I'm looking for a better DON and was offered this for sub $1000 and thought that seemed quite a good price considering some recent sales. Any thoughts.... just a bit concerned about copies, have these been seen yet? Regards..
I am serious: when I started my profession more than thirty-five years ago I would have never imagined that such parts were not meant for the wastebin.
It's a bit battered isn't it? Not quite meteor shower damage - but evidence of a few bumpy touchdowns. Unless you can get it for a few hundred dollars, I'd pass and wait for a better one.
I'd say maybe $600ish for that one in today's market, perhaps a bit more. I For those who say it isn't worth it - it is what it is.
Yep kind of agree...He's asking $900, i've bid him $700 but think someone will snap it up sooner or later at 900 or v near. It looks ok though right? Genuine etc
Considering what some of the tat on Ebay has been going for recently US$700 for this one seems quite reasonable. Unfortunately Watchtinker says it best above. Where will it end?
Unfortunately what's another $200 in this market. I think you may regret not buying it for $900. I'm not saying I agree with these prices but seems "cheap" for today.
Is it a crazy price for these now, especially when a couple of years back you could pick them up easily for a reasonable price but I guess its just going to get worse
.....but if you're going to spend, spend. Gather some more cash and at least get a decent one. I would not put this bezel on my Speedmaster at any price. Its like buying used tires for your Porsche...
I agree, I can relate (barely) to spending $900 on a DON, just not this one. DON 's are rare, but not hen's teeth.
This is what I'm trying to replace, so I think this would be noticeably better. And I think a better one would be more than double from what i've seen. The last decent one was +$2k and even that had a ding at 60-65!
Yep maybe you are right, I may bide my time a little more! If anyone does have a decent one to go, I am looking Cheers guys.
