HEADLINERS:
Above, Rolex Cosmograph Daytona, reference 6265, fresh to market having sat in a safety deposit box since the mid 1980s, completely unpolished with box, papers and matching hang tags.
Above, an exceedingly rare watch, one of the most impressive American watches in existence, Waltham minute repeater with split-seconds chronograph and 60-minute register, 16-17J, 16S, in very heavy 18K gold.
This is one of only two total examples of which we are aware! The lone other example of a split-seconds minute repeating Waltham that we have encountered is serial number 3793206 (a consecutive serial number to the presently offered watch) which was sold by Sothebys in 2004, was formerly a part of the Rockford Time Museum collection, and had a case noted as "reconstructed" with "new covers, bow, crown, & stem" per Donald Hoke's "The Time Museum Historical Catalogue of American Watches." The presently offered example is notable for its superb condition throughout including its very heavy original gold hunting case made by prestigious New York casemaker Jeannot & Shiebler. In all an exquisitely beautiful piece, and we are thrilled to offer it in our April Live Auction Event to the collecting community!
