Re: Sometimes, You Gotta Laugh . . .

: Someone on Chrono24 offering this "Heuer Carrera 12 dato
: Oyster triple calendar J.C.Killy case" . . . at 80,000 €
: (= $86,936).

: Some of the key features as follows: Reference No. = 2923 extremly
: rare screw back case Functions = Chronograph, Date, Weekday,
: Month, Annual calendar . . . [wow . . . "annual
: calendar" version of the V72] screw back case same as Rolex
: Jean Claude Killy, but much more rare the only 1 in the global
: market LOOKS SIMILAR TO REFERENCE 2543 BUT IT IS A 2923 . . .
: [thanks for the solid caps . . . now, I am convinced]

: And, of course, the key selling point -- "On Friday,
: December17, 2012, a Polex Ref. 6236 “Jean-Claude Killy”
: manufactured in 1960 went up on the auction block. Estimated at
: $120,000-180,000, it fetched an astounding $638,500".

: I will stake no claim to this one and leave it for others . . .
: maybe a bargain if you can grab it for 70,000 € ? ? ?

: [and in case any novice comes along and wonders what the giggling
: is about, we typically see these bought / sold in the $3,000
: range.]

Find me one in the global market for 3000, - and I'll pay you $ 5,000 - $ additionally commission, but you will not even find a single for 30.000, - $
