pre V box.... ist it really that expensive?
 

holy cow! i just saw a NEW old stock inner and outer box listed for 2650... and now its "SOLD" pending funds. really? 2650 for two boxes?? wow i dont know what to say.

When you got money coming out of your ___ I guess it doesn't matter.

Keep in mind, to some, $2600 is chump change.

For me, that is that Omega I want... :chuckle:

Good point. Its all in what "you" want to spend your money on... Im new to panerai (relatively speaking) and was just surprised at the price on some of this stuff... Id buy a logo w that money if it were me. But what do i know... Ha

Gentlemen, I have as well seen the post by VanniC, you need to remember those blue cardboard outer boxes are very rare and really complete a Pre-V as so many do not come with the outer boxes. He is selling both boxes which means he can up his price and one does not come without the other. Smart way to sell if you as a buyer want a complete package.

Besides that kind of money what he is asking is less than 10% the price of a good logo, less than 5% of the total price of a good 202/A and less than 7% of the price for a decent 203/A.

You may also consider that the person purchasing it is an avid collector that already has a watch but no box..

Or the person may be a seller that has a watch for sale but no box..? It does add more value to a collectible watch!

Hi Shade, All truth in what you say but this particular seller is VanniC, I have bought hard to find Pre V items from him myself. He is still searching for one item for me now that I cannot find where I live. On the other hand Vanni lives in Italy and has a lot of sources he can source to get the hard to get Pre V items. He is expensive but he does negotiate and is fair in his pricing. And the guy has a collection that I would give my only working kidney for, it truly is an unbeleivable Pre V collection.
