This Saturday evening, Christie's in Geneva was the stage for ONLY WATCH 2017, a charity auction in which the proceeds are being used to help find a cure for Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy. Watch brands donate unique watches to the auction, giving collectors and connoisseurs the opportunity to own a truly unique watch. While all watches did well, some did a bit better than others!

Pierre Jaquet-Droz had an unusual talent; he could make the most complicated, real-life looking automatons. These dolls performed extraordinary feats, such as drawing a face down to the last detail or write a letter with an ink pen, perfectly legible. Today that legacy still lives on in the company that bears its name, but now in wristwatches, and the latest is the Loving Butterfly Automaton.

Smaller and thinner watches seem to be the trend again lately, but sometimes you just need a larger watch. Not only because you enjoy wearing something substantial on your wrist, but also because this provides the room to fit it with the most extraordinary complications!

Granted, these skeletons are not very scary, so that might make them even more perfect for your closet because they will complement a large range of outfits. Skeleton watches have always been quite a challenge to make, as you cut away what a watch so desperately needs: the stability of the main plate and bridges. That makes skeleton watches almost like a walk on the high wire for watchmakers, and so enticing for the rest of us!

With the passing of Roger Dubuis, we lost somebody who has been a big influence on the world of the Haute Horlogerie. While the master himself was not as involved in the company that bears his name as in the past, in part due to the sale to Richemont in 2008, the foundation of complicated avant-garde watches is safely guarded in the DNA of the brand. With a brand like Roger Dubuis, which has so many incredible watches in its collection, it is hard to call favorites, but fun for sure!

The high expectations were met today as Paul Newman's Daytona was auctioned during a relatively short but sweet bidding war, being sold for 15.5 million dollars. That makes it instantly the most expensive Rolex ever to be sold at auction, as it scatters the record even quite recently set by the "Bao Dai", the full calendar Rolex that belonged to the last emperor of Vietnam.
