I paid $35 delivered from Russia. And honestly, I do not remember if that was a sale price or not because it's been enough years ago now.Despite all the cheap quartz watches found in Walmart, $140 really isn't all that much for a properly made manual wind watch these days. Even a plastic Timex will set you back nearly $120 for a quartz LCD with 24 hour display and only one choice of looks. So I probably wouldn't consider the price out of line for the Komandirski with multiple choices available.

A Bespoke 24 hour mechanical movement would be quite the piece of horology art. A conversation started indeed.
