#Bestof2019 Not quite a partridge in a pear tree, but this exceptionally rare gold, enamel and diamond-set hour striking musical double singing bird cage with timepiece featuring two exquisitely made singing birds would be the perfect gift for an admirer of horological excellence. 
This piece, made around 1815, is one of just three ever made and is the work of three famous Swiss brothers, the Frères Rochat. This extraordinary piece was one of the main highlights of Part II of the landmark Masterworks of Time collection, held in #Geneva on 11 November. On the night, it soared to over $1 gmillion. #sothebyswatches #sothebysgeneva #masterworksoftime #frèresrochat
