    Hi

    I have a Speedmaster which is approx. 1967, full working condition but I don't have the papers or the orig box.

    Can anyone help me with wanting to find out how much it is worth as I don't know where to start.

    thanks in advance for any help.

    1967... Could be a 145.012, 105.012 or a 105.003. In terms of hitting your jackpot: good, better & best.

    Look at the link speedmaster101.com, there's a price chart. Post pics here and let the friendly people help you assess its grade (poor, running, good or collector... or somewhere in between). :thumbsup:

    Your watch is valuable if it is as you say.
    Do what the members here suggested. You will get fairly accurate information with a combination of pictures here (inside and out) and your reading Speedmaster101.com. No one here will seek to profit off your watch.
    Be alert though to anyone who tries to contact you non publicly through email or private message for a quick deal. Scammers read everything nowadays and have likely already spotted your message

    I would be very careful to not take it to random jewelers or even watch shops, you could easily get cheated with what might seem like a good deal, but is actually a low valuation.

    You have a career as an eBay photographer. I'm sure those who can help you would ask for photos that are in focus.

    Your bezel is service replacement, as are the pushers.

    Thankfully it looks like the dial is original with a lovely patina and the case looks good. Unfortunately the bezel, bracelet, pushers and crown have been replaced which has an impact on value (the lack of the original bezel has a severe impact).

    Are you looking get an idea of value?

    You'll want to see if you can get a picture of the movement to verify that the serial number match the range for a 105.003.

    Given the replacement parts (pushers, bezel, etc) I would imagine collectors will want to know if the movement was severely impacted.

    Regardless, that's one of the better handset/dials ive seen in awhile. You've probably already gotten some private messages I'm sure.

    I’d want to see natural light on those hands before I’d call it a matching set.

    That dial though...

    As noted for a true valuation the serial would need to be known on this one. But safe ballpark assuming serial matches would be above good condition minus 3-5k for the bezel replacement using the price chart on Speedmaster101.com.

    Note: this does not take into consideration the bracelet.

    Note: I did not fully vet the dial correctness, I’m fuzzy on this period on which models where narrow and which where not. Plus there was narrow T service dials out there I thought, and I didn’t check the fonts.
