    I have one of the above. And was wondering what a realistic value of it would be as having looked on ebay they have seem to be going for various prices.
    Its a late sixties no date on an aftermarket leather strap. Has had some work done due to water ingress at some point. Its had new dial and hands and some internals.

    Be interseted if I could have some feedback

    Condition and originality drives the value on these.

    Some photos of your watch are a must for any possible help here.

    Value is from $100 to $4000.

    We could narrow it down with some pics. :D

    Hi Steve. I have a late 60's Plymouth that I'm trying to find out the value of. It has a manual transmission and there's been some bodywork done, mostly where the quarter panel had some rust. Just put new brakes and tires on it. Can you tell me the value of it?

    Steve, I looked at replacement dials
    and now I'm thinking dial is ok.
    It's definitely a Luminova replacement
    though. Second hand is incorrect .
    Crown is not correct either.
    Bezel insert looks to replacement
    but correct I believe. But I would like
    to see what's inside.

    ulackfocus: Usually Plymouths from that year go for $2,000-6,000, unless it's a particularly desirable model, then it can go much higher. I suggest you check out some of the fine vintage car sites out there!

    It's PVD coated, right? Could be the lighting, but even the hands look to be black, and not the typical polished look...if so, there's not much that's really original about it. As noted the crown is not correct.

    Cheers, Al

    Your watch is lovely for someone who just wants a watch to tell time but a kosher example will give you an enjoyment of a life-time.

    Thank you.
