Bar shows the full range of prices paid that year; the mark is the median. Median rather than average, so one exceptional lot does not distort the year. * Years marked with an asterisk have fewer than three recorded sales, too few to read as a market level.

These watches were offered but did not sell, because no bid reached the reserve. An unsold lot is still a data point: it marks where the market declined to go.

Showing 1–8 of 365 unsold lots. Prices as reported by the auction house, in the sale's original currency.
