Seen on the market some months ago: Rolex Double Red Caramel Seadweller 1665 MK II.
Picture to be credited to Only Vintage Watches.
A watch which is still missing in my vintage Rolex collection. When it comes to chocolate or and caramel dials, the 1665 is one of the good ones.
And this one was just marvelous.
Best,
Nicolas
Yes sir, just only change the steel bracelet in to a brown leather strap with an honey-colored braided stitching ... the best
Juan
The problem is not to find the strap, but to fund the watch. :))) [nt]

the main beef and problem I have with vintage Rolex are the unjustified and beyond insanity prices. Will that Rolex bubble explode? I do hope so
The main thing as I explained in another thread is when watch weblog and auction houses kill the collector market by inflating values like 20 times!!! Is this watch wotrh between 35000-50000$? No, it doesn't, it is not that rare. The greedy sales persons , greedy watch web bloggers and greedy auctioneers are to blame for that. Now, only a very few of fortunate and ultra wealthy collectors can buy one.
Well, rarity is one thing, market rules are another thing. If 1 million people want this watch, the market will dry up quickly. The price will go up the same way. [nt]

Nicolas... I agree
There is absolutely nobody who can definitively say what something is "worth". Georges, much as you are a nice guy and all, you just cannot make any rational argument telling the "market" that it's pricing is wrong. I have traded financial assets now for 30 years. The guys who went bust always believed that they were right and the market was wrong. Tastes. Opinions. Influencers. Rarity is not the issue. I have produced far less works of art than Picasso yet his stuff sells for way more! And, the art world and auction houses can similarly be called "influencers".
The market is what it is. That DRSD has as much chance at falling to Eur 25k as it does rising to Eur 75k.
