Great to see the proceeds going to the Foundation. Amazing sale, amazing watch. Bravo Aurel Bacs!

Just love hearing Aurel Bacs talks about watches.

Some people bring stuff to life no matter how boring the subject. I give you Aurel Bacs.

Totally agree with Aurel, icons are forever, and I really love things like Rolex, or Fiat 500 (in almost every variations on the original theme...!!).

what's the opening classical piece?

That guy knows his watches!

This guy is great to listen to.

This guy can make my cheap Casio watch sound amazing.

Would love to get a hold of that catalogue though......

2:46 - You can actually see the gears in his head move, as he tries to get out from underneath the question lol.

Damn.. his eyes are so focused and intense.

"thank you for having me" :D

Prescient: “This is the eve of an entire generation of watch collectors.”

I would really like to hear him speaking about Casio watches 😎 .

watched him race Nissans at Lime Rock Park..

I'd actually love to know what kind of watch Aurel Bacs wears everyday.

I didn’t know Clark Kent was covering watches as well!

Just a watch. People,s craziness makes the insane price.

Ultra handmade ... ^^

"...An icon even without Paul Newman...". I beg to differ sir. I'm of the opinion the Daytona ans especially the 6239 became what is today all thanks to Paul Newman.

Now, how do you drive a watch around a track?? LOL I rather have 10 Ferraris instead of a $15,000,000 watch

Some people are addicted to porn, others to watches.

WHO IS PAUL NEWMAN ?? HEY WAITE IS THAT SUPERMAN ??

He sold the watch for 15 millions. Maybe he bought it only for under a million.

@jayceh

It's an auction, so they take a percentage of the sale price, not buy then sell. Paul Newman's wife bought the watch for around $1,000 USD.

Beg to differ. Daytona is not an icon. Not yesterday, not today. Give me a Heuer 2446c Autavia, a Speedmaster 105.003, a Patek 1463 over any Daytona any day. Give me the Lemania movements used by Omega, Patek, Vacheron, Breguet for over 50 years. Rolex does not come anywhere remotely close. A Daytona is simply a statement : my wallet is bigger than yours. It takes more to make an icon, Mr. Bacs. But full credit to Aurel Bacs to generate an extraordinary sale.
