This week's Hodinkee's What's Selling Where column brings a diverse array of timepieces, from the Inter Miami-themed Tudor Black Bay Pink to the rare Jaeger 4ATM chronograph, the Longines Ultra-Chron Jumbo, and a pair of vintage Tudor Rangers. Each piece offers a unique blend of history, craftsmanship, and personal connection, making them highly sought-after by collectors and enthusiasts alike.
Inter Miami-Themed Tudor Black Bay Pink
The Inter Miami-themed Tudor Black Bay Pink is a limited edition watch, one of 50 made for David Beckham and his Inter Miami team. It's a pre-39 Black Bay Chrono, measuring 41mm wide and 14.4mm thick, with a pink dial featuring the Inter Miami logo. Despite its limited production, it's not a rare find, but its connection to Beckham and the team makes it highly desirable. The watch is in excellent condition, with minimal wear, and comes with its original box and papers. The estimated price is $10,000-20,000, making it a significant investment for fans of Inter Miami and Tudor watches.
Jaeger 4ATM Chronograph
The Jaeger 4ATM chronograph, reference 13001, is a rare and sought-after piece. With only 100 examples made, it's a grail-level watch for many collectors. The 40mm stainless steel case is in fine shape, with visible bevels at the edges of the lugs. The panda dial and bidirectional rotating bezel add to its appeal. However, the watch has some mysteries, such as being signed only 'Jaeger' on the dial and the unsigned Valjoux 72 movement. The estimate for this watch is €4,000-6,000, making it a valuable addition to any collection.
Longines Ultra-Chron Jumbo
The Longines Ultra-Chron Jumbo, reference 7951-1, is a high-frequency watch introduced in 1967 to celebrate the brand's 100th anniversary. Running at 36,000 vph (5 Hz), it's a notable timepiece. This particular model, at 37mm, is considered a jumbo. The watch features a clean gray dial, an unpolished case, and nicely aged lume. While the bracelet may not be award-winning, the watch itself is a steal at an estimated price of £150-250.
Vintage Tudor Rangers
Two vintage Tudor Rangers, 9050/0s, are available for purchase. The first, from Bazamu, is in excellent condition with an unpolished case, aged lume, and an unworn C & I rivet bracelet. It was serviced in 2025, and the only issue is a crack in the lume on the seconds hand. Bazamu is asking $12,500 or best offer. The second Ranger, from Goldfinger's Vintage, also has an unpolished case but a non-oyster crystal and a period-correct Rolex bracelet. The price is $11,995.
Buyer Beware
Two Omega watches are warned against, as they have obvious flaws. The first, with no lume on the dial or hands and a marked 'Swiss T < 25' on the bottom, is a clear no-go. The second, a redial Omega Cosmic, is also not recommended due to its redial nature. These watches are included to demonstrate the author's attention to detail and to highlight the importance of thorough inspection before purchasing.
