Mike, there is no sensitivity on my behalf. I am as interested as anyone in value retention and on making the best choices with my hard earned money. However, if every thread distills down to only being a value discussion we miss out on the reason we all have this passion - the pieces themselves. This thread, as defined in the title was to simply express the enjoyment of an amazing Patek piece in pictures. No more, no less. Now I realise threads grow and take on arms and legs so the discussion will always develop but it would be nice for once to not get straight down to the pounds, shillings and pence.
I note you have said the piece is not for you and is too large - understood. But you then ask a leading question and ask if the price is at a reasonable price point and if the piece will need to be discounted to sell - I can say hand on heart I wish it was less expensive (as to is it a reasonable price point then I would say yes) and can confirm that I will not get a discount. You say your not trolling and I'm sure your not - you do however already have a beautiful Salmon dialled limited Patek piece and ....

Disclaimer: I like you too Mike!
