The viewing for Sotheby's Important Watches: Featuring has started! This auction is set to take place on December 6th, 2024, featuring 252 exceptional lots in New York. Leading the collection is the ROLEX Daytona 6238, estimated at $500K–$1.5M USD. Produced in limited numbers, black-dialed versions like this one are especially rare and highly coveted by collectors. This reference gained fame when it appeared on George Lazenby’s wrist in the 1969 James Bond film. The auction also features the Patek Philippe Minute Repeater Perpetual Calendar Chronograph 5208P, estimated at $700K–$1.1M USD. Crafted in platinum until 2018 (after which it was offered only in pink gold), this Grand Complication is among the most desirable and rarest of its kind, with only a few examples ever returning to public markets. Swipe through to explore other top highlights, including the TAG Heuer Monaco, reference 1133B worn by Steve McQueen during the filming of his passion project Le Mans. Viewings are private and by appointment only, running from December 2nd to 4th at Sotheby’s New York. https://lnkd.in/gtSgmVF5 Discover the full catalog now at EveryWatch.com!
