is about to score a massive payday after putting his watch collection up for auction, because one of the timepieces could fetch a literal king's ransom.next month ... and one crown jewel, in particular, has a watch expert going bonkers 'cause it's incredibly rare .-- who knows all things watches -- tells TMZ ... he simply can't believe Sly is parting with his ultra-rare Patek Philippe Grandmaster Chime.
The Grandmaster Chime is one of the most complicated and exclusive wristwatches made -- with just a small handful in circulation -- and that's why Leonard says it'll go for well over $5 million, which is what it's pegged to fetch once it actually goes up for sale.The last time a Patek Philippe Grandmaster Chime was up for auction, it sold for a record $31 million.
As for what's so special about it ... he gives us a sense of what it can do, and why it's a collector's item -- and, apparently, it all has to do with functionality, anywhere in the world.The other 10 watches include a separate Patek Philippe model expected to nab six figures, along with a 60th anniversary Rolex and several Panerai watches, one which Sly donned in 1996's “Daylight."If Leonard is right, Sly will be several million dollars richer by the end of this.
