As a UK collector, I struggle a bit to convert the figures in the Price Chart to apply to me. Let me be crystal clear, I do not doubt that the figures are valid.
But if I buy a watch from the USA or Europe or Japan, pay insured shipping, then pay import duty?
The UK market buying prices seem to be much higher. Yesterday in a UK auction a 105.003 -64 was sold with a hammer price of GBP7,000 then GBP 2,016 auctioneers commission then say 150 insured shipping = $12,220. The watch would then need to be serviced, cleaned etc.
