Watches Highlights from 19th August’s Jewellery, Silver & Watches auction

Often, when people join us for our Jewellery, Silver & Watches sale, they will keep an eye out for a unique Rolex.

Rolex watches are known worldwide as the standard in luxury watchmaking, and we can't wait to show you the excellent timepieces that came up at our more recent sale. 

The Rolex Submariner is always a hit with bidders, and this item was no different. An exquisite Rolex Submariner Date stainless steel wristwatch with a black dial and luminous indices set in 18 carat white gold and a black ceramic rotating bezel was undoubtedly a head-turner.

Another Rolex to grace this sale was this 1990 ladies DateJust Rolesor automatic wristwatch. The gilt dial with baton indices and date aperture, with gilt crown and hands and 18 carat yellow gold fluted bezel and crown, in a stainless-steel Oyster case, looked magnificent.

Moving on from Rolex, this Bulgari Serpenti Spiga spiral watch attracted a lot of attention. The 18 carat rose gold bezel and crown with a lacquered polished dial and black ceramic Tubogas bracelet with 18 carat rose gold accents is a striking find.

A classic but very unique watch, the Ice Cube wristwatch from Chopard. The square dial and bezel of a cubed design stand out from the traditional watch shape.
