Phillips launches Fall 2026 online watch auction
Fresh from its record-breaking charity auction in London, Phillips in Association with Bacs & Russo has launched Phillips Watches Online: The New York Sessions, Fall 2026.
This marks the highest-value online watch auction ever organized by Phillips’ New York team, and runs now through October 9.
It features nearly 90 collectible lots spanning heritage houses and independent watchmakers, with some key highlights below:
Voutilainen 28Sport
Leading the auction with an estimate of $120,000–$240,000, this rare stainless steel piece is one of only eight produced and believed to be one of just two featuring an onyx center dial paired with a blue guilloché hour track.
Patek Philippe Ref. 5270J
Estimated at $80,000–$160,000, this complete collector’s set represents the brand’s first perpetual calendar chronograph with a fully in-house movement.
Rolex Cosmograph Daytona Ref. 116506
Estimated at $70,000–$140,000, the platinum anniversary ‘Platona’ features diamond-set indexes, a chestnut brown Cerachrom bezel, and the now-discontinued ice blue dial.
“This sale reflects the extraordinary momentum we’ve seen throughout the year across our global watch auctions,” said Paul Boutros, deputy chairman and head of watches, Americas, for Phillips.
“Following a spring season of record-setting results in Geneva, Hong Kong, and New York, collectors remain highly focused on the intersection of independent innovation, blue-chip watchmaking, and exemplary preservation.”
