Comment: Thomas Perazzi, Head of sale and auctioneer: The auction of 363 lots offered something for collectors at all stages of collecting and we were very pleased to welcome just under 50 percent of new clients to our sale this season. Clients came from 33 countries and active bidding could be seen in the sale room, on the phones and the Internet. The top lot was lot 161, a vintage Patek Philippe, ref. 1518, manufactured in 1950, selling for SFr. 581,000. Vintage Omega watches offered in the sale generated great interest and set some world auction records prices for specific references. Vintage Rolex watches, particularly Daytona Chronographs, also performed extremely well.
