Beware, the sanmartin.watch is not the official store. Its a san martin dealer. If anything goes wrong, I'm not sure they will honor your warranty. For piece of mind order directly from their website or from Aliexpress from a reputable seller.
I have been collecting since 2017 and I feel in general watches have become increasingly expensive in general. When I started a Sinn 556 was a 600 usd watch, now its around 1000 usd or more. All the new omegas are over 5000k and even Seiko has raised their prices (rip sarb and skx lines) .
It seems that watches are becoming more and more of a luxury, but don't know if it's because of greed, or because the pool of customers is narrowing so they need this to keep afloat.
But yes, luckily speculation has calmed a little bit.
