The difference in price these days is more like $2500- $3000 on the grey market.

Yes but that's a function of the black dial be heavily discounted because it's a brick to wear, not the dblue being more valuable.

Nah...it's all in good fun. I don't take offense.

But...there are some of my friends and family that think anybody who would spend more than $1k on a watch has more money than sense, so it's all relative.

I've owned the D blue. Probably for a second time within the next couple of weeks...I still find this funny. Its just a joke. Imo you need to calm down if you find this offensive.

Those who are offended have not understood that it is a tribute to DeepSea owners who have more sense than money.

Ha. That Rolex Red ink is oz for oz the most valuable liquid in the world.

I like the D Blue and think $300 is a pretty good deal if they do keep it an allocation piece and he numbers stay low.
