This looks like a good one - unless I'm missing anything?

Interesting

 

Isn't this the one from not long ago that had the bubbling on the hour subdial (as denoted by the fading on the minute subdial in the shape of a subdial hand)?

 

Hour register seems to have a shadow too. They probably should have left the chrono running when they put it under the sunlamp........

 

My thought exactly. Same lollipop with a hole in the lume.

it is the same watch.

 

so it is...!

Thanks all

 

Sold for 52k usd on ebay last time. Wonder what they are asking now

 

Seems to have a different bezel now though.

 

It's the same as the eBay auction. Less the bracelet and swapped bezel. I believe MB is asking $85-87k for it. Nice flip for them.

 

Seems like every dealer is getting to ride this one....

 

This 2998-2 starting to act like a fruticake

 

this watch has a known history thanks to this community: ebay to a new owner (changed the bezel, refinished dial), to Davidoff brothers and now currently with MattBain -- are they really asking $85?!
