Two Daytonas: Shockers / Stars (??) of the Auction

In Response To: Re: Patrizzi Auction Results: Three Simple Questions ()

If you are a "little shocked", then I will admit to being a "lot shocked" by these two Daytona sales. When I saw these results, and studied these photos again, I wondered what had happened in the auction room: two or three bidders, each determined to "win", regardless of the real value? newbies comparing the prices to Daytonas of the Rolex variety?
Let's see what the next nice one fetches, on EBay or a dealer site. My guess: the sales price will start with a dollar sign "$" and a "1". But who knows . . . maybe this marks the break-out for the Daytonas.
