This is ridiculous
I know bezel prices have gone through the roof but seriously $17k ,this one seems crazy, i know the tropicals fetch a premium .But the bezel is def the 2nd most important part of the watch imho afters the dial.

17k for what appears to be a service insert... Insane!

I'd like to think that they accidentally added two zeroes to that price. Check out the GMT Master insert listed at $5,000! I bought a very similar insert for under $300, a couple years ago. Whoever this seller is, they certainly have confidence! Maybe I should list my worn out Sperrys for $1000. They are, after all, vintage shoes!

This is ridiculous
Someone please tell me what the precise differences are between this $17k insert Vs newer ones - apart from some discoloration?

I am so fed up with the heat treated brown tone. So obvious they are treated and still you see them for sale. Who buys that shit?
