The value of the Patek, purchased by Lennon&#8217;s wife Yoko Ono at Tiffany &amp; Co. in New York for around $25,000 (around $95,000 in today&#8217;s dollars) as a 40th birthday present for the legendary musician, is even higher thanks to its rare double-stamped dial.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Ono gifted John Lennon the watch, which famously appears in photos of the Beatle taken by lensman Bob Gruen, on October 9, 1980, just two months before he was shot and killed by a deranged fan outside the Dakota, the couple&#8217;s apartment building in New York City. The Patek, which appears to be the only wristwatch Lennon ever wore, bears an elaborate engraving on the caseback from Ono, reading:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p align=\"center\">(JUST LIKE)<br>\nSTARTING OVER<br>\nLOVE YOKO<br>\n10 \u2022 9 \u2022 1980<br>\nN. Y. C.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Patek produced just 349 examples of the ultra-complicated Ref. 2499, which encompasses three apertures (day, month, moon phase) and three subdials (seconds, elapsed minutes, date), from 1952 to 1985, Fielden notes. After Lennon&#8217;s death, Ono stored the Patek in a locked room in one of their apartments at the Dakota, and there it remained &#8211; or so she thought. Fielden reveals that it was allegedly stolen by a former employee of the couple around 2005, reportedly without Ono&#8217;s immediate knowledge. The man subsequently claimed the watch had been a gift from Lennon&#8217;s widow.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"512\" src=\"https:\/\/www.bobswatches.com\/rolex-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/NY_X14_Patek-2499_1-M60-1-1024x512.jpg\" alt=\"Patek Philippe Ref. 2499\" class=\"wp-image-18137\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.bobswatches.com\/rolex-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/NY_X14_Patek-2499_1-M60-1-1024x512.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.bobswatches.com\/rolex-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/NY_X14_Patek-2499_1-M60-1-300x150.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.bobswatches.com\/rolex-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/NY_X14_Patek-2499_1-M60-1-768x384.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.bobswatches.com\/rolex-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/NY_X14_Patek-2499_1-M60-1-585x293.jpg 585w, https:\/\/www.bobswatches.com\/rolex-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/NY_X14_Patek-2499_1-M60-1.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>It has since passed through the watch department of at least one European auction house, and in 2014 was valued at about $800,000 (about $1 million today), prior to being sent to Christie&#8217;s in Geneva. Ono says she only learned the watch had allegedly been stolen when Christie&#8217;s contacted her lawyer as part of their due diligence. Christie&#8217;s then locked the watch away in its Geneva vault for several years while trying to untangle its true ownership.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The iconic timepiece is now the subject of an <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cnbctv18.com\/lifestyle\/john-lennon-missing-patek-philippe-watch-resurfaces-likely-worth-millions-17756641.htm\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">ongoing lawsuit in Switzerland to determine whether it should be returned to Ono<\/a>, or to a man who says he purchased it legally in 2014 and owns it outright. Switzerland&#8217;s Supreme Court, the Tribunal F\u00e9d\u00e9ral, is expected to render a final verdict later this year, Fielden reports.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Altieri, who is one of the world&#8217;s top Rolex collectors and also counts several rare Pateks among his prized possessions, says that, &#8220;I would love to see this watch be legitimately put up for auction, and have a chance to bid on it; but in my heart I hope it stays in Lennon&#8217;s family, because if it was mine I would want to keep it in my family. I think John Lennon would have wanted his son to have it. Any Patek is an heirloom, but this might be the biggest one of them all, especially as it is the only watch Lennon ever wore.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>And indeed, Lennon&#8217;s son Sean &#8211; whose birthday is October 9, 1975, the same day and month as his father&#8217;s, tells Fielden, &#8220;Of all the incidents of people stealing things from my parents, this one is the most painful\u2026. It&#8217;s important that we get it back because of all we&#8217;ve gone through over it,&#8221; though he has no plans to wear the watch himself. &#8220;I\u2019m not a watch guy,&#8221; he says. &#8220;I&#8217;d be terrified to wear anything of my dad&#8217;s. I never even played one of his guitars.&#8221;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In a&nbsp;masterful feat of horological reporting&nbsp;in the&nbsp;New&nbsp;Yorker, Jay Fielden has
