Kicking off 2022’s winter auction season, Monaco Legend Group’s (MLG) 22 and 23 October ‘Exclusive Timepieces’ sale takes place this weekend at Le Meridien Beach Plaza in Monte Carlo.

Gérald Genta’s personal Audemars Piguet Royal Oak has smashed the world record for the most expensive vintage AP watch to be sold at auction with a hammer price of $2,130,767 at today’s Sotheby’s sale in Geneva.

Five million pounds for a Patek Philippe Nautilus or half a million pounds for a Gérald Genta sketch of the Royal Oak are both part of a wider story about horology being treated like fine art.

Rumours suggest the artwork was bought by Audemars Piguet for its own museum.

First of four auctions offering one hundred original drawings by Gérald Genta opens at Sotheby's today.

How might Gérald Genta art might be valued in comparison to another 20th century genius, Pablo Picasso.

Simon De Burton, writer, historian and founder member of the Honorary Committee of the Gérald Genta Heritage Association, believes a sale this year of Gérald Genta original sketches — forever protected as unique NFTs — will be fought over like priceless works of art by collectors.

Sales include Mr Genta's original drawings of the Royal Oak for Audemars Piguet and The Nautilus for Patek Philippe.
