Sir Michael Caine's Rolex. An 18K gold quartz calendar bracelet watchModel: Oysterquartz Day-DateReference: 19018/19000Date: Circa 1979Movement: 11-jewel Cal.5055 quartz, adjusted to temperature, No.0018239Dial: Sunburst champagne, applied gilt baton hour markers, black outer minute track with Roman numeral and luminous dot five minute markers, magnified date aperture at 3, day at 12, gilt tapering faceted baton hands with luminous inserts, centre secondsCase: Brushed and polished tonneau form, screw down back and crown, fluted bezel, No.5874610Strap/Bracelet: Brushed and polished 18K gold linkBuckle/Clasp: Signed folding clasp stamped VCA 7H164-2Signed: Case, dial & movementSize: 36mmFootnotes:With a watch almost always prominently upon his wrist, Sir Michael Caine has become quite the watch style icon. It is no surprise therefore that within Sir Michael's collection there have been several Rolex with each of them contributing to some of the most iconic images put forward of this phenomenal actor. As his career ascended with successes such as the hit movies Get Carter (1971) and Sleuth (1972), Sir Michael can frequently be pictured wearing one of his gold Rolex. The current lot represents his third notable foray into the world of Rolex with his purchase of an 18K gold Oysterquartz Datejust. Ever the trailblazer rather than crowd follower, Sir Michael was an early convert to the Oysterquartz acquiring his model not long after they first launched in the late 1970s. Sir Michael has confirmed that he wore this watch during numerous roles but, perhaps, most famously as Lawrence Jamieson in the 1988 movie Dirty Rotten Scoundrels. The gold bracelet can be seen nestled within Sir Michaels crisp white suit as he toasts with Steve Martin upon the promotional posters for the film. As with all of his watches, Sir Michael did not distinguish what was exclusive for the movie set versus his private life. Captured in 1982 is a fantastic image by the celebrated American photographer Steve Schapiro (via Getty Images â’¸) where Sir Michael can be seen sat at his home in LA. With cigar in one hand, wine in the other, iconic glasses on - there is no other way to describe this portrait of Sir Michael than cool. Visible upon his wrist and balancing the gold hues given off by his glass of wine is his Rolex Oysterquartz, distinct from other Rolex Day-Dates by the crisp faceted edges that make this design so recognisable.For further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com

WHITE (JOHN CLAUDE)Tibet and Lhasa. Photographs by J.C. White, Esq., C.I.E., 53 photogravure plates (including one folding panorama) on stiff card, each plate with letterpress description, light spotting to opening two images, blank corneres of panorama creased, publisher's maroon cloth, gilt lettered ('Tibet and Lhasa') on upper cover, g.e., bumped at corners, oblong 4to (203 x 263mm.), Calcutta, Johnston and Hoffmann, [1908]Footnotes:A RARE SERIES OF IMAGES FROM YOUNGHUSBAND'S TIBET MISSION OF 1903-1904. Johnston and Hoffman's promotional catalogue of 1905 mentions that the images were initially issued individually or in albums, as half-tone or carbon prints. They were later issued in a two volume set with letterpress descriptions by C.B. Bayley, dated 1907-08. These were almost immediately withdrawn from circulation for fear that the information contained would reveal classified details to the Chinese. Consequently, very few copies remain and are exceptionally rare. Hardly less rare is the single-volume version offered here was published a few months later. When the 1903 expedition was formed White had already been in Sikkim for at least fifteen years. Together with the ambitious Younghusband, and supported by two hundred Indian troops, the expedition was to force the Tibetans to trade with British India, and to investigate concerns that Russia was gaining influence in Lhasa. Kurt and Pamela Meyer, In the Shadow of the Himalayas: A Photographic Record of John Claude White 1883-1908, note that '[White's] incomparable photographs have thus turned out to be the only lasting legacy of the ill-fated adventure of the Imperial Raj into Tibet'.Images in this volume include: two views of Khambajong, the fort that was the first place visited by the Mission and where initial negotiations took place; the Abbot at Khambajong; Gyantze Jong; Debung monastery; a group of lamas of Debung monastery; four views at Nejung monastery; stewards and senior lamas of Sera monastery; the entrance to Lhasa; eight views of the Potola, the palace of the Dalai Lama; a portrait of Ti Rimpochi, the Regent of Tibet with whom 'the Dalai Lama left the ecclesiastical seal when he fled, and it was he who affixed the seal, and his own, to the Treaty signed in the Potola on 7th September 1904'; 'The Shapes', or the Executive Council of Four and a group portrait of Tongsa Penlop and his retinue.Provenance: Searight, pencil ownership inscription on title.This lot is subject to the following lot symbols: •• Zero rated for VAT, no VAT will be added to the Hammer Price or the Buyer's Premium.For further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com
