Pink gold applied markers?! . . .
. . . yes, it's a rare one, all right. Even more interesting, though, is the pink gold Constellation without dial script (Lot 140).
Thanks for highlighting this auction for us, Andrew.

Phillips – in Association with Aurel Bacs and Livia Russo – Auction One! Amazing watches!
It has been the auction house news over the winter season. Aurel Bacs departed Christies where he had taken the watches department from a menial $8million to a galactic $130million in less than a decade; a powerhouse in the auction watch market. Bacs set ...
Thanks! It is an impressive catalogue and I find myself walking past
lottery ticket shops that are not on my way home! Andrew H
I am not very sure about their Vintage FF 1000 Feet.
I would like to see close ups of the dial, but I don't feel it. Best, Nicolas
Would value your opinion on it - but by the same token,
Bacs has the highest standards when it comes to watches for his auction. It would be a shock. Andrew H
Yes, but here, there is something... I would love to see the way Aqualung is written.
I really don't feel the dial. And in every auctions, even the most prestigious, you have watches which are suspect... Best, Nicolas

I read the emphasis on these two words: authenticity and quality I also have more than doubts on other pieces, my friend. I have first hand knowledge of some of the pieces offered, where I have had the chance of having their dial tipped over... In fact wa...
That is something I never understood. We should have detailed reports on watches offered
In these auctions. It almost never happens. Almost because I saw some ( too rare ) detailled reports. Like pics of the case back, macros of the dial, case, movement number and serial number. But too rarely. When it comes to high lighted watches, I don't g...
Auction reveals Historical Changes in Patek Philippe Attitude
Andrew, Thanks for the preview. I agree with Mr Bacs that the relationship and respect for customer is key to building trust. He showed this by building annual sales at his last Auction House from a meagre $8M to that galactic $130M. The history revealed ...
Yeah, you're probably right . . .
. . . any affiliation with celebrity . . . . . . will likely have a negligible effect on realized hammer prices. :-) PS - I'm wandering over to the online catalog for a peek at the Omega ref 2367!

Loved Lot 80: more for the quality of the movement than for
anything else. But the watch speaks quality and in exemplary condition. A pleasure! Andrew H
Wow, amazing timepieces
The Doctor's watch, the albino Daytona, and the Aqualung are really amazing timepieces, very beautiful. I love them. Thanks for sharing. Vte
WOOOOW !
What a catalogue ! I would be happy with any of them but... if I had to pick one only it would be the PP 3448 WG This one is my absolute grail but by far out of reach ;-( Thanks for this very nice post. My dreams will be full of stars ;-))) Best, Mike
Which one to bid? Auction companies often make mistakes, but they're the best we've got..
Exciting auction. Nice summary Andrew of some choice watches. Good collection of some of the star pieces of the auction. It's a good auction, and it's been a while since I last saw such a nice auction gathering. I've been studying the auction offerings ve...
Strong lineup!
Is this Phillips first major watch auction? The lineup is full of interesting pieces at a range of prices, probably the best lineup top-to-bottom I've ever seen. I will be following along, at the very least.
