Maybe a slightly ambitious price?

Apparantly they go for $20-50k according to a quick Google search. Unless it's one of these super rare ones:

"Case 1: Rolex Double Red Seadweller Submariner No Valve. A prototype thin cased Double Red Sea-Dweller, without No Helium Gas Escape Valve , sold for US$237,600. How many of these were ever produced? I don't know, but now more than 30. That is the becuase Rolex only produced 30 cases of this type. These watches were never offered for sale to the general public."

You'd think when picturing a watch at that price that one would line up the bezel with the numbers!

^^ As mentioned, $20-50k would probably be a good estimate.
For it to be in 6 figures, it needs to be the one mentioned above. Generally referred to as the 'patent pending'. smile

Piccies!!!! biggrin

Sounds like it may be a 'patent pending' -

- unless it really is a 'pattern pending', in which case it is virtually worthless but I may be able to shift it on...
