Only 150 made why are they so cheap? I think it's a beautiful watch. Also it's not the most basic complication it has chrono at least. I'm confused at why this is priced the way it is. Sub 20k. Someone enlighten me please and thanks!

The truth is sub 20k is not cheap lol

If you like it buy it.

I like it a lot and I plan on buying it. The only reason I ask is because I admit I would be deterred and change my mind if I was told it didn't hold its value nearly as well as other examples. That would be enough to sway me. That's the only reason I ask. Figured maybe there was some catch, ETA movement, who knows. Then again I guess it's not cheap. A PM pressy is comparable in price

ETA movement?

ETA never exists in an AP...

Years ago, this model was in very high demand, as it was AP's second PVD coated watch, after the limited edition "End of Days". I remember everyone drooled over it. I think now that AP has so many different chronographs in different materials, maybe the market doesn't consider this one to be as special as it used to be? I think it's still the only PVD Royal Oak Chrono ever made, so it's still exclusive.

If you do pick it up, you should definitely factor in servicing costs.
