The best part about attending the Monaco Legend Group auctions since last spring has been the community and sharing in their love of rare watches. The weather is nice and all but most of our time is spent indoors looking at watches – so why not focus on some of the great watches I saw? high quality replica watches The set-up in Monte Carlo remained largely the same as the past auctions I’ve attended there. There were two days of previews at the auction venue – Le Meriden Beach Plaza Hotel – offering plenty of time to go hands-on with the watches. Every attendee of the auctions gets to have the same free snacks and lunch buffet during the break in the auction action. Friends, clients, dealers, and guests also get together with friends for dinners after the previews or, this year, attend a single dinner to celebrate the close of the auction. Because Monaco Legend Group holds auctions on a different weekend than the other big houses, it makes it easier for everyone to come and give full attention to the auction weekend here, and in return, everyone – new buyers and old friends – feels like they get VIP treatment, even if it’s the same for everyone. high quality replica watches
This time, I decided to try something different. Most of the main characters of the auction scene remain the same – though there were a few surprise guests. Instead of doing portraits, I focused more on the watches. As always, I wondered after each day if I had photographed enough watches to make a complete photo report. Then, as I started putting this story together, I realized I could have published over 200 rare, fun, and interesting watches on the wrist in the room and still had plenty to spare. I also tried to “theme” sections of watches – chronographs, Cartier, world timers – so if you feel like one group of watches isn’t your thing, it’s easy to jump along to the next. But I’d say there are many hidden gems in this long photo report, so I hope you enjoy them. high quality replica watches
