Elvis Presley’s Omega Fetches King’s Ransom at Antiquorum Auction
“Thank you, thank you very much!”That’s what the folks at Antiquorum Auctioneers might be saying today to the private collector who acquired the showcase piece at this week’s auction in New York, an Omega Constellation once owned by the King of Rock ‘n’ Roll, Elvis Presley. The watch sold for an astounding $52,500, five times its pre-sale estimate and a world record for that reference.Elvis’s Omega, a rare, black-dialed Constellation Calendar produced around 1960, was the most high-profile of 269 timepieces on the block at Antiquorum’s “Important Vintage and Modern Timepieces” auction, held at its Manhattan headquarters on June 12. The watch has an automatic chronometer movement with center seconds and date and a steel case with rose-gold plating. Antiquorum put the pre-sale estimate at $10,000 to $20,000, but bids for the coveted piece of rock ‘n’ roll memorabilia quickly escalated to a final hammer price of $52,5

Anyone having problems with their ROO? I am....
I picked up a Jarno Trulli towards the end of last week (sorry for not having posted any wrist shots or incoming thread, thought I would keep this one low key). I wore it very sparingly on Thursday and had let it sit over the entire weekend. Just yesterday morning as I picked it up to put on my wrist, I noticed the watch wasn't moving at all no matter how much I wind it. After having it on my wrist for the entire day it still wasn't moving at all, just dead, chrono too, completely dead.....I'm not sure what the general consensus regarding the durability or QC of ROO's are but I was sure really upset about this. Very indeed. K I'm done venting now. Haha cheers Any similar experience of yours you can share is greatly appreciated.
