Interested to hear if anyone has been involved in prior Only Watch auctions. How does it go? How was the experience?

Some pretty cool pieces this year and I was thinking of throwing my hat in the ring for a one in particular.

It's a charity play, with a lot of really wealthy people involved.

None of the valuations are going to make sense (obviously, and rightfully so, as a result).

Some of the indies might come through as a great bargain, though. For example, in 2019, the Gronefeld went for a steal, and I'm saddened to have missed out on it, but it went to a really, really great collector.

Yea, there are some good values with some of the lesser known/loved indies that may be worth monitoring. That GF piece from 2019 was definitely a steal.

If i had cash to play with, it would be 100% on the moser.

Are they accepting BTC / Crypto?

Was considering placing a bid on the LF. Agreed the Moser is definitely a great offering too.

For those wanting to browse the entries: https://www.onlywatch.com/collection

As you scroll through the maker’s logos just click to see what they offered for the auction.
