Disclaimer: Please note that watches are sold "as is" and without any warranty, notably regarding their mechanical operation, accuracy, or movement longevity. Most watches have been opened by our specialists to examine the type, authenticity, and quality of the movement. Therefore, water resistance is no longer guaranteed. Furthermore, some watches are of such an age and condition that a service is necessary; buyers are therefore advised to consult a watchmaker at their own expense, if possible before the sale, to obtain an estimate and bid accordingly. All watches presented may have undergone prior servicing or restoration during their lifetime. Consequently, they may contain non-original parts such as hands, the crown, internal movement components, etc. The information in our possession regarding restoration, accidents, gem-setting, or general condition is provided for information purposes only; it represents the expression of an opinion at the date of cataloguing but does not constitute a warranty. It does not engage the liability of HDV Hôtel des Ventes SA nor that of its employees. Photographs and dimensions are given for guidance only. Since the public viewing allows buyers to examine all lots before the sale, no claims will be accepted once the hammer has fallen.

Chez Patek Philippe, le temps se transmet autant qu’il se mesure. Maison genevoise d’exception, elle incarne une horlogerie de tradition, de précision et d’héritage, où chaque montre semble pensée pour traverser les générations avec la même élégance discrète.
Le modèle présenté ici, inspirée de la pureté des premières Calatrava, se distingue par son boîtier rond, sa petite seconde à 6h et son esthétique réduite à l’essentiel. Une montre habillée, classique et intemporelle.
CITES
Les lots contenant des matériaux issus d’espèces ou de matières protégées ou réglementées (notamment ivoire, écaille de tortue, crocodile, alligator, corail, peaux ou bois exotiques) peuvent être soumis à des restrictions d’exportation, d’importation, de transport ou de douane au titre de la CITES ou d’autres réglementations applicables. Il appartient aux acheteurs de vérifier les exigences dans leur pays applicables avant d’enchérir. Piguet Hôtel des Ventes ne pourra assister les acheteurs dans l’obtention de permis ou documents requis, ni organiser l’expédition internationale de tels lots.
Pour certains lots comportant des éléments réglementés (notamment bracelets en crocodile/alligator ou éléments en ivoire, ou autres composants amovibles soumis à restriction), le retrait préalable à l’expédition pourra être proposé à la demande de l’acheteur. Ce retrait est définitif et irréversible ; l’acheteur renonce à tout droit de propriété, de restitution ou de réclamation sur l’élément retiré.
Dans le cas où l’acheteur se verrait dans l’impossibilité d’obtenir les autorisations nécessaires ou d’exporter, importer ou transporter légalement un lot, il ne pourra invoquer cette difficulté pour justifier ni l’annulation de la vente, ni un retard de paiement.
