    Even if I chop 10% off the value of this v72, I can retire today according to my fidelity retirement calculator. Like, right now.

    Sooooooo, screw you suckers!!! You's should Of been hording these v72's like I did instead of those stupid Rolex GMTs and ugly ass speedmasters.

    Suckers!!!!!!

    Adding further absurdity, this version is only 35mm IIRC.

    Am I missing something? I mean sure $8k isn't a bargain on it for sure, but in a world where crappily printed Titus Calypsomatics are $8K watches I don't really feel that this one is that far out of line. Don't even Clebar Val.72 go for around $3-4K?

    Unless I'm missing something as well,, there's nothing about this watch that deserves a conservative 400% premium over approx retail value.

    Perhaps the seller Is looking to rope in a "low baller" @ 3 or 4 grand?

    Otherwise, I'm stuck somewhere between amused and confused...

    * edit

    I realize all good condition v72's have done well price wise in this latest watch bull market.

    But, keep in mind that 3 or 4 short years ago you could buy this watch by the handful for 7 or 800 bucks. Do you really think 1000% appreciation is reasonable for a common reference in such a short period of time?

    Besides, I ain't that lucky lol

    Worth maybe $2,500 USD at the most, IMHO.
