    Description doesn't explicitly say so and the box is not silver

    DeLuxe - probably a 2699 or 2700.

    EDIT: found the AQ listing - it's a 2699.

    There's dirt on the inside facet of the bezel. I don't think it's worn at all.

    You've seen the estimate in AQ right? Are you doubting it?

    Looks about right to me. I would have said $6.5 - $7.5K but not after seeing how off I've been on the prices of these the last 6 - 8 months.

    I have seen it but i have a bad feeling that it would go beyond that estimation... i wanted i know at what price i should back out and let it go :)

    i know it kinda stupid question...

    like a date@6 watch is good at 400$ its ok to chase it till 700 but beyond 700 will be above market price and not worth it...

    I think it's a very good buy at $6k, ok buy at $7500 and pushing it at $8-9000. Remember there is a 25% buyer's premium that is tacked on to your bid price.

    Ok i am new to this auctions homes... so i have to pay the 25% more.... i thought they deduct that from seller payout ??

    even if i go till 8000 i will end up paying 10000

    Hope none of these crazy ebay buyers dont show up on that day

    That's right. Another 25% on top of the hammer price.

    I would put $8k as my ceiling inclusive of buyer's premium but that's just me. You can go higher of course if you wish.

    Read the small print "conditions of sale" very carefully before bidding, sumerian.
