A First From a Watchmaker Who Rarely Gives Collectors One
An independent watchmaker has unveiled the first classic chronograph of his career — a complication he had never previously put his name on. Rather than route it through a boutique, he's sending it directly to auction, with proceeds earmarked for charity rather than his own business. For collectors from Palm Beach to Naples who track a maker's debuts the way others track a vintage, a genuine first from a respected workshop is the kind of lot that turns a paddle into a fight.
