Great question!

I did not 'love ' this dial when it debuted...
But at just a glance a few moments ago, I thought... what is this fabulous Patek?
So there is your answer.
A few years... big uptick in popularity and value...
But if I had to 'explain'...
One issue is still, IMO, the so-called Patek 'stamp' on the movement... it is and always will have no meaning... a cop can not police himself...
And this fake stamp came about around the time of this watch...
So there is 1 'deep collector' reason why it is lukewarm...
That 'stamp' at the time was controversial...
One other reason may be...
The Romans...
There had not been Romans recent to this release on a chrono...
That's about it! But as I glance at it... my instinct is... 5-10 years... a huge classic in line with any big Patek
