Somewhat of an unconventional proposal for those p-car watch lovers out there.

I recently bought a Richard Mille RM004 split second chrono in Titanium. I have not worn it much as happens with these things and now thinking about selling it. Before I do that however, I wanted to see if there was any interest out there in a straight trade for a 2007-2008 GT3, as likely this is what I would get as a different toy. The idea came to me when someone offered to trade me a Bentley Arnage for it - not exactly my cup of tea.

If you know the watch you know the market value for preowned RM004 is right there with trading prices for low mileage 08 GT3. Watch is mint with papers, warranty, box, etc.

 

my watch has a built in digital calculator.... any takers?

J-K, LOL!

i must say that is a fine time piece you have there!

 

Whew. I am so glad I never developed an interest in watches. One ridiculously expensive passion is enough for me!

Good luck on the sale/trade.

 

Well, living in Manhattan the choice of expensive passions is somewhat limited to smaller objects. I've always found that next to cars, as far as mechanical things go, watches are a really good complementing option!

 

drive good cars must have good watches too, arguably.....

 

What is its lap times @ Sebring on Slicks????

if you would like I will trade my Timex cosmonaute for your watch. Yes it takes licking but keeps on ticking!

 

Depreciation on a Richard Mille is a lot less than on any modern Porsche. Odds are a Mille will increase in value over time. Nice watch!

 

Wow...I like watches and have some myself (of course none that expensive), but I never thought that a watch could actually trade for similar value as a 2007 GT3. Good luck with the trade / sale!

 

If you check out the Antiquorum auction site, you will find watches selling in the millions. Sr. Molinari, may I suggest you post in the "watches" forum as well?

 

Just did the google on that watch. New ones are selling for over $200k. whollychit.

 

Sean, you have to see one. All handmade and the micro engineering is astonishing. You also need the disposable income For those who appreciate the ultimate in mechanical things, the Mille watches are in the top rank along with serious complications from Patek Philippe and the boutique watchmakers who produce works of art in limited quantities. Last time I looked the Patek "Star" watch went for about 1.3 million at auction!!!!

 

Bob,

1.3 million ...could you post a pic of the watch?

 

My watch collection ain't chit compared to that Mille! WOW!!! I did get to try on a $145k Panerai at my dealer...very interesting...not in my budget.

 

i guess someone with a gt3 can benefit from a straight trade then.

can this watch do "beam me up scottie"?
