On Monday July 18, Fellows Auctioneers will be holding one of the UK's largest auctions of Vintage and Modern Wrist Watches this year, comprising 600 items.
The auction takes place in Birmingham's famous Jewellery Quarter and pieces include Rolex, Omega, Cartier, Breitling, Audemars Piguet and Patek Philippe.
Whether you are a watch collector, or looking for that perfect timepiece, the sale promises something of interest with estimates ranging from £200 up to £50,000.
"This is one of the largest auctions of wrist watches in the UK this year and is certainly our largest ever wrist watch auction," said Stephen Whittaker, Managing Director at Fellows.
"We are really excited that we can bring an event of this size and quality to Birmingham, helping the Jewellery Quarter to gain global exposure as a part of the UK that is open for business."
