We still see legislation for a National language despite the fact that was established 200 years ago, and the majority of Americans are afraid of anything “ferrin”.
Very sad.

Please, it's "furrin'". After all, some furriners are furrier than their American counterparts.

I always like to remind people who get on a nationalistic rant that unless their name ends with Standing Bear- their families were furriners once.

If you're claiming that the LE is a rip off, then you need a data point to work from - the Oris Diver 65 40mm on bracelet is that data point.

The Oris Diver 65 40mm stainless steel on bracelet (01 733 7707 4354-07 8 20 18) has an MRSP of $2200 - this is the price it was at launch, and at that time, you couldn't get a discount on one.

Now that they are readily available, and in the grey market, you can buy one new for $1650 - not the "street price of $800-$1000" that you claim - which is a chunky discount, but that discount does not affect the MRSP of a future model of the Diver 65, be it LE or not.

The "Hodinkee markup" is the difference between MRSP of the closest model, and the MRSP of the Hodinkee watch.

Which as I've said, for what you get does not seem unreasonable.

I wonder which of our old familiar banned members/trolls you are?

it's an awesome buy. you should go buy 2. sell one for a profit and then sit back and kick up your feet like you own the world

Congrats on managing to miss the point, and continue to be deeply butthurt about what other people have done with their money.

Sincerely,

The guy who's not buying any of the LEs, from any of the manufacturers.

it's redick.

the whole psychology behind LE and their exclusivity and the peeps that buy them amazes me to no end.

peeps cannot get enough, and don't mind paying a premium..these watches are going for 3k on the bay now...

Just for fun I counted the number of these that popped up in a Watchrecon search... I got to 30, excluding the obvious duplicate posts by the same seller. Six more are on eBay at the moment! I'll bet most of the 250 were gobbled by flippers.

i really prefer the revolution honey dial to the dinky.. i would like to buy it, and it's an awesme looker.....but when your up to 21/23 hundo for a oris like this your money is just better off being put elsewhere...... ..if it was on the light side of 15 i would really strongly consider

but the dinky phenomenon is strong.................like jedi strong
