Appearing at auction for the first time, this Charles Frodsham/J.P. Morgan caliber tourbillon watch is marked by exceptional provenance: the watch was discovered upon J.P.

This example is fresh to the market from the family of the original owner through the Estate of Alexandra McCain Morgan. Mrs. McCain Morgan was the late wife of Rear Admiral Henry Sturgis Morgan Jr., and sister of the late Senator John McCain. To date, some 25 of these watches are known. They were commissioned by J.P.
