Mark your calendars this June 8 and 9 for an exciting sale. In a little over a month, Phillips will host its New York Watch Auction: X. The sale will feature some extraordinary timepieces from top brands like Rolex and Patek to industry legends like Philippe Dufour and F.P. Journe as well as lesser known yet highly revered names like Hajime Asaoka. Plus, today, Phillips has just announced the addition of two incredible Cartier clocks that will be up for grabs.
While Cartier has built a reputation within the horological community for its wristwatches, clocks are an equally important part of the Maison’s history. Its work in the realm of Mystery Clocks, or “Pendule Mystérieuse,” began with Maurice Coüet’s Model A back in 1912. Today, Phillips is proud to announce two of these exceptional clocks will be coming up for sale at the New York Watch Auction: X.
“F” is one of only about 20 to have ever been made and is considered the most coveted of all the Journe Centigraphes.You may be less familiar with the name Hajime Asaoka tan the others in this list. His journey into watchmaking began two decades ago after purchasing the legendary George Daniels’ famed book “Watchmaking.” This led him to the creation of his prototype Tourbillon Number 1, in 2009, and within two short years, he was producing a small collection of timepieces annually.
