Some people just don't know what to do with their spare $$$...
 For that amount of money, I'd buy:a brand new Porsche a Daytona a Sea-Dweller a TT Sub a gold Sub a Milgause

If this buyer has paid 55k pounds for this piece, will he double his money when he flips it in say 5 or 10 years?

Some of these were going for only $25,000 not too long ago. Look at where they are now.

Rare, valuable, and extremely desirable. The buyer is a great collector and a real gentleman.
