F.P. Journe
Model: Élégante 40mm Titalyt (2 Rows of Diamonds)
It’s the Tortue-shaped case watch collectors know and love, taken to the next level, with the adornment of 38 brilliant cut diamonds on either side of the dial. F.P. Journe's famous electro-mechanical movement, which allows time to stop and start again, is one of the key attributes of the Élégante.

The present example comes to us in excellent condition, complete with its original box and papers.

Patek Philippe
Ref. 5970R-001
Model: Perpetual Calendar Chronograph
Perfect proportions, useful complications, highly legible dial and beautifully hand finished watch-making. There is a very good reason why the Patek 5970 is widely thought to be one of their most exquisite designs. This example from 2005 is crafted in 18ct rose gold, one of the metals that the reference made its 2004 debut in. Complete with its Patek polished wooden box, wallet, case back, stylus & tag, we are proud to present this in superb condition from a private collector.

Patek Philippe
Ref. 5712/1A
Model: Nautilus "Tiffany & Co."
Made to celebrate the 30th Anniversary of the Nautilus collection in 2006, the Patek Phillipe 5712 instantly became, and remains, a true icon of the brand. Its good looks combined with a hefty presence on the wrist have made this reference one of the most desirable modern sports watches on the market. Waiting times to acquire one extend to years, but what sets this particular example even further apart is, of course, the Tiffany & Co. signature which graces the dial. One of very few examples in steel to appear on the market, there really is no other way to highlight the extreme rarity of the watch. Well-preserved and in absolutely stunning condition, this reference 5712 retailed by Tiffany & Co. is accompanied by its Patek Philippe Certificate of Origin, full set of accessories and iconic Tiffany blue packaging.

Richard Mille
Ref. RM037
Model: RM037 "Diamond Set" Automatic
One of the great iconoclasts in modern watchmaking and known for their exceptional technical innovation, Richard Mille have pushed every other major brand to up their game in terms of material science and chronometric solutions. It may seem surprising then that it was only in 2012 that they launched their first totally in-house calibre, the CRMA2, proudly presented in the impressive RM037. Protected by a solid 18ct white gold case, the CRMA2 calibre features the signature function select button for the crown, boasts a 50-hour power reserve and a large date at 12. The dial sports a flash of red jasper in the centre, enveloped in a pavé set diamond ring to soften the technical open-work behind it. This example, presented in superb condition, is complete with the original box, warranty certificate, and two additional rubber straps.

Rolex
Ref. 16520
Model: "Zenith" Daytona
Terms the London team have debated using to describe this watch include “Time Capsule”, “Preservation Class” and “Museum Grade”. But the watch is best summed up by the fact that our photographer refused to shoot a wrist shot to “keep it as new as possible”. The original hologram is still perfectly aligned, the Rolex cloth around the watch shows one clear circle where it has remained pressed into one position of the sapphire glass for 24 years (until we took it out for inspection) and even the papers felt like we were the first to open them since January of the new millennium. ‘Crisp’, ‘sharp’ and ‘new’ are all words that fall short in front of this incredibly preserved 16520 Zenith Daytona. Full set, matchless condition and impossible to replace. We decided to call this watch “the find me another”.

De Bethune
Ref. DB25
Model: DB25 '40mm' Reserve De Marche
Although one of the most technically interesting brands in watchmaking, the sheer scale of many of De Bethune's watches can sometimes feel a little intimidating to the average wrist! This DB25, however, wears beautifully. It still measures a solid 40mm, but the super slim bezel and elegant skeleton lugs make for a light, easy feel on the wrist. Housed in an 18ct white gold case, it houses the automatic 2024.853 calibre movement with blued titanium bridge and typically space-age balance wheel. This watch comes to us in great condition and complete with the original DB box, travel box and certificate.

Audemars Piguet
Ref. 26262OK.OO.D002CA.01
Model: Limited Edition "Restivo" Perpetual Calendar Chronograph
In the early 2000s, Audemars Piguet's seemingly small update to the Royal Oak Offshore unexpectedly created the hottest watch of the decade. Sporting rugged, rubber-wrapped bezels, these models became known as the 'Rubber Clads.' The most sought-after variant was the rose gold version, which for nearly ten years, sold out almost immediately after arriving in retailers' windows. Few collectors are aware that AP quietly launched a run of only 25 Grand Complication Rose Rubber Clads with the unique reference 26262OK, for their Sicilian partner, Restivo. With the sleek good looks of the classic model, this ultra-exclusive run boasted a Perpetual Calendar and Moonphase, in addition to the chronograph synonymous with the Offshore family. The deep grey dial with rose gold highlights (most noticeable on the moonphase) is simply breathtaking. Rare as hens' teeth, this is one for the true AP cognoscenti. Found in superb condition, showing few signs of wear, the case has started to oxidise beautifully, and comes complete with the original AP winding box, warranty book, instructions and stylus.

Audemars Piguet
Ref. 25721ST
Model: Royal Oak Offshore "Beast"
There are very few watches that invent a whole new market, the 1972 Royal Oak was one, and then 2 decades on, the Royal Oak Offshore did it again. Massively oversized for its day, and built more like a piece of military equipment than the luxury watches everybody else was making, the Offshore earned its famous nickname. 42mm of stainless steel bolted together around on oversized gasket and fitted to a muscled-up version of the Royal Oak bracelet this set the stage for the bigger watches of the new millenium.

Rolex
Ref. 6262
Model: Cosmograph Daytona
Only in production for around a year, these so-called transitional, reference Daytonas are a hard to find gem in the history of Cosmograph production. With the same physical presence as the earliest 6239 models that established the Daytona DNA, the ref 6262 and 6264 introduced the upgraded, 727 calibre chronograph movement that would power the family right through the 70's and up to the end 1980's when the automatic 1652X series was launched. This example from 1970 sports a beautifully clean silver dial with charcoal grey 'panda' subs and monochrome signature.

Rolex
Ref. 16520
Model: "Zenith" Daytona
The Zenith Daytona was transformational to the watch industry. The very first contemporary wristwatch to generate world-wide waiting lists and such a total reinvention of the previous model that it's amazing Rolex didn't rechristen the line altogether. Over its 12 year production run, the 16520 was slowly updated in both technical and aesthetic terms, the apex of this evolution was reached in the A-series watches that now sported robust solid end-links, eternal Luminova dials, fatter, more legible text and 'high-speed' tachymetric bezel. This example, found in gorgeous condition, is presented with its original Rolex box and certificate.

Patek Philippe
Ref. 5065J
Model: Aquanaut "Neo Vintage" Tritium Dial
We talk about rarity in terms of models, complications and executions, but what is extraordinarily rare, and nearly impossible to define, is the ability that some watches have to just make you smile when you put them on. The “neo-vintage” yellow gold 5065 Aquanaut is one of those few watches that boast that rarefied quality. The combination of yellow gold and a beautifully aged Tritium lume dial is magic. Coupled with the fact that it was made in seemingly small numbers (this is only the second that Phillips have brought to market in ten years), we are extremely proud to offer this example to the market complete with its original Patek box and Certificate of Origin.

Bamford
Model: "Mickey Mouse" Milgauss
Known for many years as the finest customisation team in their field, Bamford Watch Department’s work has always been widely sought after and their expertise applied to a number of 'secret' projects. One such project was from none other than Mickey Mouse’s home: Disney. A sketch of the world’s most famous Mouse, sporting his iconic gloves, indicates the time, set against a 3D dial repeating his famous silhouette. What is intriguing is that every external reference to Rolex is removed, including the Coronets on the crown and clasp. Why the Disney team would insist on erasing any sign of 'The Crown' (whilst also demanding a Rolex watch as its canvas) we will likely never truly know, but can happily guess. The project never fully came to fruition, so this example in its cool grey MGTC stands as a powerful 'what might have been'. Presented with its special presentation box that lights up with the famous 'ears' motif when pressed, this is one of the coolest 'for your eyes only' projects we've handled.

Model: Daytona "Patrizzi"
Flawlessly imperfect, this 16520 Daytona is breath-taking. The swirling milk chocolate toned sub-dials immediately mark this as an incredibly special Cosmograph. Collectors are well versed in the so-called Patrizzi dials, whose flawed zapon finish caused the subdials to oxidise, and are found most notably within the W-series range. Highly sought after for their attractive brown tones, this example sports gorgeous asymmetric rings that evoke the swirls of a morning latte. Lovingly kept, this watch appears to have never been worn, retaining its sharp lugs, crisp bezel and coronet case-back sticker along with the full compliment of original box, certificate, tags and booklets. An extra special detail that raises a smile is the consecutively numbered serial: W 4 5 6 7 8 9.

Patek Philippe
Ref. 3712/1A
Model: Nautilus
Patek Philippe introduced reference 3712/1A in 2005, and it remained in production for approximately one year, although some estimate as few as eight months, before being succeeded by the ref. 5712 in 2006. The model was at the time of its launch the first truly complicated Nautilus - the date and moonphases being notable upgrades from the power reserve complication of the earlier ref. 3710. Unlike the 5712, the present reference has a slightly smaller case measuring 42 mm in diameter, being constructed using only two pieces compared to the more rounded, three piece, 42.5mm case of its counterpart. In addition, the dial of the reference 3712 features wider grooves, or channels, and different hour markers than its successor. The most apparent difference is however that the date ring is smaller in reference 3712, allowing for the presence of a tiny 7 o’clock marker, absent in ref. 5712. The present example, is further enhanced by its "4 dot" power reserve configuration marking it out as later in production and, if possible for a reference of such small production, even rarer than the earlier versions. The present watch comes ccompanied by International Guarantee, presentation and outer box and leather folio.

We are pleased to present this 'Espresso' GMT that is sourced from VIP private collector.

Cartier
Ref. WSTA0056
Model: Tank Must De
In 2021, Cartier hit the rewind button back to the '80s with the release of the new colourful Tank Must watches. Unlike the vermeil versions, these watches are cased entirely in stainless steel – though they still house a quartz-powered movement.Sporting a similar minimalist styling – in fact, it's more minimal than ever. Gone is the double C icon, and the "must de" script. Now refined for a new generation, only the Cartier logo, and an hour and minute hand with a discreet Swiss Made writing down at the bottom remain. For this new release, Cartier produced three colours: burgundy, blue, and green. The lacquered dials give off a rich, deep appearance in the metal. Each variant of the watch comes with a matching alligator strap and pin buckle. Found in practically unworn condition, they also come complete with International Guarantee and boxes.

The Rolex "Pepsi" GMT is something of a mythical reference constantly surrounded by intrigue... Will it be discontinued? Did you know that the bezel is completely red under UV light?

Whatever the discussion, the fact remains that the modern interpretation of the “Pepsi” GMT remains one of the standout highlights of the Rolex catalogue for its everyday usability and pop of colour.

It is no secret that Patek's reference 5070 chronograph is a favourite of ours here at Perpetual, the dramatically stepped case and symmetrical subdials refer to some of the great chronographs of the 1940's whilst the oversized case and cleverly sculpted case back keep the proportions decidedly modern and comfortable. A brushed opaline dial with black gold hands and markers provide exceptional legibility (another reminder of the golden era of 'instrument' style wristwatches) and a historic, Lemania based, chronograph calibre beats inside. Presented with the original certificate, wallet and polished wooden box.

Ref. 5960/1A-010
Model: Annual Calendar Chronograph "One year Only"
One of the rarest modern Pateks, the stainless steel 5960/1A-010 was in production for only one year with this sporty black tri-colour dial reminiscent of the famous Rolex Paul Newman Daytonas. Found in superb, original condition, this sought after sports complication combines a fly-back chronograph with annual calendar and power reserve. Historically speaking, stainless steel Patek complications have been some of the most sought after creations to leave the Geneva workshops. Complete with Patek presentation box, original certificate, booklets and stylus.

Patek Philippe
Ref. 5070R-001
Unsealed by Phillips for photography, this 5070R had remained double sealed from Geneva for 15 years. Standing testament to this preservation is the oxidisation on the distinctive stepped bezel of the 42mm Rose Gold case. Rarely found in such perfect condition, it remains a seldom found example of a much admired reference with its Lemania based chronograph movement. Complete with its original warranty certificate, deposit receipt, leather wallet and booklets. This 2007 is one of the last examples before it was discontinued for the smaller, simpler cased, 5170.

F.P. Journe
Model: Octa Reserve De Marche
The Octa Reserve de Marche combines the classic asymmetric dial layout of F.P. Journe's earliest creations with an impressive 5-day power reserve and, now, signature large date. The famous frosted white gold dial with guilloché sub-dial is executed perfectly and this Octa RDM was from the early years of Journe's now iconic gold movements. Housed in the perfectly proportioned case and in superb condition, we are pleased to present this complete with the original box and warranty card.

F.P. Journe
Model: Platinum "Havana" 40mm
The Octa Automatique Lune was another GPHG victory for Journe when it was first launched and with its famous 5 day power reserve, off centre displays and comfortable 40mm case, has cemented itself as a favourite in the F.P. Journe pantheon. The present model, dubbed “Havana” due to its warm tobacco tones is unique to F.P. Journe, and developed by the in-house, Les Cadraniers de Genève team, result of the careful combination of gold and ruthenium. The present platinum example is found in very good condition, with minor signs of wear and of course comes complete with the original box, warranty and full accessories.
Sold
F.P. Journe
Model: "Boutique Edition" Chronometre Souverain
The purest form of Journe's watchmaking expression, this Chronometre Souverain is elevated by the considerably harder to find, black dial. Only ever available through F.P. Journe boutiques to select clients, these black on rose executions are always sought after and this one has come to us in perfect condition, complete with the original F.P. Journe box, warranty card, polishing cloth and booklets. The manual wind 1304 calibre is famously executed in 18 carat gold that shows off the hand finishing beautifully and utilises two main springs for a 56 hour power reserve.

De Bethune
Ref. DB25VGTIS3
Model: DB25 GMT Starry Varius
It seems somewhat unusual to refer to a 42mm watch as a “little sister”, but the DB25 Starry Varius GMT is closely related to the DB25 World Traveller introduced in 2016. Featuring a titanium case and movement components produced in white gold and Silicon, the DB25 Starry Varius GMT maintains De Bethune’s contemporary approach to watchmaking within a classic and universally admired case. Striking on the wrist, it provides a unique alternative to more traditional world time watches, with the added allure of the creative mind of multiple GPHG award-winning watchmaker, Denis Flageollet. Found in superb condition, the watch is complete with a full suite of accessories.

A. Lange & Söhne
Ref. 404.035
Model: Double Split
In 2004, A. Lange & Söhne introduced the Double Split. Marking an important moment for the history of horology, the A. Lange & Söhne Double Split is the first wristwatch in the world to feature a flyback chronograph with double rattrapante mechanism. Housed in the large 43mm diameter case lies the metropolis of the in-house caliber. L001.1. At immediate glance, the uninitiated would think that the Double Split is an oversized variant of the Datograph due to its similar case design and dial layout. However, the Double Split exceeds all expectations. Fitted with a split seconds hand, the chronograph is able to perform lap time measurements and time comparisons. With a movement comprised of 465 individual components, the Double Split is one of the most complicated movements ever crafted. Found complete with full accessories including International Guarantee and period DVD.

Cartier
Model: Diamond Crash
The Cartier Crash is one of the Maison's most recognised creations, coveted by scholars and devotees of the world’s most famous jeweller, but recent years have started to bring the watch to a wider stage as more and more collectors recognise its rarity and matchless off-beat elegance. Based on an iconic design from the mid-sixties London atelier, the 1990's saw a re-edition produced in 200 units, with a further small run set with brilliant white diamonds on the case and crown. Complete with its original certificate that confirms the original sale in March 1997, we are pleased to present this manually wound dress watch found in superb condition.
Sold
F.P. Journe
Model: Octa UTC
When Journe developed the Octa line, it was always designed to house and power a host of complications and the line saw chronographs, perpetual calendars and moonphases added but it took 10 years before the appearance of a second time-zone in the form of the Octa UTC. Universal Time Coordinated, is the international reference time (rather than the English Language favoured GMT) and here the second time-zone is displayed cleverly nested within the main sub-dial with a gold hand and matching 24 hour time scale. A clever time zone map at 8 o'clock tracks the location of your reference time as you travel whilst the signature large date and 120 hour power reserve maintain absolute practicality. Presented with its original F.P. Journe wooden box, warranty card, service history, stylus & booklet, we are pleased to present this 40mm version in superb condition.

Rolex
Ref. 116695SATS
Model: Yacht-Master 40 "Haribo"
Launched in 2017, the 116695SATS Yachtmaster was unlike anything Rolex had every produced before. Its candy-coloured gem set bezel immediately earned it the sweetest of nicknames, and complemented the 18ct Everose gold case beautifully. Set with 38 coloured sapphires and a single large diamond at 12, and available in both plain and pavé versions, it was this premium execution with the full diamond dial that really set the world alight and set the stage for the re-introduction of the Rainbow Daytona a year later. Found in excellent condition and complete with its full complement of original Rolex box, warranty card booklets and tag.

Patek Philippe
Ref. 5089G-121
Model: Calatrava, “Lighthouses of France"
One of two watches from the famed “Lighthouses of France” series to be ever publicly offered, this limited reference 5089G-121 is titled "Phare de la Vieille" and shows the iconic Breton Lighthouse ravaged by a raging storm. The dial in Grand Feu Cloisonné enamel requires between 42-44cm of gold wire measuring 0.05x 0.40 mm in cross section, together with opaque, semi-opaque, translucent and opalescent enamels in up to 32 colours. This particular reference goes beyond the others in series by also comprising embedded silver leaf to illuminate this breath taking scene. If ever a reference encapsulates the brilliance and artisan approach of Patek Philippe, it must surely be this. The white gold case, with sapphire case back protected by a hinged cover affords a personal view on request of the calibre 240 ultra slim movement. Consigned from the original owner in superb condition, the watch is accompanied by a full suite of accessories including International Limited Edition Certificate and box.

Ref. 3940R-026
Model: Unique "Ovitz" Perpetual Calendar
Savvy collectors will immediately spot that when Patek combine a Grand Complication with luminous hands and markers, it is almost always the result of a very special request. The MSO motif at 6 o'clock on the dial is the confirmation, a Piece Unique made for the one time head of Disney and Patek super collector, Michael Ovitz. By 2014, the 3940 had been out of production for close to 10 years, but was revived here in a one-off execution that combines a chocolate brown soleil dial with Breguet numerals, luminous hands and markers. Complete with its original certificate confirming the dial and date Mr Ovitz took delivery.

Greubel Forsey
Model: Balancier Convexe S2
From their very first watch, Greubel Forsey established themselves as dedicated to two key principles: horological invention, and unparalleled finishing. More recently, they have focussed keenly on comfort and ergonomics as well, with the current ‘Convexe’ cases wearing much more effortlessly than the masterpiece creations of their early years. This lightweight S2 is crafted in robust titanium, curves perfectly over the wrist, and although measuring a respectable 46.5mm, is designed without lugs to ensure it wears like a watch much smaller than the dimensions would suggest. Delving into the movement is a lesson in haute horology, perfect expanses of black polishing, bevelled screw slots, sharp internal angles and gorgeous hand grained plates are found at every turn. Magically the inclined balance appears to have no connection to the barrel or hands, a wheel train appears out of nowhere to slope up and away from the dial surface and drive the geometrically perfect curved hands. Only 66 of these absolute wonders have been made in this configuration and we are proud to present this example with its original box, warranty, loupe and additional rubber strap.

Patek Philippe
Ref. 5070P-001
Model: Platinum Chronograph "Last Lemania"
One of the final Patek 5070 models ever made, this platinum model from early 2010 has landed with us in superb condition and complete with its Patek box and original certificate. Famous for being the last of the 'Lemania era' Pateks, the platinum versions outrageously sized case was matched with and silky blue soleil dial, a perfect swansong for the model, and ultimately to the transitional, 'neo-vintage' days of Patek. The 42mm case has sharp, vintage inspired steps, a discreet diamond set in the case for 'those that know' and is slim enough to wear, surprisingly, more like a 40mm on the wrist. This is a watch that ticks a lot of boxes for collectors...

Audemars Piguet
Ref. 16202PT.OO.1240PT.01
Model: Platinum 50th Anniversary Royal Oak
To celebrate the 50th anniversary of watchmaking's most iconic sports watch, Audemars Piguet subtly refreshed their Jumbo with a brand new in-house calibre with quick-set(!) movement. The hero-piece of the new ref. 16202 was crafted in solid platinum and sports a brilliant green, smoked, dial which, unusually for the Royal Oak, is a rich soleil finish. Undoubtably the most striking, exclusive and sought after Royal Oak in AP's collection, this latest model is complete with the original AP box, booklets and warranty card.
Sold
F.P. Journe
Model: Chronomètre à Resonance
Designed as a celebration of 10 iconic years of the Chronomètre à Resonance, the F.P. Journe ref. RT, amusingly dubbed “Parking Meter”, is both a commemoration and a reinvention of one of the brand’s most iconic timepieces. With a dial layout that allows the user to track multiple time zones, the RT features both the traditional time display, as well as a 24-hour disc alongside it, elucidating the “Parking Meter” moniker. Having been awarded the Best Complication Watch Prize at the Grand Prix d’Horologerie in 2010 is perhaps the greatest testament to the significance of the innovation and craftsmanship of the RT. Featuring a dual-balance system, the Journe “Parking Meter” is not only an engineering masterpiece, but also of striking beauty. The 18ct rose gold case is contrasted superbly with the silver dials for the hours and minutes, whilst the striking red on the minute dial brightens the watch. Found in superb condition, and housed in its handsome F.P. Journe wooden presentation box, the watch is accompanied by Journe service history from 2019.

Patek Philippe
Ref. 5970J-001
Model: Grand Complication, Perpetual Calendar Chronograph
Widely respected as one of Patek's most 'perfect' designs since the legendary ref. 2499, the 5970 has become harder and harder to source in superb condition. The elegant case size, sculpted lugs, perfectly balanced dial that marries complexity with legibility is very hard to beat. The proportions and balance simply cannot be improved and of the 4 metals produced, the yellow gold is the rarest with only around 450 examples being made. This example from 2008 comes complete with its original box, certificate, additional case back, stylus and booklets.

F.P. Journe
Model: Chronomètre à Résonance
Combining Journe's signature complication, with not one, but two, Remontoir d'Egalités, the latest generation Chronomètre à Résonance is the most technically impressive yet. Relocating the winding crown to a more accessible position at 2 o'clock ensures it is also the easiest to use in the 20+ years of this model's development. With a scintillating silver dial that compliments the platinum case perfectly, the Chronomètre à Résonance exudes the essence of F.P. Journe perfectly. This 40mm example is found in superb condition with the original box and warranty card from 2023.

Model: 1815 Rattrapante
One of only 100 pieces created in Lange's proprietary "Honey Gold" alloy, this 1815 Hommage to F.A. Lange also bears a distinctive frosted finish across the 36 jewelled L101.2 calibre split second movement.Sporting a rich black dial with warm gold printing and subtle red accented quarter markers the 425.050 has a strong vintage feel but retains its resolutely modern Germanic style. Found in superb condition with the original presentation box and warranty booklets.

Patek Philippe
Ref. 5971P-001
Model: Diamond Set Perpetual Calendar Chronograph
Patek only ever enriched a relative handful of their signature Perpetual Calendar Chronographs with beautiful gem set bezels so to find one with a perfect diamond baguette bezel is a genuine rarity. The 5971P retains the piano-black dial of the classic 5970P and elevates it with elegant diamond hour markers and 36 diamonds on the bezel and a matching diamond set buckle. With more and more collectors and scholars recognising the incredible hand craft and rarity of these gem set Grand Complications they are becoming harder and harder to track down. This example, sourced from a private collection is complete with the original Patek polished wooden box, Certificate of Origin, booklets and stylus.

F.P. Journe
Model: "Pre-Souscription" Resonance
From the early days of F.P. Journe's production, this Resonance truly embodies the pioneering handmade works from the atelier and is the only one known in this configuration. Differing from the widely believed 'souscription' models as the first pieces, the 2000-delivered cases showcase distinct shallow engraving on the backs. This aligns with the 1st gen 'T' models' method, preceding the deeper finish on Resonance numbers 1-20 and subsequent production watches. We now know production began at least 40 watches prior, with cases for numbers 021-03X ordered in 1999, followed by 03X-06X still with early shallow engraving in 2000. The souscription series (001-020) were the first to boast deep engraving in 2000. Despite non-sequential completion dates, this production quirk adds an intriguing element. This example features a rich rose gold case, a warm, frosted, white gold dial, and the high shine and silvery subdials that are the signature of the earliest production. With only one Pre-Souscription Resonance known in rose gold, this is a rare beast indeed.
