Three Watches That Refused to Follow the Rules

Join Christie’s specialists Henry Ishikawa, Janet Tham and Rebecca Ross as they spotlight three remarkable timepieces from our upcoming New York Important Watches auction.

Henry introduces the Cartier London Baignoire Allongée, one of the most coveted and elusive creations to emerge from Cartier’s London workshops. Janet highlights a spectacular Piaget Tiger’s Eye Sautoir necklace watch, a bold fusion of jewellery, art and horology from the height of 1970s glamour. And Rebecca explores an Audemars Piguet jump hour wristwatch from 1928, whose futuristic display style feels strikingly modern nearly a century later.
