Whats a good price for a 2005 16610

I've found a 16610 for $3200 with box & papers bought from an AD in 2005 F serial. Would this be a good price?

I'm still 'investigating' the seller.

That's nice often a good seller will command a premium for his good rep.

Just remember that you're gonna have to service that baby soon too when you're thinking about what you wanna pay for a F series.

That's what I paid for mine then I had to have it serviced. BTW, mine was not from an AD. The service cost should be factored in.

I should make a new thread but I'll see what response I get here. With my Omega Auto, its way overdue for a service but after a $30 regulation, its keeping excellent time. A lot of fellow Omega owners dont service their watches until they see significant time loss. Is it the same for Rolex? Can they got long past their service dates? I know very reputable Omega owners, who know a a LOT about watches who have had them for 10 years without a service. I think their logic is that if you get it serviced its gonna cost you $XXX anyways so if they keep it till starts loosing time, its not gonna cost much more to service and regulate it.

afaik, Rolex still runs strong after 10 years, but it is recomended that you do have a service every 5~7 years... but no it wont kill your watch from what ive read

Yes a Rolex can go longer than that without a service. If I were buying a pre-owned one that was more than five years old, I would factor in around $550 for a service
