I'm with you on that one. I'd have to have Powerball-type money to even consider it.
I certainly get the attraction to the Pre-V stuff, but not in a way that would justify those crazy prices.
I'll stick to buying 2nd-hand A-J series watches. Most of the new stuff leaves me cold, other than some of the pieces like the 449 or 372, the only "modern" piece I would really consider is the 356 "Dirty Daylight".
I'm looking hard at the 027A that Bruce has on his website. I'm thinking I could get it somewhere a little below the $7K ask. There's something about those early center-seconds PAMs that I love.
