William, there is much to be learned from and appreciated in WIStory. There are of course many more advanced and complex modern movements and constructions but we all must appreciate the what has come before. After all some of the most complex and expensive timepieces of our era employ the toubillion which dates from 1795. For many the history and relative scarcity of a humble timepice make it most desirable.

This sub appears to have a traceable provenance and limited availability. But like Oscar said everything seems too perfect.

Having said that it would be sketchy at best to spend the now $63K on something from the Bay. Is this watch worth $63K? Well apparently so...
