Played golf with a guy this week, never met him before. In the bar after the round we are chatting away with a mutual friend and the subject of Watchfinder is mentioned in the conversation.

He told me he bought a nice watch from them six years ago. I enquire, what model. A Daytona he said.

Hmmm very nice I say, he said yes I’m really pleased with it I paid £6500 approx

I’m thinking £6500 six years ago that seems too good to be true.

I ask if he knew what year it was, later that day he texted our mutual friend it’s a 1984 full set.

I am now on Chrono24 looking at Daytona’s manufactured in that year. Anywhere from 80 to 200$k.

I texted my mate back, to say is this a wind up?

My mate called me to say, I thought you might say that, he is a renowned BSh*tter....

Why would you do that?
