I saw a pre-owned SS Daytona with thin hands at my local Tourneau some time ago for $15,000 or so. What a rip-off.

That is crazy. One just sold today on TRF and the owner was asking $10,600 and it was an M series.

Lisa, I totally agree... I'd rather give my business to another reputable AD. The way I see it, the experience of buying a watch should be just as important to the AD as it is to the customer!!

This one just opened. They have a full staff.

for as long people are willing to pay there is people willing to sell. Just like the 116400GV.

Tragic thing is that some sucker desperately wanting an SS Daytona will go for it.

I've seen 2 come and go at my AD for retail. I'm not crazy about them yet.

Name one thing that people will not overpay for!
