My Geneva Rolex & PPC Auction November '11 Report............

This time I could completly focus on all the stunning watches
that where not only offered by the auction houses but also by
my fellow watch collectors/dealers that came to Geneva. When we
see the impressive results the top lots achieved, the economic
recession was not present at Des Bergues, Mandarin & Beau Rivage...

Those pieces that where genuinely original where as always most
sort after and reached their highest estimate or rocket skyhigh,
everything less got heavily punished, there's no room for bullsh*t
quality, put together or added enhanced look..even not when they
cover the front of a watch catalogue. The reputation of a auction
house is here in the hand of 1 single man, the guy responsible for
the offered lots. Again this time Mr Bacs showed us why Christie's
is leading the marked so impressivly. There where the others wheren't
complaining either, allthough some Rolex toplots for instance the Indian
emaille & Lafitte PN got resigned, except to 1 or 2 lots the real action
was again on monday......

I think that the high results are a direct result of the recession. After all: where to put your money?

unglaublich schöne uhren !!!

Danke für den tollen Report!
Die Seafoodplatte...lechtz...
Der Daytona Proto hat ja wohl ein Singerblatt...nach Füssen trau ich mich nicht zu fragen, aber was für Zeiger sind dran?
Wie war Deiner Meinung nach der Zustand der 6263 Oman?

DANKE Philipp - wie immer ein großartiger Bericht - ich hab´s dieses mal nur am Laptop verfolgt und selbst da war CHRISTIE´S ein echter Hammer!!


Zur Albino und der Prototyp Daytona nur so viel:

Unglaublich:verneig::):jump:

Die Adenauer (142000 Euro) war sogar bei uns in der Regionalzeitung abgebildet. Interessant, wieviele Leute international ihr Geld in Uhren investieren/anlegen.

Ein im Vergleich zu den int. Geldmärkten noch relativ ruhiges und möglicherweise sicheres Fahrwasser.

Danke fürs zeigen! :gut:

dito...hier in der täglichen Wirtschaftzeitung auch....ist halt schon historisch auffällig

DANKE Euch!!! :gut::gut:
