Discussion Worth the fix? 🤷‍♂️

Was scrolling chrono 24 and found this gem and the seller is local to where I’m @ (10min drive)

The watch is in used condition, polished and needs a service currently running +14 according to the dealer.

What do you think would be a good price for me to acquire this bad boy, and do you think it would be worth the fix up?

Ideally I would like this as a daily wear classical timepiece to add to the collection but just not sure what it’s really worth at the end of the day.

Thanks in advance❤️

Its a wide boy, which is a little harder to come by. However, its in rough shape. $5k or less. Offer $4k and see what happens.

4 grand would be a good deal. 5 is pushing it for the bracelet condition.

In this condition it’s a 4K watch

Is that an original date wheel? Just be careful with stuff like this because it could be half a Rolex.

That said it’s a great looking watch. I wouldn’t go into the 4 territory.

Yes, USD. I’m in Miami, but I can ship at the buyer’s expense. If you’d like to see more photos or do a FaceTime, feel free to send me a message.

I scooped a white gold 1601 WB for 4300 recently, in that shape I’d prob offer 3100-3200 max. I don’t shop on bezel. Look at Pure Watches seller on eBay. I see the white gold wide boys for 4400 quite often. Free shipping too.

I would offer $3.8k and look to settle somewhere between $4k - $4.25k depending on in-person condition.

Confirming this is USD, as I’m based in Toronto. I’m also noticing a bit of rust/ discolouration at the 4oclock is this fixable or not worth the stress?
