Mike Nouveau joins for a rapid-reaction auction episode live from Geneva. We recorded on Monday morning while sales were still ending, but talk themes across vintage, neovintage, and independents. We look more closely at a few Patek Philippe Calatrava 96s, 1463 chronographs, Urban Jürgensens, and more.
