From Press Release
Geneva October 19 & 20th.
Many new world records and exceptionally strong prices compose the extraordinary watch auction which totaled an amount of CHF 39,124,580.-
Amongst the records:
Lot 82, Patek Philippe Ref. 2499, CHF3,193,500.-
Lot 24, Patek Philippe World Time Ref 2523HU, CHF 1,763,500.-
Lot 79, Patek Philippe Ref 96 CHF 1,433,500.-
I can't believe the comparatively rather modern Ref. 2499 prices! this is the predecessor to the current Ref. 3970 which is still available.
