The biennial Only Watch auction will see 52 one-of-kind timepieces go under the hammer. Here’s a look at some of the top models as well as existing watches that boast similar designs

The eighth edition of Only Watch auction, a highly anticipated sale that takes place every two years, has just unveiled unique pieces from participating watchmakers that are set to go under the hammer on November 9 in Geneva.

Hosted in collaboration with Christie’s, Only Watch invited 52 watchmakers to create one-of-a-kind timepieces for auction this year, with all proceeds from the sales going to scientific and medical research on neuromuscular diseases in general and on Duchenne muscular dystrophy in particular. The previous seven editions raised a total of 40 million Swiss francs (US$40,5 million), with 99 per cent of the money going directly towards research on neuromuscular diseases.

Ahead of the sale, we look at what some of the watchmakers have to offer and check out existing models from these brands that you can get your hands on now.
