    It's a London market so add about 30% to the trade cost.. This particular model is £1850.. I tried to barter her down lol! She had some nice military watches. Not many redials for a change! It started snowing so I fled!

    Just to add. I didn't buy ANY of these watches. It's just a representation of what's out there.

    Okay, as a retailer I have a bone to pick and I'm going to be blunt.

    :coffee:

    You beat her up to get rock bottom prices, yet didn't buy a damn thing? I'd be PISSED OFF and would have said something to you. You don't engage in serious negotiations for your amusement. She's trying to earn a living and your dicking her around. Not cool.

    :coffee:

    Are you trying to teach me something here?? ;) I didn't give her a price to begin with, I was going to throw in an offer afterwards after I'd found out if it was a good deal? If that makes sense? She said it was the lowest she would take. My friend said that was still quite high for a stainless steel one?

    Here's my 2 pence worth...:)

    I think £1,850 ($2,800) is a bit too high on the Constellation. The back has been polished almost to the point of obliterating the engraving. Crown needs replacing and the original dial is heavily toned.

    IMO it's a £1,500 ($2,300) watch max, and that's assuming it's 18K, not 14 or 9K. A better dial would add a lot to the value.

    Hope this helps,
    gatorcpa

    PS - The band is not genuine.

    Hmmm. Based on your description of her stand i think shes a regular at birmingham and uxbridge watch fairs - physically imposing, grey hair? If so, i've held that watch and never been able to pull the trigger. I think the patina is attractive, but its just a little too worn for that much money. She's had it for nearly a year to my knowledge. Is that a crack in the bezel at 7?
