anniversaries, they joined hands to create the Legacy Machine 101. In respect to the H. Moser & Cie aesthetics of “back to basics”, MB&F has removed their logo and subdials from the LM101 and adopted stainless steel 316, which is rarely used by MB&F, to embrace the legendary H. Moser & Cie sunburst fumé dial, which takes more than 200 steps to make and is imbued with the most astonishing gradient colour effect. The dial is further enhanced by the clever and simple display of the hours, minutes display and power reserve. The LM101 also boasts an in-house movement that was designed with movement aesthetics and finishing specifications by the renowned Finnish independent watchmaker Kari Voutilainen. The Moser edition features a double hairspring mechanism visible on the 14mm flying balance wheel which achieves great isochronism to its oscillation. The transparent case back also reveals a set of gold chatons and wheels amidst the black NAC-coated bridges with refined Côtes de Genève and chamfered edges. The present watch is extremely rare and is the 5th one produced in a run of only 15 pieces with the red fumé dials (other dial options include funky blue, cosmic green and aqua blue, each produced in a limited edition of only 15 pieces). It is preserved in impeccable condition and accompanied by full set of accessories. This truly magnificent yet minimalistic wristwatch undoubtedly deserves to find home to a collector with an eye for timeless beauty.

Come rain or shine, the Breva Génie 01 is the world’s first wristwatch that can forecast the weather debuted at Baselworld in 2013. A fully mechanical marvel expressed in an openworked design, the dial reveals a wealth of information to inform its wearer of not only the time, but the altitude, power reserve, and barometer (instrument for measuring air pressure). Sized at a massive 44.7mm diameter, a total of 110 pieces were produced for the Génie 01 with 55 pieces each in white and pink gold like the present example. A heck of a complicated watch, this beast is animated by the proprietary movement developed exclusively for Breva by Jean-Francois Mojon and Chronode. A total of 405 components featuring a dual aneroid capsules measuring air pressure and a spiral anti-vibration spring gives this movement a total of 65 hours of power reserve. A complicated timepiece operated with a user-friendly approach in mind, the functions can be operated by three dual-purpose crowns. Setting time and winding the watch (anti-clockwise) can simply be accessed via the crown at 9 o’ clock. The barometric pressure scale can be adjusted by the knurled ring, while the pusher allows you to adjust the position of the altitude indication positioned from 9 to 12 o’clock near the edge of the dial. The remaining crown allows the wearer to lock or unlock an air valve to equalize the air pressure. A red indicator marked SEALED on the dial warns the wearer when the valve is unlocked. More than telling time and definitely a fun and impressive timepiece, the present example in pink gold is numbered 18 from the limited edition and is accompanied by its full set of accessories including a large aneroid barometer presentation box.

The previous model, Histoire de Tourbillon No. 6, included a tri-axial tourbillon and two independent hour indicators - itself a remarkable achievement. However, the new Histoire de Tourbillon No. 7 elevates the complexity even further with its dual biaxial tourbillons. The watchmakers explored various designs before settling on this technically challenging but visually striking layout. Encased in a 50.9mm white gold case, the dial has a skeletonized design that divides into two sections. The right side houses the hour and minute hands in a pyramid-cut reading area with tilted hour markers. The left features the two tourbillon cages, which rotate on different axes. A red anodized aluminium strip surrounds the tourbillons and extends to the power reserve indicator. Designed by Greubel Forsey, the cal. HW4502 movement’s plates and bridges are made of satin-finished titanium and stippled titanium. With 507 components, the movement has fewer parts than its predecessor but manages to accommodate the dual biaxial tourbillons. Using a spherical differential to optimize their concurrent operation, the two tourbillons improve rate stability through their multiple positions relative to gravity. Limited to only 10 pieces, this novel dual biaxial tourbillon mechanism underscores Harry Winston’s creativity and mastery of haute horlogerie. The present example numbered 2 is preserved in attractive condition and accompanied by its full set of accessories.

The CPCP models are truly collectible, with production of many pieces being limited to 100, and those not explicitly numbered were produced in no more than 500 pieces. Apart from the Tank Cintrée, models are signed Cartier Paris in recognition of the heritage pieces. The designs are perfect blends of vintage Cartier and contemporary watchmaking. The Cartier Monopoussoir exudes timeless Cartier style, embodying an elegance through its curved, tortoise-inspired case. The CPCP edition was introduced in 1999 in three different metals including white gold, yellow gold, and pink gold. This white gold version is fitted with a guilloché dial signed Cartier Paris, with blued steel hands and black roman numerals. Its white caseback is engraved with No. 004. As the jeweler had focused on appealing to the mass market during the quartz period, Cartier turned to external suppliers specializing in mechanical movements. With the double swivel pin that activates the central wheel of the Calibre 045MC, the thud of the second hand found in most other chronographs is removed, which allows for a smooth operation of the movement. The chronograph uses the single crown on its rounded side to start, stop, and reset the watch. This Cartier Monopoussoir Tortue is stunning in both visual and technical aspects and is a beautiful contemporary version of a Cartier heritage piece. It comes with its original and rare CPCP presentation box, red booklet and certificate signed Cartier London. With a mix of the old and the new, it is a breathtaking piece that tells a story of its own.

The pusher at 2 o’clock acts as an on/off activation for the chime, and the 4 o’clock pusher can summon the chime on demand regardless whether the silent mode is activated or not. Extremely attractive this is certainly a playful timepiece for any collection.

Daniel Roth is a renowned independent watchmaker respected by the watch community for his extraordinary skill and erudition. As a fourth-generation watchmaker from Nice in France, after beginning his career with Audemars Piguet in the late 1960s and then joining Breguet in 1973, Daniel Roth ventured to starting his own eponymous brand in 1988. He contributed tremendously to the revival of the Breguet workshop, including inventing the first ever perpetual wristwatch for the brand. Known to be a faithful disciple to the work of the legendary Abraham-Louis Breguet, Daniel Roth’s timepieces are a fantastic combination of heritage and invention imbued with his very own approach to art-mechanics. Encased in Daniel Roth’s signature double-ellipse case, the present timepiece is an excellent example in stainless steel. One of the most appealing facets to Daniel Roth’s watches is undoubtedly the stunning hand-finished details. The pinstripe guilloché pattern on the background of the dial is spectacular. Accentuated by the classic Breguet motif, delicate filet sauté guilloché are found surrounding the exquisite cabochons dotted adjacent to the Roman numerals. Even finer filet sauté guilloché patterns decorates the three registers at 3, 6 and 9 o’clock. On top of the dial, the flamed blued hands, reminiscent of the “pomme évidée” hands (or simply “Breguet hands”) but in the classic Roth arrow style, are a superb accent to entirety of the dial. The present watch further houses the DR500 calibre based on the famous Zenith El Primero movement, also used by the very first Rolex Daytona. Fortunately, the transparent case back allows one to witness the movement in its full glory. Preserved in attractive condition, the present watch is a prime example of Daniel Roth’s finest craftmanship.

The lavish Rolex King Midas, conceived in the late 1960s, remains a star-studded celebrity darling. The first ref. 9630 was the bold timepiece of choice for Elvis Presley, “The King of Rock n’ Roll”, and John Wayne, “The Duke”. Its daring design sprang from the brilliant mind of Gerald Genta, the iconic watchmaker behind the Patek Philippe Nautilus and Audemars Piguet Royal Oak. Drawing inspiration from the Greek myth, the King Midas architecture reflects his legendary “Midas touch” - the ability to turn anything to gold. The inaugural King Midas references 9630, 3580, and 4315 pioneered a singular case design, with striking asymmetrical lines evoking the majesty of the Parthenon. Accordingly, its ribbed bracelet forms from a single ingot. This Hellenic theme established the Midas aesthetic, though Rolex would later reinterpret the model as part of the refined Cellini collection. This particular King Midas ref. 4316, part of the Cellini collection, dazzles in white gold with an exotic lapis lazuli dial. Preserved in excellent overall condition, this rare and distinctive timepiece stands out as a treasure amongst vintage Rolex models.

The first Gondolo wristwatches emerged in the 1920s, culminating in the release of the exquisite ref. 5098 in 2007.

Cartier has always been associated with exquisite craftsmanship and elegant designs that have for a century attracted royalty, movie stars, sports celebrities and everyday clientele. Their jewelry and timepieces became recognizable in the market, and one of the most innovative wristwatches was the “Tank”. Introduced in 1917, the design took its inspiration from the top view of the very first Renault military tank vehicle deployed that same year. Today, it has become an icon in haute horlogerie for its classic design and wearability. Over the ensuing 100 years, the basic foundation of the watch has remained the same, but with changing fashions and styles, so too did the Tank watch. In 1921, Cartier introduced the Tank Cintrée a long slender wristwatch with gracefully arching case that measured a dramatic 46mm long by 23mm wide. The design broke the mold for the typical round watch. In 1989, Cartier updated the elegance of the Cintrée with the release of the Tank Americaine, a modern wristwatch with stronger, more masculine dimensions than the Cintrée. A milestone in the evolution of the Tank, the Tank Americaine was the very first curved Tank watch from Cartier to be designed with a water resistant case. The present example is cased in platinum fitted with a white guilloché dial that displays Cartier’s traditional Roman numerals and secret signature at the 7 o’clock. Accompanied by its original certificate and accessories, this is an exciting opportunity for all collectors to own a noteworthy variant of the famous Tank that has been worn by kings, queens, and the Hollywood elite for decades.

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 groundbreaking 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 aestheticly modern thanks to its deceptively complex yet elegantly minimal pared-down dial. The present example, numbered 38 of the 69 pieces made in platinum, is in exceptional condition and is further accompanied by its original accessories. 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.

Launched in 2016, the Reverso Tribute Gyrotourbillon is JaegerLeCoultre’s fourth attempt at their signature bi-axial tourbillon and the second that was fitted in a reversible swivelling case. Beautifully proportioned, the present model is much more compact, modestly sized, and wearable in comparison to the impressive Reverso Gyrotourbillon 2 of 2008. Like the first generation, the outer cage of the tourbillon revolves once every 60 seconds, also serving as a seconds hand, explaining the 60-second track around the tourbillon aperture. This rotates on the same plane as the dial, while the inner cage rotates perpendicular to the dial. Requiring only a brisk 12.6 seconds to complete a revolution, compared to 24 seconds before, the inner cage all the action on the dial. On the reverse of the present Gyrotourbillon, the dial is more elaborate, featuring skeletonised bridges covered in a simple, straight-stroke engraving. The time displayed on the back mirrors the time on the front and could be easily mistaken as a second time zone. Instead, at the top right corner a blue and gold disc indicates the time in another locale. Offered as an exclusive limited edition of 75 pieces, the present Reverso Tribute Gyrotourbillon is numbered 33 and is delivered in excellent overall condition with its original accessories. This complicated yet compact platinum multi-axis tourbillon dual-time wristwatch will certainly appeal to connoisseurs of hyper-technical horological inventions.

As we celebrate the 60th anniversary of the Rolex Daytona this year, it is the perfect timing to revisit the watch’s extraordinary history. The unlimited possibilities of the phenomenal chronograph have become a true global sensation and captured the hearts of generations of watch enthusiasts. A timeless design that embodies functionality, design innovation and history, sculpted with rigorous attention to detail and precision, the reference 16520, unveiled in 1988, is the company’s first Daytona to house an automatic movement, and marks a very important chapter in Rolex’s history. The present timepiece possesses a fascinating and highly collectable conceptual “test dial”, accentuating and elucidating the very essence of the Perpetual Daytona with a Zenith-based production. The dial of a watch is nothing less than a true métier d’art with great artistic expertise and authenticity. Stepping at the forefront between the wearer and the mechanical movement, the dial communicates all information with strict legibility requirements, hours, minutes, seconds, date and meters within one canvas no more than 30mm. The choice of typography and unobstructed balance demands huge impact in the performance of a watch, especially for tools such as the legendary Daytona.
Widely recognized as “Mr. Daytona”, Mr. Pucci Papaleo, the Italian scholar, collector-turned-author began his study of watches before this topic was broadly considered an area of study. Prior to his focused expertise on Daytona, he was interested in early Rolex and Patek Philippe chronographs, by the end of the 1980s, his attention and appetite grew stronger and stronger on chronographs of the Swiss manufacturer, Rolex, and particularly, the Daytona. Regarded as one of, if not “the”, most influential man in the world of vintage Daytona, his intricate study and scholarship are orchestrated in multiple opuses such as “The Ultimate Rolex Daytona” and the “Daytona Perpetual” that is delivered with the present lot, because the dial of the present watch belongs to the group of COSC dials that Mr. Pucci Papaleo photographed in 2018 for the publication of the “Daytona Perpetual” book, which features similar details of the example that is illustrated in the book on page 119.
Striped down to the bare minimum, the white canvas laid important grounds for the core foundation of the three-registered chronograph. According to scholars, only three variants of such are known, which all belong to the Zenith-based production of the cal. 4030. Fabricated for deep studies and professional usage by the firm for chronometer testing in forming the holistic vision of the Daytona, these dials are of extreme rarity and are true “wonder” of its kind.
Presented in an extremely attractive condition, the present lot is further sanctified by a verification written and signed by the scholar himself, Mr. Pucci Papaleo, stating that the present dial is a similar example of the one illustrated in the “Daytona Perpetual” book, confirming the esteemed Singer provenance. Let us seize upon this very rare opportunity to marvel at the magnificent Zenith Daytona once again and to celebrate a new dawn for this extraordinary timepiece.

The IWC Big Pilot’s Watch has evolved from its functional military origins into a horological icon. Its journey began in 1940 when IWC produced 1,000 oversized “B-Uhr” navigators’ watches for the military. With their distinctive dials and pocket watch movements, these tool watches served a specific purpose. In 2002, IWC revived the design as a modern luxury watch. Named the “Grosse Fliegeruhr” or Big Pilot’s Watch, the 46.2mm model ref. 5002 paid homage to its 1940s ancestor while incorporating a new automatic movement with eight-day power reserve. This bold yet legible watch was cutting-edge yet traditional, both contemporary and historically-inspired. The Big Pilot’s Watch was subtly redesigned in 2006 as ref. IW5004. Numerals at 2 and 4 o’clock were partially shown, the 9 numeral disappeared, the strap upgraded to alligator. The movement also improved. This made the watch more versatile and refined. The present ref. IW500401 from circa 2009 features a sleek matte black dial with seven days of power reserve. From its military origins to a modern luxury icon, the IWC Big Pilot’s Watch has earned its place as a legend in its own time.

The Jules Audemars collection stands as a paean to one of the esteemed maison’s founding fathers. In 1982, Audemars Piguet unveiled this line to honor the inimitable Jules-Louis Audemars, and to uphold the haute horlogerie of Le Brassus. Timepieces in the Jules Audemars family are graced with sinuous lines and fulsome curves, enhanced by artisanal finishes of the highest caliber. A spirit of subtlety and consistency prevails across the range, with an air of quiet distinction in the smallest details. The present Jules Audemars Repetition Minutes Quantieme Perpetual represents the ne plus ultra of the Jules Audemars canon. Debuted in 1997 and produced through 1999 in severely limited quantities—a mere 17 examples in total: 11 in white gold, 5 in pink gold and 1 in platinum— this reference embodies the technical prowess and brilliance in complication for which Audemars Piguet is legend. Ensconced within a 39mm white gold case lavished with mirrorpolished and satin-brushed surfaces, the self-winding cal. 2866Q movement comes vibrantly to life when the minute repeater mechanism is engaged. Through a transparent caseback, one may observe each immaculately finished component, from the Côtes de Genève motif to the chased and engraved steel parts, gears and hammers that chime the hours, quarter-hours and minutes on request.
The perpetual calendar, displayed against a black dial with guilloché hour ring, indicates moon phases and leap years in the French manner with cultivated restraint. This harmony of midnight black and white gold once again demonstrates the art of sublime contrast achieved solely in Le Brassus. Offered in attractive overall condition with a clean and melodious tone, the present example awaits an owner who will relish its complexities whilst imbibing a fine vintage. The Jules Audemars minute repeater perpetual calendar is a timepiece to be savored—a tribute to the visionary for whom it was named, and a glimpse into the rarefied world of Audemars Piguet at the apex of artistry.

Taking inspiration from the greatest depths of the Oceans and its most celebrated writer Jules Verne, Gerald Genta designed, in 1976, a watch that would become the horological icon of the 21st century. Named Nautilus after the submarine described in Verne’s book Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Seas, the watch shares its curves with the ones of the portholes of transatlantic ocean liners. Its ‘Jumbo’ case with wide flat bezel, integrated link bracelet, and ultra-thin automatic movement had a masculine, sporty aesthetic that was revolutionary compared to the smaller dressy gold mechanical watches of the time. Before being succeeded by the reference 3700/011 with a tapered bracelet, the original Nautilus reference 3700/001 was in production until 1981 and featured a straight bracelet, like the present example. Early examples of the reference are fitted with broader 16mm bracelets, while later examples are updated with narrower bracelets measuring 14mm at the end. Framed in a two-tone yellow gold and stainless steel case, the present watch embodies to perfection the aesthetic cues of the 1980s: statement colours with playfulness. Its gold inner links adds flair, sophistication and suave cool to an already iconic model. Neither was craftmanship and quality left to fate. Its dark bleu dial was handmade with utmost precision by Stern Frères with engraved stripes to achieve a uniform ribbed appeal. Furthermore, the present example is beautifully preserved with a rigid and tight bracelet as well as all its original accessories. This timepiece will surely become a shining and prominent piece in its new owner’s collection.

Among Patek Philippe’s legendary Nautilus lineage, the ref. 3800 holds a special place. Produced from 1981 to 2006, this 37.5mm mid-sized model remained discreetly in the shadow of its larger stablemates, the iconic ref. 3700 and modern ref. 5711. But recently this refined classic has seen a surge in collector appreciation for its versatility, compact elegance, and status as the archetypal luxury sports watch for both men and women. This particular example from circa 1995 displays all the warm patina of a well-loved vintage Nautilus. Its aged tritium plots have become warm yellow, beautifully complementing the deep blue dial. The case showcases a mix of polished and brushed finishes, with the conforming integrated bracelet that defines Gerald Genta’s design. Complete with its original certificate, the present ref. 3800 is evocative of an era when the Nautilus was still niche and exclusive. Before the hype, before the waiting lists. For the Patek Philippe collector who remembers the Nautilus before it became an institution, this watch is a portal back to those halcyon days.

One does not have to be a watch enthusiast to recognise the Nautilus and be a fan of it. Released in 2006, the ref. 5800 was launched with other important milestone contemporary Nautilus models, such as the ref. 5711, 5980 and 5712, marking the return of the coveted mid-sized variant, previously known as the ref. 3800. This reference is a transitional model that combines the elements of the past and present and was only produced for a year. Encased in stainless steel, the ref. 5800 is a rare bird that retains its timeless aesthetic of a monobloc case with an integrated sapphire caseback. The 38mm case of the present model is slightly larger than the fun-sized original, which featured a 37.5mm diameter case. Keeping its signature blued ribbed dial, the firm’s in-house movement is the cal. 330 SC equipped with a Geneva seal. The present Nautilus ref. 5800 from 2006 is offered in excellent overall condition with Certificate of Origin and accessories. Furthermore the manufacture date is confirmed by the Patek Philippe extract from the archives. This is the ideal opportunity for collectors of rare and prominent timepieces to acquire one of the most exotic stainless steel Nautilus models ever produced.

PATEK PHILIPPE — An incredibly rare and attractive platinum wristwatch with date, center seconds, bracelet, Certificate of Origin and presentation box
Reference 5711 in steel was launched in 2006 to celebrate the 30th anniversary of the Nautilus. It paid tribute to its forefather, the original reference 3700, keeping the original “jumbo” 42mm case but with the addition of a central seconds hand. The 5711 immediately hit a sweet spot with collectors around the world with waiting lists going up to close to a decade until it was discontinued in early 2021. In 2013 Patek Philippe presented a very elusive and mysterious reference 5711 in platinum. A model that was never listed in the brand’s catalogue, never available for viewing and reserved for a select clientele. It is believed that a mere 50 examples were made.

At first glance the platinum 5711 may look like its stainless steel sibling, but subtle details set it apart, showing just how exclusive and important the watch really is. Whereas the dial of the steel watch is blue/ grey, the dial of the platinum model is vivid blue contrasting beautifully with the platinum case. Other subtle details demonstrate that Patek Philippe considers this watch to be truly apart and has extra touches that add up to make all the difference, such as the logo printing on the dial. Whereas on the steel version the logo is directly printed on the fluting of the dial, with the platinum version a flat recessed area has been created for the logo print. The bevels on the case and bracelet are more prominent than on the steel version and like with all platinum Patek Philippe models a small diamond on the case at 6 o’clock indicated the use of this precious metal. Obviously however the most important element is the platinum case and bracelet that have an incredible sheen that no other metal has, the sheer heft of the watch will also remind the wearer what an incredible piece is on his or her wrist. So rare is the platinum reference 5711 that only a handful have graced the auction market. The present example from 2013 is preserved in excellent condition and is delivered full set with box and paperwork.

The House of Gübelin started with a small watchmaker’s workshop by Mauritz Breitschmid in Lucerne, Switzerland back in 1854. In the 1920s, they began setting up their own jewellery atelier and gemmological laboratory. Almost 170 years later, Gübelin still stands as a reowned family-owned retailer for watches, jewellery, and gemstones, with branches in Switzerland, Hong Kong and New York. This present vintage wristwatch is a rare find that is signed and retailed by E. Gübelin. It has a charming champagne radium dial embellished by oxidation marks which emits a golden flare from its aging. The radium luminous materials on the dial are still reactive, rendering burnt marks on its surface over time. The dial resonates with the Arabics numerals with luminescent coating, and the luminous hands to give off an attractive sight. The fancy lugs of the watch in particular accentuate the beauty of the watch. The movement of the watch comes with indirect center seconds, which was a new development for wristwatches beginning in 1940s. Before that, almost all watches had a small seconds sub-sial, normally positioned at the 6 o’clock because of the gear train arrangement on the movement. This wristwatch is a superb example that should not be missed by any vintage watch collectors. LOT OFFERED WITHOUT RESERVE

Cased in a sleek and angular rectangular-shaped stainless steel case, it frames an elegant yet simplistic dial, one in glossy black and the other in champagne, both examples feature Arabic numerals and small seconds that completes the Art Deco appeal of the era. Powered by manual cal. K.F. 190 by Kurth Frères, which was first established by two brothers in 1888, it was a company specializing in manufacturing movements for the Swiss watchmaking industry. Certina was first registered in 1924, and in the following years, more and more timepieces manufactured by the firm was signed Certina instead of its previous brand name, Grana. The present pair of Certina wristwatches from the 1930s are a specimen of the decadent period of the firm preserved in almost “new-old-stock” condition.

Launched in 1934, the reference 130 is powered by the modified Valjoux movement cal. 13, and easily recognizable due to its slightly curved, elongated lugs and thin, concave bezel. The model was extremely successful and remained in production until at least 1964. Even though it was manufactured for close to 30 years, output was quite limited, resulting in a total of about 1,500 pieces produced. It was offered in yellow gold, pink gold, and stainless steel (though other metals or combinations of metals have been used for special request pieces). The present example in yellow gold features a well-preserved case that retains its pleasing hallmark on its gold caseband. Manufactured by Emile Vichet signified by the number 9 inside a key stamped to the inner case back, the satin brushed finishing is in excellent condition. Charmingly aged into an almost ‘champagne’ hue dial, the raised hard enamel that covers the signature and the scales are vivid and strong. Underscoring its rarity and allure, the signature of Trust Joyero elevates this timepiece as a double-signed specimen from 1950. It was one of only a very select few firms privileged enough to be allowed to put their name on a Patek Philippe dial. The Spanish retailer was originally based in Madrid and later emigrated to Argentina, Buenos Aires after 1936.

Mathey-Tissot, not to be confused with the firm Tissot, was founded in 1886 by Edmond Mathey-Tissot in Les Ponts-de-Martel, Switzerland, and specialized in complicated pocket watches. However, the firm soon began to manufacture high-quality chronograph movements. During the 1914 Kew Observatory competition, Mathey-Tissot entered six observatory chronometers with split seconds timing, which all achieved a “Class A ‘ rating with the note that they were “especially good”. By World War I, the U. S. Army Corps of Engineers commissioned Mathey-Tissot to provide them with precision chronographs. Breguet also looked to the firm in the 1950s, when it chose them to produce and assemble the now iconic Breguet Type XX chronographs that were used by the French navy. For over a century, Mathey-Tissot has been producing movements for some of the most prestigious brands in the industry, but vintage Mathey-Tissot timepieces rarely resurface on the market as they were produced in very small numbers. The present chronograph two a simple two-counter display is from the 1950s and is a prime example of firm’s work. Equipped with a superb signed Valjoux 23 movement, this watch seamlessly blends class and sportiness. Its 35mm pink gold case exudes a subtle elegance, making it the perfect dress watch with a sporty aesthetic. Meanwhile, the beautiful patinated dial is simple enough to be worn under a crisp white shirt, but still manages to catch the eye with its understated charm. To top it all off, the cream canvas is topped with charming applied Arabic numerals and dagger-shaped hour markers and the blued steel chronograph hands add just the right amount of contrast to make this watch a true standout piece. The present example is a well preserved collectible that bears an eagle’s head hallmark on the caseback and the caseband, indicating that this Swiss made watch was originally made for the French market.

Making its important debut in 1953, the Patek Philippe ref. 2526 is the firm’s first self-winding wristwatch that was serially produced. Adored and appreciated by collectors, the prestigious reference is arguably one of the most impressive time-only model ever manufactured by Patek Philippe due to its practical self-winding caliber, timeless design and its tastefully executed off-white enamel dial. Encased in yellow gold, pink gold, white gold and platinum, it is estimated that throughout its production spanning until 1960, an estimated 2,350 examples were encased in yellow gold across all four series. The distinctive features for each series of the ref. 2526 are as follows: 1st series: The enamelled dials are topped with riveted index markers where they are set in their holes using two small cylinder pins. The 6 o’clock index is almost as large as other indexes, with later examples fitted with smaller ones. The watch is closed with a domed screw-down caseback. Movement numbers in the first series range from 760’000 to 761’699 while their case numbers range from 674’XXX – 684’XXX. 2nd series: The enamelled dial is adorned with laid indexes (glued) and the 6 o’clock marker is notably smaller. Like the 1st series, the 2nd series is fitted with a domed screw-down caseback. Movement numbers range from 760’500 to 763’999 while their case numbers range from 674’XXX to 684’XXX.
3rd series: As shown in the present timepiece, examples from this generation are blessed with enamelled dials that look the same as the 2nd series and are fitted with upgraded flat screw-down casebacks. Movement numbers range from 761’700 to 767’099 while their case numbers range from 681’XXX – 2’613’XXX. 4th series: The enamelled dial on the final iteration is designed with a slightly different signature. They are powered by the updated cal. 27-460, rather than the original cal. 12-700. Movement numbers range from 1’100’000 to 1’100’999 while their case numbers range from 2’606’XXX – 2’613’XXX. The present Patek Philippe ref. 2526 in yellow gold is from the 3rd series, bearing case and movement numbers that are consistent with examples from the respective series. Boasting a beautifully preserved off-white enamel dial with shorter index at 6 o’clock, the watch is closed with a flat screw-down caseback topping it off with its original forged “double P” crown. Delivered with its Extract from the Archives, this is no doubt a star collectible for vintage connoisseurs.

There’s an alluring air of casual sophistication around vintage Patek Philippe, and this 1963 ref. 3466 delivers it in spades. First introduced in 1962, ref. 3466 remained in production for approximately ten years before being discontinued in the early 1970s. Housed in a waterresistant stainless steel case, the model was a sportier, more casual alternative to Patek Philippe’s precious metal timepieces. Compared to gold, stainless steel was a far rarer offering in Patek’s mid-century productions. The present example evokes mid-century nonchalance with its sunburst silver dial and understated beaded minute track. The 35mm case is timelessly modern in diameter, and wonderfully crisp given its nearly 60 years of age. But housed within that sleek steel case is the revered cal. 27-460 automatic movement in gleaming 18k yellow gold rotor. Connoisseurs consider it to be one of the finest automatic movements ever created before it was discontinued in the 1980s. Accompanied by its Patek Philippe Extract from the Archives, this rare ref. 3466 is most certainly a keeper in any collection. Its well-preserved combo of sporty steel and timeless elegance makes it the perfect vintage choice for the modern gentleman looking to add a touch of understated charm on his wrist.

First released in 1960, the Patek Philippe reference 3429 sized at 35mm diameter were available in pink and yellow gold, with a handful of examples in white gold and platinum. Considered by collectors as a milestone and one of the most beautiful movements by Patek Philippe, the reference is powered by the improved calibre 27-460 based on the legendary calibre 12-600 AT made between 1953-1960, the maison’s first automatic movement used in reference 2526 and many others. Both true workhorses, the cal. 27-460 produced from circa 1960-1981 features noteworthy upgrades of a thinner movement powered by a non-guilloche rotor: the jewel supporting the rotor was replaced by a flatter ball-bearing system, and a redesigned balance cock featuring a new, adjustable balance spring stud carrier. In fact, beyond these differences, the movement remained largely the same as cal. 12-600, which itself had a series of incremental upgrades through the years. Understated and sophisticated, the present ref. 3429 from 1963 in yellow gold is preserved in excellent condition and retains its strong hallmark on the caseband. Made by casemaker Wenger, the elegant screw-down case back design with straight downturned lugs and flat bezel celebrates the beauty of simplicity and practicality. The Stern Frères dial is similarly well-preserved, featuring a raised hard enamel signature, and wonderful sheen. It is interesting to note the reference 3429 is one of only a handful of 1950/60s Patek Philippe models to feature the “PP” crown, including the iconic reference 2526.

A Patek Philippe does not just tell you the time, it tells you something about yourself. For purist who might value the art of understate beauty, a Patek Philippe Calatrava might be the answer. And for those that seek for that extra bit of pleasure from details, the Clous de Paris on top of the Calatrava might just be the one. An icon on its own, the first Patek Philippe Calatrava to be adorned with a Clous de Paris bezel was the ref. 96D (D for décor) from 1934. Under close inspection, the double rings of pyramid shaped nails encircling the dial catches light beautifully to another dimension. Unveiled decades later, the ref. 3802 was born in 1983, bearing similar traditional features with a modern twist. Taking cues from its predecessor, the present model is a ref. 3802/208. Apart from the commonly seen variant featuring a white dial with refined Roman indexes, the present example stands out by miles. Ivory with a hint of lavender in colour, the dial of this ref. 3802 is adorned with 11 brilliant blue sapphire indexes that brings life to this white gold Calatrava. A staple classic to own, the full length intricate white gold bracelet with matching Clous de Paris details is a delight to wear. Well-preserved not only with good looks but also practicality thanks to its calibre 315 SC for its quick-set date, this classic Patek Philippe might just be the next watch you are looking for.

Jewellery watches since 19th century proved to be a powerful link between the world of fashion and watchmaking. While world travel grew in popularity amongst the aristocrats and high society, the demands of extraordinary designs skyrocketed altogether. From bedazzling pieces with precious stones, taking inspiration from exotic animals or botanic references, manufactures like Cartier, Patek Philippe, Piaget and Van Cleef & Arpels started to unleash their creativity to satisfy the needs of their clienteles. Not only dress to impress, practicality and versatility were also injected into the new era of jewellery pieces. The Patek Philippe ref. 4955 from the late 90s certainly fall into this category. Embellish with floral motifs throughout as a bangle and a watch at the same time, the model was available in white and yellow gold or with the addition of diamond set details. Hiding in plain sight, a gentle push of a petite pusher reveals an elegant watch dial. While the present example is fitted with a black dial with white Roman numeral indexes, the option of white dials were also seen mostly with the yellow gold version of the ref. 4955. Perfect for a black tie event or even paired with a leather jacket, the present ref. 4955G-001 is truly a statement piece with a heft. For those who like to be daring and bold, this rare piece is for you.

The ultimate form of transparency in watchmaking by Patek Philippe dates back to the 1860s when the firm produced a small series of skeletonized pocket watches. And in the dawn of the 1980s, Patek Philippe started to implement the skeleton movement on the coveted Ellipse ref. 3880 in yellow gold for the first time. Only a handful of these skeletonized watches could be made annually and it is believed that only a few hundred were produced from the entire production run from 1980 to late 1990s. Finished to the highest degree of artisanal craftsmanship, the present ref. 3881J is an all-around marvel to appreciate. The mastery of the art of engraving is shown in full force within the miniature works of art encircled by an attractive diamond-set skeletonized dial. Powered by the calibre 177 also used in the ref. 3880, each intricate hand engraved strokes decorates the entire timepiece with dedication and grace. According to research only about 100-200 examples were every made during its production from the 1980 until mid 1990s with only approximately 20 or so pieces resurfacing in the market. Furthermore, the present example is fitted with a matching yellow gold Patek Philippe mesh bracelet to elevate its presence. Preserved in an excellent overall condition and remained freshly sealed from a Patek Philippe service, the present timepiece is the 9th example to appear in the market and is delivered with its Patek Philippe Extract from the Archives confirming its date of manufacture from 1982.

The dual-time complication is not foreign to Cartier at all, an iconic fitted into coveted models from the Parisian Maison such as the Cartier Tonneau, Tank Cintrée and Tank À Vis, the double crowned timepieces balances both elegance and practicality at the same time. The present square-shaped timepiece is somewhat of a peculiar sibling from the family. Cased in yellow gold with short faceted straight lugs, the timepiece is not your everyday Cartier. It features a golden canvas with two dial operated by individual crowns, each stamped in black with a Cartier signature beside its Roman numeral dial. Unusual as it is, this rare specimen is in fact powered by a Baume & Mercier movement. This brings us back to 1993, the birth of Vendôme Luxury Group who operated one of the world’s most distinguished collection of luxury goods including Cartier. As the King of Jewellers, Cartier further acquired controlling shares in Piaget and Baume & Mercier for its reign. During the time, Baume & Mercier would provide movements for a small portion of timepiece for the Maison. Powered by the cal. BM550, the present Cartier Dual-time shares strong similarity to the Baume & Mercier ref. 32001. An extremely rare specimen, this is the first example to appear in the market. Preserved in excellent condition retaining it’s strong lugs and edges, the hallmarks are further wellpreserved on the caseback and between the lugs. With a recent Cartier service record this year, the present Cartier Dual-time is certainly a rare breed for Cartier aficionados.

The Rolex Datejust reference 6305 gets its nickname the “Ovettone” from the likeness of its rounded caseback to an egg. Available in stainless steel and yellow gold, variation of different dials can be found, but the yellow and black combination is arguably the most attractive. Sporting in shinny yellow gold, the present ref. 6305-1 with a gorgeous black lacquered dial features three lines of gilt script bearing “Chronometer Officially Certified “at 6 o’clock. This configuration is extremely rare as most dials display “Officially Certified Chronometer” in two lines. Perfectly complementing the yellow gold daggered indexes and dauphine hands, the gold framed aperture reveals a charming roulette date wheel that gives the watch a dash of red throughout the month. The same reference was offered in Geneva Watch Auction XVI achieved a staggering result of 189,000CHF. Highly rare and collectible, this variant of the Datejust “Ovettone” retains its Brevet crown and is paired with a yellow gold Rolex Jubilee bracelet. Aged with vintage charm and remains reactive under the Geiger counter, the present example from circa 1954 with a 99’XXX serial is a sophisticated choice for connoisseurs.

The vintage Rolex ref. 5504 stands as a coveted prize for collectors, encapsulating histories of both the Air-King and Explorer. Its origins lie alongside the storied Air-Tiger, Air-Lion and Air-Giant in Rolex’s commemorative Aviation series. Of these tributes, only the Air-King endures today. The ref. 5504, with its stainless steel case, smooth bezel and arresting dial marked by dauphine hands and traditional hour markers, represents the most popular embodiment of this foundational model. Its restrained elegance evokes aviation feats of a bygone era. In the lineage of Rolex’s iconic Explorer, the ref. 5504 stands apart as a rare vintage gem. Launched in 1957, four years after the debut of the inaugural ref. 6150, this classically sized Oyster case houses the cal. 1530 movement, first introduced in the Air-King. The ref. 5504 distinguishes itself with a “Super Precision” signature instead of the customary “Superlative Chronometer” designation. Dating from circa 1958, this particular ref. 5504 combines both the Air-King and Explorer in one watch. The dial has developed a rich cream patina, imparting a unique character that only time can cultivate. For Rolex collectors and aficionados of vintage horology alike, this unusual ref. 5504 Air-King Explorer offers an intriguing opportunity to explore the foundations of an iconic watchmaking heritage.

In 1962, Rolex introduced the Submariner ref. 5513, which would become one of their most important and long-standing Submariner models. The ref. 5513 had an exceptionally long production run that spanned 27 years before finally ceasing in 1989. This particular reference established the characteristic Submariner aesthetic that Rolex still utilizes in their contemporary Submariner designs today. When the ref. 5513 was first released, it featured glossy black lacquered dials with gilt text. Additionally, these early dials had a “meters first” layout, with the depth rating in meters before the feet measurement. By 1970, Rolex had transitioned to matte black dials with white text, and a “feet first” layout. It is estimated that Rolex only produced the glossy gilt dials for the first 4 years of the ref. 5513’s lifespan. As such, these early iterations with glossy black dials are considered quite rare and highly desirable to collectors. The glossy dials represent some of the last of their kind before Rolex switched definitively to matte. This particular ref. 5513 fitted with the coveted glossy gilt “meters first” dial dates to circa 1965, as evidenced by its 1.1 million serial number. Offered in attractive overall condition, with beautifully aged luminous dial plots, the present example embodies a seminal era of Submariner design. Vintage Rolex aficionados will appreciate the opportunity to add this collectible timepiece to their assemblage.

Not just a blueprint for modern dive watches, the Rolex Submariner is an icon that has cultivated a large following dedicated to every variant and slight modification from its first iteration, which appeared in the Rolex catalogue in 1953, to the present day. The Submariner ref. 1680 was launched in 1967. Being the first of its kind to be fitted with a date function, the not-so-inconspicuous date window sparked a heated controversy among watch aficionados that is still aglow today. As seen on the present timepiece, the reference displays a ‘feet first’ depth rating and a single line of red ‘Submariner’ script, resulting in its nickname, the “Red Sub”. Deemed a cult favourite among collectors, these rare Submariners with a pop of rouge mark an important milestone for this sports model. Of the seven different iterations of “Red Submariner” dials, established by the scholars of the community, the present example is fitted with a Mark VI dial that was approximately produced between the 3 million to 4 million serials. This is distinguished by its closed 6’s in the depth rating, and the red lettering of Submariner which is not printed over white. Extenuating its vintage appeal, the luminous material on the dial itself have aged beautifully, resulting in a rich golden yellow hue. The ref. 1680 is a landmark wristwatch for the Rolex brand and bearing a 3.74 million serial, this beautifully preserved Submariner from circa 1974 is a fine example.

Released in 1971, the Rolex Explorer II provided a refreshed appeal to the famous Explorer line via the ref. 1655. Designed for expeditioners and professionals, the ref. 1655 featured a large triangular tipped luminous orange 24-hour hand allowing the wearer to tell the time under any conditions earning its nickname “Freccione” meaning “Big Arrow” in Italian. Featuring a 24-hour calibrated bezel, the purpose was to provide speleologists to differentiate between night and day in tremendous caving expeditions. In production until the mid-1980s, the reference was released with a total of 5 different marks with an additional two service dials (one with tritium and one with luminova). The present example from circa 1973 with a 3.2 million serial features a correct Mark I dial with Mark I center second hand and a Mark II bezel is offered in attractive overall condition.

ROLEX — An extremely rare and well-preserved stainless steel chronograph wristwatch with Paul Newman Mk 2 “Oyster Sotto” dial and bracelet
The most unattainable and sought-after variant of all Paul Newman wristwatches is unequivocally the “Oyster Sotto Paul Newman”. Scholars estimate that less than 25 examples have appeared and no more than a handful have been sold at auction thus far. The moniker “Oyster Sotto”, meaning “Oyster Underneath” in Italian, signifies the correct dial configuration of a reference 6263 “Paul Newman” fitted with a black dial. A correct one displays “Rolex Cosmograph Oyster” rather than “Rolex Oyster Cosmograph”, the latter of which is the correct configuration of a “Paul Newman” with white dial. “Oyster Sotto” dials were fitted to the earliest 6263s, the “Oyster” designation referring to the model’s waterresistant screw-down pushers.

The most unattainable and sought-after variant of all Paul Newman wristwatches is unequivocally the “Oyster Sotto Paul Newman”. Scholars estimate that less than 25 examples have appeared, and no more than a handful have been sold at auction thus far. The moniker “Oyster Sotto”, meaning “Oyster Underneath” in Italian, signifies the correct dial configuration of a ref. 6263 “Paul Newman” fitted with three-color black dial, also known as “RCO” - “Rolex Cosmograph Oyster” rather than “Rolex Oyster Cosmograph”, the latter of which is the correct configuration of a “Paul Newman” with white dial. The black “Oyster Sottos” are the rarest among all Paul Newmans ever produced. It is interesting to note that "Oyster Sotto" dials were fitted to the earliest ref. 6263s, which newly featured waterproof screw down pushers. The dials were originally fitted to non-waterproof references 6262 or 6264, which bore "Rolex Cosmograph" only. The "Oyster" designation was thus later added to the dial, to denote ref. 6263’s waterproof ability. Hence, the "Oyster" print does not display any serifs and looks unusual compared to the "Rolex Cosmograph" font. To the best of our knowledge, the present black “Oyster Sotto” from 1969 is characteristic of the rarer Mk 2 variant, bearing a serial number of 2’197’835. The Mk 2 dial features a slightly elongated "tail" to the "R" in Rolex. The dial remains in excellent condition, with luminous dots intact and round. Vibrant colors and sharp graphics give the dial a striking, captivating presence. Its superb state of preservation makes this a phenomenal example. Other correct features of this watch are the first generation "Millerighe" screw-down pushers and the Mk 1 bezel. Beautifully preserved, it is not an overstatement to say that the present specimen is a true “Crown Jewel” for all collectors of highly important timepieces.

The present DB27 Titan Hawk in all black is the perfect illustration of Flageollet’s design philosophy. The model was launched in 2012 for the 10th anniversary of the De Bethune Manufacture and it has since developed into a favourite among watch collectors. The watch case is made from sandblasted anthracite zirconium, a high-tech material that is sturdy, lightweight, and hypoallergenic. Taking a close look at the condition of the present watch, and you would be amazed by its exceptional quality, an attestation indeed to the strength of the material. The watch is further enhanced by the De Bethune patented floating lugs which pivot naturally according to the movement of the wearer. With the crown positioned at the 12 o’clock instead of at 3, it ensures that the watch can sit lightly on the wrist without causing any discomfort. Do not be fooled by the watch’s simple display of hour, minutes, and date into thinking that it lacks the technological prowess that De Bethune is famous for. The first thing that will catch your eye is the magnificent Microlight engraving featured on the centre of the black dial. The soothing texture strikes a pleasing balance with the convex chapter ring with Roman numerals, producing a phenomenal sight. The timepiece also comes with an impressive movement, equipped with the De Bethune patented twin barrel, balance wheel, balance spring, oscillating weight and triple pare-chute shock-absorbing system. The best part is that the beautiful silicon escape-wheel can even be appreciated by looking through a porthole on the lower part of the case back. Quite possibly the earliest example to appear on the market, the present watch is numbered 002 in a limited production of only 27 pieces since 2014. Further accompanied by full accessories, this very rare and impeccably well-preserved watch is a mouth-watering treat for the most stylish watch aficionados. Sleek, simple and chic, it is impossible not to fall in love with this very special Titan Hawk All Black.

The UR-100 series is one of the most iconic and sought-after models released by Urwerk. The present “Fireleg” is a marvelous example, one of a limited edition of 25 pieces made, imbued with a distinctive Urwerk aesthetics, which takes us through an adventure through space and time. A spectacular design inspired by the Mexican Fireleg tarantula, the “Fireleg” has paired the signature satellite hours and minutes, and indication of Earth’s rotational and orbital distance, with fiery orange numerals and retrograde minute pointers, all set against the black PVD coated titanium and stainless steel case. The UR-100 has taken a new futuristic approach with the wandering hours display, an invention made originally for a clock in the Vatican City that dates back to the 17th century. The centre of the dial features three satellite discs rotated by a carousel sweep which shows the hour beneath an openworked disc, while the minutes are indicated by the orange pointer. Drawn from a clock by 19th century French clockmaker Gustave Sandoz and gifted to Felix Baumgartner by his father, the “Fireleg” also features intriguing astronomical indications, manifesting a set of playful timeless time displays. A scale at 10 o’clock shows the rotation of the Earth in 20 minutes, and on the opposite side, a scale at 2 o’clock shows the revolution of the Earth around the Sun in 20 minutes. The “Fireleg” would without a doubt re-ignite your fond childhood memories of space exploration. Encapsulating cutting-edge technical prowess, the present timepiece boasts an automatic Swiss lever movement with 48 hours of power reserve and 28,800 vibrations per hour. The automatic movement is regulated by the “Planetary Turbine Automatic System”, consisting of a turbine rotor and a windfänger, which regulates the spinning of the rotor. All of which are fully exposed on the transparent caseback to the wearer’s delight. Preserved in excellent condition, and accompanied by warranty and presentation box, this exceptionally rare and highly wearable UR-100 Fireleg is an awe-striking timepiece which would continue to captivate connoisseurs and laymen alike.

For those entrenched in the horological world of the 21st century, it is difficult to imagine an existence without F.P. Journe. FrançoisPaul Journe introduced his first wristwatch, the Tourbillon Souverain, in 1999, and shortly thereafter followed with the revolutionary Chronométre à Résonance and the Octa Automatique. The Octa began as one watch but with the mindset that Journe was in fact building the base of an entire collection – which indeed happened. Before being discontinued, the Octa Automatique formed the basis of eight separate models, each with different complications. This particular Octa is in fact, an Octa Calandrier from Journe’s Ruthenium collection. It incorporates an automatic annual calendar complication in a 40mm platinum case, with ruthenium coated dial and movement plate – a first for the brand. According to the brand’s website, it is the first wristwatch to combine the annual calendar function with both an oversized date. Journe created the Ruthenium collection between the move from brass movements to 18K pink gold movements, and aside from the Souscription pieces, they are some of the most highly coveted, early examples. The Ruthenium collection comprises five models: the Octa Jour/ Nuit (Night/Day), the Octa Calandrier (the present watch), the Octa Chronographe, the Chronomètre à Résonance, and the Tourbillon Souveraine. Each model was released in only 99 examples between
2003 and 2004. Stylistically, the Ruthenium collection examples close the door on the early brass movement pieces, with a larger case diameter and the darker hue of the ruthenium dials and movements, and open the door to the more modern iterations that have drawn admirers of Journe’s craft year after year. The development of the movement was a prolonged process, with the main task being refining the mainspring to a point where it gave consistent power to the gear train, for as large a proportion of its unwinding as possible. Together with a specialist spring maker, Journe finally settled on a design that was a metre long and 1mm thick. This caliber 1300 also integrates a power reserve of 120 hours. The present number 43 of 99 is fresh-to-the-market and offered in pristine overall condition. The steely gray dial contrasts beautifully with the silver guilloché disc for hours and minutes, and the annual calendar function is elegantly laid out. Such a timepiece is sure to satisfy the collecting thirst of the most astute Journe aficionados.

Avant-garde and a true pioneer of haute horlogerie, Francois-Paul Journe’s constant strive for ground breaking timepieces captured the hearts of many astute collectors. Since the debut of the world premiere Tourbillon Souverain remontoir system in 1999, it took a decade long of yearning until the reveal of the TN Model (“Tourbillon Nouveau”) with an innovative inclusion of the dead beat second, hence Remontoir d’Egalité avec Seconde Morte. An art of making time stand still, the complication requires the utmost precision to reliably stop and restart the seconds hand as the escapement continues to beat—not moving until one second has elapsed, then jumps to the next second. Enriched with a deadbeat seconds complication, the timepiece with constant force mechanism results much higher accuracy and precise time reading. Exceptional with beauty and complexity, the second generation is upsized from 38mm to 40mm with a fresh 18K pink gold movement. While the normal production was made in either platinum or pink gold, the present piece is anything but a “standard” iteration of the model. Born as a celebration timepiece, F. P. Journe released a total of 20 limited edition examples made in titanium to commemorate the anniversary of is boutiques all over the world including, Tokyo, Hong Kong, Geneva and Boca Raton. Each location has an allocation of 5 pieces each, featuring an incredible two-tone livery: titanium case body,
ruthenium dial and pink gold crown. The same color pattern is reprised on the dial, featuring an anthracite background with pink accents for this collection. Engraved on the caseback with USA-BR, 4/5-TT, this is numbered 4 out of 5 pieces made to celebrates the first anniversary of the F. P Journe Boutique opened in the renowned Mizner Park in Boca Raton, Florida back in 2006. Momentous in its aesthetic impact and gargantuan in its collectability, the present timepiece is the fourth piece to be made from the ultrarare edition. Furthermore, this timepiece is paired with a F. P. Journe platinum bracelet, elevating its presence on the owner’s wrist. With only one example sold ten years ago at auction, Phillips is honoured to present this timepiece to collectors for the first time in our auction.

Debuted as the successor to the Patek Philippe ref. 5050, the ref. 5059 enjoyed a successful 8-year production run between 1998 and 2006. In total, an estimated 1200-1400 examples of this reference were produced. Its rarity and limited production run only add to the desirability and value of this exceptional timepiece. The ref. 5059 is powered by the same movement as its predecessor, a historically important for the evolution of Patek Philippe. Before the advent of cal. 315 S-QR, Patek Philippe perpetual calendars were only equipped with either automatic movements or manual winding movements with a sweep center seconds, such as the automatic ref. 3448 and more recently 3940, or the sweep centre seconds ref. 2497. The cal. 315 S0QR was ahead of its time as it combines an automatic module with sweep center seconds and builds upon that with a retrograde date indicator. Taking cues from the much coveted ref. 5016, the dial layout of the ref. 5059 embodies a nostalgic graphic approach, featuring radial Roman numerals and a sectorial style that references timepieces from the early 20th century. Fusing form with function, the result is a very attractive configuration with a high legibility. Moving onto the case, the present reference steers away from the classic calatrava-style case of the Ref. 5050 and opted in for a more prominent and elaborated officer-style case, defined by its screw lugs and hinged case back. This not only increases the wrist presence of the piece but is also deeply rooted in Patek Philippe DNA, albeit its use is quite sparse. It is not a coincidence that it often appears in celebratory series and is even used today on some of the most classical and important models. Overall, the yellow gold Patek Philippe ref. 5059J is a very refined and complicated example of Patek Philippe watchmaking at its best. Whether you are a seasoned collector or a connoisseur of fine watchmaking, the Patek Philippe Ref. 5059J is a true masterpiece that should not be overlooked. Its combination of technical sophistication, nostalgic design, and rare production make it a highly sought-after and prized addition to any collection.

Unveiled in 1994, the Patek Philippe ref. 5020, known endearingly as the “TV Screen” for its cushion case, enjoyed but a brief eightyear production run. This avant-garde alternative to the popular ref. 3970 mirrored its perpetual calendar leap year function and 24-hour indicator, yet stood apart through its bold design and refined proportions. Initially shunned by Patek Philippe clients, today the ref. 5020 is fervently sought-after for its unusual case design, with merely 200 examples crafted in precious metals. The present ref. 5020R is the 21st known example to have surfaced on the market. Connoisseurs especially prize the Lemania-based cal. CH 27-70Q, the venerable maison’s first non-Valjoux chronograph movement. Heavily modified and finished to flawless standard, it was one of the finest available at the time. The present pink gold example is splendidly preserved, with the beautiful Breguet dial immaculate and breathtaking. What’s more intriguing is the presence of 6 hallmarks on the back of the watch, which according to our research indicate that the present ref. 5020R was stamped with Russian hallmarks before being sold at the retailer. The letter “M” indicates the assay office in Moscow and the head of a woman facing right is the core image of the Russian Federation. This distinctive timepiece is further complete with Certificate of Origin, setting pin and presentation box.

Evoking the virtuosity of renowned 18th century horologist Abraham-Louis Breguet, the Parmigiani Fleurier Toric collection integrates both time-honored complications and avant-garde ingenuity. Its evocative name derives from the toroidal forms evident in the collection’s stepped, fluted bezels, drawing design inspiration from Hellenic and Roman architecture and the Golden Ratio’s sublime curvature. The Toric Tourbillon exemplifies Parmigiani’s mastery, its open-worked dial and sapphire caseback framing the meticulously finished PF280 calibre. Abiding by exacting Geneva Seal standards, the movement’s finishes are superb - deep perlage patterns, anglage beveling, even the screw inserts display immaculate finesse, testifying to Michel Parmigiani and his watchmakers’ peerless skills. On the silvered dial, blue steel hands are heat-blued and polished to a mirror shine. Beveled waves create entrancing optical effects, dividing the dial into hemispheres. At six o’clock, a mesmerizing tourbillon cage reveals the opalescent baseplate with its circular graining and gilded gears. Blued screws provide vivid contrast to the argenté palette, their symmetry echoed in the jewels at 12 and 6 o’clock. Three screws are judiciously placed each side, completing the composition. The present Toric Tourbillon is encased in a 40mm platinum case, numbered 5 of a limited edition of 10 pieces only. Extremely rare and well-preserved with its full set of accessories, this limited edition also comes with an enamel caseback, an exquisite detail that makes this watch all that more special and worthy of any collection.

The De Bethune DB28 Skybridge revealed the window on infinity with its stunning blued titanium night sky in 2013. Debuted with an intense radiant blue night sky shimmering with white gold stars and diamonds, the dial paints a vivid night sky as if one gaze upon the Monte Carlo night sky on 19th November 1857. Extruding everything De Bethune, the 45mm diameter DB28 Skybridge cased in Grade 5 titanium features a beautiful set of spring-loaded lugs that are unmistakable from a mile away. An eminent reference to the famous 18th century clocks, this star-studded sky in mirror-polished and blued titanium derives its power and beauty from its concave shape and its multiple decorations crafted in the company workshops in the village of L’Auberson. Designed with perfect symmetry divided by the arrowshaped Skybridge pointing towards infinity, the brand’s signature 3D moon phase anchored at 6 o’clock adds a gorgeous dimension to the minimalistic canvas. Balancing the dial with equal grace are ten spherical white gold hour markers that makes up the constellation of time discreetly. The overall aesthetic is almost identical to the DB28 Skybridge launched in the Only Watch auction in 2013. Only difference is that the latter example is cased in platinum with a blued titanium chapter ring instead of frosted titanium. Turning the watch over is the gorgeous movement featuring mirror polished bridges and complemented with blued steel triple pare-chute bridge and titanium plate. Beating at 28,800 vibrations per hour, the silicon annular balance encircled by white gold ring is a delight to admire. Offered in excellent condition with its full set of accessories, this is numbered 003 on the movement, making this the second piece with the earliest serial to appear in auction.

PHILIPPE DUFOUR — An early, extremely rare and highly important white gold wristwatch with small seconds, Certificate of Origin and presentation box, numbered 09
From an Important Private Collection 重要私人收藏
A silhouette that is truly unique, a man with a loupe on his head, puffing out smoke from his elegant pipe in his Atelier amongst the peaceful valley of Le Solliat in the Vallée de Joux. Philippe Dufour is a name that’s foreign to none in the world of horology, a true living legend and guardian of traditional watchmaking in our times. An independent watchmaker since the late 1970s, Dufour restored antique and vintage timepieces which led him ten years later to develop a very small series of pocket and grand sonnerie wrist watches, followed by the Duality, the world’s first wristwatch incorporating a double escapement. After having proven his undeniable talent and expertise in creating ultra-complicated mechanisms, he set out in the year 2000 to create yet another icon. Classic and understated, a three-handed timepiece, the Simplicity is a masterpiece. The Simplicity model was introduced in 2000 as a nod to traditional Swiss watchmaking, with each timepiece being handmade and assembled. The model was produced in different variations, with pink or white gold cases, a smaller model with 34mm diameter case, and a larger model with 37mm case. Dufour also created two dial types, one in white lacquer and the other with a hand-guilloché dial. Initially, the Simplicity was supposed to be limited to only 100 watches, but due to the incredible demand from clients and collectors, Dufour extended that number to circa 205. Japan was known to have a large and passionate following since the very early days, as a result 204 Simplicities that were made between 2000 and 2012, 120 of them were sold in Japan. Purchased by an astute collector at Shellman Japan in 2001, the present timepiece is certainly one of the earliest pieces that left Dufour’s workbench.

♦ 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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.

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.
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. 4 After the Auction Payment Buyers are required to pay for purchases immediately following the auction unless other arrangements have been agreed with Phillips in writing in advance of the sale. Payment must be made in Hong Kong dollars by wire transfer, as noted in Paragraph 6 of the Conditions of Sale. Cash and cheques are not accepted. Credit Cards As a courtesy to clients who have bid or bought in Phillips auctions previously, Phillips will accept American Express, Visa, MasterCard, and China Union Pay to pay for invoices of HK$800,000 or less per auction. 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. Privacy Our Privacy Policy is available at www.phillips.com or by emailing dataprotection@ phillips.com and sets out: (i) the types of personal data we will or may collect and process; (ii) the purposes for which we will or may process your personal data; (iii) the lawful bases we rely on when processing your personal data; (iv) your rights in respect of our processing of your personal data; and (v) various other information as required by applicable laws. Phillips premises, sale, and exhibition venues are subject to CCTV video surveillance and recording for security, client service and bid monitoring purposes. Phillips’ auctions will be filmed for simultaneous live broadcast on Phillips’ and third party websites and applications. Your communications with Phillips, including by phone and online (e.g. phone and on-line bidding) may be recorded for security, client service and bid monitoring purposes. Where we record such information we will process it in accordance with our Privacy Policy.
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.

Hong Kong Conditions of Sale: Watches The Conditions of Sale and Authorship Warranty set out below govern the relationship between bidders and buyers, on the one hand, and Phillips Fine Watches Limited registered in Hong Kong under number 2131858 (“Phillips”) and sellers, on the other hand. 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, and (iv) 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 set at Phillips’s reasonable discretion. The proceeds of such sale 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 original auction. 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. 13 Personal Data (a) You acknowledge and understand that we may process your personal data (including potentially special category data) in accordance with our Privacy Policy as published at www.phillips.com or available by emailing dataprotection@ phillips.com.

(b) Notices to Phillips shall be in writing and addressed to the department in charge of the sale, quoting the reference number specified at the beginning of the sale catalogue. Notices to clients shall be addressed to the last address notified by them in writing to Phillips. (c) These Conditions of Sale are not assignable by any buyer without our prior written consent but are binding on the buyer’s successors, assigns and representatives. (d) Should any provision of these Conditions of Sale be held void, invalid or unenforceable for any reason, the remaining provisions shall remain in full force and effect. No failure by any party to exercise, nor any delay in exercising, any right or remedy under these Conditions of Sale shall act as a waiver or release thereof in whole or in part. (e) If there is any inconsistency or conflict between the English text of the Conditions of Sale, Guide for Prospective Buyers and/or Important Notices and their Chinese translations, the English text will prevail. 17 Law and Jurisdiction (a) The rights and obligations of the parties with respect to these Conditions of Sale and Authorship Warranty, the conduct of the auction and any matters related to any of the foregoing shall be governed by and interpreted in accordance with Hong Kong law. (b) For the benefit of Phillips, all bidders and sellers agree that the courts of Hong Kong are to have exclusive jurisdiction to settle all disputes arising in connection with all aspects of all matters or transactions to which these Conditions of Sale and Authorship Warranty relate or apply. All parties agree that Phillips shall retain the right to bring proceedings in any court other than the courts of Hong Kong. (c) All bidders and sellers irrevocably consent to service of process or any other documents in connection with proceedings in any court by facsimile transmission, personal service, delivery by mail or in any other manner permitted by Hong Kong law, the law of the place of service or the law of the jurisdiction where proceedings are instituted at the last address of the bidder or seller known to Phillips.
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.

拍賣品, 及可要求索取品狀報告。 拍賣中競投速度或會很迅速。 為確保網上競投者 與現場或電話競投者競投時不處於劣勢, 透過富藝斯網上競投平台競投為單一步驟 過程。透過按下電腦屏幕上的競投鍵,競投者即遞交一投標價。網上競投者確認及同 意 遞交之投標價為已確實及任何情況下或不能修改或退回。於拍賣進行中時,當有非 網 上投標出現時,該些投標會於網上競投者的電腦屏幕上顯示為“現場”投標。 “現場”投 標包括拍賣官為保障底價的投標。倘就同一項拍賣品收到網上競投者及一 “現場”或 “電話”競投者相同之競價,則拍賣官有權自行決定“現場”投標會獲優先 辦理。為方 便網上競投者競投,下一喊價顯示於投標鍵上,網上競投者之競投價遞增 幅度或會與 拍賣官實際上下一喊價有所不同。因拍賣官在任何時候可自行決定或會偏 離富藝斯之 標準遞增幅度,但網上競投者或只可以完整之下一喊價投標。富藝斯之標 準競投價遞增 幅度載於準買家指引。 (e) 不論以親身、書面競投、電話競投或網上方式競投, 當競投時即代表競投者接受 承擔繳付購買價及所有其他適用費用之責任, 詳情如以下第6(a)段所述。 (f) 不論以親身、書面競投、電話競投或網上方式注冊和參與競投,競投人聲明、保證 並確認(i)除非在拍賣前與富藝斯另有明確書面約定,否則競投人代表自己而非代表 任何其他人競投(ii)競投人將從自己的資金中支付款項(iii)競投人參與拍賣和支付 款項均是合法的,並不違反任何適用的制裁法律,和(iv)任何競投人或其代理人之投 標均不是任何串謀或其他反競爭協定的產物,且未違反任何適用法律、政府制裁和不 時生效的其他監管措施。 (g) 書面及電話競投是本公司提供予準買家之免費服務,本公 司將盡合理努力代其競 投。除了故意瀆職的情況外,本公司不會對因未能執行書面或電話競投,或在當中出現 之任何失誤或遺漏負任何責任。 (h) ✱ 高額拍賣品 標有此符號[*]的拍賣品為高額拍賣品。如欲競投高額拍賣品,準買家必須在拍品所屬 的拍賣時段開始24小時前完成富藝斯有關高額拍賣品的預先登記程序,並符合相關要 求。已完成有關高額拍賣品的預先登記程序及符合要求的準買家將獲發高額拍賣品競 投牌。拍賣高額拍賣品時,拍賣官將只接受高額拍賣品競投牌之出價。 詳情請向籌備 拍賣會之有關部門查詢。 (i) 富藝斯及其附屬公司之僱員,包括拍賣官,只可在不知底價及全面遵守本公司的僱 員競投內部規例之情況下進行書面競投。 5 拍賣規定 (a) 除非標有 • 符號, 否則所有拍賣品均有底價限制, 底價是一 富藝斯與賣家達成協議 的保密最低出售價。 該底價不會高於拍賣前低估價。 (b) 拍賣官可隨時酌情決定拒絕或接受任何競投, 撒回任何拍賣品, 重新出售拍賣品(包 括在落槌後), 以及如遇出錯或爭議時採取其認為是合適之其他行動。富藝斯不會為拍 賣官之行動承擔任何責任。如在拍賣後有任何爭議, 將會以本公司的拍賣紀錄為確鑿。 拍賣官或會接受富藝斯附屬公司競投者在不知道該拍賣品之底價的情況下之競投。 (c) 拍賣官會以其認為合適之喊價開始及繼續拍賣。為保障所有拍賣品的底價, 拍賣官 在不一定表示的情況下, 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賣品的拍賣前 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。 (d) 本拍賣會以港元進行拍賣及須以港元繳款。為方便海外客人, 圖錄內之拍賣前估價 或會用美元及或歐元, 及會反映大概兌換率。因此, 美元或歐元的估價只供參考用。為 方便競投者, 本公司於拍賣會上或使用貨幣兌換顯示板, 富藝斯 不會 為任何貨幣兌換 計算出現錯誤承擔任何責任。 (e) 在拍賣官之酌情下, 其出價最高且被拍賣官接受的競投者 將為買家, 下槌則顯示最 高競投價之被接受, 亦表示賣家與買 家之間的拍賣合約之訂立。 拍賣品之風險及責任 將如載於以 下第7段轉移到買家。 (f) 如拍賣品沒有售出, 拍賣官會宣佈該拍賣品為“流拍”, “撤回”, “送回賣家”。 (g) 任何於拍賣會後的拍品買賣均受業務規定及著作保證所限制, 如同拍品於 拍賣會中出售。
6 購買價及付款 (a) 買家同意支付本公司除每件拍賣品之落槌價以外,亦會支付本公司酬金及所有適 用稅項及費用。買家應支付酬金費率為:拍賣品落槌價首港幣7,500,000元之27%, 加逾港幣7,500,000元以上至港幣50,000,000元部份之21%;加逾港幣 50,000,000元之餘款的14.5%計算。富藝斯保留用酬金支付介紹佣金予一個或多個 協助拍品於拍賣會中售出的第三方之權利。 (b) 付款須由發票抬頭人,以港元及按照發票上之詳細銀行資 料以電匯方式支付。 請提及相關發票號碼。不論是否打算申請該拍品的進出口證或其他許可證,均需在 拍賣後立即付款。逾期付款將被收取年利率12%的利息。 (c) 如果您是首次於網上競投的新客戶,為安全理由,您將必須以電匯支付您的拍品, 這是富藝斯就所有網上競投的新客戶的標準政策。 為方便之前曾競投或於富藝斯拍賣會購買的客戶,富藝斯將接受以美國運通卡,Visa, 萬事達卡及銀聯卡繳付每場拍賣最多港幣80萬元之發票。 (d) 所購拍賣品之擁有權將於富藝斯全數收取後方可轉移。富藝斯概無責任將拍賣品 交給買家直至拍賣品之擁有權已轉移,且已獲提供適當確認而提早交付不會影響擁有 權之轉移或買家支付買入價之無條件責任。 7 提取拍賣品 (a) 富藝斯直至確認全數收取及買家於富藝斯或其附屬公司 沒有欠款,包括任何根據 以下第8(a)段所述需繳之任何費用; 及我們滿意買家所需其他條款後((包括向本公司 提供所需之資料與文件,用於客戶的盡職調查、「認識客戶」合規驗證檢查,並完成反 洗黑錢、反恐怖主義之財務及制裁審查),會將拍賣品交予買家。買家在完成以上全部 條件後,應致電+852 2318 2000以安排領取拍賣品。 (b) 買家須於拍賣後7天內安排提取拍賣品。 拍賣後所有拍品會被儲存在外。如欲提取 拍品,煩請與我們運輸部聯絡, 電話:+852 2318 2000。未能提取的拍品均會被收取 有關轉移,利息,儲存等相關費用。已買之拍賣品之風險,包括投保責任由買家承擔, 由(I) 領取; 或(II) 拍賣會後7天, 以較早日期為準。 直到風險轉移, 富藝斯 將就拍賣品 之任何損失或損毀向買家支付賠償, 惟以所付之買入價為最高限額,並受我們一般 損失或損毀拍賣品安排所限制。 (c) 為方便客戶,富藝斯可在不另收費下,包裝拍賣品作手提用。我們並不會提供包 裝、 處理、保險及付運服務。我們可依據買家之指示與付運代理(不論是否由富藝斯所 建議)協調及促成閣下於本公司購買貨物之包裝、處理、保險及付運於富藝斯所購的拍 賣品。買家須承擔所有任何指示之風險及責任,本公司將不會負責或承擔其他的包裝 員 或運送員之行為及遺漏引致的任何責任。當買家或代表買家的第三方運送人士在富 藝斯業務地點接收拍賣品時,即代表拍賣品已被買家提取。買家須負責支付任何進口 關稅 和拍賣品因進口到最終目的地所須付的當地稅項。 (d) 富藝斯在將拍賣品交予買家或買家之授權於代表前,要求出示政府發出之身份證明。 8 未提取拍品 (a)倘買家支付全數但未有於拍賣會後30天內提取拍賣品,買家將會被收取逾期提取 費用。 每件未提取的拍品費用為每天港幣80元。 我們在全數收到該些費用後方會將 拍賣品交予買家。 (b) 倘已繳付拍品,但未於拍賣會後6個月內提取該拍品, 則買家授權富藝斯(經通知 後) 安排以拍賣或私人出售以重售該物品,而估價及底價將由富藝斯酌情決定。除非 買家在該拍賣會後兩年內收取該出售之所得款項扣除存倉費及任何其他買家欠富藝斯 或其附屬公司之所有費用, 否則該筆款項將被沒收。 9 欠繳款之補償方法 (a) 在不影響賣家可能擁有之任何權利之情況下,倘買家在未預先協定之情況下未能在 拍賣會後7天內悉數繳付拍賣品購入價,富藝斯可全權決定行使以下一項或多項補救 方法: (I)將拍賣品貯存在其處所或其他地方,風險及費用完全由買家承擔; (II)取消該 拍賣品之銷售,保留購入價任何部分繳款作為違約金; (III)拒絕買家未來作出之競 投或 使其就未來之競投須支付保證金; (IV)收取由到期日至悉數收取買入價當日期間 按 每 年12%之利率計算之利息; (V)對買家由富藝斯所管有之任何物品行使留置權及指 示富 藝斯附屬公司對其管有買家之任何物品行使留置權。在知會買家後,並在發出該 通知 之30天後可安排出售該物品,以及將所得款項用以支付結欠富藝斯或其附屬公司扣 除本公司標準賣家佣金,所有其他有關費用及任何適用稅項; (VI)以拍賣或私人出售重 售該拍賣品,而估價及底價將由富藝斯合理地酌情決定。倘該重售之價格低於該拍賣 品之落槌價及買家應支持之酬金,買家將仍須承擔該差額,連同該重售產生之所有 費用。(VII)展開法律訴訟,以收回該拍賣品之落槌價及買家應支持之酬金,連同 利息 及該訴訟之費用; (VIII)以富藝斯或其附屬公司結欠買家之任何金額抵消買家就拍賣品 結欠富藝斯之任何金額; (IX) 向賣家透露買家之名稱及地址, 使賣家可展開法律訴訟, 以收回欠款及申索法律費用; 或(X)採取本公司認為適當及需要之任何行動。
