Like many local men, his life revolved around the iron making trade, and he soon joined the Wilsontown Iron Works near Forth, south east of the city. It was here that James Beaumont Neilson (1792-1865) developed a new blast furnace, but it was Condie's invention of the Spiral Tuyere in 1836 that enabled raw coal from the adjacent mines to be used in the process, rather than the far more expensive coke. It was during this time of innovation and expansion that this clock was presented to Condie by his workmen. With the closure of the Wilsontown Works in 1842 (which at one time had employed two thousand men), Condie moved to the Govan Iron Works at Hutchesontown, not far from the Gorbals. It was here in 1846 that he patented a steam hammer with a fixed piston and a moving cylinder which carried the hammer at its base. The first example was erected in the Govan works in 1848. Condie went on to produce a number of these gargantuan steam hammers, each with up to as much as a seven ton force, for several forges around Scotland. Condie handed over the Govan works to Allan C. Wylie before his death in Wellcroft Place in his home city of Glasgow at the age of sixty-one in 1860.Reading the presentation inscription on this clock, one is left in no doubt that not only was Condie a man of huge talent and vision but was also a man of great humanity. The esteem in which he was held by his workforce exudes from every line. The clock was given relatively early on in his career and it is pleasing to consider that this timepiece was witness to such a fertile mind, one that certainly changed the fortunes of Glasgow, and improved the processes of iron manufacturing at a time when Britain was considered 'the workshop of the world.'For further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com

The single-button, split second chronograph is powered by the revolutionary Calibre CHR 27-525PS. The movement, which was first used in the 5959P is, to this day, still the thinnest column-wheel chronograph calibre ever made. At just 5.35mm it is an exquisite feat of the finest watchmaking. Movements like this are the reason Patek Philippe are so revered.Despite its relatively young age, this piece is already a tried and true collector's item. The 5950A is an Application piece, meaning it was only ever made for and sold to Patek's best clients. Its limited production making it exceptionally difficult to find. The watch's distinctive design only further improves its desirability. While most complicated Pateks are fashioned from precious metals, this reference is crafted in stainless steel, a surprising, but welcome deviation from the norm. The classic raised Breguet numerals and belle epoque flourishes seamlessly compliment the modern aesthetic of the case making the watch timeless and modern. With such consistently strong numbers at auction, this model is the ultimate collector's piece. It is already cemented as one of the most impressive pieces from, arguably, the most important manufacturer.This lot is subject to the following lot symbols: YY Subject to CITES regulations when exporting items outside of the EU, see clause 13.For further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com
