Suggested Price for an Omega Speedmaster 321 (ST105003-65)

I'm not sure anything under 14k would be a great deal.

If more, quality pictures of the dial and movement show no issues, then I think $12-14k is about right. Certainly not a steal and certainly not just going off the pictures we've been given.

Nowadays the pricing of 321 speedmasters is very subjective and becoming more and more an art.

Why? Because buyers are paying quite large premiums for attractive watches. The art is to know what you, the buyer likes, and having the courage to buy it. Many, many critics don't own watches.

Recently some correct, or nearly correct 105.003's sold in open auction for £4700 - 6000. These were on full view and discussed - the reason they achieved such low values is that the quality of them was rubbish - Components were very poor, and the overall look was unattractive. Bear in mind other 105.003's have rocketed to 10k also tucked away in a rural auctions.

One was recently acquired via a Watch Sales website for £1200.

The state of the bezel now heavily influences a final valuation. You have to bear in mind bezels now sell up to $5000 for a mint one, and $2500 for a fair to good one. I do wonder if this is permanent.

The state of the dial is also central to the value and will make a buyer go medieval if it is attractive, and more so if it is undamaged as well. In this case its hidden under a scratched crystal which drives some buyers nuts, and they go to Nevada.

The history of the watch will also heavily influence a price. Buyers are paying more for a watch that they perceive as not having passed through a dealers hands. So a watch that looks a mess at auction will fly, if it looks un- interfered with and largely original, or has family history. By contrast, in the same auction, if the watch smells of the trade, it will hang.

the OP watch is very attractive. The movement bridges all match, the screw heads all seem undamaged and there are no broken parts I can see.
The dial might be really good under that crystal and in open auction the buyers who like this will fight to gamble as is right now - because thats what they do - while we all sit and wonder they will dig deep and fight - it seems the poorer the photos the harder they will fight - the illusion being they will buy an untouched watch - which ironically they will then " touch" by servicing.
