Sold out? Try China!

The official price in China was RMB 45,400, later adjusted to RMB 48,800 Omega headquarters responded in late 2018 by relocating stock from China to other countries where it was sure to sell Whereas Chinese buyers could get a heavy discount on the official price of RMB 60,800, a second-hand one sold at Christie's for more than USD 10,000.
