Another Report - Bonhams Skipperera HK 2018

As many of you read the post I did on the Skipperera from Christie's and the discrepancy in the photos.....now I share with you the upcoming Bonhams auction in Hong Kong later this month....

I won't make it a long boring story as last time, but will only show you some pics, and let you be the judge....

All photos are provided from Bonhams, so I have not done any editing or taken any of these photos myself. Also, just to be transparent, I will still be bidding on this watch, but similar to the Christie's watch, my "reserve" now will be much less than what I originally was thinking since the pics show......

PHOTO 1: The picture on the left is the photo from the catalog and the one from the right is an actual photo of the watch up for auction.
