The house had previously organised 14 auctions dedicated to watchmaking.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.my-watchsite.fr\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/heuer.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-26804\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Heuer Pasadena Date \u201cFull Black\u201d<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Under the hammer, a 1982 HEUER pilot chronograph, with a similar feel to that of Porsche Design watches. This brand-new piece was estimated at \u20ac3,500 and sold for \u20ac3,600. A contemporary iteration of <a>a<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.montblanc.com\/en-gb\/collection\/watches\/all-movements\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Montblanc<\/a> Exo Tourbillon Minutes Chronograph \u2013 Winner of the Tourbillon Watch Prize at the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gphg.org\/horlogerie\/en\/gphg-2016\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">2016\u2019s GPHG<\/a> \u2013 left the auction room for \u20ac25,000.

The recent entry of brand-new watches in auctions, such as a Rolex Tiffany Blue \u2013 very recently sold at Sotherby\u2019s in Paris for approximately \u20ac17,000, which is more than \u20ac10,000 over the market price for new pieces \u2013 puts the notion of second-hand into perspective. However, it would be very difficult \u2013 not to say impossible \u2013 to find such a watch easily available for sale in shops. That explains the usefulness of stepping in the vintage market.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Vintage is an Eldorado for brands. Notice the arrival of second-hand in-house programs in several watchmaking Maisons, such as Jaeger-Lecoultre, Cartier, Zenith and last but not least, Rolex. The announcement by the crowned brand of its upcoming official program <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rolex.com\/buying-a-rolex\/rolex-certified-pre-owned\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Certified Pre-Owned<\/a> was no less than an earthquake within the small world of fine watchmaking. Pre-owned pieces are obviously not as reassuring as new ones regarding matters such as origin or authenticity, which all buyers of expensive pieces are concerned about. Besides the quality and scarcity of the pieces, collectors usually check these criteria closely and often turn to second-hand as they cannot purchase new watches in shops. Rolex, the most copied watchmaking star brand in the world, is no exception. To secure its watchmaking heritage and reassure its clients, the crowned manufacture has just announced the launch of the Rolex Certified Pre-Owned (RCPO) in-house program. In other words, an official system of reselling second-hand certified watches, and a new way to regulate the market and prevent speculation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong><strong>A 35-billion-euro market by 2030<\/strong><\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Watches are the best-selling pieces of art on the internet. They are a sure value, a social attribute and a currency that knows no cultural or generational barrier. In a way, to sell a watch is to sell a dream. Recent numbers show that this is a bubble bound to explode. By 2030, the pre-owned watch market should grow to \u20ac35 billion and make up more than half of the primary market. These estimations come from the ninth study conducted by the Deloitte cabinet on the watchmaking industry. Moreover, experts expect the second-hand watch market to outperform that of new watches by 2033, as stated by Founder of LuxeConsult Olivier M\u00fcller.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>According to the Mercury Project annual report, global watch auctions from Antiquorum, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bonhams.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Bonhams<\/a>, Christie\u2019s, Sotherby\u2019s and Philips reached a total value of over \u20ac700 million in 2022. Sales rose 11% compared to 2021 and were up 80% compared to 2019. Some other surprising data: according to a Morgan Stanley report, Swiss Made turned out to be more profitable than cryptocurrency in 2022. Need I say more?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Focus: past auctions<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.my-watchsite.fr\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/niton-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-26808\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"><strong>The Niton Gen\u00e8ve watch, top vintage.<\/strong><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>On March 12<sup>th<\/sup>, we spotted a curious, yellow gold, men wristwatch at the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.lefloch-drouot.fr\/en\/home\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Le Floc\u2019h<\/a> Study in Saint Cloud. It boasted a golden dial with a jumping hour display, a rotating disk for the minutes and a sub-dial for the seconds. A 1920 piece by a small Genevese watchmaking manufacturer called Niton. The Maison was created in 1919 by two craftsmen from Vacheron Constantin. They produced different kinds of calibres and sold them directly to shops. The model we have here is a perfect example of an Art Deco style watch. Its lines are inherited from World War I, with a bracelet that emulates Cartier\u2019s \u201cTank\u201d model inspired by tank tracks. The rectangular case is reminiscent of stretchers then used to carry the injured. Estimated at \u20ac2,000-\u20ac3,000, it finally left the auction room for \u20ac24,375. Which shows that sometimes, originality is enough, and it pays.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.my-watchsite.fr\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/pateklune.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-26810\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"><strong>Patek Philippe\u2019s <em>Heures Universelles<\/em> World Time Moon<\/strong><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>On February 14<sup>th<\/sup>, still in Drouot, Olivier Doutrebente\u2019s sale included a rare and beautiful <a href=\"https:\/\/www.patek.com\/en\/home\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Patek Philippe<\/a> \u201c<em>Heure Universelle<\/em>\u201d World Time Moon, ref. 7175R-001. This gold and diamond vintage wristwatch displayed a \u201c175e anniversaire 1839 \u2013 2014\u201d (\u201c175th anniversary 1839 \u20132014\u201d) engraving. It boasted a silver dial as well as rotating moon phases in the centre. The watch came from a limited edition of 450 pieces, specially made for the brand\u2019s 175th anniversary in 2014. This is now only its second appearance in auction, and the first in France. Estimated at \u20ac80,000-\u20ac120,000, this Patek Philippe watch was sold for only \u20ac70,000. It unfortunately did not reach the moon.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Still at Olivier Doutrebente\u2019s, we found a specimen of Lange 1 Time Zone watches from Maison <a href=\"https:\/\/www.alange-soehne.com\/fr-en\/home#setCurrentScope=FR?gclid=Cj0KCQjw8qmhBhClARIsANAtboeVw_hjvP2D44ljxABqBbZinKpBPMDsUNLPoL_KilS5sByTl9AMxacaAv-wEALw_wcB&amp;gclsrc=aw.ds\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">A. Lange &amp; S\u00f6hne<\/a>. This platinum reference from 2005-2006 displays a dual time zone and a silver dial. It houses a mechanical movement and a balance spring with micro spring calibration. There were bids from \u20ac30,000 to \u20ac50,000 for the watch. It proudly left the auction room after the hammer hit at \u20ac37,800.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Lastly, on March 16<sup>th<\/sup>, a beautiful auction at Philips\u2019s in Geneva honored independent watchmakers. One of them, Daniel Roth, is currently quite active. He was celebrated with a near-legendary watch, the Daniel Roth <em>Quanti\u00e8me Perp\u00e9tuel<\/em> ref. C117 made in 1996 with the help of watchmaker Philippe Dufour. Estimated at \u20ac25,500-\u20ac50,000, this first-of-its-kind instant quantum movement piece rose above expectations as it was sold for more than \u20ac90,000. That is not surprising though, given the recent revival of the brand with the production of new, limited pieces, with help from <em>La Fabrique du Temps <\/em>by Louis Vuitton.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.my-watchsite.fr\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/danielroth.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-26801\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"><strong>Daniel Roth\u2019s <em>Quanti\u00e8me Perp\u00e9tuel<\/em>, ref.

We cannot leave out Rolex and a certain vintage Daytona Chronograph with manual winding, which makes every collector go crazy. A \u201cPaul Newman\u201d version known by all Rolex aficionados for its two-to-three-colours dial. It is the most coveted reference by the manufacture, especially since the real \u201cDaytona\u201d by Paul Newman was auctioned in New York City for more than \u20ac15 million euros on October 26<sup>th<\/sup>, 2017. A little history: the chronograph was created in 1963 and was then worth only $210. In limited production at first, a few references were created until 1987, called the \u201cPaul Newman\u201d watches. This is an unofficial name not recognised by Rolex for the references 6239, 6262, 6263, 6264, 6265 or 6241. The one we have here is a 1968, 6241 reference, currently up for auction with its exotic tricolour dial in black (sub-dial) and white (dial). Its expected price ranks somewhere between \u20ac130,000 and \u20ac230,000, but its value will probably go up by a lot. To be continued.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.my-watchsite.fr\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/jaeger.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-26806\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"><strong>Jaeger-LeCoultre\u2019s Deep Sea ref. E857.<\/strong><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>At that same auction, a very rare, almost invisible reference will also resurface on the market: a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.jaeger-lecoultre.com\/gb-en\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Jaeger-LeCoultre<\/a> <a>Deep Sea<\/a> ref. E857. The Maison produced the watch for only three years between 1959 and 1962, in 1061 pieces. That is even fewer than the Polaris, later manufactured in 1714 pieces. It was produced in two lots: one for the European market and the other for the American market. Experts agree that about 800 pieces were for the American market (with a completely different dial), and about 200 pieces for the European market. As the first reckoned Jaeger-LeCoultre diving wristwatch, but also the first mechanical alarm diving watch, the expected price for this piece ranks somewhere between \u20ac20,000 and \u20ac30,000.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.my-watchsite.fr\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/jpjourne.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-26815\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"><br><strong>F.P.

Journe<\/a>. This auction will be the most important sale of F.P. Journe watches ever held to this day. With a catalogue of 40 F.P. Journe timepieces, this great sale will highlight Fran\u00e7ois-Paul Journe\u2019s genius with a selection of emblematic references, from early days to now. First, it will include an exclusive piece from 2010, a platinum sovereign Centigraphe ergonomic chronograph with registers for a 100th of a second, a 20th of a second and 10 minutes, as well as a red chromed dial and a platinum bracelet. This piece is only available on special demand and shows off F.P. Journe\u2019s emblematic red Ferrari dial. If you want it, prepare to spend \u20ac400,000 to \u20ac600,000. Then, the sale will include a wonderful platinum <em>Chronom\u00e8tre \u00e0 R\u00e9sonance \u2018Pr\u00e9-souscription\u2019<\/em>\u201d from 2000 with an expected price between \u20ac500,000 and \u20ac1,000,000.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Today\u2019s storytime<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Let\u2019s focus on a real discovery, since no one knew the existence of the watch we are about to introduce. Before announcing an official date for the sale, the Maison Philips revealed a platinum Patek Philippe Calatrava ref. 96 <em>Quanti\u00e8me Lune<\/em>. A piece that belonged to Aisin-Giro Puyi \u2013 also known as Xuan Tong, his regnal name \u2013 the twelfth and last Chinese emperor of the Qing dynasty. The sovereign lived a complicated life in China, inheriting the throne of the Qing dynasty when he was only 2 years old but having to abdicate four years later. H<a>is<\/a> life actually inspired the Oscar-winning movie <em>The Last Emperor<\/em> by Bertolucci (1987).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.my-watchsite.fr\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/patek.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-26811\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"><br><strong>Patek Philippe\u2019s Reference 96 <em>Quanti\u00e8me Lune<\/em>.<\/strong><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>This legendary reference piece is of capital importance for Patek Philippe\u2019s heritage since it is one of the main pieces that have never resurfaced. Although we knew the existence of only seven Patek Philippe 96 references with this complication, this <a>particular piece<\/a> is new on the market, and the eighth one to have come to light. Only two other examples with the exact same dial configuration \u2013 an enamel \u201cRoulette\u201d configuration of Arabic numerals \u2013 have resurfaced to this day. One of them has now joined the Patek Philippe Museum collection, whereas the other was sold in 1996 to a private collector. The auction house has not estimated a price yet, but the expected price is of at least \u20ac1,000,000.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>See also:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Montre neuve ou d&#039;occasion ?
