    Wondering why people with no interest in watches are on a watch forum?

    What does “Fawned” mean in this context?

    I meant it as fallen in grey/flipper sale price.

    I'm not bright, so was probably the wrong word to be fair!

    Well done, you’ve just invented a new “rollie” word.
    “A Fawned Sub”

    Like a spider dial but not as crap?

    This is more USA based I assume, where they factor in adding of state tax etc.

    Here a milgauss is £7700

    Having a little look around, I’m finding no recent examples anywhere close to £7700…. WF are typically in £11-12k, chrono is typically in £9-10ks,

    Cheapest I’ve found is an unknown year white dial with no box or papers for £8k….

    I get these prices are over inflated etc etc, I don’t need schooled on that.

    However where are all these for under list at greys?

    Southampton Laings is the same. They have a nice 'exhibition' set to try on etc, but yes, appointment needed!
