Ken Israel

After training in notarial law and a stint in journalism, Ken was introduced to the art world by his uncle, Armand Israel, a specialist in modern paintings. He went on to establish his own advisory practice, building over a decade of experience in the private sale and acquisition of 20th-century watches and jewellery in Paris. Familiar with the inner workings of auction houses, he was appointed Head of Watches at Adam’s in 2024.
