I paid $1500 on strap a couple years ago. i would hope you could pay no more than $2000 but I've seen asking prices in the $2500 range.

this sword handed are more expensive.. Just as I imagined...
I can dig out the BOM if you like, my watchmaker ordered the parts for me, about $215 if I remember right.
I believe it's been polished a bit for resale. The clasp can easily be polished up with a scotch brite pad. If you zoom in on the 2nd picture there is some dirt under the bezel which doesn't get there from being a safe queen. Still, watch looks to be in nice condition, and I would expect to go in the $2500 range with all the extras.
I bought mine in 2007 for $1600 new from my AD. Sold it a couple years later and regretted it. Bought an almost new one pre owned full box and papers for $2100 earlier this year.
Price seems to go up day by day since some watch experts made some videos about it, claiming its the best speed master of the latest 20 years...:

The bezel looks like it could have had a mild polish too; the edges of the scalloped bezel gets dull really fast. Still more than acceptable, IMO.

Six months ago, a similar, minty watch was enlisted here for $2,400

This seller has a code which cuts out 10%, and the watch was sold in two days.
Check a caseback, if it still have a red dot at six o'clock, it means that watc was never opened and perhaps you need to consider a cost of a service soon
Got to laugh. That's not a 2254. Some experts.
What is the BOM my friend?
Yes , but still I think the polishing was done only by maybe a cape cod cloth and not a machine...
Doesn't the 2254 have the word "chronometer" on the dial?
