This reference is the only split-seconds chronograph ever manufactured by the brand, and it was never offered for public sale, having been commissioned as gifts for professional racing drivers. The watch features a Valjoux 55 VBR 17.5-ligne movement housed in an oversized 44mm stainless steel case, which is unusually large for the era. Only 12 examples were produced, and only eight are currently accounted for by scholars. Due to its extreme rarity and historical significance as the most complicated Rolex ever made, the reference 4113 commands prices in the multi-million dollar range on the secondary market. In 2016, a well-preserved example sold at a Phillips auction for approximately $2.4 million, and prices have since remained at the top tier of the vintage watch market."}, "listing_stats": {"count": 0, "median": 0, "low": 0, "high": 0}, "listings": [], "auction_lots": [{"slug": "rolex-4113-2016", "brand": "Rolex", "reference": "4113", "model": "Split-Seconds Chronograph", "case_material": "Stainless Steel", "hammer_usd": 2466793, "year_sold": 2016, "venue": "Phillips Geneva", "lot_summary": "The only split-seconds chronograph ever produced by Rolex, one of only 12 examples made and never offered for public sale.", "source_url": "https://www.phillips.com/detail/rolex/CH080116/56", "provenance": "ai_generated_grounded", "url": "https://mostexpensivewatches.net/auctions/rolex-4113-2016"}, {"slug": "rolex-4113-2019", "brand": "Rolex", "reference": "4113", "model": "Split-Seconds Chronograph", "case_material": "Stainless Steel", "hammer_usd": 1945000, "year_sold": 2019, "venue": "Christie's Geneva", "lot_summary": "One of only 12 examples ever produced, this oversized 44mm split-seconds chronograph is among the rarest and most complicated Rolex watches.", "source_url": "https://www.christies.com/lot/lot-6234857", "provenance": "ai_generated_grounded", "url": "https://mostexpensivewatches.net/auctions/rolex-4113-2019"}, {"slug": "rolex-4113-1996", "brand": "Rolex", "reference": "4113", "model": "Split-Seconds Chronograph", "case_material": "Stainless Steel", "hammer_usd": 800851, "year_sold": 1996, "venue": "Antiquorum Geneva", "lot_summary": "One of only 12 examples known, this oversized split-seconds chronograph from the Mondani Collection set a long-standing world record for a Rolex at auction.", "source_url": "https://www.antiquorum.swiss/news/history/", "provenance": "ai_generated_grounded", "url": "https://mostexpensivewatches.net/auctions/rolex-4113-1996"}]}
