In the beautifully presented catalogue, you’ll inevitably find brilliant examples of classic chronographs such as the Omega Speedmaster and the Rolex Daytona, in addition to a number of other intriguing – and lesser-seen – pieces.
While the tropical-dialled 1969 ‘Paul Newman’ Daytona is among the most collectable Rolexes in existence (and at 750,000-1.5m CHF, priced accordingly), there are watches to suit all budgets. We particularly like the PVD-coated Heuer Monaco (est. 25,000-50,000 CHF) and the colourful Tudor ‘Monte Carlo’ (15,000-30,000 CHF) – both timepieces that illustrate the scope of 1970s style. You can find the entire catalogue for Phillips’ Start Stop Reset sale listed in the Classic Driver Market.
