    I recall reading someone said that these can potentially become the Paul Newman alternative. I can't recall who that someone is though.

    Hey I did the exact same thing to the Gemini 4, only much more successfully, and I sold mine before they blew up. That's how smart I am lol

    Incidentally my dad is the same with cars, if he sells a car for nothing, assume it will be worth a fortune 10 years later. Literally every car he has ever sold for $2k or less is now a $50k+ car, and I'm the same with watches, after I sell them they go up and other people reap the rewards.

    One sold 5 months ago at Phillips for CHF68,750. (Not as nice as the eBay watch, but with papers)
    The eBay watch is cleaner. Has the earlier oval O dial and a mint original bezel (along with a second one).
    Seller is asking 60K OBO. Maybe he'll take 50? Maybe he'll take 40? I guess you'll need to make an offer to find out...

    It’s the one full set that Phillips sold as a « private sale » for 140k in November that makes people crazy with askings ::screwloose::

    Still kindergarten compared to the Holy Grail :D
