More than $20k USD for a quartz clock?

The world added 56 million millionaires during the whole pandemic. There needs to be way to spend that money.

20K for FPJ clock sounds reasonable to me given how well, like very very well, FPJ’s have been performing in auctions.

At this point, it wouldn't surprise me if someone paid $20k for a Journe clock made out of legos.

Crazy those things are only 2k. Honestly it felt a bit cheap when I played with one otherwise was going to buy it.

Had one of these for quite a few years, and yes the WT function worked. After five years I changed the batteries, easy stuff. Traded it for a rg Daytona a while back.

I had the opportunity to buy one when they were released a few yers ago, but I didn't like the 3rd hand for the alarm.
Crazy indeed. No way I would pay more than retail for that, and certainly not 20K!
