Santa Fe Art Auction Offers Iconic Timepieces, Fountain Pens, & Other Luxury Accessories

Legendary watch designer Gérald Genta presented his design for the Royal Oak to Audemars Piguet in 1970, eventually executing the design two years later. To commemorate the 20th anniversary of the Royal Oak in 1992, Audemars Piguet made a limited edition of 1,000 pieces. The upcoming Santa Fe Art Auction event offers one of these Royal Oak special edition watches. The available timepiece is accompanied by an AP Royal Oak green box and a certificate of origin. The auction also highlights a 1976 Rolex GMT-Master red and blue “Pepsi” watch.

A Corum limited edition Golden Bridge platinum skeletonized wristwatch will be on offer as well. The Golden Bridge model, which features a 45-component movement, was designed in the 1970s by Vincent Calabrese. Corum patented Calabrese’s design and unveiled the Golden Bridge on their 25th anniversary at the 1980 Baselworld fair. The auction also offers a selection of fountain pens from Cartier, Montblanc, and Krone. Interested collectors can explore the full listings and register to bid online on Bidsquare.
