Denmark based Jules Jürgensen has been producing watches

since 1740, and since then have strived to keep the tradition of the

best of the old, adding the most valued of each new advancement

in the art of watchmaking. In the 1930s the watchmaking world

saw the introduction of the jump hour watch, a complex movement

that balanced the regulation of power and the precision of

keeping time simultaneosly. Unlike traditional watches that use

constant force, jump hour watches require a power peak

for jumping the hour disc, while the minute disc flows in the more

traditional manner. The complexity of these watches contrasts with

their simple and streamlined art deco inspired designs. While many

brands like Rolex and Audemars Piguet produced watches of this

style, Jules Jürgensen also jumped to the challenge, and produced

the current example in an 18k white gold case. Considering its age,

the watch is in excellent condition, and includes its original box,

certificate, spare strap, all in pristine shape. It is a rare and prime

example of the iconic jump hour watch that is beloved by many

vintage collectors.

US$13,000 - 26,000

Rolex’s Tru-beat, introduced in the mid-1950s, represents one of the

rarest and most overlooked watch models from the brand. At first

glance, the untrained eye might consider it a simple quartz powered

timepiece, with a “dead beat” second hand that clicks once per

second unlike the smooth flow of mechanical watches. Yet while this

complication has no practical use, it is fascinating in theory. By making the normal sweep second look like it has fewer segments, the

watch is essentially tricking the eye, creating an optical illusion. The

watch houses the Caliber 1040 which runs at 18,000 bph, but we

only see 3,600 bph (one tick per second) on the dial. It does this by

using two gears with a spring between them on the seconds pinion.

These gears are locked and unlocked by a small fork that makes

the small sweeps into one big jump per second, thus fully realizing

this complication decades before the advent of quartz watches.

Rolex Tru-Beat was not very popular when it was released and had

few variations, ultimately being discontinued in 1965. Yet today it is

a highly sought-after model by collectors for its rarity and uniqueness. The current example, which is in good condition and includes

the original box and three spare links, is a rare opportunity for the

discerning vintage Rolex collector to add this peculiar example of

timekeeping to their collection.

The Rolex Explorer II 1655 first appeared on the market in 1971 and

continued the tradition of the earlier Explorer models which were first

introduced in 1953. The watch was originally conceived to accompany speleologists on their cave exploration expeditions and as such

was designed with extreme durability in mind. Due to the challenges

of determining time of day in these eternally dark conditions, the

watch features a fixed bezel with 24-hour display and a special

orange 24-hour hand that can be set to distinguish day from night

hours, thus becoming lovingly known amongst collectors as the

\"Freccione\", or Italian for \"big arrow\". Due to its limited commercial

success and short production period, the reference 1655 is today

one of the more sought-after vintage Rolex models. The current

lot is in good condition and includes the maker's presentation box,

certificate, service papers and booklet all in excellent condition. It is

a great opportunity for those looking to add this very special vintage

Rolex timepiece to their collections.

The Rolex Daytona is a legendary watch that represents the apex of

Rolex in terms of collectability. Over the years the watch has seen a

major evolution in terms of case size and the transition from manual

winding to in-house automatic movements, but it has always kept its

original spirit. Reference 6265 was introduced in 1969 with reference

6263, and was produced in steel, gold and silver. It uses the manual

wind caliber 727 that runs at 21,600 vibrations per hour and was essentially the workhorse movement for Rolex Daytona until the launch

of the Zenith based 4030 in 1988. The current watch is a beautiful

example of this manual wind era of Daytona watches and comes with

beautifully preserved accompaniments. It would be a worthy addition

to any collection of Rolex enthusiasts.

Beyond icons like Rolex Submariner, Datejust and Day-Date, the

Daytona has emerged as the most sought after and collectible Rolex in

history. Yet this was not always the case, as the early days of the Cosmograph saw the watch shunned by collectors and general consumers alike, and it was typical for many models to sit idly on store shelves

with little to no interest. Yet the fortune of the Daytona started shifting

in the 1970s when, according to horological legend, an Italian Daytona

collector and enthusiast spotted a picture of famed actor Paul Newman wearing an exotic dial example on one of his movie posters, and

the rest is history. Due to the surge in popularity of the Daytona and

Paul Newman connection, and the introduction of the first automatic

Daytona reference 16520, using the Zenith-powered 4030, the watch

started becoming more coveted and appreciated.

By the turn of the century with the introduction of the 6-digit 116520

and the first automatic in-house movement calibre 4130, Daytona had

sealed its position as the most desired Rolex timepiece and was the

first Rolex watch that became difficult to obtain through authorized

dealers. Yet it was the famous auction of Paul Newman’s very own

Paul Newman Daytona that took the fever to new heights. In 2017 it

hammered for nearly USD $18 million, becoming the most expensive

watch ever sold at a North American auction. From that point the

Daytona’s rise has been stratospheric, and whether it be in stainless

steel, precious metal or the famed 50th Anniversary reference 116506

in platinum (Lot 819) the Daytona has become, for better or for worse,

the bellwether for the entire watch industry in terms rising grey market

prices, scarcity at retail and record-breaking auction results.

While it is common to see a number of modern or vintage Rolex

Daytonas at any given auction, it is rarer to see a collection that spans

various eras in the history of this iconic watch, from the manual winding era and 4 digit references in like the 6265 (Lot 813) to the 5-digit

Zenith era reference 16520 (Lot 815) to the 6-digit modern references with in-house calibres like the references 116520, 116509 and

116506 (Lots 817-819). Bonhams is proud to showcase the evolution

of the Daytona with this grouping of timepieces that will surely be a

treat for Rolex enthusiasts and collectors.

The Rolex Daytona 16520 contains the iconic Calibre 4030 based on

the Zenith El Primero movement. As the first automatic in the Rolex

Daytona range the enthusiasm for this model continues to grow in

the present day, with many collectors forgoing the later references

116520 and 116500 with the more modern and technically more

impressive 4130 movement. As the Zenith Daytona slowly moves into

the neo-vintage and vintage categories, examples like this one which

is in excellent condition will make a compelling option to consider for

both long time and new Daytona collectors.

Neo-Vintage Watches

For most of the history of watches there have been two types

that most collectors have understood, modern and vintage.

In the case of modern watches, always improving methods of

machining, and advances in movement technology and material science have made these timepieces reliable and allowed

even casual watch collectors to enjoy the most cutting-edge

technology. Vintage, while less reliable and dated in terms of

technology, evoked the more poetic side of collecting, with a

romanticism that only a timepiece that has stood the test of

time can exude.

Yet in the past decade, as watch collecting grew and matured

through the advent of social media, a new and evolving third

type or category has emerged: the neo-vintage watch. In a

way neo-vintage watches do not actually exist in a separate

category yet pull from both the modern and vintage worlds to

create a wholly new type of category of timepiece for collectors to consider. This period, largely considered between 1980

and the early 2000s, saw technologies improve, with more

precise machining and innovations like the use of silicon and

other such materials to improve timekeeping accuracy, and

durability. In many ways, through their designs and harking to

the traditions of watchmaking throughout the century, many of

these watches were a continuation of vintage watch designs,

rather than a departure. At the end of the century such watches fell out of favor with collectors, who felt that they represented a sort of “identity crisis” in terms of their designs, being too

old to be appreciated by modern enthusiasts, but too new to

be acknowledged by vintage watch collectors.

Over time, however, this category of watches has taken on a

newfound resurgence, and alongside the rise of key independent watchmakers in this era and watch brands refocusing

on great mechanical watchmaking techniques after the quartz

crisis, neo-vintage and its mixed influences now have the

eyes of collectors looking for great timepieces at a great value

and is poised to become the next truly significant category in

watch collecting. The following examples featured in this sale

like Patek Philippe Nautilus Ref. 3700 (Lot 844), Collection Privée Cartier Paris or “CPCP” Cloche (Lot 823) and

Asymétrique (Lot 824), Breguet Classique Grand Complication Ref. 3657PT (Lot 825) represent some of the greatest

neo-vintage timepieces and are sure to be in the minds of

collectors for years to come.

Cartier is one of the most famous maisons in the world, and for good

reason. Their designs in jewelry and watchmaking are unparalleled

in their grace and beauty. Some of the most sought-after examples

when it comes to watchmaking are Cartier ‘Paris’ signed low on the

dial, and the rarity and beauty of these timepieces cannot be understated, especially in comparison to the re-editions of these timepieces. The current example, an 18k yellow gold Tonneau Cintrée is a

testament to the sheer elegance of these watches, with their subtle

flat chamfered edges that meet at clean angles. The dial’s subtle

guilloche detailing contrasts with its blue sword hands, and the distinctly Cartier cabochon gemstone crown. Although the provenance

for Cartier, Paris timepieces are difficult to ascertain, the stamped

hallmark ‘Made in France’ on the case back all but assures that this

example is very rare and limited in production. A truly beautiful example in very good condition of a bygone era in Cartier, Paris history.

There is no doubt when it comes to independent watchmaking that

Franck Muller was a pivotal figure in the 1990s with his creative

designs and complications. This Franck Muller Perpetual Calendar

reference 7000QP shows his unique style with its two-tone black and

silver dial that has eleven blue steel markers that brought a new and

novel expression of the Perpetual Calendar. The timepiece features

sub dials for the date, day, moon phase, and leap year, but it also

has a half-circle retrograde display for the month. The watch highlights Franck Muller's originality and courage to break the rules and is

a prime example of his impact on the industry. The current watch is in

its very original condition and is a beautiful example for collectors to

consider as an addition to their collections.

Cartier launched the Collection Privée Cartier Paris, or CPCP for

short, in 1998. This was a return to their roots, with a focus on design and mechanics. For the next decade they revived some of their

classic models from the past, such as the Cintrée and the Tank Chinoise. They also used manual-winding movements from renowned

makers like Piaget, Jaeger-LeCoultre, and Renaud & Papi. This was

a response to the growing interest in mechanical watches after the

Quartz Crisis, which had damaged Cartier’s reputation after going for

the mass market with too many quartz-powered, ladies’ watches.

The Collection Privée Cartier Paris watches are now gaining more

attention from collectors, who appreciate their historical and aesthetic value. This is no more apparent than in the two watches that

comprise the famed collection in this sale, the Tank Asymétrique

\"Jumbo\" (Lot 824), and the Cloche (Lot 823). Both watches

employ unconventional case shapes, and yet their designs are still

somehow classical and restrained in nature, with elegant guilloche

that emanates from the rosette motif on the dial, with a “Cartier

28 | BONHAMS

Paris” signature. Both watches also take inspiration from forgotten

designs from Cartier’s past, with the Asymétrique inspired by the

Tank Oblique, envisioned for drivers in 1936, and the Cloche that was

originally created in 1922 as a bell-shaped case and drivers style dial,

\"cloche\" being the French word for bell.

The CPCP came to an end in 2008 and slowly faded into obscurity

for over a decade as larger case sizes and sports watches became all the rage. Yet in the past few years they have been gaining

popularity amongst collectors, especially as neo-vintage watches

have gained more traction in the market. Both the Asymétrique

and Cloche, limited to 150 and 100 pieces respectively, are a rare

opportunity to obtain these unconventional designs from Cartier most

iconic collection of the past century.

Originally built in 1929, the Calibre 101 consists of 98 tiny parts

weighing only one gram and is to this day the smallest mechanical

movement ever created. It is one of the crowning achievements from

Jaeger-LeCoultre in terms of movement innovation. Its assembly is

a specialist process that only a select number of watchmakers can

master, and thus only a few Calibre 101 movements are made each

year on special order, thus making Calibre 101 watches some of the

most collectible from the maison. The watch Queen Elizabeth II wore

at her coronation in 1953 was powered by a Jaeger-LeCoultre Calibre 101, and the Calibre has graced the wrists of many celebrities

and dignitaries alike. The current lot, with its full diamond-set case

and bezel, is a rare and beautiful example of the Calibre 101 and

would be a great addition to any watch collection.

Of all Swiss watchmakers there is none that has been more important in terms of innovations, movement breakthroughs and pushing

the boundaries and the science of watchmaking as Jaeger-LeCoultre. For many years “La Grande Maison” provided many of its magical

movements to the likes of Patek Philippe, Audemars Piguet and

Vacheron Constantin for use in their own creations. The term “the

watchmaker’s watchmaker” is one that is well and truly deserved.

Continuing this tradition of movement innovation, in 2012 Jaeger-LeCoultre introduced at SIHH a first of its kind: Duomètre à Sphérotourbillon, a new addition to the already celebrated Duometer collection,

with the inclusion of a tourbillon that had never been seen before.

The tourbillon rotates on two axes for a three-dimensional rotation

to counteract the effects of gravity placed on the movement in any

position. The addition of a cylindrical balance wheel adds to the

rarity of this invention and is truly one of the most unique executions

of a tourbillon that has ever been created. The current lot, limited in

edition, in excellent condition and with its full suite of accessories, is

a truly living and breathing testimony to the mastery of horological

innovation that is Jaeger-LeCoultre, and is a rare and opportunity to

add one of the finest examples of a tourbillon ever created to any

collection.

Wheels™ Mercedes-Benz 300 SL “Racing Works Edition” with opening gullwing doors, a detailed interior, and racing graphics. It is one

of the most detailed Hot Wheels™ models ever produced with only

50 pieces in existence. Both the watch and the model car feature

the number 68, which refers to the founding years of IWC and Hot

Wheels™. The current example is in mint condition and features the

maker’s original metal toolbox with instruction manual, a booklet, and

a limitation plate with the individual corresponding set number. This is

Reference PAM00767 is an upgrade to the PAM00578 but with

aesthetic upgrades like a blue flange to match the blued hands and

markers. The watch is distinct for including a tourbillon and movement

that used 3D printing technology using the technique of Direct Metal

Laser Sintering in the manufacturing process. The result of this is a

lightweight and innovative manual winding movement that includes a

30-second rotating tourbillon, a power reserve display and a second

time zone indication. In addition, the watch is fully skeletonised, thus

adding to the visual impact of the fast-moving tourbillon. The present

lot comes in excellent condition and includes the full suite of

accessories. For any \"Paneristis\" or those who can value one of the

most innovative approaches to developing a tourbillon, this is the ideal

timepiece.

HONG KONG WATCHES | 45

Patek Philippe is widely considered by most collectors as representing the pinnacle of high horology. Over its 184-year history the

Maison has been responsible for some of the most iconic watches,

from its legendary first serially produced perpetual calendar, reference

1526, to the iconic Nautilus reference 3700. This very first Nautilus

and many more are featured in the rare and extraordinary grouping of

watches from a sophisticated Asian private collector.

Yet beyond the watches, the story of the collector is a fascinating

one. Born in Hong Kong, he did not come from a wealthy background, and the collector is a prime example of the industrious

self-made man at a time when Hong Kong’s fortunes were growing

through industry and development. But the collector always had

a passion for watches, and viewed them not as accessories to be

used, but as works of art to be appreciated. Rare would be the times

that his watches would be worn, and he much preferred viewing and

admiring them for their designs and beauty. The watches were occasionally wound to preserve the movements functionality, and all the

accessories were shown the same meticulous level of care attention.

The result: a highly unique and rare collection of watches with sharp

edges and crisp hallmarks that for their age are in excellent condition.

From well-known classics like the Nautilus reference 3700 (Lot

844) to more daring timepieces like Patek Philippe’s first self-winding skeletonised wristwatch reference 3878 (Lot 843) to possibly

unique timepieces like an Ellipse yellow gold pocket watch reference

874/3 (Lot 842) it’s an amazing array of timepieces the collector

acquired and took so much care of over decades.

Bonhams proud to showcase this amazing collection of neo-vintage Patek Philippe timepieces, that not only have been carefully

preserved with full certificates and boxes by the original owner, but

whose rarity and designs celebrate one of the golden eras of Patek

Philippe watchmaking. For collectors who are truly passionate about

the brand, and enthusiasts who want to delve deeper into the history,

each of the following 8 lots has something to offer.

Reference 3578 was released in 1969 and included the very slim 8\"

calibre 175 until it was replaced with the calibre 177 in 1977. The

sides are flanked by two inlaid lapis lazuli stripes that enhance the

two-piece \"skater\" shaped case. The timepiece features an 18k

white gold mesh bracelet that is stamped JPE, which indicates it was

produced by Jean-Pierre Ecoffey. Jean-Pierre Ecoffey is renowned

for producing some of the highest quality bracelets, as well as

jewelry pieces for Patek Philippe during mid to late 20th century. The

bracelet is in excellent condition and shows no signs of warping. It is

a great example of ultra-thin Patek Philippe dress watches that were

so popular during this era.

HK$85,000 - 170,000

US$11,000 - 22,000

One of the most exciting watches in this vintage Patek Philippe

collection might possibly be reference 3445 “Monodate”, launched

in 1961 as the first simple calendar wristwatch produced by the

maison. The current example is a 2nd series, produced in the mid to

late 1970s, with a blue dial, of which 2800 were made yet only 190

have been identified. The timepiece also includes a maker’s 18k white

gold mesh bracelet stamped JPE after Jean-Pierre Ecoffey in Geneva.

While the silvered dials were the most common, the gilt, blue and

black examples are far rarer. In addition to this, given the meticulous

care the collector has shown to his watches, the mesh style bracelet

is in excellent condition and shows no signs of warping or serious

use. It is rare for such a fine example in this configuration of dial and

material to appear at auction, thus this is a truly incredible opportunity

for the discerning collector to pick up this iconic reference.
