FPJ prices on the secondary is a result of pure collusion with a small number of gray dealers and FPJ corporate. This is well publicized, I’ll never buy an FPJ new or used for this very reason. [nt]

Wow!
Wow! I purchased my RD Sympathy 18 months ago for ~$9K (which seemed like a lot at the time) and today I see the same watch posted for sale for over 3 times what I paid. Doesn’t change a thing for me, this is a permanent keeper in my collection, but I am ...
Me as well.
There is 2 chances out of 28 that yours or the one posted was mine. Wish I still had mine. Enjoy in the best of health!
I noticed too. The “tastemakers” on IG and elsewhere have determined these RD deserve more attention.
I wish they hadn’t, as I’d have liked to pick one up at some point. Beautiful watch.
Excectly my thoughts too.
Would love to add a beautiful RD like this but prices are going up very quickly
It is a very nice watch for sure.
Not 3x nice, but that’s just my opinion. Enjoy it! Cheers, John
Roger Dubuis at his best!
It is a pity that the ethos of the brand has since changed. These watches had always been undervalued and were pretty expensive when brand new so I could never figure out why their used values were so low. Yes, some of the complicated ones had reliability...
Richemont could do a lot to reinvigorate RD if they looked back, not forward.
The brand today is lost
Great taste...
I find these watches to be quite beautiful and I am honored to own and maintain one. One of the advantages of owning one is that they are, truly, rare pieces. For his early watches, only 28 were made per version. ...
I can see this only as a positive sign
This type of upward momentum *I would think/hope/pray* will cause Roger Dubuis to at the very least add a heritage line to their catalog, perhaps restoring the nicest pieces of their past such as this. Congrats on the pickup and especially at such a relat...
When
My compliments. RD is on an interesting route. Seeing only good design which contains originality, creativity, and prosperity. While the Sympathy i read, uprises in value, it is remarkable. Perhaps i never wear a RD, but see what RD does, it is not bad.
Silly question
Perhaps a silly question but why are 10,11 and 12 in black the other numbers in red?
Interesting little watch, but the market has been a bit feverish I feel
Frankly, I think that only a handful of dealers/collectors are behind the pump up in price, not just RD, but in FPJ for example... Unfortunately, there is very little transparency and nobody regulates the watch market. Nice watch nonetheless
RD probably getting the attention these pieces deserve
RD’s gamble when he went out of his way to put his name on the watch deserves recognition in my opinion. Too often people focus on the watch itself but not enough credit is given when someone attempts to change the landscape of the brands. This was rememb...
