Antiquorum auctioned off Albert Einstein’s 1930 Longines wristwatch last week. The house estimated the watch would fetch up to $35,000. They got $520,000. (With fees, the total came to $596,000.) That’s over 2000% higher than the estimated price, and a record for any Longines at auction.

The tonneau-shaped watch, made of 14K gold bears the inscription “Prof. Albert Einstein, Los Angeles, Feb. 16, 1931.” According to information from Antiquorum, the timepiece was manufactured by Longines in 1930, and presented to the famous scientist one year later. The white dial bears large gold-colored Arabic figures, a feature doubtless appreciated by Einstein, a sufferer of poor eyesight.

Classic timepieces are more than just something to pass on — they’re a smart investment. Edward Faber, owner of Aaron Faber Gallery in Manhattan, lays out the guidelines for DETAILS Magazine.

Ultra-luxury Swiss watchmaking house Audemars Piguet has launched two new stunning watch and necklace sets.

There are two sets of matching 18K white gold and diamond watches and necklaces for women, the Coup de Theatre and Carnet de Bal. Both watches use the AP calibre 2046 movement with manual winding (18 jewels) that beats at a frequency of 21 600 vph and provides 42 hours power reserve.

The “Carnet de Bal” series (above) was inspired by flower arrangements, creating a glittering floral spray of diamonds along the wrist and around the neck. The 18-carat white gold timepiece includes 481 gems of varying cuts totaling 59.53 carats. The matching necklace has 1,039 round, brilliant, marquise, pear, and baguette-cut diamonds.

“Coup de Theatre” is a more modern design with 853 brilliant cut diamonds for an astounding 123 carats in the watch. The gorgeous choker is dripping with 1,673 gems weighing in at 204 carats.

The cufflinks you see here were once the heart of mechanical masterpieces. Now they will add instant class and uniqueness to your shirt and your suit.

Priced at $985, the pair of Girard Perregaux (below) is perhaps the most beautiful cufflinks they have created though.

“Girard Perregaux is a fixture among the top luxury watch brands and has been for a very long time. Their finely crafted timepieces are not only examples of brilliant craftsmanship and beauty, but also as highly coveted collectables that only increase in value. The company dates back to the late 1700’s in Geneva and in 1867 made an indelible mark on the horological world: Constant Girard presented his Tourbillon with three gold Bridges after years of research into the functional use of gold in watch movements. This masterpiece was awarded the gold medal at the Universal exhibitions of Paris in 1867 and 1889, but declared ineligible in 1901 because it could not be equalled.” (Courtesy of The Watch Guy)

As many of these items are unique, hand-crafted pieces, all items come with a certificate of authenticity signed by the artist. Cost: $85-$985 @ Watch Cufflinks
