Rare and Striking Timepieces by Rolex and Patek Philippe Highlight Gallery 63’s Upcoming Auction

Sapphire gemstones have been historically coveted for their rarity and royalty in different cultures around the world. The ancient Persians attributed the blue color of the sky to what they believed was a gigantic sapphire. During the early 10th century in France, producing azure color was very exclusive and costly. Hence, under the reign of the Capetian dynasty, it became a symbol of aristocracy and was associated with kings, queens, and nobles. The upcoming Gallery 63 sale will feature a sapphire and D color diamond bracelet set in platinum. The three-row piece is stamped ‘Tiffany’ on the reverse. Diamonds make for an eye-catching combination with the blue gemstone as the two complement and contrast each other.

An 18-karat rose gold Patek Philippe Nautilus 5711 watch also leads the catalog. With automatic exhibition and glass back, the piece is accompanied by a wooden box. Another noteworthy watch is an 18-karat Datejust Pearlmaster from Rolex. It’s an all-factory original timepiece featuring Roman diamond paved dial, striking rainbow baguette bezel, and an original diamond band.
