Philippe Dufour Simplicity 20th Anniversary No. 00/20

This pink-gold Simplicity is the special No. 00 anniversary piece, with a hinged case back and Dufour’s interlocked initials at 12 o’clock. Phillips sold it on 8 November 2020 for CHF 1,361,000, then a record for a Simplicity and for Philippe Dufour. The object is individually identifiable rather than merely an example of its model, which is important for Arcarel’s object-level record. The cited Phillips source supplies the key provenance, event or institutional facts used here. No unnamed buyer or owner has been inferred, and fields not established by the source are left blank. Its significance comes from the combination of the physical watch and the documented people, events, institutions or market history attached to this specific specimen.
