    Testify, brother. There are more interesting aspects to watches than price.

    And looking at Larry's post above, I suppose that you now think that the market value of the Cairellis is 50,000 CHF?

    As I wrote - market value is hypothetical until you put your own watch up for sale.

    Someone thought that watch was 50k (or whatever). Someone else a little less and did not get it.

    The Viggen has a special place in my heart. It was hard to find, but ohh so easy to live with. I raise a glass to the new owner. Sorry the citrus got smashed at new year. So had to break into the misses stash.. Shhhh....

    I really like that Lemania Viggen watch.
    NO 1 on my list right now. To bad they are so hard to find.
    Please let me know if you find one for sale.

    According to my profession - yes, but as the Viggen is a pilots watch I think it should rather have been a plane....
    Which ever way I can see my self left behind on the platform/terminal.

    Yes, and a ridiculous text accompanying the 058 one. "Flown" - what BS - as they were all ordered to be issued to Viggen pilots. The early ones got their individual numbers engraved in a really crude way. Has nothing to do with "flown". A watch with a nicely done case back individual number are as "flown" as any other. Are all Viggens "flown"? Very probably most of them - but are there any guarantee? No. As always there could have been some that got side tracked at some point - some other personell that had the right connections, etc.

    Anyway - what kind of individual number marking a Viggen has - has nothing to do with if it is "flown" or not.

    I wonder what would happen if it was presented on, say, Phillips Auctions....
