Watches auction hero banner

Starting today, the market is buzzing with a flurry of watch auctions that close over the next week. The earliest deadline is a Certified Genuine Watch-Liquidation auction that ends on December 26, offering a range of high‑end pieces. That same day, a Boxing Day Automatic auction also wraps up, featuring a selection of designer watches alongside other items.

The following day, December 27, a second Boxing Day auction continues the momentum, presenting additional timepieces for bidders to consider.

December 28 sees a surge of activity. A dedicated watch auction hosted by a Canadian numismatic firm showcases a curated collection of timepieces, while a live “End of the Year” watch auction draws attention with its special starting bids. Sharpless Auctions adds a tech‑focused twist, highlighting smart watches alongside lifestyle goods. Helios Auctions and Dyonne Enchères also conclude on this date, each featuring a blend of classic and contemporary watches.

On December 29, two timed events that originally included broader categories now spotlight watches as a key segment. One auction, known for its 20th‑century focus, and a Christmas Collectables sale both end, offering collectors a final chance to acquire coveted models before the holidays.

The final pre‑new‑year deadline arrives on December 30. A live interior‑design sale, a Tolkien-themed book auction, and a private collection sale all close, each listing watches among their highlights. Meanwhile, an online auction dedicated to fine men’s watches also concludes, emphasizing the continued demand for both vintage and modern luxury pieces.

A single auction wraps up on December 31, marking the close of the year with a final opportunity for bidders.

Looking ahead into 2026, the calendar is packed with specialty watch events. Notable among them are McTear’s Rare & Vintage Watch sale, a Swatch‑focused auction by Charterhouse, and a two‑day Silver, Jewellery & Watches auction by a north‑east house. Additional offerings include vintage watch collections, luxury timepieces, and mixed‑category sales that still feature watches prominently. The trend points to a growing appetite for both heritage models and cutting‑edge smart watches, with online platforms expanding access and live events maintaining the excitement of in‑person bidding.
