Fancy a painting by Andy Warhol? A KAWS sculpture to go with your street style looks? How about the Patek Philippe Sky Moon Tourbillon? Now we’ve got your attention. This May, Phillips auctioneers has curated a stellar line up of 20th century and contemporary art as well as watches and jewellery for its 2019 Spring auction in Hong Kong.

Artists representing Southeast Asia include Singaporean painter Liu Kang, as well as Marina Cruz-Garcia, Maria Taniguchi, and Mai Trung Thú.
Vintage Jewellery
Jewellery collectors, keep your eyes peeled for some truly exquisite creations by Cartier, Graff and Harry Winston, as well as a wide assortment of fine jade pieces.
Important Watches
Watch aficionados will find this three-day event especially interesting. Phillips in association with Bacs & Russo is staging the first auction in Asia curated by an Asian collector. Phillips X Blackbird: SPORTS lists several vintage Rolexes and Patek Philippes for sale including a rare Ref. 1579 in pink gold with a salmon dial.
More Rolexes and Patek Philippes are on sale under the Phillips Hong Kong Auction: Eight.

Other brands to expect include Greubel Forsey, Audemars Piguet and A. Lange & Söhne.
These pieces and more are making their rounds across Asia. In Singapore they will be on exhibit this weekend 27 and 28 April at the Garden Pavilion of The Ritz-Carlton, Millenia Singapore. Opening hours are from 11am to 6pm.
