New York—Antiquorum's Important Collectors' Wristwatches, Pocket Watches and Clocks sale, to be held in New York City on Dec. 5, will consist of 402 fine timepieces, including a rare Patek Philippe collection.

Collectors will have the opportunity to bid on both modern and vintage watches, some of which will be sold at no reserve.

One of the highlights of the sale is a first series Patek Philippe Ref. 2497, produced in 1953. This men's 18-karat pink-gold astronomic, center-seconds watch also comes with a perpetual calendar and moon phases, and is estimated at $450,000 to $650,000.

Another noted item for sale is a Patek Philippe Ref. 5016 made in 1995. This astronomic, minute-repeating, white-gold men's watch has a one-minute tourbillon regulator, retrograde perpetual calendar and moon phases. It's estimated at $450,000 to $550,000.

The Patek Philippe Ref. 3448 "Without Moon Phases," estimated at $350,000 to $450,000, will also be on the auction block. This 18-karat white-gold self-winding watch comes with a perpetual calendar. Made in 1971, this watch is one of only six watches made by Patek Philippe featuring special prototype dials without moon phases.

All of the timepieces can be previewed at 595 Madison Ave. on Dec. 2 from 2 p.m.-7 p.m., on Dec. 3 from 10 a.m.-7 p.m., on Dec. 4 from 10 a.m.-4 p.m., and on Dec. 5 starting at 9 a.m., followed by the auction.
