The model number is engraved between the lugs I think at 12 o'clock. The dial is very nice, and a waffle dial might bring a premium, however these in general aren't worth that much compared to the vintage Datejusts like a 6605. It's hard to give an estimate, but probably in the 2-3K range.

You shouldn't have any problem removing the bracelet so you can see the Ref number. Once you can establish the Ref # you can then begin doing some research on previous sales and pretty quickly ascertain the current market price. Dial looks very good, btw.

Well, the bracelet (C+I) is worth something too, but it's much newer than the watch. Maybe that's worth $300-500 or so, assuming it has 19mm end pieces.

Beautiful dial. As far as the model, would guess 6565. Not very expensive, $1.5K, even with this dial
