The leading Swiss auction house’ main man in full bloom: Evan Zimmermann
Evan Zimmermann is the president and CEO of Antiquorum. It is a Swiss auction house that specializes in selling valuable timepieces. Also, he is an enthusiast when it comes to rare and valuable wristwatches. His first collection is a Rolex Submariner that cost him $1,500. It is a rare because the word Submariner was written in red. Rolex later used the color white making it a hard to find piece. He came up with a detailed and efficient way of bidding. Bidders are first advised to browse through a printed catalog or online to be familiar about the item on sale. The company holds a free preview before the sale date so that buyers could examine the items and seek an advice from an expert. Next step is the registration. Bidders are asked to present documents including a government issued ID. Registered bidders get a bid paddle at the auction day. They are also advised to bring a catalog for a reference. Results are posted online after the auction. An invoice is sent to the winner of the item. It is delivered though mail. Bidders are given seven days to make the payment after the sale date. Shipment of the item takes 7 working days. Antiquorum also offers written, online and telephone bidding which makes its auction available to all over the world.
Wine and liquors gets better with time, same goes to timepieces according to Evan Zimmermann. He worked for an investment advisory firm before joining Antiquorum, the number one auction house for rare watches. His passion for valuable and exquisite watches have been very helpful and made a big contribution for the success of Antiquorum. There are many things that need to be considered for an item to become a collector’s piece. One is its uniqueness. He confirmed that people are willing to spend money for a rare timepiece. With rarity, authenticity follows.
Under Zimmermann’s management, Antiquorum’s sales sky rocketed from $22 million to $100 million over a short period of 2 years. With his leadership, the company is continuously making great achievements. To financially support his personal interest for collecting watches, he made a list of watches that he already have and willing to part with. He is willing to trade in when a better watch is on sale.
