Where do you see that info? 😕
, I think we are here comparing “apples” (I.e., true unrestored, “barn found” watches) and “oranges” (I.e., prepared watches... in the proper sense of the term: relumed hand by an expert, period correct crystal with retention ring, etc.). From what I understand, some collectors prefer the former while other prefer the latter.
As of Wednesday morning, 7:56am CST, 217 people. I'd guess more than half of them are "working" from home.
Two bidders got emotional.
No. It all happened in the last 5 seconds so the bids were premeditated.
I understand that, but I still think those were emotional, "I must win this auction" bids. I like the watch, but not at that price.
Ah that might be the case yes. To be honest I also put in a bid of slightly over 10k so one could say that this type of barn find actually does command an ‘emo-premium’.
+1 but it’s obvious bidders just bumped up the price without any intention of buying... New? No, don’t think so. Case in point, we gotta stop eating our young here 😀
