Some of the highlights i've already examined up close you can find in a earlier RPR of my visit at Christie's in Geneva: http://rolexpassionreport.com/4005/my-preview-of-interesting-vintage-rolex-at-upcoming-may-2012-geneva-watch-auctions-of-christies-and-sothebys/

It will definitly become a crazy weekend with some new record prices with the stunning pink Patek Philippe ref 2499 and the North American Map Worldtimer.

See you all in Geneva! WIll Christie's have a Cocktail again on Saterday?

No comments on that thread so far... Not really surprising.

Probably other forum-members are as "depressed" as me when they see all these great watches... I guess the majority of the members in this precious forum can´t afford most of the watches that will be auctioned in May...

If you want to call 3 - 4 vintage watches your own you might need half a million euros or more... (and you are not allowed to buy more than 1 Patek :bgdev: )

But I´m still happy for the few people (like you Philipp) that have a vintage watch collection and / or are able to see, touch and play around with those awesome timepieces every day :-)

the black star dial is awesome :)

Kurze Frage an Alle: Werden die Auktionsergebnisse eigentlich nachträglich veröffentlicht?

Quick question to everybody: Will the auction results be published afterwards?

[Franko]

Amazing vintage PP and Rolex watches.

Thanks Philipp for showing.

Best

Vielen, vielen Dank!

Das wird mich ein paar Stunden beschäftigen :-)

Auch wenn ich nach den ersten 20 Uhren, die ich mir angeguckt habe, sagen muss, dass die Auktionpreise doch ziemlich (übertrieben) hoch ausgefallen sind. Wenn ich noch das Premium dazu rechne, ergeben sich selbst bei aktuellen Uhren Preise, die weit über denen hier in der Sales Corner liegen...

Scheint wohl, dass sich nicht wirklich viele Schnäppchen auf solchen Auktionen erzielen lassen...
