Watching now; thanks for the head's up.

This 1675 at 23K EUR paddle price!

Now the Omega 300 will be interesting to watch in comparison ... [EDIT: insert sarcasm]

I was looking at that Seamaster but wasn't interested to go that high, also the RAID.... but not any more!

Amazing... the RAID just hammered at €70k. It was no. 1/250 but still 😕

I have a 3594.50 Replica that is 1/150, want it for 65k? 😉 The RAID was a charity auction with no commission; I've seen some very generous charity auction bidders over the years - no explanation for this one though. As you said No 1, maybe worth a 20% premium? Did I hear correctly that Omega SA was the seller?

not that high when the description was essentially “this is an inoperable basket case” 😵‍💫

Probably a lot of fine watches to be found in Monaco. Once wealthy compulsive gamblers hocking their Rolex for one last bet on the wheel before offing themselves.
