Mr Stallone is filming Season 2 of "Tulsa King." Action hero Sylvester Stallone is parting ways with some prized possessions! Up for auction at Sotheby's starting June 5th is a portion of his incredible watch collection, valued at a staggering $7.5 million, the New York Post reported.
The star attraction? Stallone's Patek Philippe Grandmaster Chime is a legendary timepiece considered the ultimate treasure ("holy grail") by watch enthusiasts. This engineering marvel is estimated to bring in a whopping $2.5 to $5 million.
Sotheby's watch expert Geoff Hess described it as "one of the most complex wristwatches ever made," according to NewsNation's Paula Froelich . This rare beauty boasts a sleek white gold design with a remarkable 20 complications (fancy watch features) and an extra special touch: a handwritten note signed by Stallone himself! "I enjoy the collecting process like so many others in this passionate community, who don't just see watches as an accessory, but admire them for their history, craftsmanship, artistry - but most importantly - how they make them feel," Stallone said in a statement. "Looking at these watches, I feel truly lucky to have owned them; they serve as a reminder that hard work pays off .
.. While parting ways with this collection is bittersweet, I cherish that I've owned them with pride, and hope they will be appreciated and admired in their next homes.
" Sylvester Stallone's forthcoming auction at Sotheby's on June 5th extends beyond the coveted Pat.
