Luxury watch auctions scheduled in Geneva and Singapore

Two distinct luxury watch auctions are scheduled for November. In Geneva, Christie’s will host the Watches for ELA charity auction on November 9. This sale features 21 unique lots from various brands and independent watchmakers, including a Cartier Pasha once owned by footballer Zinédine Zidane. All proceeds from the Geneva auction will benefit ELA International, an organization supporting research and families affected by leukodystrophies.

In Singapore, the auction house Hotlotz will conduct an online sale from November 9 to 29 featuring 53 timepieces. These watches were seized in connection with a S$3 billion money laundering case in 2023. Notable lots include a Patek Philippe 18 karat white gold Nautilus Perpetual Calendar Automatic, a Van Cleef & Arpels Pont Des Amoureux Jour, and a Patek Philippe Platinum Perpetual Calendar Chronograph.
