“We are really thrilled with the sale result and hope our vendors are happy too with the prices achieved,” said Halls’ associate director and silver and jewellery specialist Maryanne Lineker-Mobberley.“The sold rate was brilliant and prices were strong across the board with a busy saleroom and competitive bidding on three online platforms.

Watches specialist Alexander Clement said:"Gold watches did particularly well but there were also excellent prices for stainless steel examples,” he said. “Even though wristwatch prices have settled down since the market peaked in 2022, there is still a lot of growth.
