Description

The repeater in its various forms is a more interesting complication, with few houses offering them let alone mastering them. aaa Replica Watches In addition to the mechanical artistry, the designers and engineers must conquer the audible world. Repeaters remain more rare and exclusive, and I’m convinced tougher to master. The official estimate for this piece (the aforementioned Patek Philippe Ref.3939 HP) was CHF 400,000 – 500,000. And it sold for 428,500 CHF, right in the middle of the estimate. Now I think that auction houses have a history of, and maybe even an interest in, low-balling their estimates. When an auction result smashes the earlier estimates it is good news. Rather than being impressed at the final hammer price I’m a little disappointed that it did not go for more. This is a wonderful and rare example from one of the finest houses.
Omega Replica
Another item that caught my eye is the Patek Philippe Ref. 2524/1 (lot 543) (see the pic). It’s from 1954, in 18k yellow gold, and only eight examples were ever produced. The estimate of CHF 300,000 – 400,000 again was solid, with the watch ultimately going for CHF 3740. While not platinum, buyers clearly were impressed by the exclusivity of being one of only eight pieces.
For reference, it was just weeks ago that a rare Patek Reference 2419 (also a repeater) was estimated at up to USD $500,000 and sold for $710,500. This Reference 2419 is even more exclusive than the Pateks in this auction, so the price gap is understandable.
Omega Constellation Replica
In the end this auction has shown us that Pateks and truly rare or unique timepieces hold value, even in rough economic times. And the more rare, the greater the relative value in the auctions. The rest of 2011 will definitely be interesting one for auctions. As the economy hopefully recovers, will watch auction results be a leading or a trailing indicator?
Omega Seamaster Planet Ocean Automatic Calibre 8500 And Chronograph Calibre 9300 Watches For 2011
In addition to the new for 2011 Speedmaster Co-Axial Chronograph Automatic watch, Omega De Ville Replica Omega offers a new Planet Ocean Seamaster Co-Axial Chronograph Automatic watch with the new in-house Omega caliber 9300. There is also a three-hand Seamaster which also has in-house made Omega caliber 8500 automatic. These new pieces are fantastic, and show just how dedicated Omega is to making its two core sport watch collections better and better.
One quick note for you watch movements nerds. The original caliber 8500 for a few years ago did not have a silicon hairspring, but all the new versions do. What you see here the range of new pieces for 2011. I want to start with the more simple three-hand Seamaster Co-Axial Automatic. Omega Seamaster Replica There will be black and blue version. The blue will have Omega’s Liquidmetal bezel, but not the black one yet. Last year Omega came out with a limited edition Omega Planet Ocean Seamaster with a Liquidmetal bezel, this was to test the new ceramic/metal bezel. Since then Omega has acquired the rights to Liquidmetal 100%. This means they plan on going full scale with Liquidmetal soon, but right now they are still ramping up their ability to industrialize its use. Though, Omega Speedmaster Replica I will say that the blue Liquidmetal bezel watches are not limited in production.
