Objects of Time. Curated Boldly
A beautiful and elegant Patek Philippe Calatrava ref. 2501 "Disco Volante" from the 1950s, showcasing everything collectors appreciate about mid-century Patek Philippe design. Housed in a classic 34mm yellow gold case, the watch wears larger than its dimensions suggest thanks to its wide, flowing bezel and hidden lugs.
Specifications & Condition:
The 34mm yellow gold Disco Volante case remains unpolished, showing only minor wear. The silver dial is clean and well-preserved. The watch is fitted with a generic black leather strap. The Cal. 10-200 movement is in excellent condition and running strongly on the timegrapher. The previous service history is unknown. A 48-hour inspection period is provided, and returns are accepted during that time.
Editor’s Selection:
An iconic Tudor Submariner from 1981, known to collectors and enthusiasts as the Snowflake due to its distinctive hands and hour markers. Snowflakes have gained a strong following over the years, partly because some were issued to the French Navy (Marine Nationale) and the U.S. Navy, proving their ruggedness and readiness for action. It’s a solidly built Submariner, just with a cooler and more distinctive layout.
This example is in great condition, showing a light cream tone on the hands and hour markers. The lightly faded insert gives it a killer look. Now available!
Specifications & Condition:
The 40mm stainless steel case is in great condition, showing previous polishing but retaining sharp lugs and a thick profile. It is paired with a Phoenix NATO strap. The black dial is in great condition, with a clean matte surface free of visible imperfections. The lume has aged evenly to a light cream tone, and the hands are in great condition. This watch is running accurately, though the service history is unknown.
Notes:
I was just talking with my brother about how a Snowflake always seems to grab your attention more than a classic Rolex Submariner. There’s something a little more daring about the Tudor—more rugged, with a bit more character, at least in my eyes.
A stunning vintage Jaeger-LeCoultre — complete and untouched. Crafted entirely in solid 18K yellow gold, it beautifully blends the worlds of fine watchmaking and high jewelry. On the wrist, it’s instant magic. The integrated woven bracelet contrasts perfectly with the black onyx dial, while the craftsmanship throughout is exceptional. The diamond-set corners add just the right amount of flash. This example comes complete with its original box, guarantee, and hangtag.
Specifications & Condition:
The solid 18K yellow gold case and integrated woven bracelet remain untouched and unpolished. The glossy black onyx dial is perfect, showing no cracks or damage. Service history is unknown, but the watch is running accurately. A 48-hour inspection period is provided.
Notes:
A time capsule like this is most likely unique. The combination of a stone dial and an integrated gold bracelet makes for an exceptionally attractive and distinctive timepiece.
