Hello, I have a query, I have this 'maroon'? deep purple Omega light box with the letters on a white background which I think is from the 1950/60's, it is; 64 cm L x 13 cm H x 11 cm D and what I am wondering is 'how much', what would be the value of a piece like this? I have looked around and found nothing...
regards,
Gary

That is basically "whatever the buyer and seller agree to". It is likely an older window-display for a store (even potentially custom made!), so I doubt you will see any price guidance on it.

Due to it not being particularly useful, and fairly sizable, I doubt it is worth really anything, unless you find the 'magic' buyer.

IMO, that is one of those things that'll end up sitting on ebay for years until some magic buyer comes around.

I feel like without a Ω, it seems incomplete. I agree that there is no real value here anyway. Probably cost more to ship it (properly and safe) than someone would pay for it unless it's some crazy "magic buyer" that has to have it and pays the first and only price you happened to throw out.

Thanks for your opinions, I have someone who wants it quite badly or I might put it in a Watch auction, I picked it up on holiday (Portugal) from a shop that had closed down years before...

I would like it a lot more with an Omega symbol logo, but even as it is, I suspect someone would pay at least a couple hundred USD for it. It's a nice decorative accessory.

The issue holding back the price will likely be shipping. I assume it’s large and fragile so shipping will be expensive and risky which will limit your buyers
