We might say Breguet stands as an unicum in the universe of horology: ever since its foundation in 1775, the french-swiss maison has kept true to its origins, almost stubbornly: the aesthetics of its watches are immediately recognizable, thanks to timeless details such as the fluted caseband, the refined guilloché pattern of the dials and the identitary “Breguet” hands. It seems, however, that the collecting world still hasn’t learn to fully love this profound coherence, which we personally believe to be the brand’s strength - together of course with the absolute mechanical quality. Therefore, at this very moment a Breguet watch is one of the best investments one could make. Today, we present you a yellow gold chronograph from the reference 3237, powered by a Lemania derived caliber unanimously considered one of the best chrono movements ever built. Refined according to the highest standards, it is placed in plain sight through the display caseback. The watch is preserved in pristine conditions, and shows a rich original patina on the yellow gold case, a further proof of its untouched conditions.

We treat our customers with the finest and rarest pieces that horology has to offer. So, what’s exactly going on with this solid gold and diamond bracelet? Well, only if and when you’ll decide, you can open the secret compartment and the Omega logo will proudly appear. Inside, a small hand-wound movement is responsible for making this splendid craftsmen’s masterpiece into a functional watch. Ladies, you don’t need anyone to gift you anything: treat yourself with this utterly rare jewel. With an inner diameter of 16.5 cm, this spectacular timepiece comes with its original full set of box and papers.

The Rolex Daytona ref. 16520 is a remarkable timepiece, representing a significant milestone in the history of Rolex chronographs. Equipped with the automatic calibre 4030 on a Zenith base and housed in a larger case with improved water resistance, it stands as a testament to Rolex's commitment to innovation and quality. During the mid-1990s, an intriguing incident occurred, where certain batches belonging to the S, N, T, and W series inadvertently featured sub-registers coated with Zappon varnish. Over time, this varnish underwent a captivating transformation, transitioning from a pristine white to a delicate light brown, eventually developing into a rich dark brown hue. These distinctive dials, fondly named 'Patrizzi' after the Italian auctioneer who discovered this captivating detail, have become highly sought-after collectibles. In the present day, the allure of these 'defective' dials has grown exponentially, making them a crucial aspect to consider when acquiring a first-series Rolex Daytona 16520. This particular timepiece, hailing from 1996, is a rare gem in incredible condition, accompanied by the original box set and papers. Undoubtedly, it represents one of the finest examples available in the market. For collectors seeking the most desirable of the 16520s, this Rolex Daytona ref.16520 Patrizzi from 1996 is an exceptional find. Its distinctive and ever-evolving dial, along with its pristine condition and complete documentation, makes it a truly coveted addition to any discerning watch enthusiast's collection. Embrace the legacy of horological excellence and elegance with this extraordinary Rolex Daytona Patrizzi from 1996.

Despite being an independent watchmaker, De Bethune is well known by the broader public thanks to his spectacular creations, where horological mastery and eclectic design are fused together and rendered in avant-garde cases, heat or chemically treated to shine in the strangest and brightest finishes. The watch we’re offering today is maybe the most sought after amongst De Bethune’s creations: it’s the DB28 Tourbillon, characterized by the 12 o’ clock winding crown and by the hollowed, slanted lugs. The dial is partially skeletonised, and the movement can be seen underneath it. But what makes the piece truly special is the case, dial and movement finishing: they are blued-out through a heat treatment. The look of the watch is something really unique, and makes it one of the most particular creations of independent watchmaking. Manufactured and sold in 2021, the watch is preserved in great conditions and delivered as a full set.

The manual winding Daytonas hold a significant place in the realm of vintage watch collecting, making them a popular choice for both newcomers and seasoned collectors alike. That being said, it's evident that not all configurations are equal, leading to substantial price variations between different specimens. As is customary with vintage watches, the condition is a driving factor for collectors, and our 6265 in gold stands out as an exceptional and sought-after piece. The conditions of this timepiece are truly remarkable and well-preserved, adding to its allure and desirability. Gold examples, being rarer than their steel counterparts, evoke a special feeling when handled, especially when found in such an incredible, like-new old stock condition like our watch. Discovering such exquisitely preserved timepieces is a rarity, and it becomes an even more valuable find when accompanied by its original box and Italian papers dating back to 1987.

We’re thrilled to present the exceptional Patek Philippe ref. 5004 in Platinum, a watch that transcends rarity and sophistication. While any ref. 5004 is already an extraordinary find, finding one in Platinum is akin to stumbling upon horological treasure. Produced in incredibly limited numbers, this Platinum variant is a true dream for discerning collectors and connoisseurs. Crafted with meticulous attention to detail in 1995, the ref. 5004 showcases a harmonious blend of technical brilliance and timeless elegance. Its Platinum construction adds an air of exclusivity, making it a cherished gem in the world of luxury timepieces. At the heart of this masterpiece lies the revered Lemania-based Patek Philippe Caliber CHR 27-70 Q, a horological marvel that powers an impressive set of complications. The perpetual calendar function elegantly tracks the date, day, month, and leap year, requiring no manual adjustment until the year 2100 – a testament to Patek Philippe's commitment to longevity. The split seconds chronograph feature adds a layer of technical brilliance, enabling precise measurement of intermediate times. Whether timing a race or any other event, this remarkable complication showcases the watch's versatility and engineering excellence. Captivating in its intricacy, the moon phase indicator graces the dial, depicting the lunar cycle with artistic charm. Accompanied by the 24-hour indicator, it offers a glimpse of day and night, further enriching the watch's appeal. With the Patek Philippe ref. 5004 in Platinum on your wrist, you are not just wearing a watch; you are carrying a symbol of prestige, sophistication, and innovation.

The Rolex Day-Date ref. 18028 with its black ammonite dial and diamond-set hour markers is a true statement of style and prestige. Wearing one means carrying around a piece of watchmaking history and a rare and precious natural gemstone. The black ammonite dial is one of nature's works of art: the fossil stone, with its unique iridescent veins, gives the dial an iridescent play of colours that gives it a magnetic and incomparable appeal. Ammonite is known for never being the same in any two examples, making this Rolex Day-Date an exclusive one-of-a-kind piece. Hour markers at six and nine o'clock in Arabic numerals add a touch of sophistication to the dial, and each index is enhanced by a skillfully set diamond. These perfectly positioned diamonds catch the light gracefully, illuminating the watch and emphasising its unparalleled beauty.

If you are looking for a unique watch that stands out for its extraordinary beauty, then look no further: this Rolex Day-Date is the perfect choice.

This Rolex represents for all intents and purposes a collector's treasure from the wonderful 1950s, reminiscent of field watches made during wartime, where the functionality of the iconic Oyster case perfectly accompanies the "railroad" minute track and 12 printed Arabic numeral hour markers. The white dial has developed a warm ivory color over the years, beautifully filling in the negative spaces of the dial, accompanying the beauty of the blued hands, a refined heat treatment now almost in disuse due to its complexity, but highly prized in the golden age of watchmaking. The curvature of the case back, necessary to accommodate the rotor of the cal. 775 automatic mechanism, earned it the nickname "Ovettone," or "Bubble back." A combination of many wonderful details and high collector's value, however, this watch has an undeniable overall appeal that goes far beyond the mere sum of its components.

The future of Patek Philippe and the Patek Philippe of the future are embodied in this incredible timepiece. Famous for its elaborate mechanisms, Patek wanted to incorporate not only an annual calendar into this Ref. 5905, but also an entire flyback chronograph. The task of conducting this orchestra is entrusted to the splendid automatic calibre 28-520 QA 24H, the beauty of which we can admire through the exhibition case back. A modern timepiece with an unmistakable yet refined beauty, thanks to the spectacular play of light of the soleil finish on its green dial. If you want a glimpse of the Patek Philippe of tomorrow while celebrating its history, this incredible Ref. 5905 is undoubtedly the perfect watch for you.

The introduction of the Daytona automatic in 1988 represented a radical change in Rolex's family of chronographs. In addition to the obvious mechanical differences, in fact, the new watches had a completely different style from what had been seen until then: the subdials no longer contrasted with the dial. The difference remained until a new type of dial arrived in the new gold Daytonas, such as this 116518 from 2012. The watch is fitted with its original strap plus a second one supplied, and is kept in perfect condition with its complete set of box, warranty and official Rolex service. It is a young and sporty version of the world's most desired chronograph!

In the world of watches, and especially of their collecting, there are nicknames capable of making every collector's ears prick up. These are often Italian terms coined by collectors from the Bel Paese in the years when it was Italy that dominated and directed the world market for timepieces: "Padellone", “Piccolino", "Ovetto" are just some of these nicknames. This watch, a Rolex 6085, is an Ovettone, meaning a watch with a domed screw-down case back, reminiscent of an eggshell and of decidedly generous dimensions for the time: hence the origin of its iconic nickname. Produced in 1951, the watch is in phenomenal condition: the galvanic black dial, the 36-millimetre case and the massive gold 'brick' bracelet are beautifully preserved, making this 6085 one of the best examples on the market.

Speaking of the Patek Philippe Nautilus, one of the main distinctions to be made is between the two-piece and three-piece cases: the former, associated with Gerald Genta's original design, is the most loved and sought after by collectors. It is not difficult to distinguish them by looking at the watches, but even simpler is to base it on the reference number: the '3' has a two-piece case, while the '5' has a newer three-piece case. That is why this watch is so special, or at least one of the reasons why it is so special. Indeed, it is also the first Nautilus to display moon phase and power reserve together in an asymmetrical yet elegantly balanced and proportionate dial. Lastly, the immaculate conditions of this splendid timepiece are completed by the fact that it is accompanied by its original full set, dated 2006 and includes every accessory.

If you want the absolute best, this Daytona is the perfect piece for your collection!

The case serial number correctly begins with 'R' and the bezel is the rare and coveted '200 UPH'. Inside, of course, beats the calibre 4030, Rolex's interpretation of the Zenith El Primero. We are delighted to offer this precious piece of horological history in fantastic condition, accompanied by its complete box and warranty set.

The monopoussoir is a refined old-school complication, unfortunately too often forgotten for its incredible complexity, where all functions are controlled solely via the crown. Luckily for all collectors and enthusiasts like us, this art has fortunately not been lost. One of the most iconic and best interpreted modern monopoussoirs is undoubtedly the Cartier gem contained in the prestigious Collection Privée Cartier Paris: this is the Cartier Tortue Monopoussoir in yellow gold, available in an ultra-limited quantity and exclusively at Cartier Boutiques.

Released in 2006 to commemorate the 30th anniversary of the Nautilus, the Patek Philippe reference 5711 is inspired by the original reference: the 3700 "Jumbo". Modernised in appearance, without betraying the original personality, the new reference features central seconds and a larger 40 mm case. From the time the ref. 3700 saw the light of day in 1976 until 2021 when the ref. 5711 went out of production, the Nautilus became the most sought-after sports watch ever made by Patek Philippe. This 2010 example, in exceptional condition, features the iconic striped blue dial and comes with its complete original full set.

Bulgari's Octo Finissimo has rightly been celebrated as a new watchmaking icon since its inception. However, this has not (thankfully) stopped Bulgari from dedicating it splendid limited editions, using the harmonious facets and elegant thinness of the Octo Finissimo as a canvas for the creativity of its most important partners. To celebrate the tenth anniversary of its star, the Maison decided to entrust this delicate task to none other than the auction leader: Phillips in association with Bacs and Russo. Gone are the famous asymmetrical seconds at seven o'clock, to make way for a sectorial dial that relies entirely on the symmetry radiating from its central point. A choice of incredible impact, linking the dial and the iconic case with a continuous thread of symmetry, fully enhancing both. The refined fullness and sportiness of the sandblasted titanium construction perfectly contours the dial etching, which magically changes its hue depending on the angle at which it interacts with the sun. As fascinating on the front as on the back, where the personalised caseback allows us to admire the decorations of the incredible BVL 138 calibre, with its breathtaking thinness of only 2.23 mm, and its platinum micro-rotor.

The bond between Rolex and Wimbledon is one of the most renowned, so much so that the crowned house can boast the title of official timekeeper since 1978. And it is to pay tribute to this partnership that in 2009 this special dial was introduced, available on Rolex's most famous and classic model: the evergreen (pun intended) Datejust.

Created by Rolex to be the latest evolution of the manual Daytona family, the reference 6265 is - along with its twin 6263 - one of the few versions of the chronograph housed in an "Oyster" water-resistant case. A perfect blend of vintage and modern, the 6265 combines the charm of a hand-wound movement with the reliability of screw-down pushers.

The Cosmograph Daytona ref.16520 is a milestone in the history of Rolex chronographs thanks to its automatic calibre 4030 on a Zenith base and its new, larger case with increased water resistance. Around the mid-1990s, it is believed that some batches belonging to the S, N, T and W series were accidentally made using a Zappon varnish for the sub-registers. This type of varnish changed colour over time from white to light brown and then to dark brown. In tribute to the Italian auctioneer who discovered this detail, they were nicknamed 'Patrizzi'. Since then, interest in these 'defective' dials - now extremely collectable - has grown so much that nowadays, it has become a decisive feature to look at when buying the first series of Rolex Daytona 16520. This example is in like-new condition, complete with the original box set and warranty dated 1994, making it one of the best examples on the market. If a Patrizzi is the most desirable of the 16520s, this is definitely the Patrizzi to have.

After the 1463 was discontinued in 1968, Patek Philippe did not offer any similar watch for thirty years sharp: it was only in 1998, at Baselworld, that the world got to see another Patek chronograph, the reference 570. Manufactured in all four precious metals until 2009, and inspired in the unique reference 2512, now at the Museum, it’s one of the most loved modern Pateks. Inside is found caliber CH 27-70, derived from the Lemania 2310 and totally reworked by Patek to turn it into one of the most precise, reliable and better finished chronograph movements of the modern era. The movement, decorated with the Geneva seal, can be admired through the clear sapphire caseback. We are delighted to offer this white gold 5070G with matching silvered dial, dating to 2007 and perfectly preserved in all its parts. The watch is complete with its full original set!

Patek Philippe's Nautilus is a watchmaking icon, one of the most desired models in the world. The reasons are clear: the elegance of its sporty case, the ease of pairing it with any ensemble, the joy of being able to wear it on your wrist every day of the year, from the office to the beach. The incredible specimen we have the pleasure of presenting today embodies its most precious version, crafted entirely in 18K rose gold. An intense colour, with a warm charm, perfectly surrounding the black dial decorated with the typical striping. The chronograph is the most sought-after complication, and in this case it is impeccably integrated into the Nautilus silhouette via the two pushers on the side and the positioning of a single register at six o'clock on the dial. Born in 2022, the watch has never been worn, so much so that the stickers on the clasp are still intact. It will therefore be a pleasure reserved for the lucky buyer to create a unique bond with this spectacular timepiece. To complete the experience, this magnificent example comes with the original full set of box and papers.

We have said it many times: Jaeger-LeCoultre is not just Reverso. Of course, saying it is easy, but today we have the pleasure of demonstrating it practically. This stunning Master Control from 2010 is a magnificent example of JLC's superior savoir-faire. Inside the white gold case, we find a fascinating and rare anthracite dial, which enjoys great depth and dynamism thanks to the radial sunburst. This is the canvas on which JLC has embroidered a well-balanced annual calendar with pointer dates, accompanied by a moon phase indicator at six o'clock. The apparently closed case-back is actually hinged on the side like the watches of the turn of the century and can be opened to reveal the splendid movement decorated with solid gold rotor weights. The original white gold deployment clasp is present. There is a reason why Jaeger-LeCoultre is called the watchmaker's watchmaker, and this splendid example clearly demonstrates it. Preserved in impeccable condition, we have the pleasure of accompanying this magnificent watch with its original full set of box and warranty.

The Rolex Datejust is always the perfect watch, with its timeless esthetics and refined size of 36 mm. This is probably why the Government of United Arab Emirates decided to gift them to its officials. From the 1950s to the 1980s, Rolex made different custom dials for many Arab governments, including the well known and desired “UAE Armed Forces” logo in the present watch. This very rare detail is extremely sought-after by collectors, so much so that a lot of counterfeits dials appeared on the market. This is why you always need to trust an expert dealer and we’re more than proud to announce that we were able to source this specimen from 1987 with its original paper and tags. A rare watch per se, these extras are almost impossible to find and are the ultimate prove to the authenticity of this incredible and extremely well-preserved gem.

Finally, it is a pleasure to be able to offer this icon accompanied by its full original box and guarantee set.

Among the most iconic case designs in the history of watchmaking is the so-called ‘cioccolatino’, Italian for “little chocolate”, i.e. a square-shaped watch reminiscent of - precisely - an appetising chocolate treat. But what happens when you have a 'cioccolatino' case in an unusual and above-average size? Collectors call it a ‘cioccolatone’, Italian for “big chocolate”, and it is one of the rarest and most coveted models of all, produced by very few companies and in very few examples. In this case, we have a beautiful Audemars Piguet in pink gold, with a hand-wound movement and champagne dial. The watch, dating from 1952, is preserved in sensational condition. The signature on the dial is perfectly legible, the case is full, and the steps that characterise this fascinating design are vivid and sharp. Specimens like this are not easily found: don't miss out!

When a submariner is not enough, it's time to make room for professionals. That's why the Sea-Dweller was born, introduced by Rolex after the experiments made with COMEX, equipping the new model with a helium escape valve for decompression. A set of new features allowed the watch to reach a maximum depth of more than 600 m, and the new reference officially saw the light of day in 1971. The present specimen, from 1973, boasts the rare "double red" configuration, present only in the early years of production. Indeed, we can observe the transitional inscription "Sea-Dweller / Submariner 2000" in red paint. This detail would later disappear, eventually being replaced by an entirely white inscription without the "submariner" designation. It is, therefore, a pleasure to present such a fascinating watch, a piece of watchmaking history, in excellent condition.

Although Submariner lovers are divided between "date" and "no date," the historical significance of Ref. 1680 is undeniable. Introduced in 1967, this reference represents the first evidence of Submariner with a date display. The present example, made in 1970, belongs to the earliest versions and therefore features the rare and desirable red "Submariner" inscription, later replaced by the all-white graphics. The rarity of the dial, the historical relevance and the perfect degree of preservation make this piece of history a top-level addition to any watch collection.

For a long time, The Royal Oak and the Nautilus, more mainstream, overshadowed the Vacheron Constantin Overseas. While the 222 has now reached a cult status, recognized as an icon of the 1980s, the Overseas has just begun its ascent. Collectors have realized that the Overseas is an incredible piece: designed by Vincent Kaufmann and Dino Modolo, the now-iconic bezel is reminiscent of the Maltese cross, VC’s logo. The elegance, the beautiful movement, and the impeccable quality of this masterpiece are finally shining: a true sports watch combined with the undisputed refinement and craftsmanship typical of Vacheron Constantin. We dedicated a whole article to this watch, explaining why we are convinced that it represents the next big boom in collecting. You can find it in our magazine section, but we are sure the pictures here will be enough to make you fall in love with this watchmaking icon.

Few can be proud of such an influence in the world of collecting as the Royal Oak. First launched in 1972 with a design by Gerald Genta, the original shape is once again brought to life in the reference 15202, the modern version of the 5402, with conservative dimensions of 39 mm and a thickness of just 7 mm. Inside we find what many consider to be the best automatic movement ever produced, AP's cal 2121, finished to the highest standards while being incredibly slim. Sold in 2008, the chapter ring, the AP logo at 12 o'clock and the white frame around the date window allow us to identify this watch as a 'first execution'. This particular layout went out of production in 2012, and prices are already rising... We are pleased to present this watchmaking icon with a fascinating "blue cosmos" dial, in excellent condition and complete with the original box and guarantee set.

Of all the haute horlogerie brands, IWC is perhaps the most unjustly underrated. Generally remembered only for its military watches or large chronographs, many forget the remarkable complications the brand is capable of creating. This 'Romana' is the watch for changing your mind! Introduced in 1994, it was, at the time, the thinnest self-winding perpetual calendar available on the market. Moreover, the 36mm diameter and the noble case material - platinum - make it extremely discreet, elegant and versatile. The simple but well-balanced dial features Roman numerals in black and an uncommon detail for a perpetual calendar: the year display in full. The IWC movement is so refined that it shows the year precisely, without the need for corrections, up to 2499! The watch is offered as a full set, complete with box, warranty and original documentation.

The Rolex Daytona 'Zenith' is a milestone in the history of Rolex chronographs, thanks to the automatic calibre 4030 based on the El Primero and the new oversized case with improved water resistance. Offered in different metals, the yellow gold version had reference 16528. Simply iconic, this watch dates back to the first years of production of the reference, more precisely to 1991. The black dial creates a splendid contrast with the yellow gold case and bracelet, and the red 'Daytona' inscription is a beautiful detail that cannot escape the most attentive eye We are pleased to offer this perfect icon in substantial NOS condition, with a green sticker on the case back and, of course, accompanied by its full set complete with box, documentation and warranty.

The 1970s were a period of experimentation and this Omega De Ville is clearly not your ordinary watch. We’re used to rectangular watches, but we rarely find a case that’s wider than longer: the tiny hands are protected by a box-shaped crystal and powered by a manual wound Omega movement. 
But let’s now talk about the real show-stopper: the bracelet. Crafted in sterling silver, this 4-row double chain provides an undisputed funky and interesting aesthetic that won’t surely go unnoticed. A truly rare watch to find, don’t miss the chance.

The Rolex Datejust is an undisputed icon, and the ref. 6309 marks an historic moment in Datejust history. Merging the formal attire of the traditional gold Datejust and the sportiness of its unique bezel, the “Turn-o-graph” represents a real curiosity in what’s generally a pretty conservative line by Rolex. Dating back to 1954, this reference is the first ever “Turn-o-graph” and, thanks to its impeccable conditions, means that this very watch a real collector’s dream. 
The wonderful leaf hands interact with the pointed applied indexes, while its precious yellow gold theme is then completed by the sublime framing of the date window, the gold prints and applied crown logo, over a deep black dial.
 Take a second (no pun inteded) to admire its beautifully shaped second's hand: unbeliveable, right? A yellow gold Datejust is a must have in every serious collection, and a pristine Turn-o-graph ref. 6309 is the yellow gold Datejust to have.

The ref. 6105, one of the most desired Datejusts, is referred as “Ovettone” (Italian for “Big Egg”) due to its domed caseback. This shape was necessary to accommodate the rotor of the rhodium-plated automatic cal. 296. Highly sought-after by collectors, this example is in incredible conditions, with original jubilee bracelet and Millerighe bezel. The red date is framed in a yellow gold aperture, a detail that creates balance and add a refined touch to the galvanic gilt dial, with applied gold coronet and dart luminous indexes. The yellow gold leaf hands contrast wonderfully with the deep black dial. The size is very modern at 36 mm, not a common choice for 1951-52, when this very example was manufactured. The timeless and refined design, combined with the pleasant size and the impeccable conditions, make this example worth a place in the best gentlemen’s collection.

Introduced shortly after the first diver from Tudor, the ref. 7928 was the first Tudor Submariner to feature crown guards. Loved on the civilian market, the increased water resistance allowed the Tudor ref. 7928 to be chosen by the United States Navy as official watch for its Marines, engaged in the Vietnam War. This very model, built around 1963-64, is an extremely rare survivor of its years in the Navy. From the excellent conditions, we think it was probably issued to an official. The leather strap is a probable clue about a past “Olongapo” bracelet that may have been on the wrist of its owner while on duty. The small-rose logo on the dial is another delightful detail that the real collector will appreciate, replaced by the shield on later examples.

There are many great versions of the iconic Cartier Pasha, but the yellow gold perpetual calendar is one of the most coveted and sought-after. The dial is perfectly balanced and readable, with the immediately recognizable oval moon phase indicator at 12. Its engraved automatic caliber can be admired thanks to the exhibition case back. This watch features the utterly rare and desirable Figaro bracelet, universally considered one of the most comfortable ever created and incredibly desired by Cartier collectors. Great conditions, immensely sought-after bracelet and the actual beauty of the watch make this an opportunity to acquire an horological rarity that shouldn’t be missed.

What will tomorrow's Patek Philippe look like? We don't have a crystal ball, but this spectacular timepiece can provide us with many answers! Famous for its elaborate mechanisms, Patek wanted to incorporate in this Ref. 5960 not only an annual calendar, but an entire flyback chronograph grouped in a single sub-dial at six o'clock, as well as a convenient power reserve. The task of conducting this orchestra is entrusted to the splendid automatic calibre 28-520, the beauty of which we are allowed to admire through the exhibition case back. All this mechanical beauty is encased in a modern 40.5 mm case, combined with a new, extremely comfortable and versatile bracelet. To crown this opportunity, we are pleased to present the watch accompanied by its complete box and guarantee set. If you want a glimpse of the Patek Philippe of tomorrow, while still celebrating its history, this spectacular Ref. 5960 is undoubtedly the perfect watch for you.

"You Never Own a Patek Philippe Timepiece; You Merely Take Care of it for the Next Generation": this was the new marketing strategy that accompanied the launch of reference 5035, an incredible watch created with the aim of combining Patek's heritage traits with a modern design, capable of appealing to all collectors. The iconic luminescent Roman numerals of this reference are here applied to a splendid anthracite dial, whose play of light elegantly contrasts the magnificent case just 11 mm thick. Inside, the calibre 315 animates a practical annual calendar, and its refinement can be admired through the visible case back. The presence of the original full set and the fantastic condition of this timepiece make it possible to fully appreciate the beauty and versatility of this very important watch.

The king of jeweler, the jeweler of kings: so is called Cartier. We dare to add, “the jeweler of distinguished women”. Every lady dreams of Cartier, be it a ring, a bracelet… or a timekeeper! Countless, indeed, are the watches that Cartier designed expressely for the fairer sex. We are pleased to offer a very rare watch from the recent Cartier production: it’s a “La Dona”, meaning “The woman” in Spanish, and is a very elegant stainless steel watch with an integrated interwoven bracelet. Thin, refined and seldom seen, it is the perfect accessory for any lady of class!

Since the launch of the Bvlgari Octo Finissimo a few years ago, its incredibly thin and timeless design has made this model an iconic must-have feature that combines Italian culture with Swiss watchmaking tradition.
It can't be helped: the precious charm of platinum is undeniable, and nothing enhances it like the depth of black. The chromatic interplay between the case and the dial is perfectly continued by the indices and hands, while the iconic seconds at seven o'clock break up the watch's symmetry with inexplicable beauty.
The theme from the dial continues elegantly with the splendid black leather strap, perfectly integrated into the silhouette of the case.

That of the Laureato is a story that, like the best, began during the quartz crisis. In response to the obsolescence of traditional watches, Swiss watchmakers completely transformed watchmaking, creating the concept of the modern sports watch.
Very sporty and modern, the Laureato will feel comfortable during any event: from the most professional to the beach. And so will you. But the icing on the cake of this timepiece is clearly the dial, embellished with fascinating Persian numerals, giving this ultra-limited edition of just 28 pieces an unrivalled charm.

What's the quintessential Rolex watch? Most people would probably answer with the non-date Submariner, and we believe that its most iconic iteration has to be the 5513. The first Submariner with crown guards, it bridges Rolex's past and future, having paved the way for some of the most loved and well received watches in the brand's history. The present example is an all-correctexample dating to 1977, and sports a nice Tritium dial with applied lume plots. It probably served expressly as a tool watch back in the days, as the owner did not keep the box or papers, as it often happened at the time, yet it has been preserved in great original conditions!

Since its inception in 1972, the Audemars Piguet Royal Oak has redefined the concept of watch design. In fact, its bold lines proved to be so timeless that, even after half a century, only some small modifications have been made to the original design, which periodically pops back up in catalogs. The present watch is indeed one of the celebrative remakings of the original 5402 from 1972, launched in 1992 under the reference 14802 to celebrate the twentieth anniversary of the Royal Oak. Our example, sold in 1993, is one of only 700 pieces made in steel; it features the correct “small AP” dial with the iconic black tapisserie motif and is accompanied by its original box.

Often addressed as the most important Rolex creation ever, the Daytona lineage represents for sure the object that gave birth to the collecting world as we know it today. The very first generation of this illustrious family is known worldwide as "manual Daytona" and its most eminent member is surely the "Paul Newman" dial and screw-down pushers iteration. Our example pushes this non plus ultra combination even further, bearing a completely tropicalized minute track, an exceptionally rare feature only seen in less than five examples worldwide.

Some people's love for Rolex has faded over the years, because the Maison - so they say - has given up the audacious experimentation of the past decades in favour of a static and pretty monotonous collection. While we still love the Geneva brand, we can certainly hear their point, especially while handling this piece. It is a Day-Date reference 18048, aptly nicknamed "Pleiades" by collectors for the mesmerizing mesmerizing constellation of princess cut diamonds set on the dial. Coming in different colours including silver and champagne, the Pleiades dial certainly looks best in black, since the contrast between the plate and the clear stones. This watch furthermore sports a factory-set bezel, which is not commonly seen on this configuration and adds to the charm of the piece. We are glad to offer it in practically unworn conditions! Get it now!

As Phillips’ said “In the hierarchy of collectible Universal Geneve wristwatches, the present split-seconds chronograph occupies the very top position in terms of rarity, desirability and importance”. Universal Geneve was considered to be among the finest watchmakers of the first decades of the 20th century, and it’s easy to understand why.
Manufactured in the 1950s on the requirements of the Italian Air Force, the dial displays an unusual 24-hours time, as used in the military. The split second movement is based on a modified Valjoux 55, cased in an enormous 44.5 mm case, for ease of readability during combat missions.
 Imported by the Italian dealer "A. Cairelli", it’s believed to be produced in not more than 50 pieces. An incredibly rare find, it’s made even rare by the immaculate conditions of the case.

You know what you’re thinking: “this isn’t much more than a Royal Oak hommage”. But in reality, the Girard Perregaux Laureato is definitely more than that, as it pre-dates the Nautilus to be one of the earliest competitors to the AP watch. Originally launched in 1975, and pretty much unchanged since, the Laureato sports an octagonal bezel and an integrated bracelet, and has been implemented with a number of complications over the years. The present watch is indeed a chronograph, showing screw-down pushers and three counters on its signature blue tapisserie dial. It comes in like new conditions, complete with its full set.

Grand Seiko celebrates its 55 years of excellence with this limited edition of 550 pieces only, whose revolutionary Spring Drive mechanism boasts a power reserve of up to 5 days. While Japan's finest micro-engineers were in charge of creating the sensational caliber, where the hand glides effortlessly to symbolize the flow of life, the stunning dial was crafted by the most skilled artisans, engaged in the eternal quest for the perfect marriage of aesthetic beauty and material perfection. There is no doubt about it: this exceptional timepiece is the perfect piece for those in search of absolute perfection in every respect, the only standard to which the Japanese people can conform. After all, it is no coincidence that "Seiko" is the Japanese word for "excellence".

Manual winding Daytonas embody one of the landmarks of vintage watch collecting and nowadays represents one of the first choices either for beginners and seasoned collectors. Despite not being such a rare sight, it is true that not every configuration is created equal, hence the dramatic price gap that might occur between two specimen. As always happens with vintage watches, condition is what drives collectors mad and what makes our example of 6265 in gold so special and desirable. Being much rarer than its steel counterparts, gold examples trigger a special feeling whenever you handle them, especially when they are preserved in like new old stock condition like our watch, which retains even the original sticker on the caseback. Very few example came to us in those state of preservation and even fewer are accompanied by their original guarantee, coming all the way from Italy

Reference 1415HU has been the very first world timer wristwatch ever produced by Patek Philippe. Made in just 115 examples, very few specimen have reappeared and even fewer show a good state of preservation. Our example offers an unparalleled quality both case and dial wise, and is recognised as one of the best yellow gold example to grace on the market in recent years.

Manufactured for the pilots of Japan's legendary air force during World War II, the Seikosha Tensoku-Dokei ("Celestial Watch") follows the traditional requirements for pilot's watches of the 1940s: a splendid dial with high readability, no frills, a large onion-shaped crown that can be operated with gloves on, and a very generous 48 mm case to ensure resistance and ease of reading in any extreme conditions. Nicknamed the "Kamikaze", because of the tragic fate reserved for many of these watches and their owners, it is easy to understand the incredible rarity of finding an example, even in poor condition. This timepiece is a splendid piece of history that we have the pleasure of offering in perfect museum condition, and is therefore an event of unquestionable uniqueness.

That of the Patek Philippe ref. 3587 is one of watchmaking's most beloved silhouettes: launched in 1970, its funky appearance fully reflects the style of its era. The 43 mm case is a necessary adaptation to accommodate the rare and world-famous Beta-21 caliber, the first quartz movement produced in Switzerland by a consortium of more than twenty competing companies, including Patek Philippe of course, united in an effort to beat the Japanese. Its presence on the wrist is amplified by the stunning blue dial, which perfectly accompanies the white gold case and bracelet, preserved in exceptional condition. Not the usual icon, as a Submariner or Royal Oak may be, but there is no doubt that this is a horological milestone and the perfect watch if you are looking for something unique.

Rolex introduced its most famous iteration of the manual winding Daytona, being them 6263 and 6265, between 1970 and 1971. Earliest example are sometimes overlooked compared to the famous "big red" configuration, however they equally charming and historically relevant. Even more if you manage to find an example aged like ours, which has developed a stunning brown tone. Collector really prize "tropical" dials, since they show unparalleled charme and are actually extremely rare to find. Our timepiece bearing 2.6 million case gathers all the peculiarities a collector can look for when he is looking for an early manual Daytona.

Between the 30’s and the 60’s the Movado manufacturer has been one of the foremost makers for professional and military watches. Beside their iconic chronographs equipped with Borgel cases and anti-slide pushers, Movado gifted us with some beautifully designed time-only, which offers a multitude of different designs. However the ones that really spark the interest of the collectors are those equipped with a “military style” dial and case. Our example is equipped with an highly unusual oversize steel case, which gives a huge presence on the wrist.  Dial-wise the watch shows a rare black dial with radium numerals, a very desirable configuration for collectors. Very few example of such examples, especially with this level of quality, have ever appeared on the market, hence the great chance for refined enthusiast to add one of the most peculiar time-only of its era.

Universal Geneve once was one of the most important watchmakers, crafting some of the finest chronographs on the market. 
The brand is now defunct, but its luster never vanished to the eyes of connoisseurs. Chosen by many armed forces around the world, Universal Geneve specialized in the realization of what, at the time, used to be “oversized” timepieces, developed for aviators. The specimen we’re pleased to offer fully embodies the spirit of the 1940s, with a clean aesthetics, legible dial and wonderful syringe hands. Perfect conditions and the rarity of this tri-counter configuration make this piece the perfect choice for a gentleman’s collection.

Dating back to the 1940s, this wonderful and rare Vacheron Constantin Triple Calendar is a true connoisseur’s dream. The incredibly limited production of VC means that its master watchmakers can focus on impeccable details, like the champagne dial and pointed-drop shaped lugs of this fine complicated timepiece. Elongated pencil hands indicates the time in a very discreet manner, while a red pointer is in charge of telling the current date. Two perfectly executed and balanced windows display the day and the month, while applied gold roman indexes and dots contrast the recess of the windows. The perfectly smooth operation of all the functions is entrusted to the beautiful caliber P495: its decoration and layout are the among the finest examples of the masterful savoir faire of the traditional Swiss watchmaking, of which Vacheron Constantin is one of the highest exponents.

It's hard not to come up with the Reverso when thinking of the most iconic watches in the history of horology. The small rectangular watch, with its peculiar hinged case and swinging face, is indeed one of the most famous and oldest dating timekeepers - having been introduced by Jaeger-LeCoultre as far back as 1931. The present Reverso can be considered part of the ealy production of the model, and dates back to the 1940s. Furthermore, its black military-style dial, paired to the radium-filled dagger hands and center sweep seconds, make it a very rare and desirable configuration. It is preserved in fully original conditions, and shows an interesting monogram on the caseback which we were able to identify as the crest of a noble family from Belgium. Vintage Reversos don't get much better than this: don't miss your chance to acquire a superb example of the model!

When someone says “Rolex”, we all picture in our minds the same characteristics: sporty oyster case and bracelet, stainless steel, substantial presence on the wrist, automatic. This Rolex Precision timepiece is anything but that. Integrated to a wonderful flat brick bracelet, this refined Rolex is entirely crafted in solid yellow gold and powered by a thin manual movement. If you want to be precise - like the print on the dial suggests - this is technically a “cocktail watch” rather than a Dress watch… but if you are confident enough, we guarantee that this beautiful timepiece can be worn at any hour of the day.

The earliest Daytona in gold featured two unique configurations, which remained in production for only a very brief period of time. The first dial is the socalled "three lines", meaning it doesn't show the SCOC designation, even if the caliber is already tested as a chronometre. The second version is the present one and embodies the last step before the final configuration. An exceptionally rare occurrance, this dial retains a very peculiar writing positioning, since the "Rolex Oyster" is detached from the SCOC designation, therefore it was later renamed "Oyster Split". Our example retains a 3.3 million serial case, therefore it perfectly fits in the accepted range for those dials. Its great condition increases the rarity of this landmark model and represents an ideal trophy for the discerning collector.

In the middle of the Pacific Ocean, thousands and thousands of miles from any land bigger than a small town, stands the island of Tahiti. You might know it for Gauguin's famous paintings of women on its beaches or, if you're more keen of jewelry and watches, for the fascinating mother of pearl that is sourced there. Rolex, one of the foremost maisons when it comes to natural dials, has used Tahitian mother of pearl in several different watches, all binded together by a common feature: their extreme rarity. Only very few pieces of each reference appear on the market, and this is one. It's a white gold Daytona 116519 from 2004, offered as a full set and sporting an elegant black crocodile strap paired to the stunning pink/greenish tahitian MOP dial. It's a rare chance to own a cool and very rare Daytona!

Introduced at the end of the 30's, reference 2508 represents one of the very first modern chronograph made by Rolex. In addition to that, its design stands as an example of aesthetic balance and beauty with some examples being among the most fascinating chronographs ever made. Reference 2508 remained into production till the mid 40's. Almost 100 years old, our example would impress even the most seasoned collector for the conditions of the case, being it nearly untouched. Together with outstanding state of preservation of the case, this dial is certainly the rarest variant possible. The black colour with lacquered finishing perfectly matches with the stainless steel case, making this example a truly unique chance to acquire one of the very first Rolex's chronograph ever made.

Wittnauer chronographs are some of the most appreciated among collectors, and with this ref. 242T it’s easy to see why. The lume developed a rich walnut tone that perfectly matches the gorgeous black dial, with substantial lume-dots as hours marker and an outer decimal ring. The case is wonderfully sized at 38 mm, perfect for today’s standards, and is in great overall conditions. Never officially confirmed, this reference was submitted by Wittnauer to NASA’s contest to find the watch to equip astronauts with, making the ref. 242T incredibly desirable and sought-after. Powered by the iconic Valjoux 72 caliber, this wonderful timepiece is the perfect representation of what a mid-century chronograph should look like and shouldn't be missed in an historically-relevant chronograph collection.

Introduced at the end of the 30's, reference 2508 represents one of the very first modern chronograph made by Rolex. In addition to that, its design stands as an example of aesthetic balance and beauty with some examples being among the most fascinating chronographs ever made. Reference 2508 remained into production till the mid 40's. Almost 100 years old, our example would impress even the most seasoned collector for the conditions of the case, being it nearly untouched.

The present watch embodies all the romantic flair of the diver-chronograph era from the 1960s, offering all the characteristics that a collector can look for. The gorgeous bi-chromatic bakelite bezel, a feature often absent, appears in impeccable shape and retains all its original charme. Very pleasant at 39 mm, the size was surely oversized for its era, but appears perfectly appropriate for today’s standards. Inside, a classic manual Valjoux 7736 caliber ensures a reliable function of its two counters and the gorgeous pink central hand. Small running seconds are featured at nine.

It's not a secret that, over the years, Rolex has produced an immense number of different Day-Date iterations. Their flagship "President" watch ranges indeed from the simplest, white gold-silver dial version, to the funkies, flashiest and most outstanding gem-set configurations. Gem set versions exist also of the already rare "Oysterquartz" Day-Date, a line that Rolex kept in production from the 1980s to the early 2000s and was powered by one of the most precise, refined and well executed quartz movement ever designed. The present Day-Date is one of those, and has a series of uncommon features that make it possibly unique: the wooden dial with diamond markers, the factory set diamond bezel and the matching President bracelet with paved central links. It's a great occasion to own one of the most attractive and rare quartz Day-Dates ever made!

The original reference launched by Audemars Piguet back in 1972, when the Maison asked Gerald Genta to design an “unprecedented watch”: the first, the ref. 5402. Described by Genta himself as the masterpiece of his career, the iconic Royal Oak ref. 5402 embodies the perfect balance between function and refined design. The petite tapisserie dial features the AP logo at 6, as only first models from the B series do. Only around 1000 pieces from the b-series were manufactured, with just the first examples featuring this detail and even fewer in yellow gold. Yes, the watch we’re offering you is a pretty rare one indeed. The yellow gold case is sharp and its 39 mm sit wonderfully on the wrist. The bracelet is tight and in excellent conditions. It’s powered by the famous automatic cal. 2121, to date the thinnest full-rotor automatic caliber in production and still used in the contemporary Royal Oak ref. 15202. This incredibly rare watch comes with the fullest original set possible: box, papers and even the original purchase receipt from the AD.

Breguet is one of the most respected maisons in haute horlogerie, and this stunning timepiece is the perfect explanation. The timeless design of its 35mm gold case is framed by coin-edge decoration to accommodate the marvelous dial with multiple guilloché finishing. Indication of time, perpetual calendar, equation of time and power reserve is accomplished through blued hands, including the famous Breguet-shaped. These fine complications are provided by the automatic skeletonized caliber Cal. 502 QPET, whose hand-engraving can be admired through the exhibition case back. The overall condition of this precious timepiece is impeccable, the only acceptable ones to fully enjoy this horological masterpiece.

In the era of large, stainless steel sports watches, most people think dress watches are a think of the past - outfashioned and somehow boring. While that ultimatley depends on one’s taste, some of these old watches have the power to warm the heart of even the more sceptical collector. The present Zenith is indeed such a watch: dating back to the early Seventies, it is hand wound and housed in a fancy yellow gold “flying saucer” style case, with a matching gold tone dial. The absence of a seconds hand and the minimal graphics on the dial - just the “Zenith” name and a little applied gold star, make it extremely sophisticated and elegant.

Hermes has, for more than a century, been one of the most famous names in the fashion world. An undisputed symbol of Parisian luxury and style, Hermes has defined the style of its prestigious customers with bags, scarves, leather goods and, of course, watches. This splendid timepiece represents all the Parisian flair of the 1950s, preserved in excellent condition that still promises to give unparalleled charm to its lucky owner.

The Centigraphe Souverain represents one of the most coveted and incredible creations of F.P. Journe, who is in fact the leading and most desired independent watchmaker in today's market. Its breath-taking solid gold chronographic mechanism, that can be admired via the exhibition case back, is capable of measuring time spans with a precision up to 1/100th of a second.

The inception of the automatic Rolex Daytona in 1988 represented a dramatic change in Rolex's chronograph family. Apart from the obvious mechanical difference, indeed, the new course of style was radically different from what had been seen earlier, since the Daytona no longer had contrasting subdials. This was until a new dial design found its way inside gold Daytonas like this 116518 from 2007. Champagne subdials contrast against the black dial, with the icing on the cake being the red accents provided by the chronograph hand and the outer minute track. The watch is fitted on its factory original Oysterflex rubber band, and is perfectly preserved in full set conditions. It's a very sporty and fresh take on the most sought after chronograph in the world!

Travel time watches are icons frome a long gone era: a time when commercial transoceanic flights were an absolute novelty, and more and more people were moving between different time zones for work or leisure. Keeping efficient track of time back home was essential to make phone calls at the office, greet your family without waking them up in the middle of the night and generally just knowing what time it was on the other side of the planet. While some, like Rolex or even Patek with its world timers approached the matter in a spectacular way, with rotating bezels, colourful dials and names of exotic cities, other watches had a definitely understated approach to travel time keeping. It is the case of this beautiful and discreet Patek Philippe reference 2597, which at first glance might seem nothing more than a regular 570 Calatrava. Cased in a coin-edge yellow gold case, a sharp set of Dauphine hands marks hours and minutes, while running seconds are placed at six. Then, when you need it, a click on the pushers on the left side of the case will make a third hand jump one hour back or ahead, to mark a second time zone. When you fly back home, it will go back concealed under the main hour hand, and your watch will be the ultimate everyday sleeper.

Introduced in 1959 and kept in catalogues for 21 years, until 1980, the reference 1675 was the longest produced GMT in the history of Rolex, bridging the gap between old 6542 and the more modern five-digits models. Made iconic by the "Pepsi" red and blue bezel, it was produced with a wide variety of dials replacing each other over the years. The present watch, firmly placed in 1979 by its 5.7 million serial number, is correctly fitted with a matte "Mark 4" dial, with a clear, easily readable and well balanced layout - possibly the most contemporary of the whole 1675 production. Furthermore, this example has perfectly preserved prints, with no signs of fading and a light, even and pleasant patina to the lume plots and the tritium in the hands. The watch is a time capsule example delivering the very best of vintage Rolex production. It is a great occasion to own and enjoy a virtually untouched GMT Master 1675, one of Rolex's most loved models ever.

The Rolex Datejust ref. 6605 is among the rarest of all Datejust history, given its production span of just 3 years from 1956 and 1959. The present example we’re offering today was manufactured in 1958, right in the middle of the short life of this reference. The beautiful and iconic 18kt yellow gold oyster case is in great shape for its over 60 years. Its flat bezel is the perfect frame for the dial, non-luminous, featuring a gilt print and dagger indexes. Wonderful in every occasion, the ref. 6605 is a watch that’s still a great sign of elegance and it’ll still be for decades to come.

Sometimes, a watch doesn't need to bear a coveted name on the dial to be an over-the-top collector's item. That is the case with this Election chronograph, likely produced around the mid 1940s and delivering every imaginable feature for a chronograph of the era. First and foremost, the dial is an extremely refined and well preserved two-tone black mirror gilt. The gold prints are crisp and legible, and the arabic numerals are designed in a beautiful ornate and dynamic font. Besides the hours and minutes track, the watch features two different scales: the inner one is a telemetre, the outer one is instead tachymetric. Then, the steel case: oversized for the time, and still very contemporary, it is a sought-after and seldom seen "clamshell" case, meaning that the caseback is not snap-on nor screw-down, but is rather held in place by four screws concealed behind the lugs. Inside the caseback, a "Brevet 189190" inscription confirms that the case is crafted after the original 1937 patent by Schmitz Freres and co. Finally, the beating heart of this amazing chronograph is a Valjoux 22 movement, one of the most appreciated and technically refined chronographic calibers in history - as much as it was even chosen by Patek Philippe to be the cornerstone of their ébauches, finding its place inside the coveted references 130, 1463, 1579 and so on.

Universal Geneve was considered to be among the finest watchmakers of the first decades of the 20th century, and this incredible Compur is a confirm. The stainless steel case is just over 35 mm and features a beautiful flat bezel and square pushers. Conditions are unbelievable. The extremely clean dial developed a charming cream tone,  complementing beautifully the light-blue telemetric scale and the central snail scale. A warm patina on the luminous paint contrast wonderfully with the blued lozenge hands. We can identify the year of manufacture as 1934, given the print “Universal Watch” on the dial. Thanks to its oversized case - very contemporary - and clean appearance, this chronograph is the perfect watch for the tasteful collector that’s looking for a great piece to wear.

Longines is considered to be the creator of many of the best chronographs of the last century, and the 13ZN has been described as one of the most beautiful and sophisticated movements to date. Launched in 1936, this movement allowed the wearer – mostly pilots – to reset the chronograph without the need to first stop the movement, a feature called “Flyback Chronograph”. Another prestige feature is the column wheel, for a perfect and precise operation. This historical movement is housed in this beautiful and rare “Tre Tacche” case in excellent conservation state, manufactured in the 1940s. The charming matte black dials features Arabic luminous numerals, while the lumed hands are a hybrid between syringe and pencil. All the luminous paint turned to a beautiful and even toasted tone. The extreme rarity, the details and perfect conditions make this watch worth of the greatest chronograph collections.

Watchmaking in the 40s was really focused on brevets, since the brands wanted to beat the competitors by introducing technical novelties that would help users in their daily life. The Aero-Compax has been certainly one of the most surprising brevets achieved, consisting in the addiction of a sub-dial that registers an important time for the user. It was regulated through an additional crown put on the left profile of the case. The production started in 1940, although the brevet was only registered in 1944. What we have for sale definitely makes justice to the model's importance, coming with a very rare black dial and all the correct graphical features. Movement-wise the Aero-Compax housed various in-house calibres with the most-common being the 287, while our watch do encases a rare cal.285 with gilt finishings. The peculiar case shows sharp edges and together with the pump pushers and the black dial makes this specimen the rarest configuration you can find on a Areo-Compax.

For a long time, the Rolex 5512 has been the only diver's watch offered by Rolex with a COSC movement, a detail made evident by the two additional lines of text appearing on the dial below the depth rating. This improvement made it way more expensive - and, in perspective, rarer nowadays - than its non-COSC sibling ref. 5513. The present example was manufactured in 1967 and still retains great overall conditions. The dial is a very desirable and sought-after “Meters first”, where we can see the depth indicated as “200 m = 660 ft”. Another rare detail is that the dial is “gilt”, meaning that the prints are realized using gold paint. Rare and collectible features, but the wonderful shade of brown that the dial acquired over time (also referred as “tropical”) is a non-replicable and mesmerizing detail. Given the general desirability of this reference, the amazing shape and incredible (and unique) details of this piece make it a special and rare catch for every collector.

Launched in 1952 as the heir to the famous ref.565, the Patek Philippe Calatrava 2533 improved the aestethics of its predecessor while keeping true to the origins with a screwback 35mm case and the hand wound caliber 27SC. The casemaker was, in this case, Charles Dubois (170 in a hammer head). Despite a decennial production, only about 400 examples of the reference were manufactured overall, making it extremely rare and sought after by discerning collectors. The present example is certainly amongst the better preserved ones, with vivid edges on the yellow gold case and an absolutely untouched dial, as proven by the strong accent above the second "E" in Genéve.

All Pre-Extra Fort chronograph by Eberhard are rare and desired by collectors… but some are even more. This wonderful Pre-Extra Fort Tricompax Rattrapante is one of the most stunning and rare pieces a collector can find. Impeccably preserved from the early 1940s, this 18kt yellow gold manual chronograph feature one of the most sought-after complications: the rattrapante chronograph. When activated, the second, perfectly hidden chronograph hand splits and allows the owner to measure two different records. The best part? The caseback is hinged, so you can have a look to this wonderful and masterfully executed mechanism. The rare “Tricompax” configuration and the slide at 4 (exactly, that’s not a pusher) complete this incredible and highly desirable chronograph that shouldn’t be missed in a gentleman’s collection.

The predecessor to the Daytona, the ref. 6238 aka “Pre-Daytona” was shortly produced by Rolex from 1962 to 1969, in what’s believed to be under 2500 pieces. Due to its scarcity and historical relevance, the “Pre-Daytona” is highly sought-after by collectors. This example dates to 1963 and features the beautiful first series Dauphine hands. The dial is in flawless conditions, with a charming cream tone and the correct “Swiss” print. The case, the pump pushers and the bracelet are in excellent conditions. Inside, the mythical manual chronographic Caliber 72B is in perfect running state. The perfect reference to complete every chronograph collection, this example is surely the one to go for.

This beautiful Eberhard pre-extrafort from the 1940s features a rare version of the split-second chronograph: the pusher hidden in the crown acts as a start, stop and reset. The other pushers are responsible for the split-second operation and the "stop-lock" mechanism. Wonderfuly aged, the case is in sharp conditions and the dial developed a light patina that contrast nicely with the telemetric scale and the snail center scale. Syringe hands and luminous arabic numerals complete this gorgeous, rare and extremely desirable chronograph.

Back in the 1940s, a number of maisons and movement makers started working extensively on the production of reliable yet precise and refinished complicated wristwatches. Besides coveted brands, also some smaller maisons produced watches of extreme quality, paired to flamboyant case designs typical of the era. That's what happens with this 37mm Record Genéve watch.integrating in a striking 37mm two tone case not only a split seconds chronograph, but also an indication of the date and phases of the moon. The beating heart inside this stunning watch is a Venus 185, activated via three pushers at 2, 3 and 4 o' clock. The dial, seemingly untouched, is a lesson in understatement and readability, making the present Record a very wearable and contemporary watch to these days. A period correct two-tone beads of rice bracelet completes the look of this rare and appealing watch.

Calatrava Reference 570 was presented in 1938 as a larger version of the already celebrated ref. 96. The perfect size and the highly legible dial made it the perfect everyday watch and briefly became one of the best sellers inside Patek Philippe’s catalogue. Up for sale is a pristine example, coming from the very early production batch. The Gerlach case retains its correct shape and represents a timeless design in the watchmaking world. Gold cases(such as the present one) measure 35.5mm, while steel one are a bit larger at 36.2mm. The dial developed a great patina, which enriches the watch with character and charm. The hard-enamelled Patek Philippe signature looks very crisp, together with the accent still clearly visible. Two features contribute to make this watch not an ordinary 570. First it showcases the Somazzi signature on the dial with Somazzi being a long time Lugano based Patek Philippe dealer and happens to be one of the rarest double signatures you can come across. The second one refers to the caliber housed, which is a 27SC. Usually ref. 570 was equipped with small seconds movements, while this example has an indirect central second hand, which is coherent with the very beginning of the production.

The Cartier Pasha is one of the most important and iconic watches of all times. Originally created for the Sultan of Marrakech, the Pasha was revisited in 1985 by Gerald Genta, who removed the protective grill originally present over the crystal. This example of ref. 2495 comes from the ultra-limited edition of the “Collection Privée” realized by Carter in only 5 pieces. Virtually unique, the white gold case of this unbelievable piece is masterfully set with diamonds from the maison and houses the astonishing Cloisonné enamel dial, a true masterpiece. This extremely complicated technique requires a gold strip to be bent and then the space is filled with extra-fine enamel and melt. To make it even more precious, four baguette-cut diamonds are set on the dial. The beautifully automatic Cartier signed caliber 311B can be admired from the exhibition caseback.

An El Primero is always a special watch on its own, being the first automatic chronograph ever, but this very one is even more special. The G382, nicknamed “Disco Volante” (Italian for Flying Saucer), was produced in a very limited run of 250 pieces between 1969 and 1970 and features an extremely funky and interesting case and lugs design. The round case and the yellow gold make the wonderfully aged brown patina on the dial look even better than the black that used to be before this fascinating process of time. Given the particular design, the presence on the wrist is very modern and pleasant. A G382 is a pretty rare find per se, and this example comes in unbelievable conditions, showing almost no sign of wear and with the original sticker still on the back. A conversation starter for sure.

This intriguing and rare Universal Geneve Uni-Compax chronograph features a 38mm waterproof Spillmann steel case still in excellent original condition, with no damages or signs of eccessive wearing. The screw-down case back is original and numbered with the reference hallmark. The black gilt dial is flawless, with no signs of ageing or flaws. The watch houses the 385 column wheel Universal Geneve caliber which runs smoothly. An unique chance for Spillmann case-lovers to get a museum-condition specimen.

Housed in a massive and well preserved 18k yellow gold case manufactured by Ponti Gennari, this Zenith is a dress watch full of character. The square shape that earned this kind of watches the nickname "cioccolatino" (italian for chocolate) was extremely popular in the fifties and sixties, yet is rarely seen paired to a black dial and automatic movement, as in the present watch. Furthermore, this Cioccolatino is powered by Zenith's own automatic caliber 133.8, a bumper movement designed in 1951 that, at the time of its launch, was the thinnest center seconds bumper caliber in the world. The well preserved and pleasantly patinated black dial, showing an applied gold star above the signature of 12 o'clock - Zenith's signature - completes the charming look of the piece.
