Re: Results from Phillips Geneva Watch Auction EIGHT

Pretty solid results in my opinion.
Maybe the 741.603 price was lower than I expected.
I guess most people still don't see what a fabulous and rare watch that is.

But what to say about the Rolex and Omega results???

A Speedmaster 145.022-69 on a leather strap CHF18,750
A Rolex 1675 from 1967 on a Jubilee CHF36,250
A Rolex ref. 6610 on an Oyster CHF65,000
An Omega Ranchero CK2990 for an incredible CHF16,250!!! ( just sold one on OF for €3400 )

And these are only a few.
The vintage watch market is definitely not in trouble.
And we all know what happens when Rolex prices are getting totally crazy.
So I am pretty optimistic when it comes to Heuer. The history is still there, the low production volumes too, the quality movements and the incredible range,....
