Getting ready for an auction trip to Geneva where there are 5 major auctions this weekend including a Phillips theme sale of 88 epic stainless steel chronographs. Check out some of my favorite lots in the upcoming sales.

Selection from:

Phillips: "Start Stop Reset: 88 Epic Stainless Steel Chronographs"

Lot 24

Lot 24 - Typically I see this watch with a silver dial. To find one with a black dial in this condition is amazing.

Lot 55

Lot 55 - To find a Longines with a black original dial and step case is extremely rare. Would like to own this one.

Selection from:

Phillips: "The Geneva Watch Auction Three"

Lot 135

Lot 135 - A phenomial Patek reference 530 in stainless steel with black original dial and breguet numerals. Expect some record to be broken on this one.

Lot 131

Lot 131 - Love this Breguet, I don't think I have seen this function before on a Breguet. This watch is incredibly rare.

Lot 171

Lot 171 - Patek Philippe chronograph reference 530 with sector dial. This is surely the darling of the weekend and extremely rare.
