Imagine the value if it had a crooked Tiffany stamp.

Since it was for charity the sales price was much higher. Take away charity angle and I’m not convinced it breaks the records.

Same here, not a good looking watch, but guess that’s not the point of this watch anyways.

Personally I much prefer the steel 5016.

I’m still wondering how does the buyer of the Paul Newman feel right now, that someone overdid his record (unless it’s the same buyer?)

Of course not, I was kidding. Probably patek backed the buyer perhaps

But how cool would it be if Rolex did? Maybe Patek bought it.

Ninja is over it... I was just hanging with the Tiffany peeps yesterday... the diamond people are excited about the potential acquisition. And I’ve been told by other watch AD’s that if LV buys Tif and u can kiss the stamp good bye. Btw I don’t wear the watch anymore. Too much drama for me. My time is worth more than that of the fan boi’s so don’t reach out again and I’ll leave it be. Thanks.

Thanks to my friends for point this out that I was not clear...


Should read... for the Tiffany Kelly fanbois. Don’t reach out again and I’ll leave it be. Otherwise I’ll escalate the shit out of this and trust me I’m more than capable of escalating it. I’m not that nice when I don’t want to be. Peace.

This is absolute masterpiece. The Daytona doesn’t even have a date function. Can’t compare the two IMO

@Fat_ninja: wear the watch, and appreciate it for what it undeniably is: a tremendous and spectacular watch. So enjoy it, with a vengeance. Cheers,

Personally I would take a Paul Newman Daytona over this Patek any day. The PN (especially black dial 6239) is the king and the most beautiful watch ever made, imo.

Newman Daytona was a mass-produced piece, this one is a unique creation. Not a fair comparison, imho.
