Yes, it does seem to have been obvious that better auction outcomes would come.

But over the fall in HK and now here in Geneva some real large jumps have occurred. These two watches however are outliers, very early, very limited (one unique) and very rarely seen in the market.

Thank you for following the auction. A 38 mm version of this piece will surely look and feel different.

Agreed. These are not production pieces, so not comparable.

However a new level of interest from a broader audience is evident and has been for some time. It is still a very young brand. It was bound to happen at a point. An other thing worth remembering is that if it can go up it can also go down again. Plenty of...
Whilst these are quite extraordinary results for a young brand

What was perhaps more eye popping was the price paid for the 'entry level' Chronometre Bleu: £42,000 against a list of around half that I believe. It will be interesting to see how the retail (specifically new watch) sector of the industry fairs. Pre-owne...
bit a drop lately in my market

In the USA, CB peaked at a little over 50k USD recently, seems to be trending lower now.
Just a kind, gentle reminder for you guys

To steer you guys away from discussing street prices of watches, as our forum rules don’t permit this. (The general market value of the CB) I know this can seem a bit tempting when we are discussing the news of these spectacular auction results. We just n...
