    Must have been someone on here to have been allocated that number surely?

    But is it more unique than 008 or 156 or 64?

    To you, probably not or you wouldn't be asking. To many people, yes.

    Pedantically, it's no more 'unique', but possibly more valuable (to some).

    My TZ watches have the same last 3 digits of their serial number, it's my birth day and month

    But only 9 bidders, and if you just count those bidding over 350, it was just 4

    I think people will spend the money because there are a number of positive reviews from YouTubers and that the current purchasing process seems to require more the luck of the man who broke the bank at Monte Carlo than patience.

    I'm sure Eddie will get on top of the latter issue in time, but if you want an Everest (or other TF watch) now, buying a new one (as with some other Microbrands - Helm got a big backlash for this and now have a waiting list) is almost impossible.

    I'd love to get a Caribbean when they're launched, but the days when you could just order up when and if it suited you seem to be gone, for now, at least.
