Time to own up. Who stole it from within my grasps.

@Diabolik knows what happened...

I had calls and emails sent every what way to get the watch, but alas someone took it from me!

I'm sorry that you missed out.
Wow, did that really sell for only 552,000 JPY? Around 4,000GBP?

Could it really be? Definately a current ad? Well done if true.

Of course.. it went sold out in my face while I was in talks to get it.

Some people wait a lifetime.... for a moment...

My guess: seller probably realized their pricing error during the frenzy and someone came in and threw down what it was really worth.

Do you mean to say that if the seller was talking to one person about the watch at $8K and someone called on the other line and said they'd pay $30K for it the seller would terminate the first caller?
Say it ain't so, Joe

Let's just say I actually called them up immediately when the damn "sold out" sign came out.

Tried my darnedest to offer more. Japanese dude tells me "SOLD OUT SOLD OUT".

I'd say that the full story will eventually surface.

What is the approx. full value of this model?

That one will push $18-20K if sold correctly. Beautiful example / amazing luck for whoever snagged it (if someone did).

There's no way that watch sold for 6k USD. The selller was just pulling at your heartstrings for fun.
