    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

    Got some patina, and the sweep doesn't always return to 0 perfectly always, but I love mine. I believe that both crowns are original

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