Hello everyone!

I'm looking for my first speedy pro and found this 145022-69 for sale.. What do you guys think of it? Seller is asking ~ 4500USD, do you think it's reasonable price?

Thanks in advance!

Mateus

 

any details on the movement?

 

Sorry, it is a 861

 

pics showing condition? SN? these are the questions the resident experts will ask you to help assess the entire package...

 

If the SN is in the correct range (2842x - 31x) I'd say it's not bad for $4500 if the bracelet is included. Does he have end links though?

 

It comes with the bracelet and a rough DON bezel. If the movement is right, that's a very fair price in the current market. The chances of the movement being incorrect are relatively slim. I'd buy it if you pass....IF it comes with the bracelet. That bezel and bracelet are worth nearly 2k. That leaves the head at 2500. Not much to think about here.

 

This are the only photos I have now, I'm trying to get more, along with the SN.

 

I'm waiting the seller to tell the SN. Bracelet is included and is complete with end links.

Thanks for the thoughts! Bracelet is included

 

I would get a photo of the end links, make sure they're correct 516. Do you know what the date stamp is on the bracelet?

See, it looks to me like it could be 4/69. If the watch has a 28.42m serial number, the bracelet could be original, and the value of this watch (to a collector) would be increased.

Without that knowledge, I'd still buy this as long as the 516 ends were included; if it were a 28.42 I'd jump all over it and order an Extract of the Archives as soon as I could!

 

in today's wacky market that's a good deal provided all is there and original / correct
good luck
