Greubel Forsey

In 2011, Greubel Forsey released the GMT collection, an outstanding demonstration of their innovative craft - a beautiful synergy of a 25° inclined tourbillon and the GMT complication. The watch featured an elusive rose gold dial and adopted their signature semi-skeletonised design to showcase the mesmerising tourbillon. Most striking however, is the spectacular three-dimensional globe viewable from both the front and side aperture - a creation that, befitting the watches roots in overcoming gravity, simulates the earth’s rotation. The reverse of the timepiece is equally as interesting, featuring a world time display with over 24 cities.

Extravagant and unique, it is easy to be lost in the watch’s ensemble of motion, but the fine, stationary details are also not to be ignored. For embodied in every crevice and corner of this watch is Greubel Forsey’s unmatched attention. This particular watch, encased in platinum with a pink gold dial, is a limited edition of 22, one that rarely resurfaces in market. As such, this lot marks an exceptionally remarkable opportunity to acquire this elusive masterpiece.

Sotheby's is proud to collaborate with Greubel Forsey, offering the new owner a comprehensive and complimentary service for the watch through a local authorized Greubel Forsey retailer, to be availed within six months following the auction. This service encompasses updating the owner's book and renewing the two-year owner's warranty. Any additional accessories (such as fitted box, loupe, gloves, etc) are not included.
