I'll double that offer. 😁

You don't see too many of these around, so it's going to be difficult to use prior comparibles to arrive at a price.

I would say you first need to determine the melt value of the bracelet. I don't think there will be a huge collector's premium on that. Total weight X 75% gold X spot price X 80% smelter profit should get you close.

You may be able to find comparables for the watch head. If not, then have a watchmaker remove the movement and weigh the rest, subtract a bit for the crystal. Then add somewhere around $200 or so for the movement to the previously computed gold value of the bracelet and case.

That should get you to a fair bottom line price. If you get more, good for you.

Hi, my first post here! I just won the auction on this C-shape Constellation after following this tread. A 168.0057 in very good condition! Solid gold version (note the OM on each side of SWISS MADE; apparently means or massif=solid gold) Looking forward to trying it on!
