There are a few aspects of the watch that have prevented me from going for it so far :
1) Price Tag : 11500 USD from Pam Dealers [ not AD mind you ..but get AD stamped papers ] .. not a big issue since the package is good for the money if you see it as a definite keeper.
2) Polished Bezel : I hate polished surfaces and even the new ones I ve seen at ADs come with some marks on the bezel .. MEANS .. the watch goes from BNIB to NM in no time at all the moment you strap it on for a couple of days.
3) Resale : Resale of this watch is good but not stupendous. Most NM examples go for around 9500 .. which means close to a 2000 dollar loss at resale .. [ a bit much for my liking ]
So.. The IDEAL SCENARIO ..
