I haven't done an in-depth comparison, but would point out that the Bonhams Skipperrera (shown in the first photo below) has an orange chronograph second hand, while the Christie's Skipperrera (in the second photo) has a white chronograph second hand, as described in the Condition Report.

Odd to imagine that Christie's used a photo of a different Skipper, especially in view of their admission that this was a mistake in post production.
