Any thoughts on whether we will see an appreciation of price or is the hype already priced in?

Thanks for putting it together. I think the price difference are directly correlated to professional sellers vs hobbyist that were lucky to snag one.

I wonder how many collectors saw green and decided to flip it ASAP haha

I paid 12.4k for mine, why would you pay more?

Beats me, I'm just intrigued by market actions.

That's a great looking watch, looks like the International mall took care of you.

What I'd suggest, and will follow my own advice, if you're still on a list at an AD by Christmas - then snag a pre-owned for some savings.

If somebody noticed your watch and offered you 20K cash, would you sell it?

Sales tax

I agree with you. Scalpers makes me sick (see M. Ali tickets to his funeral). I won't pay over retail even if it means I will never own one - I am just stubborn that way.

I think anyone would. Lol

But what is the likelihood of that happening...

I don't think Tom would actually. And you don't either Roger, it's a beauty.

Interesting info. I will patiently wait.

Nah - you're 100% right my friend. I wouldn't either. It is a beautiful reference - both dials!!

👍👍

And it's a great daily!

It's a great watch and I feel lucky to have been an early owner, but I would never pay over MSRP.

To answer one of your questions - no I do not think the Daytona C will appreciate in value (not counting the price hikes) because there will be plenty made for a long time. Everyone who wants one will get one, at MSRP or less eventually. I do not think you will need to wait that long - all that talk about 5-10 year wait is complete BS to me.

I used the hype to pick up a classic Daytona in black dial for a great price and relative value and don't feel like I am missing out. I will probably get the white Daytona C at some point down the road if I don't lose interest.

Only wanted to say how much I love your Avatar. Do you know that you can watch just about every episode of Gatchaman on Youtube?
