Current pricing used TT sub blue dial
 

What is a reasonable price to purchase a two tone submariner (16613) for in the US? It’s from a private party with all original parts and box but no papers. Offered at $8300 but hoping to negotiate. It was recently serviced. What’s the current market value? Thanks!

Need pics

Not a great pic, but it looks like the crown side lower lug is a good amount thinner than the other side. The crown guards are demolished. Polishing job removed a decent amount of metal. I would pass as it would bother me, and you can do better in that price range.

Good luck hunting for the perfect 16613 for you. They are iconic watches and I wear mine more than anything else in my collection.

I wouldn't buy that watch. Awful polishing job took off so much metal. Yuck.

Thanks guys

Not worth more than $5k. It's got lug holes so no SEL and like mentioned above, it's been way over polished.

I could use it as a toothpick! Pass!

2004-2006 should be about $8000 or a tad over. I ended up getting a 2018, but had been looking at earlier stock.

Gross

Oooo Nooo !!

WTF happened to those crown guards?!?!? Looks like an angry beaver went at it with an angle grinder...

Really wish there was a better picture. Price seems inline but you should be able to get a nice example at that price point. :cheers:

Prime example of same watch for same money, a great buy:

Wow that may be the cleanest 5 digit example I’ve ever seen.

Don't buy that one. Ever.

That's really nice.

Buy from a known trusted dealer fist time around brother!

Yep - good advice - avoid.

Jool Tool does it again :)

Photo is likely bad on purpose so a buyer can't see up close just how much of a hot mess this watch is. :banghead:

:cheers:

overpolished mess

It looks really ‘rounded’

Over polished and a complete pass.
