Are we allowed to discuss secondary prices 🤔 ?
Perhaps OW auctions are different Bc the watches are new and unsold
Anyway; congrats to Journe and OW. We always knew this watch would blow it out of the water
Thanks for sharing
FFC sold at 4.5 million CHF just now
I’m sitting the room. What an achievement and for a good cause FP looks happy … Huge congratulations and well done to watch maker and bidders. ...
A big day foR FPJ as it was also a new auction record for the brand.
It was very well deserved.
I agree. It’s a very different auction as the atmosphere is very friendly celebration
A friendly match for a good cause.

Great for Journe.
Bad for us collectors. And honestly, there couldn’t have been a good reason why FP tried to look like the strap on the watch. 😏
There is a very good reason for the color - it’s the color of Only Watch

So they couldn't bother to finish this part? I'm sorry, that's not okay and it's not only lazy...
It's insulting to the watch collecting community.
If an unfinished multi-million dollar watch isn't a slap in the face,
I don't know what is.. But to each their own. I will never understand the allure of journe.
I must have been sitting behind you in Row F.
Big congrats to the bidders! A tremendous achievement.
You where in GVA?
So is Patrick. Next time I will announce I’m going so we have a chance to arrange a GTG.
I missed Patrick too we were both to busy to meet on the last day 😔
Lets hope we will get another chance soon 🙏🏻🤗
I believe it is the new record highest hammer/sale/bid price for any independent-AHCI wristwatch...
... exceeding the Swiss Francs 3.9M hammer/sale/bid price achieved by the Dufour Grande et Petite Sonnerie about 24 hours earlier.
Depends on whether one includes the buyer's premium in the numbers...
Christie's does not charge a buyer's premium for Only Watch. On hammer/sale/bid pricing, the FFC (at Christie's) hammered for more than the Sonnerie (at Phillips). On the price paid by the buyer (sometimes referred to as the 'realised price'), the Sonneri...
Both good points you make.
Still I think the buyers price / final price is for me the reference point. I do see your other point though.
To be fair, my initial view was the same...
Buyers will almost certainly know to check what (if any) buyer's premium is payable on top of the hammer price. Therefore, the price inclusive of the buyer's premium is what the buyer is willing to pay (or can be taken as what the buyer is willing to pay)...
