Charity auctions always get a premium++, there's some 'goodwill' in those high bids that goes beyond usual 'need' to acquire a piece.
Good news for Tudor. |

Tremendous results for a good cause.
Plenty and plenty of money looking for the ultimate exclusivities....1:1 doesn't get any more exclusive than that. |

That Tudor result is nothing short of astonishing when you compare the expected result to the actual result. Other marques didn't achieve the same multiples.
Anyway it all goes to a good cause which is the important point of the event |

It's for a wonderful cause, thank you Tudor for taking part in this wonderful event.
Love the BBC!

Imagine a specialty Rolex went up for sale… green dial stainless steel Daytona with open case back… would have went for 10 million plus.
What a great industry raising Money for such a great cause! |

I am surprised Blancpain Tribute to 50 Fathoms No Rad went only for 162K. No Blancpain fans for Only Watch?

FPJ, price aside, is the one timepiece I'd 'sell a kidney' for. So much variety of innovation is happening by quite a few ingenious independents. In some ways we're living in Peak Creativity and Implementation for high horology
Very tempting. Very.

I couldn’t agree more… it’s a great time to expand the collection, however the pricing for some of the independents isn’t for the faint of hearts

Agreed. Instead of words, here's a video. Bask in the genius of skilled craftspeople working together...

If I remember correctly, Only Watch benefits Muscular Dystrophy. You all may be interested to know I have a form of that called SMA. Pretty cool for me as a TRF member to see this awareness happening here :)
That Tudor really killed it eh!?! Nice piece, one of a kind, great cause for sure! My gratitude to the winner! |
