A circa-2001 Tourbillon Souverain No. 069 pairs a platinum case with an exceptionally rare shiny yellow-gold dial, with only nine examples of the configuration currently documented. Part of the sought-after third series of early brass-movement Tourbillon Souverain models, it combines a tourbillon with a remontoir d\u2019\u00e9galit\u00e9 and is estimated at $3.9 million \u2013 $11.6 million HKD ($500,000 \u2013 $1.49 million USD). Also appearing is a Centigraphe Souverain Anniversaire Hong Kong Boutique Edition, number 10 of 20 pieces produced in 2016, estimated between $2.4 million \u2013 $4.8 million HKD ($308,000 \u2013 $615,000 USD), alongside the first-produced example of the Octa Calendrier Ruthenium, numbered 01 of 99 and carrying an estimate in excess of $1.6 million HKD ($205,000 USD).\n<\/p>\n<p>Beyond Journe, the sale broadens into a cross-section of contemporary independent horology. A titanium Kari Voutilainen Vingt-8 with a hand-guilloch\u00e9 blue enamel dial \u2013 one of only two special commissions in titanium \u2013 is estimated at $1.5 million \u2013 $2.5 million HKD ($192,000 \u2013 $321,000 USD), while Beat Haldimann\u2019s platinum H1 Flying Central Tourbillon \u201cThe PuristS Edition\u201d Series 2 carries an estimate of $1 million \u2013 $2 million HKD ($128,000 to $256,000 USD).

Part of the sought-after third series of early brass-movement Tourbillon Souverain models, it combines a tourbillon with a remontoir d\u2019\u00e9galit\u00e9 and is estimated at $3.9 million \u2013 $11.6 million HKD ($500,000 \u2013 $1.49 million USD). Also appearing is a Centigraphe Souverain Anniversaire Hong Kong Boutique Edition, number 10 of 20 pieces produced in 2016, estimated between $2.4 million \u2013 $4.8 million HKD ($308,000 \u2013 $615,000 USD), alongside the first-produced example of the Octa Calendrier Ruthenium, numbered 01 of 99 and carrying an estimate in excess of $1.6 million HKD ($205,000 USD).\n<\/p>\n<p>Beyond Journe, the sale broadens into a cross-section of contemporary independent horology. A titanium Kari Voutilainen Vingt-8 with a hand-guilloch\u00e9 blue enamel dial \u2013 one of only two special commissions in titanium \u2013 is estimated at $1.5 million \u2013 $2.5 million HKD ($192,000 \u2013 $321,000 USD), while Beat Haldimann\u2019s platinum H1 Flying Central Tourbillon \u201cThe PuristS Edition\u201d Series 2 carries an estimate of $1 million \u2013 $2 million HKD ($128,000 to $256,000 USD).

Journe leads with rare Chronom\u00e8tre \u00e0 R\u00e9sonance and Tourbillon Souverain examples.<\/p>\n<p>Voutilainen, Haldimann, Auffret and Kiu Tai Yu also feature among the November highlights.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n<p>Phillips in Association with Bacs &amp; Russo is sharpening the focus on independent watchmaking for The Hong Kong Watch Auction: XXIII, set to take place in November.

Journe Chronom\u00e8tre \u00e0 R\u00e9sonance \u201cParking Meter\u201d Mark Cho Special, one of just five examples made and offered directly from the personal collection of The Armoury co-founder Mark Cho. Created in collaboration with Fran\u00e7ois-Paul Journe and Pierre Halimi, the 38mm platinum watch features a navy-and-warm-toned dial personally selected by Cho and carries an estimate of $6 million \u2013 $12 million HKD ( approx. $769,000 \u2013 $1.54 million USD).<\/p>\n<p>F.P.

A circa-2001 Tourbillon Souverain No. 069 pairs a platinum case with an exceptionally rare shiny yellow-gold dial, with only nine examples of the configuration currently documented. Part of the sought-after third series of early brass-movement Tourbillon Souverain models, it combines a tourbillon with a remontoir d\u2019\u00e9galit\u00e9 and is estimated at $3.9 million \u2013 $11.6 million HKD ($500,000 \u2013 $1.49 million USD). Also appearing is a Centigraphe Souverain Anniversaire Hong Kong Boutique Edition, number 10 of 20 pieces produced in 2016, estimated between $2.4 million \u2013 $4.8 million HKD ($308,000 \u2013 $615,000 USD), alongside the first-produced example of the Octa Calendrier Ruthenium, numbered 01 of 99 and carrying an estimate in excess of $1.6 million HKD ($205,000 USD).\n<\/p>\n<p>Beyond Journe, the sale broadens into a cross-section of contemporary independent horology. A titanium Kari Voutilainen Vingt-8 with a hand-guilloch\u00e9 blue enamel dial \u2013 one of only two special commissions in titanium \u2013 is estimated at $1.5 million \u2013 $2.5 million HKD ($192,000 \u2013 $321,000 USD), while Beat Haldimann\u2019s platinum H1 Flying Central Tourbillon \u201cThe PuristS Edition\u201d Series 2 carries an estimate of $1 million \u2013 $2 million HKD ($128,000 to $256,000 USD).

Journe leads with rare Chronom\u00e8tre \u00e0 R\u00e9sonance and Tourbillon Souverain examples.<\/p>\n<p>Voutilainen, Haldimann, Auffret and Kiu Tai Yu also feature among the November highlights.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n<p>Phillips in Association with Bacs &amp; Russo is sharpening the focus on independent watchmaking for The Hong Kong Watch Auction: XXIII, set to take place in November. Following the previously announced group of rare Patek Philippe wristwatches leading the sale, the latest highlights bring together fresh-to-market pieces from F.P. Journe, Kari Voutilainen, Beat Haldimann, Th\u00e9o Auffret and Kiu Tai Yu, with rarity, provenance and collector-driven commissions running throughout the selection.<\/p>\n<p>At the top of the group is the F.P. Journe Chronom\u00e8tre \u00e0 R\u00e9sonance \u201cParking Meter\u201d Mark Cho Special, one of just five examples made and offered directly from the personal collection of The Armoury co-founder Mark Cho. Created in collaboration with Fran\u00e7ois-Paul Journe and Pierre Halimi, the 38mm platinum watch features a navy-and-warm-toned dial personally selected by Cho and carries an estimate of $6 million \u2013 $12 million HKD ( approx. $769,000 \u2013 $1.54 million USD).<\/p>\n<p>F.P. Journe continues to dominate the upper end of the independent offering. A circa-2001 Tourbillon Souverain No. 069 pairs a platinum case with an exceptionally rare shiny yellow-gold dial, with only nine examples of the configuration currently documented. Part of the sought-after third series of early brass-movement Tourbillon Souverain models, it combines a tourbillon with a remontoir d\u2019\u00e9galit\u00e9 and is estimated at $3.9 million \u2013 $11.6 million HKD ($500,000 \u2013 $1.49 million USD). Also appearing is a Centigraphe Souverain Anniversaire Hong Kong Boutique Edition, number 10 of 20 pieces produced in 2016, estimated between $2.4 million \u2013 $4.8 million HKD ($308,000 \u2013 $615,000 USD), alongside the first-produced example of the Octa Calendrier Ruthenium, numbered 01 of 99 and carrying an estimate in excess of $1.6 million HKD ($205,000 USD).\n<\/p>\n<p>Beyond Journe, the sale broadens into a cross-section of contemporary independent horology. A titanium Kari Voutilainen Vingt-8 with a hand-guilloch\u00e9 blue enamel dial \u2013 one of only two special commissions in titanium \u2013 is estimated at $1.5 million \u2013 $2.5 million HKD ($192,000 \u2013 $321,000 USD), while Beat Haldimann\u2019s platinum H1 Flying Central Tourbillon \u201cThe PuristS Edition\u201d Series 2 carries an estimate of $1 million \u2013 $2 million HKD ($128,000 to $256,000 USD).
