Hmm. Yeah. $190K for 5711s has not been the case for a while...

The writers for watches and "Pursuits" at Bloomberg often are out of their depth. Or have a very shallow understanding.

Yes and agreed with everyone here!

I think that in this community, the consensus is that the current state of the market is regrettable. Not because we’re not crypto bros or whatever, but because folks here are interested in watches not as investments and signifiers of wealth, but as techn...
Amen.

5711 : 240? 190? Ahahahaha
By: alexxelor : August 1st, 2022-06:38
virtual values and I have never believed. a used 5711 for me is not worth more than 70k , the same a platinum Daytona. My 16710 M series in blister is worth more.
Well, let's see.

The prizes are still crazy and out of this world. Anyway a good development.

When I can walk into a boutique and get a Rolex submariner, Daytona or other sports model, at RPP. Not too long ago, this was the right way to buy Rolexes and boutiques actually threw in some discounts too. Ok time to wake up to the new reality 🤣
Exactly!

This article is heavily biased...
By: patrick_y : August 1st, 2022-07:38
Article seems to assign a lot of blame to crypto. And is forgetting consumer sentiment, the fact that there's a big Russo-Ukrainian conflict going on, high interest rates, and other factors outside of crypto. Poorly written. Designed to get eyeballs and l...

The editors at Bloomberg would argue, "If you can do better, you're welcome to write for us, otherwise, we make do with the best we've got!"
Right! Journalism is just not as reliable as before.

Bloomberg likes to get the blood going with Patek Philippe is on sale articles. They're full of surprises! You're right, I shouldn't expect better. But Bloomberg, NYTimes, even CNN used to be reasonably good. Now CNN is filled with typos. Bloomberg's numb...

I know of a crypto millionaire who bought a GT3. Doesn't know how to drive it. But he's thrilled! And I guess I should be thrilled for him. And I shouldn't criticize him for not knowing how to drive a 911. It's not easy to drive a 911 well. Although the l...

Driving 911 are extremely difficult.
By: patrick_y : August 3rd, 2022-18:08
The earlier 911 models such as the 996 and 997 chassis were fickle machines. If you didn't feather the throttle mid turn, you could spin the car. And one thing that's unique about 911s is that you can actually start getting on the throttle super early mid...
And sadly, all my knowledge is useless now...
By: patrick_y : August 4th, 2022-19:30
Newbies in modern 911s are coming fairly close in lap times as the experienced 911 drivers in the same modern cars. Why? Because since the 2012/13 model year, the 991 generation of 911 has these super advanced computers that really know what the car is ca...
