請看Asian Business, March 1983
http://journeytoforever.org/keith_hor.html 裡面提到: "Now, of course, with the advent of the electronic watch, the centuries of development in mechanical watchmaking have drawn to a close. There is no more future for mechanical watches, excepting as antiques. This is a logical development, but yes, in a way it is a pity. Yet the story continues: the first electronic watches, made in 1947, are now valued collectors" items, and very rare, for they too are documents of human evolution. "We have noticed in the last 10 or 15 years that collectors are becoming very professional, extremely knowledgeable. There is now an excellent literature of 400-500 books on the subject, covering the lives of the master watchmakers and many aspects of their art, including such associated subjects as enamel painting. The interest is mainly historical, and this is a fascinating point of view from which to study history. From the point of view of art collection, this gives fine watches a meaning and a dynamic aspect, and an opportunity for involvement, that fine paintings simply do not have. "So many great men have collected watches in the past: Charlemagne, Napoleon -- many of the great figures, and most great men of science. "Today there are many collectors: there are 40,000 members of the antique watch association in the US; more than 10,000 in Europe; more than 3,000 in Britain, and a rapidly growing number in East Asia. In Hong Kong there are now many collectors: Li Ka-shing and Michael Sandberg, for instance, both have good collections. Many less well-known people, with much less money, are also collectors. "The market is constantly developing: there is no danger that all the best pieces will become locked up in museums or other stable collections, causing market stagnation. Many of our clients are investors as well as collectors, and this ensures that good pieces will always be available. "As for their investment value, I will give an example: in 1954, King Farouk's collection of 89 antique watches was sold in Cairo for a total of £110,000; I recently sold one of those watches, and not the best one in the collection, for more than £110,000. Of course this is not always the case, it is very difficult to find an accurate average. The best advice is to buy the best quality you can afford. The better the quality, the greater the likelihood that the value will increase significantly." Antiquorum's Hong Kong sale has become a major event in the watch collector's calendar. Patrizzi also holds annual auctions in Geneva and New York, but the best pieces are reserved for the Hong Kong auction, and buyers from all over the world attend. This year the 150 items he offered fetched a total of HK$6.5 million, some pieces being knocked down for twice the expected price. The German watch made in 1560 sold for HK$200,000; the magnificent Piquet & Meylan of 1815 sold for the expected sum of HK$400,000; the William Ilbery of 1803 sold for HK$580,000. Each watch was sold with a certificate of guaranteed authenticity which Antiquorum is unique in providing, possibly because Patrizzi is himself an authority and can supply authentication without greatly increasing his costs by seeking outside expertise. His own wristwatch is not an antique: he wears a solid, black-faced Rolex sportsman's watch covered with function dials. "I am a scuba diver, and this watch is very useful to me," he explained. "But I love my watch: it was given to me by an ex-president of Rolex, after I had provided expertise for the Rolex collection." 請看紅字的部分 , 將來應把王進龍加進去才對!
