Went for $80,000. Is that a fair price? The estimate was $100-200k.

Those Mir's are a bit contrived. I prefer these, flown? Quite possibly, worn by an astronaut? Definitely. Value for money, Tick!
More authentic, more historical, and rarer!
It’s a NASA issued Speedmaster X-33 used for the Space Shuttle, and ISS missions.
Is the difference between a NASA issued watch and a non NASA issued watch just the case back? Or are there other differences?
the history, the provenance, that it has been used by an astronaut for mission critical training, and possibly flown missions to space, the rarity... er, oh, physical differences? No not really. 👎
80k? 😕 Exploiting the story to the max...
