Yep

Similar to the housing market when the bubble burst my friend is in FOGO mentality (Fear of getting out). LOL

He's so eager to liquidate the money he has into some watches. Keep bugging me everyday. LOL

I told him just sell it for $12.5 to the gray dealer and be done with it. Just never buy watches as investments again. Whats funny is he got offered $15k only a few months ago but he thought it will continue to go up.

SS watches have reached its ceiling imho. People realizing its just a watch and ain't worth these premiums.

It was FOMO now its FOGO. hahaha

Wouldn't be surprised if we are in the bull trap (there are still lots of people who deny the softening) and the new normal soon returns but lasts a little while longer than the chart suggests. Once mass fear from speculators sets in then it's all over though as you say...

You’re deluded if you think they’ll be 9k on grey market in next few years.
Any links to some in UK sellers at £11k? I have some friends who would pull the trigger at £11k

I sold my Batman about 6 weeks ago and it looks like it might have been the right decision money wise. That wasn’t the reason I sold it but it doesn’t hurt.
