A bit slow around here, so please allow me to share some quick photos I took at the Phillips New York auction preview…
While all taken with my phone, hope they are still enjoyable.

Thanks for the pictures, Zsolt!
That’s an incredible selection. Did you have a favourite? I hope security checked your pockets on the way out! All the best, Jon
Hahaha! Jon…you give me away!
Truth is that after examining the vast majority of the offerings and due to being a work day, so not much crowd, I came to the conclusion that regardless of what collectors, influencers, or any other group might say Patek its above all in terms of quality...
Yes, Patek are far from perfect but they know what they're doing, particularly with complications. The two you picture are beauties, although my preference would be the vintage QP chrono.
I wouldn't have picked the RM for you either, but I can see the attraction. I see, from an article on Hodinkee, that Ben Clymer has some watches in that Philips sale. The article is worth a read if you haven't seen it already. All the best, Jon
