There are lots, especially used, which is why I have so much trouble saving up for my grail Rolex. Once you get $2-3K of savings together, the allure of those entry to mid level pieces becomes too great... some of these are well under $3000. Such brilliant watches for relatively not much money. When you think about how much you can sink into a modded or franken replica, you can buy a sensational used gen for not much more (which is essentially how my hobby has progressed over the years, hardly any reps in my collection now)
