    Don't know if the seller is a forum member but this is currently for sale on the bay.

    Condition is good.

    Still 8days left and already at 1.8k USD. Will this break the 3000 USD mark.

    Have there been any DO90 bezels to sell for more than $3k anywhere yet?

    DON's broke $3,000 in 2015. Of course, they were attached to a 145.022-69. :).

    I say this bezel does not break $3,000. It's very nice but not pristine.

    Quick question: are there any watches with bezels more expensive than the mentioned 2.6k?

    IOW: are don90's already the most expensive bezel there is?

    Cheers Al

    Not even remotely close to being the most expensive, try finding a bakelite GMT bezel.

    I'm just curious here and totally irrelevant to the OP but, what's the cost to get a new bezel from Omega for today's/modern Speedmaster? @Archer , can you share the list price?

    When did we last see a very good example of a base 1000 up for sale. Hard to value something so rare.

    Rolex GMT Burberry inserts go for $10k+ if you can find one. Also, Rolex GMT Fuschia bezels now routinely fetch $3k.

    There are a few different versions of the DN90 bezel. @Spacefruit has a good review detailing out how to identify the different DN90 bezels. You can find the rewiew at speedmaster101.com
    The first DN90 version after the DO90 has sold here and on ebay for 200 to 500 USD depending on the condition.

    1 day to go on this auction and already over the 2.5k USD mark. Surely will hit the 3k with last minute bidding. Surprising, as it's not mint. Pitt I don't have a few in the parts drawer.
