Christie's vs Ebay?
I believe it's their first online watch auction...i couldn't find provenance discussion, but kind of fun anyway.

I'm looking at the very first watch, the Sea Dweller, and in the description it says the gas escape valve is in the band.

Who in their right mind would bid on those watches with such insane reserves, crazy buyer-premiums and sales tax??????
