Spinnaker Fifty Phantoms second hand?

I completely missed the hype around the spinnaker Fifty Phantoms - I'm a huge fan of the fifty fathoms and I would love to have this playful piece on my wrist. (Image is sourced from Google search).

If I understood the available information right, there was a limited run of 670 pieces (or was ist 670 black and 670 mist pieces?) and then they offered a dark blue variant for 50 hours of which they sold 2200 pieces.

Looking around on eBay and stuff I cannot seem to find a single piece without more than double the retail price.

Are there any tips on how to aquire one of these pieces or is anyone willing to sell theirs for a reasonable price? I'm in the EU (Germany).

Yeah and those were the cheapest offerings. Granted, I don't know if they sell at those prices, but I cannot find them any cheaper.

Congrats on yours, looks lovely. I would maybe try a grey FKM rubber strap to make the mist grey a theme.

IMHO (having owned 2), no Spinnaker is worth double the retail, or anywhere near double, regardless of hype.

GL on the hunt 🤞

Hoping for another release in the future, I want the ghosts! 👻

For reference the base variant is the Fleuss

Which retails for ~$300 with the NH movement.

As far as I’m aware, the the only major change to the Fleuss to make it a Phantom is the dial.

Cheers.

I just bought a fifty phantoms blue on accident.. two days ago I found one on eBay for 400€ starting offer and 900€ instant buy (don't know the exact term in english). Then it had 9 observers and zero offers. I put in the minimum offer of 400€ and left it at that. 20 minutes ago I was notified that I got it. There was no other offer than mine. New and full set with stickers on for 400€ 😂.

I'm happy to join the gang very soon!
