40 Watches Belonging to Rolex Scholar Guido Mondani Are Heading to Auction
Auction season is upon us—and there are some pretty exceptional ones in store. For Phillips, things will get exciting in Geneva in just a few weeks with the Watch Auction: XIX featuring—among many stunning lots—selections from the Guido Mondani Collection.
Mondani is a longtime collector who took his passion for watches to the next level in 1992 when he established a publishing house dedicated to horological scholarship with a specific focus on vintage Rolex. Mondani last auctioned a portion of his personal collection back in 2006, which resulted in record-breaking sales, marking the two most expensive Rolex wristwatches ever sold at the time. We can’t wait to see what’s in store for the upcoming auction on May 11 and 12.
Alongside Mondani’s selection of 44 pieces, the Geneva Watch Auction: XIX will showcase more than 175 other extraordinary timepieces from powerhouse brands like Patek Philippe and Rolex to independents like F.P. Journe and Rexhep Rexhepi. Here, we highlight ten standout lots across the sale.
