Significant Lots: Flipping Watches and NY Auction Preview

The podcast is back!

After a brief holiday break, Significant Lots is back! In our third episode, Eric Wind and Gabriel Benador discuss flipping watches and anti-flipping policies, why titanium is the modern watch metal, and the most Significant Lots coming up at New York Auction Week, including perhaps the best pink-on-pink Patek 1518 perpetual calendar chronograph we’ve ever seen.

Find Episode 3 on Spotify, on Apple Podcasts, on Google Podcasts, or wherever else you listen to podcasts.

If you’re enjoying Significant Lots, please share it with a friend or leave us a review in Apple Podcasts. All of us have received a ton of positive feedback and support in response to the first few episodes of the podcast, so thank you to all who have listened so far! We’re all excited to hop on mic every week and think that Significant Lots provides some much-needed collector perspective in the watch world.
