by far ...
the rarest version of PN oyster dials : 1st series case and dial with the very unusual "Rolex Cosmograph Oyster" configuration .. maybe 6-8 seen since the early 2000s..
so the price may look high ... but it's perfectly consistent to the present market values .. |

340k incl buyers premium is very impressive. With last weeks prices in Geneva I suppose this isn't too surprising. For me it's completely crazy but I'm quite sure I'm not in the target group when this comes up again in a few years. The buyer looked very satisfied so I suppose a "congrats" is in it's place. :)

oppppss......
I have done a mistake as ....
the movie is another one ( " Deadline " ), and the original sentence I have changed is the following: "That's the press, baby! The press! And there's nothing you can do about it. Nothing!" |

Is the dial damaged around the 5-6 or is that the picture (or the plexi)?

Actually just looked at that...I missed it but it isn't missing. It is there and full but has a black mark on it. Go to the link and hit the X3 magnifier.

maybe the dial is not perfect but ...
this " blemish" is completely irrelevant compared to the overall rarity of this watch.
