Hi all.
Seriously considering this watch on chrono from à respected dealer. Will be my first but wonder regarding the price/fair market value? Would appreciate some advice should I hold on for a better priced watch or does it seem reasonable? It is a 14900
It has been serviced by them and 1 year warranty. 3885 euros

Only low resolution pictures from the seller which is bad, I bet the dial has issues which can't bee seen

Case is quite soft, wrong crown

No way this is worth that much money!

Yes, the resolution is low because I have had to take a screen shot, on Chrono you can not copy images. there are high resolution pictures on the site and the dial is completely clean, I have a screen shot of the a magnification, and of the case which I guess maybe a bit soft, but I leave that up to your expertise as I am a novice. In any case with this higher res photos what would be a reasonable price?

Those are still no high res pictures in any way that one could do a proper evaluation with.

I had checked the Chrono24 pictures, you can't evaluate the dial from those pictures!

I'm still convinced the dial is far from "completely clean"

Wait for some more input but 3800€ for this watch is nuts!

You can copy images from C24. Either temporarily disable javascript in your browser, or install "absolute enable right click" in firefox.

€3800 is stupid money for this one. As has been mentioned, the case is overpolished & crown is wrong. I don't think it would be worth half that if the dial was perfect and there seems to be some doubt about that!

thanks, think I will give it a miss. seems extremely difficult to find a nice clean, silver arrow head , no dial watch. or am I being picky....

Good idea. No point seeking advice and then ignoring it 👍

Some minor spotting on the dial, which is common but obviously not desirable. The case is softer than I would like. Overall, it still could be an ok watch at the right price, but the watch feels like it's priced somewhere near 2x its market value, even with the current frenzy over this model.

This is overpriced by 1000 eur basically even going by dealer standards. The overpolished case is a turn off and the movement is imo in poor condition (if serviced probably some parts replacement but nothing mention a red flag imo), both these factors indicate the watch was found in poor condition both externally and internally and then worked on. I would stay away and look for better 'natural' condition, if you are willing to spend so much money on it i really think you ought to go for something else that feels fresher.

Thank you very much. I appreciate your I it in. I will keep looking but the exact spec that I am looking for appear to be hard to come buy in good and.
