ยทI pulled the trigger on a Hesalite earlier this year when I was in Vegas. It's something I've wanted for years and it continued to be just out of reach regardless of my income. I remember when I could have gotten a used Speedmaster for $1.5k, now it wasn't worth the difference to me not to go new and get the updated movement and bracelet since used prices for an average Speedmaster were nearly the same as a new one. I'm glad I bought when I did, as I don't think I could justify it now with the price increase.
There's a jewelry store in Beaverton that will remain nameless, in which the owner hoarded Speedmasters before they lost their AD status. Rest assured, they'll probably always be sold for the current price. I didn't even bother to check pricing or availability in OR before buying mine.
Quite a few of us have had negative experiences there, so it is unsurprising.
