Yes not bad but not great considering the provenance, of Vietnam and SDJnr. This was a nice example and the reserve was not that relevant...on the downside not all was as it seemed with the details, inc no toolno33 on the rear case, not a deal breaker perhaps, but an oddity for sure...(lovely dial though)

: Details later, but the news of the moment is that this
: transitional Monaco has just sold for $18,000 (not including any
: commissions, etc.), in an Antiquorum auction, being held today
: in New York City.
: I would estimate -- in very rough numbers -- that this is
: approximately twice the value of the watch itself (in other
: words, $9,000 for the Monaco and $9,000 for the provenance /
: Sammy Davis, Jr. connection) . . . maybe it's $8,000 / $10,000,
: or somewhere in that range.
