It is a very nice one, better than the last two offered at Auction - also most expensive Pro Version sold to my knowledge

It's really a very nice piece. I can imagine that Omega will make a re-edition of it in the near future.😗

Terrific result for one of the best 321 racing's that I've seen for sale publicly. I think the buyer will be very, very happy with this purchase. Hell, I was even doing the mental math to see how much I could move around to make a play for it...until I realized I couldn't.

Also some great pictures of it here: https://www.bexsonn.com/sothebys-sept-london-19/

Wow amazing. God only knows what one with an applied logo would go for.

Great price for a racing. Would love to see a grey come to market - been awhile since I have see one for sale.

This one was for sale on Instagram for 5k a few years ago. I was too late though finding correct hands would be impossible

A fantastic price for an outstanding watch. Lets see the knock-on effect for other top of the line Pro’s.

I have always thought that the grey racing was less valuable, but recently there have been no new ones come to market

The black is I think rarer, in spite of the numerous offerings of them in the last few years.

It is interesting also to wonder at the value difference between the black Non Pro vs the Pro dial.

The painted logo, Professional Dial is actually very interesting as the subdials are smaller. That means the small hands are also a different size to the standard dial. So the Painted logo dial is actually a different plate to the standard dial, where as the AML dial is possibly a production dial plate with a different surface design.

Note the different distances between the subdials on the painted logo and the AML

For $90450.00 shouldn't you get a nice 1039 bracelet?. Not a $300 aftermarket?.

If you bought it for the bracelet, then yes.

I suspect those worried about the bracelet dropped out of the bidding long before the high estimate was breached

I think buyer will be happy to pull out 1500USD for a 1039/506 combo with a grin in his face.
