Posted: Thu Oct 23, 2008 6:52 pm Question 244
I'm not good with pictures, but I bet I can create nice tricky questions. Question 244. What was the article (=Lot) that got the highest bid at the Swatch Wristory Auction and maybe you even know the amount that was paid? |
|
Posted: Thu Oct 23, 2008 7:34 pm easy for someone who was there !
lot 8 BLOW YOUR TIME AWAY set of 6 different Puffs US $ 105.000 sold (I believe) to a Japanese bidder on the telephone |

Posted: Thu Oct 23, 2008 8:15 pm Question 245
Ok, I will post another picture. Don't know if this is a hard one for you. The question is: Check out this small fragment, who made this, in what year and what is the connection with Swatch? You need to get all three correct answers!  |

Posted: Fri Oct 24, 2008 12:13 am It's a detail from "World Breakdance Championship" poster designed by Keith Haring in 1984.
Swatch was one of the sponsors for the event. A pair specials for that event ("GO001" & "LO001") were designed based on the Haring poster, but the watches aren't technically designed by Keith Haring. Haring would later collaborate with Swatch for "Modele Avec Personnages (GZ100)", "Serpent (GZ102)", "Milles Pattes (GZ103)" & "Blanc Sur Noir (GZ104)".  |
