IWC Doppel Posted May 18, 2012 Share #1 Posted May 18, 2012 Advertisement (gone after registration) Crikey............. £8,050 of boxed and perfectly finished hardware in chrome or black finish in a nicer box,book, different finish and a strap an extra £9,950 Sir If you want something more speical, with a handmade bag then £18,715 of hardware is now a small extra £17,285.......... Not that I want one, but if I did I'd feel just a little extorted, over double for the same with a tweaked case, leather covering and nice packaging Hermes Edition.....

Paul J Posted May 18, 2012 Share #5 Posted May 18, 2012 Not so sure about that. At least this one actually looks different. It has a totally different top plate and lenses. You're getting something that is different. The cost of designing and making that top plate and lens rings in particular would not have been cheap at all. Also the Hermes alliance comes at a price. Believe it or not but you can spend a lot more than £50K on a Hermes bag. So maybe the Hermes people would actually argue you are getting a free Leica.

That was a lot more than any Leica at that time. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
