John Pye Luxury Assets @John_Pye
John Pye Luxury Assets is hosting a luxury watch auction featuring items such as the Patek Philippe Nautilus 5980/1R, Patek Philippe Nautilus 5711/1R, and Rolex Sky-Dweller 326933 on January 5, 2026.
Two high‑profile 2026 sales are turning heads among collectors of premium timepieces, each featuring coveted Rolex pieces. The first is a federal sale organized by the U.S. Marshals Service. Listed among a roster of elite brands—including Audemars Piguet, Breitling and Cartier—the auction will also present a selection of Rolex models. Market analysts note that the inclusion of Rolex in a government‑run offering underscores the brand’s status as a benchmark of value and desirability across both private and public sales channels.
The second event is a private luxury timepiece auction hosted by John Pye Luxury Assets. Highlighted in the catalog is a Rolex Sky‑Dweller reference 326933, positioned alongside other high‑end pieces such as the Patek Philippe Nautilus 5980/1R and 5711/1R. This curated offering reflects a growing trend of specialty auctions that focus exclusively on top‑tier horological creations, catering to a niche of affluent buyers seeking rare and iconic models.
Both auctions are slated for later in the year, with the Marshals Service sale concluding sometime in 2026 and the John Pye event scheduled for the same calendar year. Their overlapping timelines illustrate a broader market momentum: Rolex continues to dominate premium timepiece listings, while auction houses diversify their portfolios to include both government‑sourced lots and bespoke private collections. Collectors can expect robust competition, heightened visibility for Rolex models, and a clear signal that the brand remains a cornerstone of high‑value timepiece trading in the upcoming auction season.
