Whats it worth.

Ok guys whats your opinion on this watch and what is its value, the picture is not of the actual watch but the watch in question is identical to it,
the year of manufacture is apparently 1991 (X) it is in very good condition without any scratches etc on the face or bracelet and just a couple of minor marks on the clasp, it comes with the box and one years guarantee on the movement but without any other papers, your comments / advice would be much appreciated,
Regards, The Soulman.

I'll take the first crack at it since I have a 1992 that is identical except for the diamonds. I'd say between $2500-$3500 depending on its "in person appearance"and having papers, tags, etc that came in the original box.

Do tags play an important role to the price ?

I doubt you could prove it but sellers frequently mention it when they have it and I think it makes it a little more enticing when you have everything that came in the original box.

Has it been recently serviced?

If so, I'd say value is about 3,800.

The bezel seems over-buffed.

Not serviced: 500 to 600 less.

If the bracelet is stretched (cannot judge that from the pic), you'd be looking at 3 K.

Right on the money. Appears to be a bit streched, and with no papers makes it $2500.

Looks kind of haggard. Maybe 1K or a little more. It looks like it has some miles on on it.

Thanks guys, but as stated the picture is not the watch in question but One identical in appearance, the watch face and bracelet appear in very good condition and the only mark on the watch is a minor scratch on the clasp, the watch is 1991 (X) and is offered with a 1 year guarantee on the movement, comes with a box but without any original papers,

I'd say probably around £2000 ish without papers considering the diamond dial.

I personally wouldn't be interested if the papers were not present, I just can't see how people lose something as important as that!

Around 1,200 -1,300 GBP is about fair market value, but keep in mind that it's probably due for a 250 GBP overhaul.
