Catalogue Essay
Heavy, massive and impressive, the present lot comprising of two presentation boxes are among the most luxurious and important presentation boxes made by Urban Jürgensen. This box is made for the collector who would like to reunite their Urban Jürgensen watches (or any other brand, for the matter) in two presentation boxes to make a true collector's set. So rare is this combination of ostrich and wood that these boxes have never appeared on the auction market, giving collectors a unique opportunity to truly dress up their collection.
