The collection also includes a handful of offerings from Mercedes-Benz, Citron, and Puch.
Oliver Camelin, Gooding Christie's Managing Director, EMEA, said: “Geneva has been one of the world's great meeting points for collectors for decades, and cars are a natural addition to Christie's Luxury Week. We are delighted to bring Gooding Christie's to Geneva with an exceptional, largely single-owner collection of modern Ferraris, offered without reserve. Our November auction marks the first step towards establishing Geneva as a recurring and important part of the Gooding Christie's EMEA calendar.”
Also being offered during Geneva Luxury Week, highlighting the strong resonance between the automotive and watch collecting sectors, are unique watches formerly from the private collection of Formula 1 racing legend Michael Schumacher. 2026 marks Michael Schumacher's 30th anniversary since joining La Scuderia Ferrari – which was celebrated at the Monza F1 Grand Prix in early September with Ferrari drivers wearing specially made racing suits and helmets to commemorate this moment. Schumacher's watch collection featured a rare set of five F.P. Journe Ruthenium timepieces with matching serial numbers. To allow wristwatch collectors and motor racing enthusiasts alike the opportunity to own a timepiece from the former Schumacher collection, each watch, numbered 92/99 will be offered as a separate lot in the Rare Watches live auction (9 November).
