“There is one kind of robber whom the law does not strike at, and who steals what is most precious to men: time.” - Napoleon
The one-of-a-kind hand-crafted wristwatch by independent Swiss watchmaker Golay-Spierer includes in its dial the original handwritten signature of the famous statesman and military commander, dating from a letter he wrote in March 1807.
The Napoleon watch is the first in a new series by the manufacture: “Heroïca Tempus”, a planned capsule collection of unique watches, each including in its design the signature of an important historic figure.
It is currently offered in a single-lot online sale, open for bidding until 15 October, with no reserve and an estimate of CHF 40,000 – 80,000.
