Hi Guys[emoji137]
That brand new Silver Snoopy was advertised in the Singapore watch forum 26 weeks ago was up for sale for USD 16 629 /=
- Non Negotiable-
A Malaysian colleague of mine contacted the seller to inquire about the Snoopy after a few days but left frustrated when he was informed that the watch had already been snapped up! He suspected the buyer was from Hong Kong
I dont believe the price will ever drop & a LE Speedy with its Rich History & an amazing provenance will never stabilized because The Sky's the Limit !
Call it Exorbitant , Inflated , Bloated or just plain Vulgar , wealthy horological & non horological Singaporeans & Hong Kong Millionaires dont give a Rat's Ass what you think the price should be....
A Chinese businessman i once met at a lunch talk in a hotel , cast his eyes on my watch & thought i was wearing the JB Spectre but it was actually the regular version with the Original JB Nato Strap . When i told him otherwise , he just nodded & literally told me
" If it was really the Spectre in question, i would have thrown 8750 US dollars at your face., unbuckle the strap & take the bloody watch off you ! ". I was kicking myself , regretted my decision last year to politely decline the OB offer to reserve one Snoopy for me
I wont be the least surprise if the buyer was actually an intermediary or middle-man who was instructed to buy the watch for his Boss who probably owns an AP Royal Oak but bought the Silver Snoopy anyway as a gift for his college bound son ( more likely is the typical Asian scenario when the son pesters his father daily for the Snoopy so that he could boast to his friends in college ! )
USD 20 K for the "Silver Snoopy " you say ?
Dude ! That's " Peanuts " for affluent Singaporeans or Hongkies !!!
