on sale a few speedmaster

 

Here are their buyers fees:

Geneva

25.0% Up to CHF 100,000 Up to CHF 75,000
20.0% CHF 100,001 to CHF 2,000,000 CHF75,001 to CHF1,500,000
12.0% CHF2,000,001 and above CHF1,500,001 and above

So on top of the high prices there is a monster fee on top but then again you might be able to snag some nice pieces.

 

And a 2998-2 tropical

 

At least the dial looks correct on this one. Shame about the hands.

 

and if i'm not mistaken, the movement number is out by a couple million... should be in the 17M range.

edit: some nice looking pieces though!

 

I think lot 60 is my old watch, I will need to check my records and will let you all know, if it is it was a great example

 

Movement is 17302961 on the tropical one (lot 215) but you are correct about the other one (lot 216) at 19.8M.

In fact, is there anything from a 2998-2 there? Hands new, later dial and bezel, later movement as noted. I suppose the case (or back) could be from a -2 but I'm wondering if the lot is mislabeled.

 

Or that is why the estimated sale value is so low.

 

Wow these are some nice looking pieces.

 

William already assessed these watches on his site (www.speedmaster101.com) - it's under the blog
