For the market price of a new ceramic Daytona

[Chester01]

Yes, well people do not often buy using reason and there are very few of us here in the forum that can look at the Daytona objectively and evaluate it in the pros and cons. Most fall into the gushers and the haters. Same with football and politics by the way. At any rate you make an excellent point, there are many that would love to overspend so they can post on their Insta about the Daytona and enjoy the hype. Too bad if they look down to actually time something with the chrono, it can’t be read. How many may say, well I don’t use it to time things, that’s the sillyness of overspending for a watch, that does not actually perform its task very well. But to each their own. I owned 2 and use chronographs as part of my job as the tools they were intended for and found them lacking. If someone want to spend 50k, good for them.

Not in the USA. The top 0.01% has a wealth starting over $100M, a Rolex is peanuts. For normal people they would think spending $10k is crazy for a watch.
