We are just short of the 10X mark… I know, probably no one will pay that much…. Probably?

I guess the previous "gen" $54K 116509s (and 19s) with meteorite are a steal!

Funny you mention that. I came to loathe the black eye look on the glare white dial.

That's why I love the newer steel dial (and meteorite). Trying to get that steel one at retail. Bracelet or OF. Don't care.

I just don’t understand whose idea it is to have a meteorite dial and cover up 40% of the dial with black paint or whatever it is……I’m glad I have my original and prefer it to the new one by a long shot…..

What is that eBay? I saw an OP41 on Chrono24 for $500k.

Until we see trusted sellers asking similar prices it doesn’t mean anything.

I assume it’s Tiffany blue. If so, it makes sense.

If I had won that $500,000,000 lottery last week, still would have bothered me to pay that lol...

If I was a billionaire I still wouldn’t pay more than retail for any watch or any product for that matter. Humanity seems to have lost its principles this last couple of years.

Exactly. You wouldn't reach that level of success or come anywhere close to it by engaging in this type of impulsive behavior because if you do that with a purchase such as this, you are most likely acting impulsively elsewhere, as well.

What do you say about those who spend a million on a wedding, bar mitvah/bat mitzvah, sweet sixteen?
Not everybody makes your choices. Jack Whitaker won like 300 million on powerball and he was ALREADY a millionaire and blew most of it on dope, hookers, family gifts, etc.

He spent 300 million on alcohol, drugs and hookers… The rest he just wasted on non-essentials.

Your Damn right Gary. Money is money but I was taught that if you worried about the pennies, nickels, and dimes the dollars would take care of themselves. My dollar is worth the same as yours even if I only have one and you have a million
