A new year and a new season of our Podcast for the pleasure of your ears!

This time we are planning to share with you not only PRIMETIME stories but also interviews which you can see on our YouTube, and even special reports available only in audio format. We hope you will enjoy this horological journey with us in 2024.

And to begin....

Meet the extraordinary Daryn Schnipper – a powerhouse of brilliance, a horological connoisseur with a professional gaze, a diplomat par excellence, and a purveyor of wit. As the Senior Vice President and Chairman of the International Watch Division at Sotheby's, she effortlessly combines these qualities, shaping her unique style.

Embarking on her journalistic journey, fate took an unexpected turn, leading Daryn to a new life at  @sothebys . Starting with #clocks and venturing into #wristwatch auctions, she played a pivotal role in building Sotheby's watch division from the ground up.

Curious to learn more, we invited her to unravel captivating anecdotes from her early auctions, share insights on recent sales, and discuss the evolving landscape of #auctions over the past 40 years.

And for those who are keen on learning more about the #history and evolution of fine #watchmaking, we recommend checking the book "500 Years, 100 Watches" from  @PrestelPublishing. In this timeless edition Daryn Schnipper along with Alexander Barter, Deputy Worldwide Head at #Sotheby’s #Watch Division, highlight the most unusual, important, and beautifully crafted watches of the past half a millennium.
