I agree with everything said...except... a 2446sf mareograph/solunagraph
In super mint condition. 15-20k super cheap. I think it goes 25k pretty fast and maybe more. Maybe an hour instead of 15min. :-)

: I'm saying that the market decides and public sales are the easiest
: indicators of value.
: so yes: if a watch is snatched at 15 the next will not be cheaper.

: beware: not all watches have the same value. condition, condition
: condition.
: the compressor case must me unpolished and dent free and thus have
: razor sharp lugs, for me that's part of the allure.
: also the metallic paint on the dials of these Mareograph/Seafarers
: is prone to flake so carefully study the details of the watch
: you're being offered.
