The watch world is gearing up for the biggest auction of the year. Time For Art 2024, at Phillips New York, in association with Bacs & Russo, the auction house's watch department, will take place on 7 and 8 December, with all proceeds supporting artists and artistic endeavours.
Time For Art is a charity that supports the Swiss Institute in fostering creativity and innovation in the contemporary art world. Twenty-five watch brands have created unique pieces for the auction (the second such event, following the 2022 debut). Says Aurel Bacs of Bacs & Russo: 'Time For Art exemplifies how contemporary art and fine watchmaking can create something extraordinary. We are thrilled to bring these exceptional creations to auction while contributing to the ongoing support of the arts.'
