$79500 HK = $10,247 US, for the GMT II Blue/Black
Is that what they are going for in the US?

Thanks guys glad you liked the pics... I wouldn't change my Smurf with any of those watches. The WG SkyD is even more awesome in person and pics dont do it justice as with the Smurf... The Smurf just pops out and stands out from a crowd of hundreds watches as you can see from the pics.

The question is: What is your new grail? The WG Skydweller I assume.

My impression when I saw the pictures was like the rest here, what an inventory, what a shame it's presented this way.. POOR marketing!!

That makes the SS YMII about $20,430

HKD $158,500 = USD $20,430
