It's a DateJust. Several years old - F series or earlier likely - Hollow end links. Jubilee bracelet.

Dial looks aftermarket - real dials do not have a square frame around the date.

If it was fully legit / with all boxes and papers...maybe $2-2.5K US? However, I have my doubts.

MOP dials do have the framed date window..

It's impossible to date, except to say that it is an older Date Just; the lug holes in the case would put it at least a decade old, and the tritium dial/hands puts it before 1998 (if original to the watch)

Looks to be in decent shape but has been "remanufactured" for the look; older Jubilee bracelets are known to stretch. Condition would dictate the market price.

The photo is dated 2008, so it's unlikely that particular watch is still in the marketplace..

I cannot date it, however, OP that dial is 100% aftermarket

I Agree. The dial lettering is very thick. Definitely aftermarket.

I'd say....

16014 with sapphire conversion or 16200 with bezel installed or 16234

Aftermarket dial for sure

Hands have lume so the dial was replaced with this one

Depending on the movement found and serial number in the case, the age can vary from 1977 to 1999.

I would pay $1500 tops. The ordinary man would most likely pay mid 2000s.
