Until today this Skipper Carrera would have set you back nearly £100k. Not anymore
One thing’s for sure: there’s never been a better time be a guy who’s into vintageWatch auctions have hit record numbers, vintage resale sites are going great guns and for certain brands, buying ‘pre-loved’ is now the only point of entry.Tag Heuer has never been in the top-tier of Most Expensive Watches Sold at Auction.
Various versions of the Skipper were made before it finally fell out of production, forty years ago. Then sometime around the mid-2000s, the original Skipperera became a hot watch – collectors started going nuts for it, stoked by its rarity. By one estimate only 200-300 were produced. When Christie's sold one at auction for almost £48,000 in 2018 its Lot Essay put that figure significantly lower – at just 20.
It's certainly not the first time the Carrera line has had a refresh. But the response to the 39mm anniversary models has been overwhelmingly positive – in large part down to a new way of executing the crystal so that it extends to edge of the case and curves around it, creating a larger surface area without upsizing the watch, while generally making it very pleasing to handle and comfortable to wear.
