Value of Milsubs ?

Does anyone have an idea of how much military submariners are worth today?
I bought one over 17 years ago because I couldn't afford a new sub? Are they really valuable now?

mad world

Yeah mad old world. Still i didn't buy because i didn't have a spare £1500. With hindsight i would of gone running to the bank

Still i'd like to know who has been driving up the prices. I have aload of Mil watches ww2 and later, and none are near these crazy prices. still, will bide my time!!!
