lol... hopefully you were not one of the two guys who came in about the time i was leaving. They were legitimately sketchy. Im usually not one to judge, but those two would make me nervous running into them on a deserted street at night.

It didn't go for the $37.5K they were asking but not too much less

An AD here in Hong Kong has just sold a yr 2017 5711 for US$38k, and he got it sold in less than 1 week. I got a 5711 blue and think the current price is nuts! But believe it or not, there’re actually people paying that much for it

I’m patiently waiting for the call. Hopefully by the end of year or early next year. I can’t wait to get it on my wrist.

If you purchase 15k worth of jewelry from govberg, you might be able to purchase the watch from them for 23k

I am so glad I am not in love with this watch. I will use my next € on a watch that has a far better value for money logic.

Why would that be? If you are in the business it would be ordinary income not capital gains. But any collectible held for more than one year (less than a year ordinary income) that increases in value is taxable. Now whether people comply is an entirely separate matter. See IRS topic 409. Edit: saw you are in UK. Same principle but I think they have to be worth more than £6,000. |

Here in the UK CGT is not applicable to mechanical watches, however if someone is in the business of selling watches I don’t mean a shop but someone who is clearly buying and selling as a sideline they will be liable to declare profit and get taxed as such. It’s classed under ‘possessions with limited lifespan’ |

Its a bargain at that price. No way to get one from an AD. If you want it now, its a good move.
