At Press Time Two to WatchAntiquorum Auctioneers has joined forces with Tourneau, the New York City retailer of more than 70 luxury watch brands, to introduce its watch and jewelry auctions to the U.S. After 24 years of selling exclusively from Geneva and Hong Kong, Antiquorum will hold its first U.S. auction May 11 at Tourneau's flagship store, The Time Machine, at 57th Street and Madison Avenue. The first auction will be Contemporary Limited Edition and Special Order Watches & Modern Collector's Watches, followed by the sale of Important Jewelry & Rare and Exotic Gemstones there May 12. "For the first time, both companies are now able to offer their customers expanded opportunities and expert advice on all levels of the market to buy, sell, trade in, consign and invest in their watch and jewelry collections," the companies say. They also plan to publish books and host 24-hour Internet auctions on Antiquorum Online (www.antiquorum.com). by Stacey King
