New gold sub

My new (to me) gold sub.Wow,!!I just love this dial,waited a long time to find the right one.Not many for sale in my part of the world.Full set unpolished,super excited.Makes my steel watches seem dull,I suppose the novelty will wear off eventually.

These 5 digits are probably one of the best bang for buck watches left.

The prices of 6 digit gold subs are through the bloody roof. These 5 digits will follow sooner or later.

Man I just checked Davidsw has a second hand 6 digit now selling for $48k USD.

Geeesus these full gold subs have gone bonkers. This was my absolute DREAM watch several years ago when the ceramic versions where $26k all day long.

If second hand is around $48k USD a new one is going to be over $50k easily.

I'm never going to be able to afford one of these now. :(
