Omega Auction 3 watch for $123,000AU

Guys,

Can you guys believe this???? Excuse the quality of the pics got it from the newspaper yesterday. This is what's stated on the bottom of the picture..

CHECKLIST FOR BOND WANNABES: WATCH? TICK
" Three Omega watches - two worn by actor Daniel Craig during the filming of Casino Royale, and one, right, worn by Pierce Brosnan in Tomorrow Never Dies - are pictured at a preview at Antiquorum auction house in Geneve, Switzerland. The watches, expected to reach $123,000 EACH!!!, will be the highlight of an Auction later this month"

DRSD anyone???? White shark anyone???? Paul Newman anyone????? Hell I can think of a lot of watches to buy for that amount of money $123,000 EACH....Dammmnnnn

Let me know what you guys think



Pat

Buying celebrity owned stuff is a trap. Once the item has been owned by someone other than the celebrity the magic seems to dissolve...
Try selling JFK's golf clubs today for anything near what they brought at the Kennedy Auction at Sotheby's several years back...

Guys, this belongs in the non-Rolex forum. I'll move it now.

Also, for the benefit of members with lower bandwidth, please keep the images to an acceptable size. That one's way too big, Charles.
