I have a vintage OmegaTripleDateMoonphase watch.
Ultimately I wish to sell it.
I have not had it opened by a watch maker.
Any suggestions as to where to list it for sale and how to handle the selling of it.
This is all new to me.
Thanks,
Kelly

Go to ebay and type in the search: Omega 2471
Then check the sold listings.

To ensure you have realistic valuations, make sure you search for sold items, not currently listed for sale.
These models fetch decent prices, but many dealers have them 2-3 times overpriced on the main platforms. And they never sell.
You can also check the private sales of this forum, which would give you some good data point.

First thing I would do is take that cheap expanding bracelet off of it. Get it on a nice leather strap before the sale. Good luck.

Thank you. How do I check sold items on this forum?

Thank you. Perhaps I should just remove the bracelet. Am I able to list it for sale on this forum? Can I see what others have sold for on this forum?

No, you have a bit to go before you get that access.

Can I see what others have sold for on this forum?
Yes, the forum has an excellent search feature.


It is still recommended to search ebay and utilize the sold/completed filters as it will provide more data points.

No, you are not allowed unless you have 200 posts. You can search the sales on this forum to see what reasonable asks and sale look like. Google will ring them up too.
