During the last decade, the watch world has seen an auction boom the likes of which no one could have predicted. Both mechanically and historically significant timepieces have seen hammer prices reach ludicrous heights — at the top the list, a 2019 Patek Phillippe sold for over $31 million and a Paul Newman Rolex Dayton for just under $18 million — and arguably no single model tells this story better than Steve McQueen’s
Le Mans watch.
The square-cased timepiece in question is a Heuer Monaco — designed in the late ‘60s back before the brand became TAG Heuer — six of which were known to have been used during filming of the 1971 racing classic. Watch blog Hodinkee notes that back in 2009 one of the six sold at auction for about $80,000, then another sold three years later for about ten times that amount. Then on Saturday, the last of the six to come up for public sale reached a record-breaking price of $2,208,000, or 27 times the one sold in ‘09.
