capice Posted January 20, 2011 Report Share Posted January 20, 2011 Saw this on W-C. VDB I am really curious what was the story of this watch Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Whatever123 Posted January 20, 2011 Report Share Posted January 20, 2011 Interesting indeed! I was always wondering about the prices of those VDB builds. I mean, they're reps after all and there are guys who spend thousands... I don't get it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Emperor's new clothes are shown up for what they are. Overpriced reps sold by scammers. There must be a lot of people waking up today to the 'investment value' of their VDB watches being virtually nil. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kbh Posted January 21, 2011 Report Share Posted January 21, 2011 if that is proven, then it's a bloody shame but have you seen proof for this yet.... I guess you haven't read the entire thread? It's spiced with A-1 sauce and lots of proof. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very sad for the people who bought into the fairy tale. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
