Sorry should have said $3.1m a bargain after all?

Wow - that's a lot of money!
Being that a platinum cased watch from a good manufacture can be had for around $50k and I think I am correct in saying that JLC and others have perpetual calendars in their range - is this not very, very expensive?
I know that PP is pretty much 'Number 1' but this still seems like a crazy amount of money! Would you have any less kudos for having a platinum, perpetual calendar JLC on your wrist for (guessing) 1/10th (or less) of the price?

There are only two Platinum 2499s, one is in Patek's museum, the other is the one Clapton owned, after buying it from "Europe's prominent collector".
I wonder if that'd be Tom Bolt?
That's principally the reason for it's price – extreme rarity.
Guess it had to be something... But still! A lot of money - LOL!I wonder if that'd be Tom Bolt?

Here's a shot of the ex-Eric Clapton's 2499. If I had a couple of hundred million, I'd have it...
The guys on the OP's link are on glue if they think they'll get 3.1m euros for it.

Only in the same way that £19.6m is a lot for a dirty, old car....
Listen you - it's entirely different! That's a well known race car with a great providence! Though I'd still have 100 other cars before it!Hope you had a nice trip, Dom - I didn't see Mark over Christmas so he still has my Tags, the scoundrel!
