Auctions are so often so surreal and plain rip-offs… it is just annoying (take that trashy 1 Mio Submariner without bezel as a glowing example of WTF, dudes)
It can be for the rich. But not always. Sometimes families just want to sell to liquidate grandpa’s watch collection. At times one can find value.
This type of auction is for the rich where money is just a number…. none of these tips matter.
