Evan Zimmermann and Antiquorum present this year’s Only Watch
Posted by admin in Uncategorized on November 18, 2011
Antiquorum, under the management of President and CEO Evan Zimmermann, presents Only Watch 2011, one of the biggest charity auctions in the world. The charity event is sponsored by His Serene Highness Prince Albert II of Monaco, and its culminating event will be held at the Hotel Hermitage in Monaco. Only Watch 2011 will benefit the Monaco Association for its research on Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy.
Only Watch 2011 is an important event among horologists because it will bring together the works of 40 of the greatest watchmakers in the world including Chanel, Harry Winston, Patek Philippe, Tag Heuer, and Vacheron Constantin.
Started on August 30 and ending on September 17, the Only Watch collection will be displayed in luxury watch capitals such as Shanghai, Tokyo, New York, and Milan. The culminating event will be organized by Evan Zimmermann and his team, together with the Monaco Yacht Show, and it will be held on September 23.
The Only Watch event is held every two years, and the one of a kind timepieces featured are especially made by world-class watchmakers, making the event generate an enormous profit. All of the proceeds will go to the Monaco Association for further research on Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy. Last September 2009, the charity event was able to donate 2.5 million Euros to fifteen scientific partners in five countries. This is a huge achievement in the search for treatments and other developments to fight Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy which affects 1 out of every 3,500 children around the world.
