Introduced in 1996, the Duality was Philippe Dufour\u2019s second wristwatch. Like his groundbreaking Grande &amp; Petite Sonnerie, it was another world\u2019s first \u2014 the first wristwatch ever constructed with a double escapement, featuring two independent balance wheels regulated through a central differential. Although Dufour intended to produce 25 examples, the sheer complexity of crafting, assembling, and regulating each movement proved far more difficult than a tourbillon. Ultimately, only 10 Duality wristwatches were made. The present watch, previously unknown to the market, is consigned by an important collector who purchased it from the meticulous original owner and is accompanied not only by its certificate and wooden presentation box, but also by rarely seen paperwork including the original press kit and movement renderings. Its appearance marks a moment of genuine importance in the evolving scholarship of Philippe Dufour and, indeed, in the broader history of modern mechanical watchmaking.<\/p>\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"891\" height=\"1024\" data-attachment-id=\"139473\" src=\"https:\/\/watchilove.com\/lot-95-philippe-dufour_simplicity-37mm-no-01\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/watchilove.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/LOT-95-Philippe-Dufour_Simplicity-37MM-No.-01.jpg?fit=1500%2C1724&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"1500,1724\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;1&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"LOT 95 \u2013 Philippe Dufour_Simplicity 37MM No. 01\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"&lt;p&gt;LOT 95 | PHILIPPE DUFOUR, Simplicity 37MM \u201cNo. 01\u201d&lt;\/p&gt;&#10;\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/watchilove.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/LOT-95-Philippe-Dufour_Simplicity-37MM-No.-01.jpg?fit=261%2C300&amp;ssl=1\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/watchilove.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/LOT-95-Philippe-Dufour_Simplicity-37MM-No.-01.jpg?fit=891%2C1024&amp;ssl=1\" alt=\"LOT 95 | PHILIPPE DUFOUR, Simplicity 37MM \u201cNo. 01\u201d\" class=\"wp-image-139473\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/watchilove.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/LOT-95-Philippe-Dufour_Simplicity-37MM-No.-01.jpg?resize=891%2C1024&amp;ssl=1 891w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/watchilove.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/LOT-95-Philippe-Dufour_Simplicity-37MM-No.-01.jpg?resize=261%2C300&amp;ssl=1 261w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/watchilove.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/LOT-95-Philippe-Dufour_Simplicity-37MM-No.-01.jpg?resize=768%2C883&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/watchilove.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/LOT-95-Philippe-Dufour_Simplicity-37MM-No.-01.jpg?resize=1336%2C1536&amp;ssl=1 1336w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/watchilove.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/LOT-95-Philippe-Dufour_Simplicity-37MM-No.-01.jpg?resize=465%2C534&amp;ssl=1 465w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/watchilove.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/LOT-95-Philippe-Dufour_Simplicity-37MM-No.-01.jpg?resize=435%2C500&amp;ssl=1 435w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/watchilove.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/LOT-95-Philippe-Dufour_Simplicity-37MM-No.-01.jpg?w=1500&amp;ssl=1 1500w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 891px) 100vw, 891px\" data-pagespeed-url-hash=\"1997683184\" onload=\"pagespeed.CriticalImages.checkImageForCriticality(this);\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">LOT 95 | PHILIPPE DUFOUR, Simplicity 37MM \u201cNo. 01\u201d<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-lot-95-philippe-dufour-simplicity-37mm-no-01\">LOT 95 | PHILIPPE DUFOUR, Simplicity 37MM \u201cNo. 01\u201d<\/h2>\n<p><strong>Estimate: $350,000\u2013700,000<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Philippe Dufour\u2019s Simplicity No. 01, housed in a 37mm pink-gold case with white lacquer dial, is of extraordinary significance. As the very first 37mm example ever produced, it represents the genesis of Dufour\u2019s larger-case evolution, a model that redefined contemporary appreciation for artisanal finishing and classical proportion. Introduced in 2000 as a tribute to the golden age of Swiss watchmaking, the Simplicity embodies Dufour\u2019s ethos of patience, perfection, and authenticity, with every component of the movement hand-finished to his exacting standards.

With boldly engraved serial and reference numbers showing no signs of wear, this is one of the best-preserved Killys to surface in recent years, and an unmissable opportunity for the Rolex collecting community.<\/p>\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"891\" height=\"1024\" data-attachment-id=\"139447\" src=\"https:\/\/watchilove.com\/lot-97-fpjourne_chronometre-a-resonance-sincere-fine-watches\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/watchilove.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/LOT-97-FPJourne_Chronometre-a-Resonance-Sincere-Fine-Watches.jpg?fit=1500%2C1724&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"1500,1724\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;1&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"LOT 97 \u2013 FPJourne_Chronom\u00e8tre \u00e0 R\u00e9sonance Sincere Fine Watches\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"&lt;p&gt;LOT 97 | F.P.JOURNE, Chronom\u00e8tre \u00e0 R\u00e9sonance \u201cSincere Fine Watches\u201d&lt;\/p&gt;&#10;\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/watchilove.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/LOT-97-FPJourne_Chronometre-a-Resonance-Sincere-Fine-Watches.jpg?fit=261%2C300&amp;ssl=1\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/watchilove.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/LOT-97-FPJourne_Chronometre-a-Resonance-Sincere-Fine-Watches.jpg?fit=891%2C1024&amp;ssl=1\" alt=\"LOT 97 | F.P.JOURNE, Chronom\u00e8tre \u00e0 R\u00e9sonance \u201cSincere Fine Watches\u201d\" class=\"wp-image-139447\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/watchilove.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/LOT-97-FPJourne_Chronometre-a-Resonance-Sincere-Fine-Watches.jpg?resize=891%2C1024&amp;ssl=1 891w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/watchilove.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/LOT-97-FPJourne_Chronometre-a-Resonance-Sincere-Fine-Watches.jpg?resize=261%2C300&amp;ssl=1 261w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/watchilove.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/LOT-97-FPJourne_Chronometre-a-Resonance-Sincere-Fine-Watches.jpg?resize=768%2C883&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/watchilove.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/LOT-97-FPJourne_Chronometre-a-Resonance-Sincere-Fine-Watches.jpg?resize=1336%2C1536&amp;ssl=1 1336w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/watchilove.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/LOT-97-FPJourne_Chronometre-a-Resonance-Sincere-Fine-Watches.jpg?resize=465%2C534&amp;ssl=1 465w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/watchilove.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/LOT-97-FPJourne_Chronometre-a-Resonance-Sincere-Fine-Watches.jpg?resize=435%2C500&amp;ssl=1 435w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/watchilove.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/LOT-97-FPJourne_Chronometre-a-Resonance-Sincere-Fine-Watches.jpg?w=1500&amp;ssl=1 1500w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 891px) 100vw, 891px\" data-pagespeed-url-hash=\"2684820344\" onload=\"pagespeed.CriticalImages.checkImageForCriticality(this);\"\/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-lot-97-f-p-journe-chronometre-a-resonance-sincere-fine-watches\">LOT 97 | F.P.JOURNE, Chronom\u00e8tre \u00e0 R\u00e9sonance \u201cSincere Fine Watches\u201d<\/h2>\n<p><strong>Estimate: $300,000\u2013600,000<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The present 40mm Chronom\u00e8tre \u00e0 R\u00e9sonance in 18K pink gold may resemble a coveted \u201cBoutique Edition,\u201d but it is in fact far rarer. Its dial, crafted from a thin slice of natural black mother-of-pearl, reveals a mesmerizing array of iridescent hues when tilted toward the light \u2014 an effect that sets it apart from the standard black dials introduced in 2010. Produced as part of a limited series for the 50th anniversary of Singaporean retailer Sincere Fine Watches, only 10 examples of the R\u00e9sonance were made in this configuration. Black mother-of-pearl, also known as Tahitian mother-of-pearl, is significantly rarer than its white counterpart. Complete with its certificate of authenticity, warranty, and original accessories, this visually captivating timepiece offers collectors a rare opportunity to acquire one of F.P.Journe\u2019s most extraordinary and elusive creations.<\/p>\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"891\" height=\"1024\" data-attachment-id=\"139470\" src=\"https:\/\/watchilove.com\/lot-41-patek-philippe_ref-3940j-dore-dial\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/watchilove.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/LOT-41-Patek-Philippe_Ref.-3940J-Dore-Dial.jpg?fit=1500%2C1724&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"1500,1724\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;1&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"LOT 41 \u2013 Patek Philippe_Ref. 3940J Dor\u00e9 Dial\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"&lt;p&gt;LOT 41 | PATEK PHILIPPE, Ref. 3940J \u201cDor\u00e9 Dial\u201d&lt;\/p&gt;&#10;\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/watchilove.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/LOT-41-Patek-Philippe_Ref.-3940J-Dore-Dial.jpg?fit=261%2C300&amp;ssl=1\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/watchilove.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/LOT-41-Patek-Philippe_Ref.-3940J-Dore-Dial.jpg?fit=891%2C1024&amp;ssl=1\" alt=\"LOT 41 | PATEK PHILIPPE, Ref. 3940J \u201cDor\u00e9 Dial\u201d\" class=\"wp-image-139470\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/watchilove.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/LOT-41-Patek-Philippe_Ref.-3940J-Dore-Dial.jpg?resize=891%2C1024&amp;ssl=1 891w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/watchilove.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/LOT-41-Patek-Philippe_Ref.-3940J-Dore-Dial.jpg?resize=261%2C300&amp;ssl=1 261w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/watchilove.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/LOT-41-Patek-Philippe_Ref.-3940J-Dore-Dial.jpg?resize=768%2C883&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/watchilove.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/LOT-41-Patek-Philippe_Ref.-3940J-Dore-Dial.jpg?resize=1336%2C1536&amp;ssl=1 1336w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/watchilove.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/LOT-41-Patek-Philippe_Ref.-3940J-Dore-Dial.jpg?resize=465%2C534&amp;ssl=1 465w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/watchilove.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/LOT-41-Patek-Philippe_Ref.-3940J-Dore-Dial.jpg?resize=435%2C500&amp;ssl=1 435w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/watchilove.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/LOT-41-Patek-Philippe_Ref.-3940J-Dore-Dial.jpg?w=1500&amp;ssl=1 1500w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 891px) 100vw, 891px\" data-pagespeed-url-hash=\"168577793\" onload=\"pagespeed.CriticalImages.checkImageForCriticality(this);\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">LOT 41 | PATEK PHILIPPE, Ref. 3940J \u201cDor\u00e9 Dial\u201d<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-lot-41-patek-philippe-ref-3940j-dore-dial\">LOT 41 | PATEK PHILIPPE, Ref. 3940J \u201cDor\u00e9 Dial\u201d<\/h2>\n<p><strong>Estimate: $120,000\u2013240,000<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The present Patek Philippe reference 3940J is a particularly exceptional example of this legendary model, bearing all the hallmarks of early-series production and featuring the elusive dor\u00e9 dial, confirmed by its Certificate of Origin. Introduced in 1985, reference 3940 marked a pivotal moment in modern watchmaking, ushering in a new era of ultra-slim automatic perpetual calendars and embodying Philippe Stern\u2019s vision of mechanical purity and timeless design. The dor\u00e9 dial, with its golden-pink hue, was produced exclusively during the first and early second series and is revered by collectors for both its beauty and historical significance. Accompanied by its original Certificate of Origin, purchase receipt, and presentation box, the present watch offers a rare glimpse into how such timepieces were originally delivered at the height of Patek Philippe\u2019s late-20th-century renaissance. To encounter a dor\u00e9-dial 3940J in this state of preservation and completeness is nearly unheard of, making it a true prize for the discerning collector.<\/p>\n<figure data-carousel-extra=\"{\"

WATCHES<\/h2>\n<p>F.P.Journe\u2019s Souscription series represents the genesis of one of the most important independent watchmaking ventures of the modern era. Offered to the first twenty clients who subscribed to Journe\u2019s inaugural Tourbillon Souverain, these watches not only financed the birth of his manufacture but also laid the foundation for a legacy of technical innovation and mechanical poetry. The New York Watch Auction: XIII is proud to present three incredible examples from the series. The Chronom\u00e8tre \u00e0 R\u00e9sonance No. 17 is among the three to be offered in December, confirmed by its Authenticity Certificate as one of the elusive Souscription series \u2014 distinguished by its deep, laser-etched caseback and its philosophical pursuit of chronometric harmony. Matching it in number and provenance, the Octa R\u00e9serve de Marche No. 17 features a white gold dial and showcases Journe\u2019s foresight in creating an automatic movement designed for future complications, offered here fresh-to-market with its original accessories and Authenticity Certificate confirming it as a Souscription watch. Completing the trio is the Octa Chronographe No. 19, a rare and technically groundbreaking flyback chronograph with a 120-hour power reserve and shimmery pink gold dial, representing one of the most inventive chronograph wristwatches of its time. Together, these three Souscription watches form a remarkable constellation of early Journe production \u2014 each a milestone in the evolution of independent horology.<\/p>\n<figure data-carousel-extra=\"{\" blog_id\":1,\"permalink\":\"https:\\=\"\" \\=\"\" watchilove.com\\=\"\" 2025\\=\"\" 11\\=\"\" phillips-announces-extraordinary-watch-auction-in-new-york-this-december\\=\"\" \"}\"=\"\" class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-2 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"891\" height=\"1024\" data-attachment-id=\"139466\" src=\"https:\/\/watchilove.com\/lot-23-omega_speedmaster-professional-mir-365-days\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/watchilove.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/LOT-23-Omega_Speedmaster-Professional-MIR-365-Days.jpg?fit=1500%2C1724&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"1500,1724\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;1&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"LOT 23 \u2013 Omega_Speedmaster Professional MIR 365 Days\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"&lt;p&gt;LOT 23 | OMEGA&lt;br \/&gt;&#10;Speedmaster Professional \u201cMIR 365 Days\u201d&lt;br \/&gt;&#10;Estimate: $60,000\u2013120,000&lt;\/p&gt;&#10;\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/watchilove.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/LOT-23-Omega_Speedmaster-Professional-MIR-365-Days.jpg?fit=261%2C300&amp;ssl=1\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/watchilove.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/LOT-23-Omega_Speedmaster-Professional-MIR-365-Days.jpg?fit=891%2C1024&amp;ssl=1\" data-id=\"139466\" alt=\"LOT 23 | OMEGA&#10;Speedmaster Professional \u201cMIR 365 Days\u201d&#10;Estimate: $60,000\u2013120,000\" class=\"wp-image-139466\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/watchilove.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/LOT-23-Omega_Speedmaster-Professional-MIR-365-Days.jpg?resize=891%2C1024&amp;ssl=1 891w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/watchilove.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/LOT-23-Omega_Speedmaster-Professional-MIR-365-Days.jpg?resize=261%2C300&amp;ssl=1 261w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/watchilove.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/LOT-23-Omega_Speedmaster-Professional-MIR-365-Days.jpg?resize=768%2C883&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/watchilove.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/LOT-23-Omega_Speedmaster-Professional-MIR-365-Days.jpg?resize=1336%2C1536&amp;ssl=1 1336w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/watchilove.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/LOT-23-Omega_Speedmaster-Professional-MIR-365-Days.jpg?resize=465%2C534&amp;ssl=1 465w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/watchilove.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/LOT-23-Omega_Speedmaster-Professional-MIR-365-Days.jpg?resize=435%2C500&amp;ssl=1 435w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/watchilove.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/LOT-23-Omega_Speedmaster-Professional-MIR-365-Days.jpg?w=1500&amp;ssl=1 1500w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 891px) 100vw, 891px\" data-pagespeed-url-hash=\"1596399158\" onload=\"pagespeed.CriticalImages.checkImageForCriticality(this);\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">LOT 23 | OMEGA<br \/>Speedmaster Professional \u201cMIR 365 Days\u201d<br \/>Estimate: $60,000\u2013120,000<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"891\" height=\"1024\" data-attachment-id=\"139468\" src=\"https:\/\/watchilove.com\/lot-28-omega_ref-pa-16-331-constellation-grande-luxe-platinum\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/watchilove.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/LOT-28-Omega_Ref.-PA-16.331-Constellation-Grande-Luxe-Platinum.jpg?fit=1500%2C1724&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"1500,1724\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;1&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"LOT 28 \u2013 Omega_Ref.

The Constellation Grande Luxe \u201cPlatinum\u201d Ref. PA 16.331 is one of only two known examples, believed to have been specially commissioned for a member of the Kuwaiti royal family in the late 1950s. Executed entirely in platinum and adorned with diamond hour markers, it radiates refinement and is preserved in superb condition with an Omega Certificate from 2003. The Speedmaster Professional \u201cMIR 365 Days\u201d is one of just 28 stainless steel examples flown aboard the MIR space station for a full year from 1993 to 1994. Number 23 in the series, it is offered in outstanding condition with the most complete set of original Omega accessories ever seen publicly. Completing the trio is the Tourbillon 30 I, one of only twelve experimental movements created by Omega in 1947 for observatory chronometer trials, and one of just three known to be cased in 18K yellow gold. With a remarkable competition pedigree and an exceptional state of preservation, it stands as one of the most important Omega wristwatches ever offered at auction. Together, these watches form a museum-worthy testament to Omega\u2019s technical mastery and enduring legacy.<\/p>\n<div data-carousel-extra=\"{\" blog_id\":1,\"permalink\":\"https:\\=\"\" \\=\"\"
