November 7th Auction

Utterlyprep · Nov 4, 2014

Hello all,

I came across an auction taking place, in France, on Thursday (07/11/2014) with the auction house Aguttes. In the catalogue are three rather lovely UG's, that look to be in nice condition and with reasonable estimates; they are one Aerocompax and two Tricompax models - you can see them on page 33 of the catalogue.

Take a look, and see what you think.

Very nice pieces throughout the catalog. The JLC's on p.34 as well as the Omega and Hamilton on p. 60 would be of particular interest to me.

Most of the wristwatches look original to my eye, with only the occasional redone dial.

Estimates look rather low, but I suspect that bidding will be strong on the better pieces.

The UG's look fine to me, but buying via a traditional auction without any movement pictures is always risky. Let's not forget the buyer's fees on winning bids.

Good luck if you choose to bid!

bunch of Jaeger-branded Universals as well, although nothing to write home about
