The present lot is in excellent condition and is for the first time offered at Auction.

Christophe Claret is entertaining collectors once more with his ingenious creativity, this time offering gamblers a genuine miniature casino on the wrist with 3 games: Blackjack, Roulette and Dice.
While still displaying the time, which is a non-existing feature in Casinos worldwide, the present watch incorporates eight rectangular windows showing cards randomly delivered by the "dealer". On the back, a full roulette wheel spins, waiting for an arrow to land on a lucky number. The Dice game can be played and viewed in the aperture to the case side. The present lot is a limited edition of 21 pieces and is numbered 9.
