Hi all. So last night i was offered a trade for the watch below against my Tudor Black Bay. I'm interested but not at a straight swap. I've had a good look on here to see what others have sold for and i think i would put a value of around £1100 on this? The seller values it at £1500 but i think he is a bit of a dealer. Am i out of line with this valuation? Both his watch and mine are a full set. Thoughts from those more in the know than myself would be much appreciated before i make any offers.
There are several in the for sale section and 3 sold on eBay in the last 60 days. If you look at all of that plus watchrecon you will see the sellers estimate is probably low
We discussed how this model was selling in the pre-owned market sometime ago; the 2254.50 remains viewed by many as a classic model and is also equipped with a fairly robust movement too... https://omegaforums.net/threads/smp-2254-50.2050/
If you can find one (even with a overpolished bezel like that one) with a full set for £1100, let me know.
I sold mine last year on WUS. It had the other bracelet and was over polished (these are the reasons I sold it). It was sold to a guy that wanted it as a daily beater, so it was a good match. I would hold out for a better example.
Thanks @alam for the read, My BB sold overnight so that takes the deal out of the equation anyway. Thanks all
Decent 2254s currently sell on U.K. forums or eBay at £1400+ all day long and approaching £1750 at a dealer with warranty. Your estimate was on the low side and about 2 years behind the real market.
Yeah I think you are right there @padders. I was looking on the private watch sales section here. Seems like the sold ones were 1-2 years ago
