Only Watch 2015 is an auction that takes place every two years. As the name implies, it focuses strictly on watches but not just any watches. Each watch that goes up for auction is unique. And what makes each a one-of-a-kind piece? It can range from a simple change of colour or material for the case, dial or hands right up to completely unique designs that may never be seen again.
Over 40 watchmakers will offer a unique timepiece for the Only Watch 2015 auction. A number have already been announced and more will be revealed over the summer. Below is the list of watches you can look forward to bidding on at the auction. We’ll update this list as additional ones are announced.

This year’s auction is set to take place on November 7th and will once again raise funds for the Monaco Association Against Muscular Dystrophy. Unlike past years though, it will take place in Geneva, Switzerland.
A change of location is not the only change on the menu this year. This year’s auction will be conducted by a new auction house. Phillips recently launched a new watch department in partnership with watch auction consultants Bacs & Russo. Aurel Bacs is likely to be the event’s auctioneer.
All the watches listed here will go up for auction on November 7th, 2015. Prior to that, the watches will go on a world tour that will see them stop in Monaco, Hong Kong, Beijing, New York, London and Geneva.
