What time is it? Watches and horology

Yeah, need to hold the phone at arms length. Definitely wasn't breathing heavily at the time!

Surely this was a bargain for someone .. if £9.5 k for a wrist mounted timekeeper is ever a bargain

One of my buddies recently did one with some choice shopping channel jingles.

It works.

G-Shock day? I can’t remember

What's the normal price for these at the moment?

Chrono24 puts it at £2.5k more

Love that. Possibly more disco than @Velocio 's disco g-shock. Only one way to settle it - dance off in three, two, one...

Yep, I think they flirted around the £11k mark last year (Chrono 24 is generally optimistic in its pricing as they're all opening offers). That batman is considerably cheaper than last years market price if it's a full set etc. Interesting if the gap is the market, the seller's situation or an issue with the watch.

good work - that's brilliant! when are you adding the perlage and blue screws?

On Chrono24 you can add any watch to your “collection” and then you can see the estimated value in more detail - listing values are one data point they use but mainly it’s based on actual sales prices and offer values.

I thought my choice of "Eurphoric Grey" was embellishment enough tbh

This is the last 12 months for the “Batgirl” (BLNR on jubilee). It’s come down a lot but 9.5k is still well under market.

You mean this one?

Yeah, I love it. Totally useless in the daylight with the black screen... but absolutely superb in dark places.

Doesn't he mean the sliver one you have?

Think that's the one - I just remember you saying that you had a "clubbing watch" as it immediately made me regret my life choices that i don't also possess a specific watch for clubbing :)

Ooh i didn't know that about Chrono24 - good skills!

Is that graph saying that in July the batgirl was going for £17k? If so, that is cray cray.

Last July, yeah, just when it was first becoming available. It's not based only on actual C24 sale prices but I generally think the estimate ranges shown are pretty accurate.

Also, newness causes excitement… Batman on oyster has been a lot steadier (though still down over the course of the year). Check the 5-year chart though!

Wow

I bet if you superimposed the price of a pokey mid-terrace in Kensal Rise it would be pretty similar

Or KitKat chunky cost per gram of choc

But not Freddos, those fuckers have appreciated year on year over the last 15 years.

Dare I ask what my Sub's chart looks like?

Pre-owned 5y & 6m (not sure if this is with or without box & papers, or the median)
