Excellent lineup this week! By the way, another fellow collector and myself were looking at the 6145-8050 on bracelet and noticed the end links weren't genuine (correct bracelet code not stamped on them). FYI.

Trying to bid for first time - is it normal my bid on Buyee isn’t reflected on any page, even though it says I’m the highest bidder ? Lol

The 5645... no dial text at bottom? Looks like just the angle ?

Yeah I wondered about this. I *think* you can just about make out that there is some text between the 5 and 6 indices. The texture of the dial makes it really hard to be sure though.

Yeah I concluded I could see the word Japan haha - but only bid up to 300k.

Dial code is definitely there on the -5000.

I remember the last pyramid Arabesque was flagged here after failing to sell the first week around. Wonder how it goes this time. Any idea of relative production of 3-facet versus pyramid glass arabesque?

Looks to be something around 10:1 vertical:pyramid.

Wow that’s high I would’ve guessed 3 or 4-1. Is it the difficulty in making the crystal you think or deliberate? Were they priced the same?

Priced the same. I guess customers who liked the faceted crystals prefer them to be really obviously faceted!

Watching the 44 late dial to try and gage just how many chumps like me are out there
