Limited Edition Grönefeld 1941 Remontoire for Hodinkee and Patek Philippe 175th Anniversary Chronograph Watches Lead NY Elizabeth’s Upcoming Sale

The watchmaking experience of the Grönefeld family goes back to 1912, when Gerhard-Louis Grönefeld began his career as a watchmaker. His grandsons reestablished their family workshop in Oldenzaal, Netherlands in 1998 and began manufacturing branded watches a decade later. The upcoming NY Elizabeth sale will feature a Grönefeld 1941 Remontoire limited edition watch. It was designed for HODINKEE, the New York City-based editorial and e-commerce website for contemporary and vintage wristwatches. The design of the 1941 model was inspired by the original remontoire clock featuring a distinctive salmon dial. The sale also includes Patek Philippe watches comprising models such as a perpetual calendar, aquanaut, and complications world time Shanghai edition. Another important model is Patek Philippe’s anniversary chronograph. In 2014, the company introduced a collection of rare edition timepieces to commemorate its 175th anniversary. 

An F.P. Journe Elegante also leads the listings. The Swiss-French luxury watchmaker focuses on the production of complex precision chronometers. It manufactures around 800 watches every year. Two Rolex watches with striking dial colors are equally noteworthy. The company is the only watchmaker still based in central Geneva.
