A 168000 with B&P for 8k+?

Came across a 168000 which usually goes for about 6k"ish with B&P and considered a hard sell, has the market caught up on these to now sell for 8k+?

some people say they are the rarest of all subs......I don't know about prices but you are getting into the bottom end of 1680's at that price

That's preposterous. There is no way I would pay that for a 168000. You could get a lower tier red 1680 for that price

It looks to be in amazing condition. However, the bent batwings at the caseback tell me that it has been overhauled, so the amazing condition simply shows an excellent job..

Amazing condition or not, it is still overpriced..

Watch Club in London are always well over priced. They are also amongst the most rude and arrogant dealers you could have the misfortune of dealing with. Selling them a watch is similar to dealing with a market trader. All in all quite undignified to say the least. Pay them a visit if you're in London and you'll soon know what I'm talking about.
