Need Your Expertise on a 2008 Sub 16613LB Rehaut Serti Dial

Hey Guys,

I wanted to get your opinions on this watch, it is a 2008 Model which does not include the papers/documents. It does include a 3 year warranty and the box. The seller is asking for ~$10000, does that seem reasonable/good buy for this exact watch or should I pass on this? Thanks in advance!!

Aftermarket parts likely. I really never trust Serti dials to be 100% authentic. A lot of them are "refinished" AKA fake.

Not saying this one is, but I dunno. Pearl looks a bit funny as well. Could be an aftermarket insert.

Hands look very flat.

Watch is fine (including dial and insert). The pearl on the insert looks to have an imperfection, but that is not uncommon.
Price seems a bit on the high side IMO. However, the later models (no-holes case, gold cladding on buckle, etc.) do command a premium.
Really only matters if it's "worth it" to you.

For that price, why not just buy a slightly used 2015 tt /sub?
