Let's Not Overlook the $4,300 Gamemaster

If this were priced in Israeli Shekels (3.76 per USD), it might still be too high

: Indeed we seem to be facing a mid-30's Weimar-style hyperinflation
: on Heuers!
: And on this specific L5100, admittedly in the rarest green PVD but
: w/o box or papers and with a wrong back (it reads 510.501!) the
: thing has been going on for some time: and guess what? When it
: started about 2 months ago it was even higher with a starting
: price at 2699€. This is probably the 3rd or 4th round that
: this guy has been put up for sale. This is the proof that at
: these crazy prices watches have to be relisted again and again,
: because no-one is willing to splash out such amounts so
: overratedly. So I guess these prices will have to come down, but
: how long will it take?

: Of course this may be also due to the increased visibility that
: you've written about.

: I am just into Heuers and Omega Speedmasters, where a similar
: frenzy was set up by the Omegamania tematic auction but seems to
: have settled down a bit since then. What do other know that are
: also involved in Breitlings, Rolexes etc?
: Cheers.
