Can someone help me figure out what the deal is with this candlestick? Currently selling for $4k. Ordinary step base, with a W.E. transmitter and modified cup. The dial is a rare sunburst, but it's incomplete with the mechanicals removed from the back of the dial. I figured at best this candlestick would go for a few hundred dollars. Complete dials with no damage have been going for less than $2k. What am I missing?

No last second snipes on this auction. Whomever bid the $4,150 2 days before the auction ended won the phone for that price.
Our multi-bidding friend "g***0" ran that bid, which must have been a very high bid, up to $4,100 with about 8 various multiple $100 dollar incremental bids which had to make the winner happy . . . ;)
Even "g***0" gave up trying to find the high side some 12 hours before the auction ended.
wds,
WOW!!! I knew the dial was high , but not that high!!! Here's the pic of the missing piece. stub
