Gildings follows with a watch‑focused sale early in the year, while Sheffield’s schedule includes a watch auction timed alongside its broader offerings.

Keys adds a Silver, Watches, and Collectables auction in mid‑January, and C&T earmarks a watch auction for later in the spring, emphasizing both contemporary and historic models.

Further afield, Drouot’s Christmas Watch Auction runs through the holiday season, while Drouot’s Asian Works of Art event also includes a watch segment. Antiquorum will stage two major watch auctions—first in Hong Kong, then in Monaco—offering a blend of modern and classic models. John Pye Luxury Assets announces a luxury watch auction featuring flagship pieces such as a Patek Philippe Nautilus and a Rolex Sky‑Dweller. Across the Atlantic, Chiswick Auctions schedules a watch auction for early 2026, and Cambi Casa d’Aste lists a watch sale on its platform.
