Named for the venue of the 2022 Concours, it's a true one-of-one. The case is made from white gold, and paired with a black dial with sandstone-colored Arabic numerals and a railway-track minute scale, rhodium-color sundials, and rhodiumed case-matched gold hands for the hours and minutes. A sapphire-crystal caseback allows for views of the manually-wound Lange calibre L951.5 movement, covered during normal use buy a hand-engraved hinged cuvette. It will be auctioned by Phillips on November 6th with proceeds going to The Prince's Trust, a youth charity set up by HRH The Prince of Wales.
