Saw this listed on Ebay, and am wondering - is it really worth US$159k?

It is worth that to the seller and any fool to pay that amount . Some people have more money then sense ...

one sold last year at Antiquorum for $126k

It's possible for someone to buy it , it does look pretty good...

That would get me 16 SS Daytonas models plus a few services and a lot of love from Rolex HQ...

It's not really appropriate to label whoever might be prepared to pay that amount a fool. With a model like this, you're certainly not going to get a buyer who doesn't know his stuff. While the asking price and amount of money may be extraordinary to you, it might be loose change to someone else. It's all relative.

Worth is all in the eyes ... If I thought a pepsi can can was worth one million dollars, I would gladly pay for it .... surprisingly, I think a pepsi can is worth 30cents .... same goes for this watch ....

Notice, he's got a 'make an offer' button...He's basically advertising the top price isn't he?

It's worth whatever someone will pay for it.

I think the Paul Newman Daytona's have peaked the way some classic cars did in the early 90s and there maybe a price correction.
