Are you shopping for one? As always, buy the best you can find. The good ones are not going to get cheaper.

I saw 35% but that may have included an internet bidding premium

Thank you! I had located the 890100/01 with slight differences, but couldn’t find this one.

No problem 👍
The 890100/01 is the one I have in my avatar.

Another 'interesting' one: a ref 22432 Girard Perregaux. Serial 785k. Bit pricey at EUR 12k.
