Hi Huneybees,
You have got to be at The Regent Hotel this weekend! One of the world’s greatest Swatch collections is on exhibition in Singapore as Sotheby's unveils Swatch & Art from the Dunkel collection!
The European collector Paul Dunkel collected more than 5,800 items including rare Swatch prototypes, limited editions and special Swatch watches from our first 25 years (1983 – 2007), as well as artwork relating to Swatch designs.
Entitled “Swatch & Art from the Dunkel Collection”, an auction will be held at Sotheby’s Hong Kong on April 7, 2015. Prior to the auction, a travelling exhibition presents highlights from the collection. It will be in Singapore on 14th and 15th March at The Regent hotel from 11am to 6.30pm. Entry is free of charge.
One of the highlights of the superlot includes the Kiki Picasso Set, limited to just 140 pieces is considered one of the most sought-after special editions Swatches. A Kiki Picasso wristwatch was auctioned in London for US$28,000 in 1992.
The collection also includes rare Swatch Art Specials by Keith Haring, Alfred Hofkunst and Jeremy Scott as well as the James Bond Leather Briefcase and the Bond “Villians Collection”, to mention only a few of the items in this exceptional collection.
The exhibition continues April 2-6 at the Hong Kong Convention and Exhibition Centre, where the auction itself takes place April 7, 2015.
Have fun at the exhibition! I can't wait to see the collection!
