#WATCH SUBMERGE 2013 ONLINE SERIES#

So, when the same thing is later released with a different numbering, and mostly in a larger quantity, it basically puts me off wanting something 'badly' and paying the premium for 'the limited series'.īut that's me, and that's all! I totally understand the ones, who fell in love with this watch and purchased one!

I don't think that's fair, because people don't just buy a 'limited edition' watch because they like it, but also because it's special because of the small produciton number. Which I would also admire, but not at this price! In addition, I was particularly disturbed by the fact that Ming lied for the second time after the moonphase watch, since in both cases they said that they would no longer produce such a watch. I am not a watch expert, I simply told my opinion on a watch. But I wouldn't be so quick to dismiss the price point.

This series, in terms of feel and design, is a marked improvement over the 17.06 and 17.09Īre they 1.5-3x better than what I paid for those? I can't say, but between the law of diminishing returns and does feel about right.

I've also owned a couple of different Ming's from the previous series that I paid quite a bit less for new. I can't convince you on value.most watches are crap on value (and I wouldn't touch the overly chunky, slab-sided Black Bay with your wrist), but I really like my SS 37.07 and as someone who owns and actively wears watches from a $1k MSRP to $15k and has handled a lot of others, the $3.5k feels about right the right price for the 37.07. Just for fun, they ask the price of a BB Harrods.ĮDIT: Hours after the release, it's still available to buy. I think, Ming goes into a wrong way if they try to enter this price range. I think it's fairly overpriced with an outdated casing and an actually unlimited (250 pieces.) quantity. Of course, if you buy the wear, you’ll never have to worry about that.īut there was demand for this watch more so than the last one they offered I think, which I had considered buying but the reserve button seemed available for maybe over a day (but I could be imagining that). And you might be right that they’ll be less than MSRP once people get their hands on them-like many many watches. It also might show flipping is dead as it wasn’t minutes (good). Yes it took hours - almost 2 - and they all were reserved. And that it was hours and still available to buy. I was just reacting to the fact you had described 250 as “actually unlimited” which I took to mean hard to sell that amount.

And for the ones who ordered it, I wish you to enjoy your brand new beauty :) For this price or even less you can purchase the former monolith version, which was manufactured only in 150 pieces.īut that's me. Not to mention the second hand price of the 'limited' 17.09 burgundy and blue. and soon after at a lower price then the MSRP, just like as we can see in the case of Kyoto. I'm not surprised they were able to sell 250 pieces, but I'd be very surprised if there weren't a dozen for sale soon.
