Remarkable indeed - "Incredible beyond belief"
=============================================================================
In an unexpected turn of events, a top-condition Omega Flightmaster watch from 1974, complete with its original set and recently revised by Omega in 2019, was sold for 2500 euros. The sale took place at the popular show "Bares für Rares", where experts appraise items and potential buyers bid on them.
Initially, the owner of the watch had valued it at 1100 euros, a figure that was significantly lower than the expert's estimation. Sven Deutschmanek, the appraiser for the show, had valued the watch much higher, expressing his fascination for the piece. Although the exact value was not explicitly stated, Deutschmanek's expertise clearly surpassed the owner's initial valuation.
Deutschmanek was particularly impressed by the watch's originality and the fact that it had been overhauled by Omega, which added to its value. The Omega Flightmaster is a rare and less well-known model that displays two time zones and offers numerous technical features, making it a sought-after item for collectors.
Interestingly, Julian Schmitz-Avila expressed a desire to bid on the watch for 2500 euros. Gert Fischer von Mollard, the owner of the watch, announced that he would handle the negotiation, confident in his ability to secure a better deal. Despite the dealer's room showing great interest in the watch, no one was willing to pay more than 2500 euros.
After the sale, Gert Fischer von Mollard expressed his happiness about the day, suggesting that he was satisfied with the price he had managed to secure for his valuable watch. Barbara Fischer von Mollard, Gert's wife, agreed with his sentiment, expressing her approval of the sale.
In conclusion, while the actual selling price of the Omega Flightmaster was below the expert's estimation, it was still a significant amount for a watch of its rarity and condition. The seller and the expert both agreed that the watch was highly valuable and desirable, making it a worthy addition to any collection.
