This week we are pleased to bring you an insightful article from our friends at Bonhams on diving watches and how they have been a driving force behind watch design and functionality.
Bonhams is a privately owned international auction house established over 200 years ago. They hold over 400 specialist sales annually in 60 different categories across the globe.
In this article, Bonhams' head of watches, Penelope Andrews, gives an overview on this thriving category: its origins, influences, and the stories behind the most desirable models, illustrated with highlights from the sale.
