Celebrities and their IG posts are too blame

Ok then what did you learn from the person who bought a $19k OP about how to make your money work for you?? Enlighten us.

Unless you don’t care either and are not “smart” according to you.

Not sure what you’re saying.

Regardless of whether you like it or not, the underlying market principles are identical. If people are willing to pay $20,000, then that’s the market price; that’s what the market will bear.

Doesn’t matter if it’s Bitcoin, real estate, a work of art or a turquoise blue dial OP. Consumer demand drives the prices. That’s how the markets work.

I'm not sure who you are arguing with. Nobody is disputing the reality of market prices. People paid premiums on f'n Saturn cars and Beanie Babies at one time too.

It’s all good.

Personally, I’m not even sure I’d wear a turquoise blue dial watch.

I thought you were asserting that market forces for watches are different than fine art, but it’s all good.

I bought a OP41 Silver dial, which is not the most popular color. My AD offered it to me last December and I bought it. I really like it at, and at $5,900 it was a no brainer. At its current price of over 10K, it would not be a consideration. Too many other great watches for what these are going for now IMHO

They only need one Mug, you just need to make sure it's not you. It's madness, absolute madness. Stay safe.
