I know it's been mentioned here before, as subject of another auction, before it went on ebay, but can that be the value (even for the condition) ?

I thought it sold very dear.

Thought the high water mark would be < US$2500. Obviously way off, as there were quite a few bids well beyond that level.

 

yhe watch is very beautiful but the price ........scary!!!!
compliments to the seller..
n.1

 

Well I was not the buyer, but I have to say that I suspect this is the way the market is heading.

Very high prices for exceptional things.

With the second best far far less valuable.

 

Complements to michael e, and to the buyer; sure i remember seeing some of his very nice watches.
Still, i'm sure the score on this one has well overcome even the wildest estimation, maybe even Michael's. Should this be the trend ?
While on the forum these seem to get lots of attention, most of the vintage catalog prices don't even include cal. 30 family pieces, so i'm sure this could be the kind of statement that they are still undervalued... and ignored.

 

I will settle for half that price for mine!



Any takers?

Bonus: it is stamped Suverän on the back

 

Omega being undervalued by the Omega forum

I must admit I was surprised at the price but when the question is asked "will I find another like this?" I think the answer will be no.

The sale has not been completed yet either so the price is not the price until the buyer pays and he is happy.
Thanks Mick

 

1/4?

 

edit... Double post

 

Can we get a dislike/thumbs down button on here please?

 

No, this is a friendly forum

 

Nice vintage Omgas like Mike's example fetch higher price due to all our work here, in part, plus you gotta admit.....its a looker.

Ppl move to the good looking examples ( more so if deemed special / unique rare ) and are more willing to pay up. When I sold my simple 145.012 I struggled to price it a la Dennis for OF members while realizing the general uptick in Vintage Speedys in good shape. My 2 cents ...

 

LoL. Sure 'bout dat? How many PMs so far

Im all hocked but would surely Dibs U if I could!!!

LoL

Love this OF.

 

if you are willing to go a little less than half, I will take it.

 

The one on the bay is nice, the price does reflect how hard it is to find something so complete. Unless there was shill bidding. I feel it is slight overpriced.

 

I have the feeling, that we will see it again...... kind regards. achim

 

No shill bidding took place.
Thanks
