I was lucky enough to get my hands on a #59 Barracuda (pre-owned but looking spanking new).  I love it and it is the favorite watch in my small collection.  Nonetheless, I don't consider it any more a limited edition than the Sea Devil or Moray.  Yes, the number produced was smaller but when you are talking about 100 produced versus several hundred produced, the difference IMHO is academic.  Everyone who owns a Benarus has a limited edition watch because the number of watches produced is so small compared to the older companies such as Seiko, Omega, etc.

 

I for one would love to have a Barracuda II.  Imagine red carbon fiber, green carbon fiber, or even purple carbon fiber.  These would be gobbled up!!
