I can't believe there isn't a decent (I mean well taken) wrist shot or two of this watch anywhere!

I think it's a good reflection of the character of the watch and dial: too large and too much empty space. I'm not a fan.

Certainly a controversial watch and not for everyone.

The watch looks great to me and seeing it live in NY was awesome. My point is the "live" pics on the wrist that are floating around the internet haven't been well taken or simply don't show the watch for what it is... that's all.

You think this watch will sell for $5K on the used market??

Seems unlikely...

$5k-$10k OVER MSRP...

No one knows gray pricing at this point.

I don't know, looks really round there, which is always my worry on 42mm watches on thin leather straps.

For 25K over you might as well buy a 5524G.

Or a like new 5170 for 5k more lol

My guess is the first couple will be asking 35-40k and then it will settle around 25-30 range.

Sounds like everyone should read Pit Bull before buying/trading this watch/IPO.
