Sotheby’s Set to Auction Rare Platinum and Diamond Patek Philippe

Sotheby’s is set to host their Important Watches auction in Hong Kong, so today we’re taking a look at one of the watches that will go under the gavel. The lots for the upcoming October 8 sale are from a private collection, with timepieces from Patek Philippe, Vacheron Constantin, Richard Mille and Greubel Forsey.

One of the pieces we’re most excited to see is a rare Patek Philippe automatic minute repeating perpetual calendar in a platinum and diamond case. Known as Ref. 5073, this piece is pictured above.

The Important Watches auction will also include a pink gold Vacheron Constantin Patrimony Grand Complication wristwatch, Ref. 80172, and the Richard Mille RM038 magnesium cased tourbillon specially designed for golfer Bubba Watson.
