in the antiquorum latest catalogue, the estimate for seiko white dolphin is higher than zenith el-primero, and equal to iwc cousteau, wow!!

To be fair, only 500 of these were made, and they all sold at or around the list price of Y210,000. There's likely no fall in value since, so it makes sense.... from that PoV.



From my PoV, that's bloody expensive!!! :P

Though, to be fair, the SBBN013's also already $2,000 at minimum, and if I actually liked the Stormtrooper edition, it'd be a different story... ;)

final price with premium, iwc hkd 23750, seiko dolphin hkd 13750

Sold below estimate... should've bidded! ;)

christies and antiquorum auctioned prices can be used as a reference but they arent really that good a reflection of the "market value"

many times its a one-off kinda thing



dont forget those ppl who attend these auctions have plenty of money to toss

they are indeed nice, but worth it or nt? somemore is quartz, nt auto movement.. :(

Enough people seem to be buying the Darth Tuna's at $2,000 that Seiko doesn't seem too bothered.... I'll stay with my 300m Tuna's, thanks! ;)

Unless I find a decent Goldie sometime.... :lol: :twisted:
