[/size][/font][/size][/p][p=24, null, left][size=16px][font=Tahoma][size=2]The exceedingly rare Rolex Reference 6263 “Oyster Albino” Cosmograph Daytona that once belonged to guitar icon Eric Clapton, which I describe in detail here[/url], went up for auction yesterday in Geneva. And it smashed every record for any Rolex watch ever sold at auction, setting a new world record by hammering for the price of more than $1.4 million (including buyer’s premium).[/size][/font][/size][/p]
[p=24, null, left][size=16px][font=Tahoma][size=2]This particular Reference 6263 is one of only four known examples categorized as an Albino. If you know anything about vintage Rolex, then you probably also know that the most sought-after examples – the ones that make collector hearts beat as fast as they can go – are those that have something unusual about them, something that not every Rolex can boast, something that makes them rarer than four-leaf clovers picked by a leprechaun at the end of a rainbow (see another ultra-rare Rolex variant with an interesting nickname here[/url]). In this case, it is the silvered dial with the same-color silvered chronograph totalizer subdials (hence the nickname “Albino”). This reference usually sports black chronograph totalizers with white printing.[/size][/font][/size][/p]
[p=25, null, left][size=16px][font=Tahoma][size=2]This “Albino” Reference 6263 was manufactured in 1971 and is powered by manually wound Caliber 727 (which – in case you are a watch nerd like me and need to know this – is based on Valjoux Caliber 72). It is housed in a stainless steel case and comes on a stainless steel bracelet.[/size][/font][/size][/p]
[p=25, null, left][size=16px][font=Tahoma][size=2]Clapton bought this watch in the late 1990s. It was auctioned at Sotheby’s New York sale of June 5, 2003, where it broke the previous world record for a Rolex Cosmograph Daytona by selling for $505,000 (five times its pre-auction estimate). Its pre-auction estimate for this auction was 500,000 to 1,000,000 Swiss francs.[/size][/font][/size][/p]
[p=25, null, left][size=16px][font=Tahoma][size=2]But perhaps even bigger news was what turned out to be the top lot at the same auction: a 1927 Patek Philippe monopusher “doctor’s” chronograph in stainless steel sporting an off-white silvered dial with superb patina. At the auction yesterday, May 10, 2015, after just 21 minutes, it sold to an anonymous bidder on the telephone for $4,987,383 (including buyer’s premium), more than doubling its low estimate and setting a new record price for any stainless steel wristwatch ever sold at auction. This is one of only two examples of this model, both of which were made for a retailer in South America; the other is located in the Patek Philippe Museum in Geneva. To see original photos of these two and other watches sold at this auction, please read [url=http://quillandpad.com/2015/05/05/phillips-inaugural-one-auction-preview-featuring-rolex-patek-philippe-blancpain-longines-and-more/]Phillip’s Inaugural One Auction Preview Featuring Rolex, Patek Philippe, Blancpain, Longines And More[/url].[/size][/font][/size][/p]
[p=25, null, left][size=16px][font=Tahoma][size=2]Patek Philippe and Rolex split the top lots between them: six of the ten most expensive watches sold at the Phillips Geneva Watch Auction: One were manufactured by Patek Philippe, while the other four were made by Rolex.[/size][/font][/size][/p]
[p=25, null, left][size=16px][font=Tahoma][size=2]These watches were part of the inaugural watch auction of [url=http://www.phillips.com/departments/department?DepartmentName=Watches]Phillips watch department[/url], a relative newcomer to the world of highly collectible timepieces, which works in partnership with the highly experienced Bacs & Russo team. Aurel Bacs and Livia Russo were most recently instrumental elements of Christie’s practical domination of the watch auction world. In fact, during their time at Christie’s watch department, it experienced growth from $8 million to $130 million.[/size][/font][/size][/p]

[/size][/p][align=center][font=微軟雅黑][size=3]百達翡麗小鋼表和埃里克·克萊普頓的勞力士迪通拿6263Oyster Albino刷新了世界拍賣記錄[/size][/font][/align][p=25, null, left][font=微軟雅黑][size=3]曾經屬于吉他大師埃里克克萊普頓的一只極其罕見的勞力士6263“Oyster Albino”宇宙計時迪通拿，昨天出現在了日內瓦拍賣會上。同時它的成交價刷新了勞力士腕表以往所有在拍賣會上的記錄，隨著拍賣槌的落下，超過140萬美金（含買家的傭金）的成交價創造了新的世界紀錄。[/size][/font][/p][align=left][font=微軟雅黑][size=3]這只非常特別的6263是作為Albino僅有的4個代表中的一只。如果你稍微了解些勞力士古董表，你或許也知道最讓收藏者們心跳加速的是那些與眾不同的表，是那些不是每個人都可以拿出來炫耀的表，是那些比小妖精從彩虹盡頭采摘的四葉草還稀有的表（詳情請見另一只極其罕見同樣有著有趣昵稱的勞力士變異品種）。這只6263有著銀色的表盤，配以同樣為銀色的計時小表盤，昵稱“Albino”由此而來。這只表通常是黑色的運動計時表圈搭配白色的刻度指示。[/size][/font][/align][align=left][font=微軟雅黑][size=3]這只“Albino”6263生產于1971年，由手動上鏈機芯727驅動（以防你和我一樣是個腕表小白，科普下，這枚機芯是基于Valjoux72打造的。）它被裝配于不銹鋼表殼，搭配不銹鋼表鏈。[/size][/font][/align][align=left][font=微軟雅黑][size=3]在20世紀90年代，克萊普頓購得了這只表。2003年6月5日，它在紐約蘇富比進行了拍賣。在那次拍賣中，它打破了先前勞力士宇宙計時迪通拿505，000美金的拍賣世界記錄（五倍于拍賣前的預估）。對于這個拍賣前的預估是500,000到1,000,000瑞士法郎。[/size][/font][/align][align=left][font=微軟雅黑][size=3]但在相同的競拍中，更勁爆的消息是一只1927年的單按鈕35mm百達翡麗Ref.130不銹鋼銀白色表盤配以超靚銅銹點綴的“doctor’s”計時腕表（醫生脈搏表，只有一個與表冠融為一體的按鈕能，同時操作計時和調時功能，無背透，只有開蓋才能看到機芯）。在昨天2015年5月10日的拍賣中，僅僅21分鐘之后，它就被一位匿名競拍者通過電話以4,987,383美金（包含買家的傭金）的價格買下，二倍之多于它的最低評估，同時創造了不銹鋼腕表在拍賣中的新記錄。它是這個型號僅有的兩只中的其中一只，當時都是為了南美的零售商而制作的；目前另一只被保存在日內瓦的百達翡麗博物館。如果想看一下這兩只表的原始照片和其他在此次拍賣中成交的腕表，請點擊 [url=http://quillandpad.com/2015/05/05/phillips-inaugural-one-auction-preview-featuring-rolex-patek-philippe-blancpain-longines-and-more/]Phillip’s Inaugural OneAuction Preview Featuring Rolex, Patek Philippe, Blancpain, Longines And More.[/size][/font][/align][align=left][font=微軟雅黑][size=3]百達翡麗和勞力士分食了拍賣行的戰果：在PhillipsGeneva Watch Auction中成交的10大最昂貴腕表中的6只：一部分是百達翡麗，另外四只是勞力士。[/size][/font][/align][align=left][font=微軟雅黑][size=3]這些表只是[url=http://www.phillips.com/departments/department?DepartmentName=Watches]Phillips watch department最早拍賣品的一部分，相對一名新進入高級手表收藏界的人來說，會選擇跟具備豐富經驗的Bacs & Russo團隊合作。 Aurel Bacs和Livia Russo是Christie’s在世界手表拍賣中具有統治地位最基礎和決定性的因素。事實上，他們在Christie’s手表部門就職期間，經歷了從800萬美金到13億美金的飛躍。（這場拍賣是Aurel Bacs離開著名拍賣行佳士得后、自己創建PHILliPS鐘表分部后的第一場首秀）[/size][/font][/align][align=left][font=微軟雅黑][size=3]--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------[/size][/font][/align][align=left]
[/align][align=left][size=5]Eric Patrick Clapton，20世界最偉大的吉他大師，酷愛收藏古董勞力士和百達翡麗。對于一位標志性的吉他手，我覺得當他帶著勞力士，彈著電吉他，真是相得益彰，場面相當唯美啊。[/size][/align][align=left][size=5]其實他的人生真的是蠻復雜的，充滿了各種經歷，各種成就，各種非議，各種榮譽，以及他的婚姻狀況，身世之謎（從而寫下了My Father's Eyes），小兒子發生的悲?。◤亩鴮懴铝薚ears in Heaven）。[/size][/align][align=left][size=5]真的不知道怎么去總結他的人生，我也沒有那個能力去總結他的一生，所以大家要是想了解更多，還是自己慢慢去感悟吧。[/size][/align][align=left][size=5]
