The Geneva auction has ended, but Vintage Rolex has risen again while the current model is out of breath. In particular, the strength of the hand-wound Daytona is overwhelming, and the PN also rises across the board. This time, ROLEX himself made a successful bid for three watches that marked record high prices. You're buying more and more Vinatge top pieces for the rumored museum establishment. The AP and Nautilus series are still in a slight downward trend overall (although they are still high), and the subs are also slightly sluggish. Anyway, Daytona is strong. 5004 / 5970 seemed to be stable at high prices.

First of all, from the three that Rolex won the bid.

JPS at Sotheby's is a JPS world record of 2,238,000 CHF (Japanese Yen 340 million). I think it was a result that can be said to be a symbol of the recent Daytona movement. However, if Rolex decides on this, it will give a drastic amount of money.

 

そしてレア中のレアのデイトナである 6270。Estimateを大きく上回る 3,690,000CHF（邦貨5億5736万円）。こちらもミュージアム行きが確定でしょうね。まあこのクラスのモデルは選んでいるとチャンスが無いので、出てきた時が勝負どころではありますが。

そして相場から最もかけ離れた高額だったのがこのミルガウス。なんと 2,238,000CHF（邦貨3億4,000万円）。史上最もパーフェクトな個体と言われていましたが、まさかミルガウスが3億円とは驚き。この個体は過去に日本でも販売されて個体とも言われています。

Let's take a look at some other notable lots.

Champagne PN has marked a milestone as a matter of course, at 762,000 CHF (115 million yen). It's not limited to PN, but as for ROLEX, solid gold models are steadily increasing. It was self-evident that this would happen, since the number of individuals is an order of magnitude less.

Steel's 5004A is also priced at 939,800 CHF (Japanese Yen 142 million). this5004AThis watch is one of the ultimate watches for watch lovers, and if you are asked what is the No. 1 watch you would like to own someday, this model may be a candidate. The beauty of the color of the dial and the elegance of the appearance are of course, but the surprise of this model is "lightness". Yes, the "unexpected lightness" that comes from the fact that the case, which is usually made of platinum or gold, is made of stainless steel is a shocking model. Isn't it a phenomenon unique to Patek that watches are more expensive than platinum just because they are made of stainless steel?

6263 Paul Newman is 428,400 CHF (Japanese Yen 65 million). Mark 2 panda with serial number 2.8 The dial condition is not perfect, and the pusher is at this price even in this state. After all, the impression is that the screw panda is strong. If the condition is better, I might have aimed for 600K.

 

common nameoman daytonaOne of them called "6263 Qaboos" was 831,600 CHF (Japanese Yen 125.6 million). The specification of this individual is one of only four that have been confirmed. Either way, it's a watch that you probably won't get a chance to see outside of an auction.
