Agree totally and to be honest, the result did not surprise me too much! I know from two other 3. Gen Rindt 2446 - one sold for 13,4k, the other for 14k Euro,
both in very nice condition, but not perfect. They will go higher and higher, and for me, they deserve !

Thanks!

: Dial and lume looks superb, suspect once crystal polished it will
: look very nice, bezel nice too.

: Maybe a record for a non mint std 3rd exec, at least on eBay
: anyways. I'm sure transitional have achieved more but imo the
: value of the std 3rd exec should be double of the 2446c, with
: the rarer transitional a chunk above the Rindt. So if a very
: nice 2446C sold recently for $9k then I suspect all the screw
: backs will likely rise. Where this leaves the 1st execs is
: anyones guess...
