路Lot 152 (Paul Newman 6241) had sold for 197,000CHF in 2013 and sold for 220,000CHF today again.... isn't that a bit disappointing??
Or a sign that the Paul Newman frenzy is cooling off??

路Talking about trends, I think lot 172 illustrates the increasing importance of condition.
Estimate 6-8,000 CHF, hammered 32,000.

...and lot 176 (ca 2915-2 with replacement bezel) is further proof of this!!

路I noticed that in general, a lot of the steel Daytonas hammered within the estimate range (maybe slightly above), and a lot of watches in general hammered at a reasonable price (considering this is a Phillips auction). I think there is so much knowledge out there, and folks are rightfully demanding the best condition and reasonable provenance info for the pieces that are fetching the highest prices. I assume this is a good thing for this little hobby of ours...

路The Vacheron Constantin minute repeater, retrograde date tonneau watch from 1940 (Lot 109), one of the most important wristwatches of the 20th century went for CHF 740,000, a bargain for what it represents. Lucky buyer. Outside of the Daniels Grand Complication this was the top lot of the auction, imho.
