The tourbillon is possibly one of the most intriguing of watch complications and September’s ‘The Watch Sale’ at Fellows, is offering two contemporary examples from Jaeger-LeCoultre, both limited editions – one a classical design in platinum and the other a sports piece in association with Aston Martin.
The roll-call of famous makers continues for this sale with watches from Audemars Piguet, Breguet and Vacheron Constantin, along with the jeweller-watchmakers Cartier, Piaget, Boucheron and Van Cleef and Arpels.
More affordable, but no less interesting are vintage watches from Heuer, a Rolex Prince and an Iraqi Air-force Breitling Pilot’s watch plucked from the markets of Baghdad post ‘shock and awe’.
