For Your Safety: A Message to All Buyers
- New Seller Notice: If a seller is new to the Collectors Market with less than 200 posts. While everyone starts somewhere, we strongly recommend using a secure payment method like PayPal Goods & Services or a credit card for purchases for buyer protection.
- Critical Security Alert: Established accounts can be compromised. Always request a custom timestamp (a photo of the watch with a note of your choosing) from any seller, regardless of their transaction history. For the highest security, a live video call is the best way to confirm the seller physically has the watch.
If a seller refuses these basic checks or you see any red flags, stop the transaction immediately.
Remember: A real seller with a genuine watch has nothing to hide and will understand your need for caution.
This is a unique piece up for sale for a steal of a price out of my private collection from Christophe Claret's Casino inspired watches. This one is not serialized and instead stamped "Piece Unique" because it does not contain the distracting instructions that are printed on the of the serialized watches from this collection limited to 21 pieces, i.e. "Deal must hit on...." This is an amazing statement piece with see through, smoked sapphire dial with “21” and a joker’s face etched under the dial.
This watch contains three active casino games, blackjack, roulette, and dice. It also has a patented cathedral gong that sounds when cards are dealt, hit, etc. There are 501 components to this movement!
The case is 45mm but doesn’t wear too large. It is made of white gold, titanium, and certain parts are black PVD coated. The watch comes on a black crocodile strap with red stitching and a deployant. It is a complete set with box, papers, and certificate. It's in perfect condition, no visible marks or scratches at all. It was only worn a handful of times and stayed a safe queen most of her life. The outer cardboard box is damaged from shipping the inner box is perfect condition and artwork itself.
A real miniature casino, it matches grand complications with the world of gaming, in the process creating a new watchmaking paradigm: the interactive watch. In addition to transparency, relief, and the passage of time, here he adds the sensory effects of blackjack, roulette and dice. An unprecedented upmarket toy for aficionados, expressing a kind of watchmaking that has cast off its inhibitions.
ROULETTE
Alongside Blackjack and dice, roulette is part of legendary casino games and so naturally deserved to figure somewhere on this exceptional piece. On the Blackjack, it appears on the back of the watch.
