I saw this example go for <$11K USD at Christie’s last week. Is there something wrong with this example? Is the yachting bezel unoriginal/undesirable or something? Or did someone just get a great deal? https://www.christies.com/en/lot/lot-br ... 40AdobeOrg |

I guess your market estimate is too high. Retail yes but probably not auction. |

The bezel isn’t the standard one. |

The original discussion from 2014 here. The bezel was pictured in an advertisement, so it was a legit option. viewtopic.php?f=31&t=52916&hilit=2005+yachting&start=15 |

Seems like the Mk2 was definitively sold with a yachting bezel, but maybe the jury is still out on the Mk1? viewtopic.php?f=31&t=52916&hilit=2005+yachting&start=15 Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

nope. Jury isn't out (or as far not as it can be without a time warp). Mk1 were minutes or decompression Mk2 minutes or yachting Mk3 yachting only |
