With the support of auctioneer Armelle de Chappedelaine, nearly 30 watches are being offered to enthusiasts and connoisseurs! With estimates sometimes under €100, this sale is accessible to as many people as possible. Among the most attractive pieces, a rare Atmos clock, designed by Australian designer Marc Newson to celebrate the 80ᵉ anniversary of the House of Jaeger LeCoultre, is priced at €4,000. Produced in only 888 pieces and priced at €39,600 at launch, this so-called “perpetual” clock is a decorative and technically impressive piece.
