Why hasn’t this Ed White been picked up already?

Well first of all I'm sure you know as well but it has a flat sweep hand on it...gonna be a pain to source an original lume-matching (or relume) 321 chrono hand. Some lume missing on hour hand too. Lume color of course is quite a matter of preference but this one doesn't do it for me. And as you mentioned too, no hippo on it...all this for 10k listing (near 11k) is not that good I think. That's just my very amateur train of thought.

Same with anthing really. A good one makes good money, a poor one doesn’t. There is a 2998 for sale on here at present for less than £6k. Does that mean 2998 prices have collapsed like the ray of sunshine above suggests? Probably not, just that those who can afford one buy a good one.

Just not a great example. The case is polished, caseback worn, bezel average-poor, wring sweep hand, unattractive dial lume.

It's slightly overpriced and it's low season in the watch world.
