2005 Oyster Date - A Good Deal?
Ran across this ad in Craigslist. I did a lookup on the original price and if the database I used was accurate, this watch retailed for $3800 in 2005.
Can anyone here confirm this? And if this is accurate, then is $3200 a reasonable asking price? Or considering todays market, does an even lower price make sense? Lastly, are there any substantial differences between this 2005 model and the current model? |

Considering it was $3800 new 9 years ago and they want $3200 9 years later that's high.
I can get one with box and papers for $2500 same year all day long.

I'd say a touch high. 16200's are commonly in the $2600 range if you're patient.
