I think Govberg had a used one for $36k, maybe 6 months ago.
Not sure what they would pay for it though. |

Of all the Black Labels the higher end references seem to hold up best, that includes the Resonance. For sure dealers and sellers ask a premium, but I wouldn't be 100% certain the Black Label is so limited so perhaps not best to hang your hat on that. On the plus side at the moment the black dial is probably the most attractive out of all the regular production Resonance so that likely supports the price some. If buying new keep in mind that the current generation Resonance is not the most popular, people seem to prefer the original dial configuration, and also note that a new Resonance model is imminent. |

Based just off my secondary market observations over the last couple years, Black Label pieces tend to hold their value better than normal pieces - but not significantly so, and it also seems model-dependent.
The only FPJs that seem to hold value well are the actual limited production pieces (i.e., serial numbered as such, e.g., XX/99, X/69, X/5, etc.) and even then, there are exceptions... |

You are correct, I missed the Resonance, what I saw was a time only on a leather strap.
