Simon De Pury

Simon de Pury is one of the art world's leading figures, renowned for his legendary performance on the auction podium and for his deep and long- standing knowledge of the global marketplace.He is Chairman and Chief Auctioneer of Phillips de Pury & Company, the leading global auction house for Contemporary Art, Design and Photography and still owns a significant share in the business after having sold the majority in October 2008 to the Mercury Group, Russia's largest luxury retail company. He's an amazingly interesting guy.
Simon de Pury has combined with Casio to design a couple of new colorways in the brand’s popular G-Shock series. The watch will commemorate and indeed complement Simon de Pury’s forthcoming exhibition “PURYPARISGRAPHY,” which will be on display from January 3 to 29 at Colette. The watch is limited to just 20 pieces and features an engraved back, as well as a package created from SDP’s photographs.
