Today the Only Watch 2017 auction was held in the Four Seasons Hotel des Bergues in Geneva by Christie’s. As expected the Patek Philippe Ref. 5208T-010, a minute repeater with monopusher chronograph, perpetual calendar and moon phase, was the most expensive watch selling for CHF 6’200’000. Which is about 6,224,500 US$, 5.335.600 euro’s and 4,719,400 GBP. The estimated price was about CHF 900,000 – 1,100,000 (€ 822,000 – 1,004,000 / $ 932,000 – 1,139,000). It makes the watch the number 4 in the list of most expensive watches in the world. Here you find all the Only Watch 2017 results.
The best Only Watch 2017 results
As mentioned, the Patek Philippe Ref. 5208T-010 was the most wanted lot. But there were a few more lots with stunning results. The Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Perpetual Calendar did about 8 times more than the estimated price. The Blancpain Tribute to Fifty Fathoms MIL-SPEC about 4 times. The F.P. Journe Chronographe Monopoussoir Rattrapante as well, reaching an amount of CHF 1’150’000. Which makes it the most expensive wristwatch ever sold from an independent watch brand.
The Tudor Black Bay Bronze One was estimated on CHF 5’000 and sold for CHF 350’000, 70 times more. Which makes it the most attractive offer for Only Watch 2017. In total Only Watch 2017 raised CHF 10’776’500!
