...the watch came out end of 2017, but delivery started just beginning this year. There are 27 of YG, 90 of the red gold and 145 of WG - of course in this order hard to get. Many collectors ordered when announced and get their pieces now.
Collectable? Definitely in terms of rarity and the special complication. If in terms of value, that shouldn‘t be the point!
I’m happy that I got a rose gold one and love it - absolute understatement!!

I come from a little different point of view, I love many watches, most every day I see something I would buy that I like so I focus on two things, what I want (love) and value. I know most on this forum don’t have that view but usually value ( or deal or...

Three options A: you’re a collector, buying the watch to admire it and wear it on special occasions only, then why worry about future value? B: you’re a trader, concerned with future value than you wouldn’t wear it because you want to avoid every risk of ...

Thanks for the laugh and guidance! I am certainly not B because I wear all my watches but do strive to keep them in excellent condition. A does not make sense to me as life, desires and taste changes so how would one know they would be keeping the watch f...
