seating at a table one guy has this. Never seen it before. What is it?

 

I’m interested in reading answers there is one for sale in my area I only saw a picture so far and didn’t know what to make of it

 

Looks like a Speedmaster Mk40 day date. Love this watch, in my list.

 

Wasn’t there one of those on WRUW in the last few days?

 

Definitely the Mk40—the watch that inspired Hodinkee’s 10th Anniversary Speedmaster (https://www.hodinkee.com/articles/omega-speedmaster-hodinkee-10th-anniversary-limited-edition)

 

The inspiration for the hodinkee colab.

 

So what is a fair price for it?

This is the guy

 

On eBay, these go anywhere from $1500-$2500 depending on condition. This one is missing a bracelet and the case needs a closer look to check for over-polishing.

 

Lol, I think that’s less than he paid for it.

Oh well!

 

Is he buying the champagne?

 

Maybe you can use this to gauge how much you can negotiate with him: Chrono24.

 

I am

 

I’m actually not interested. It’s just a conversation piece

 

The one in my area the guy is asking 2k. I’ll see if he is willing to move on the price just for research purpose

 

But Chrono24 is at 6g?

 

Ebay sold listings. Enjoy your dinner.

 

Can I ask why you say that?

 

Say what? That I’m not interested? Because I’m not. The conversation part because a couple of friends know im into watches so they asked me about it and that just started the conversation. Not knowing much about it I thought I’d ask the group

 

Oh when you said not interested I thought you found fault with the watch, thanks

 

It’s smart looking and thanks for reminding me that this one is out there. I never really looked at pricing on them but now that I know they can be had sub $2.5k, that knocks I it higher up on my list.
