Embodying the essence of Prohibition-era glamour, Al Capone’s Patek Philippe pocket watch is a testament to the infamous gangster’s flair for style. This stunning 42mm platinum timepiece boasts an open-face design, showcasing a beautifully aged dial with Breguet numerals and a distinctive “long signature.” Although the minute hand is missing, the watch’s true showstopper is its reverse side, where 90 single-cut diamonds form an Art Deco “AC” monogram. Complete with provenance papers signed by Barbara Mae Capone, this rare watch will be auctioned off at Sotheby’s Important Watches sale in New York on June 10th.
