Very cool that's the watch making school signed this! Would love to own that piece but also suspect it'll end up selling for a bit more.

Haha, further proof of this. It'll sell for many times that, without a doubt. Caught myself for a second feeling the interest generated on the fallacy it'll sell for anywhere near what they listed, especially for a 2-tone.
