Earlier today we told you that Phillips has a new international head of replica watches in ex-Christie's co-head Sam Hines ?but we know what you guys like to see, and that's watches. So we're back to give you a small little taste of the types of replica watches we'll see in the Phillips Geneva fake watch Auction: Two, taking place this November 8th.
Patek Philippe 2497 Perpetual Calendar In Pink GoldThe first fake watch we'll look at is a reference 2497 from Patek. The 2497 is considered one of the finest and most elegant replica watches made by the house of Patek ?it is a perpetual calendar dating to the 1950s. The last time we mentioned a 2497 on HODINKEE was when we saw a spectacular example from the collection of a Mr. Jason Singer in this episode of Talking Watches.
This particular example is special because it is in wonderful condition and one of the few pieces made not in yellow gold, but in rose. The estimate for this lot will be 400,000 to 800,000 CHF.
Yellow Gold Replica Rolex Daytona 6265 With Full Box And PapersOne of the great anomalies of vintage Replica Rolex collecting is the price by which gold examples sell versus those in steel. They are far more rare and they are, simply, made of a much more valuable material! Sport replica watches in gold often lead lives that cause the cases to be polished heavily or damaged ?not so with this example of the 6265.
You can see this late model 6265 gold is in like new condition, and comes complete with its hang tags, guarantee and box. This is a spectacular fake watch ?the estimate is 70,000 to 140,000 CHF.
This is just a little taste of what is to come in the Phillips November sale, stay tuned for more. All photos courtesy of PhillipsWatches.com.
