Ashley, that's about right.. It is the kind of money for a 993 turbo here on a private sale ..... basic rule of thumb, find a Pcar from US or EURoPE (minus UK) and double it cost value by the time it hits Aussie shores (minus carbon tax of course)....... at least it's an Aust delivered orginal RHD ....lol....well that was the mkting/ justification spin that sold me anyway....
cheers

btw Ashley, a bit OT but from my last trip up to your neck of the woods, the Stallions of the italian variety was much more prevalent....... could not believe the number of times i saw a ferrarri and for that matter the lambos as well..... good eye candy for sure and I guess the weather plays it s part.

Now that is funny!! Try $50k for a complete set--if you could find one which you can't. One was for sale for $65k recently on 24Chrono and one sold at Antiquorum for $78k in 09'.
They are few are far between as they made only 50 of them to begin with.

I agree Porcelain Zeniths are very expensive and rare. If your lucky enough to see them for sale they go for 35k without anything but the watch and this was a year ago!

Yea I know what you mean lol my older brother owns a restaurant on Tedder Ave in Main Beach, and its the type of area where at times Porsche Carrera 2 owners will consider parking in a back street out of shame.

If you ever come up again should stop by, there are a lot of watch collectors on the coast

mk2 - std - 40-60k (b&P Extra)

NOS on any of those add 50%[/QUOTE]

(Chapter 4 line) 5512 60"s (15-25K) [probably too close to the ceiling]


NOTE: This price list is only meant to capture rough current market price ranges on an average for full B&P sets with dealers so do include dealer markups. It's intended to serve as a guideline to budding vintage collectors and in no way attempts to capture special watches eg: NOS, etc. that are sought after and hence might command higher prices. This list also doesn't capture prices for watches bought directly from the public or sold between collectors which depend more on negotiation,etc so are hard to capture. It also doesn't capture loose watches i.e without B&P, so markdown these prices to get approximate prices for loose watches. As always, please do your own due diligence before buying watches by scouring For Sale sections, Auction house prices, etc. of the various vintage Rolex vendors to gauge prices since they change depending on market sentiments and demand.
