Interesting. I saw a pic of this somewhere, but wasn't aware it had sold for that much.

I saw a headline somewhere but can't recall where. The price may also be evidence of a growing bubble in the luxury vintage market methinks

"watchanish" on instagram posted a pic of it about 3 days ago. I thought it was interesting. I have definitely never seen anything quite like it.
I couldn't pay that. Oh, the watch collection I could have with $1.2M. It is
a really cool piece though.

Another Paul Newman Daytona just went for more than $400k. Vintage Rolex prices are getting up there with Pateks, and considering Rolex doesn't have much of complications to speak with, even more amazing.

Yes, I've seen it on other threads and as I said before, I could just kill myself for not pouncing on that baby because 1949 is my birth year.

If I had $1.2 mil, I'd call Mike Wood!
