So is this $8000 worth?

I better get a safe. Who needs to hoard gold?

Now time to roll out one of my favorite photos from yesteryear:

Now come clean William, how many in the stack are DON? Some of us have good memories.😉

Actually if you look the photo is clever staging.
The DO90's you can see are poor, and those that you cannot see, are not DO90's
In fact they are mostly new bezels that I removed from my watches and replaced them with DO90's.
So actually, yes, I just realised I do have the DO90's, but on watches, and from when people thought I was mad paying $500 for a mint one.

Pure madness, I thought vintage Rolex bezels were pricey, but these are in different league.

Well Speedmaster Bezels, like speedmasters (the old ones) are much rarer.

How about this at 1600$

I would rate it collector condition....

Yes, comes with the collector box too.

Correction...It's a "cal.321 bezel Over Dot"...😒

HUGE difference thus the price is fully justified! Bezels over dots are extremely rare...I think there is only one in existence 😝

OK. So we have..
"Meteorite" bezels
"Hurricane" dials (New!)
And now "BOD" (bezel over dot) bezels...

When will it end? 😵‍💫

don't forget the No Dot Dot Over 90 - DON bezels which have unfortunately lost to dot because of scratches or dents.. 😉

Yep. The normal course of things in todays market...

They have become rich boys toys. Vintage watches, especially chronographs will become off limits for many in a hurry... if not already. I for one, cannot grow my collection without selling a kid, kidney or wife (the wife might be enough for a "meteorite" DON..😉)

Cheers,

pics?
