A leading actor on the vintage watch market, particularly for sports and professional watches, our Watches department recorded important results, including a Patek Philippe ref. 1518 Big Arabic that sold for €883,000, an Audemars Piguet Code 11.59 that fetched €708,480, and the General de Gaulle LIP that sold €537,920 last December 2024.

Over the years, the department has orchestrated the sale of exceptional collections over the years: the Rolex collection of a former racing driver in 2016, the watches of the artist Arman in 2017. It also auctioned the Gail & Robert Schwartz collection of women’s timepieces in 2018, the iconic Bull Collection in 2020, and The Eight Collection alongside Property of a Lady in 2021.
