Hey Guys,

I get a nice watch offered. But unfortunately I cannot make any research because the seller has no reference number and I have no other pictures.

What do you think about it?

Does somebody knows the reference?

Thousands thanks!

It’s a “BA 175.0032”

Gold Speedmaster reduced. They had at least 3 dial variations. All gold, all white, and this one.

 

Thank you! What do you think about collecting this watch?

 

Not hugely desireable for collectors as they tend to avoid the reduced. It’s smaller then a professional at 40mm, and the movement is not easily serviced.

Market seems to be about 3,800 pounds from dealers. It’s the only really affordable way to get into gold Speedmasters though as I believe all gold professionals cost at least 3x more. Bracelet is not original so you need to factor that into cost. If the bracelet is plated then very little value. Additionally that bracelet is going to cause some damage to the inside of the lugs.

End of the day it only matters that you like it and would wear it.

 

I believe @Canuck has this variation and loves it. Although his may not be the 18k version.

 

What would you personally pay for it?

 

That's a partial case number - the watch is a ref. 31125000.

For the OP - note the original bracelet is not what's on the watch, as that appears to be some aftermarket bracelet.

 

Thank you. I know about bracelet, the seller told me. Unfortunately a bad picture of the movement

 

The seller asks about 4500€. What do you think? Thanks for answering.

Did you see what @Foo2rama posted above regarding price? I think that answers your question.

 

Oh of course...thank you!

 

Do somebody has a great source for information about speedmasters? When does the „Eta watches“ appears and which of the Speedmasters are collectable?

I wish that I can give someday the same help which I get from the forum

Thanks!!!

But not for the Reduced modals like this. I think that is what the OP means when he says ETA models. There may be those that will disagree perhaps but these compound movement models are generally considered much less collectible that the Lemania Movement full size watches. Again just as Foo said above.

Thank you all very much!! I will do some research and read some articles.

If somebody is willing to sell a gold Speedmaster I would be appreciated to get some offers

Mine is 18-karat rose gold, and steel. The dial on mine has rose gold sub dials, not gold colour.
