just watching this online, some big money going through.

including the buyers premium (25% + vat) and GMT black/blue went for £5250 which is toppy imho for an auction buy.

just watching this beauty go for a rather large sum

£180,000 in the room & premium (not 25% at that level but still quite a few PP's worth; £38,500 & vat)

In my experience Bonhams et al are the place to sell a quality watch, certainly not the place to buy one.

Few pieces seemed to go for a reasonable price but a lot more went for what appeared top dollar. Amazed at how quickly they rattle through the items.
