    Theo and Harris are high and they sell a lot of stuff if it's by backroom offers who knows. I look at their auctions all the time but never saw a thing there I would pay their prices

    I just don't get some of these sellers. Does this seller really expect someone to pay 5K for a watch with only a picture of the front of the watch. Really, only a few seconds looking at other listings should tell the seller that more pictures are warranted.

    What could I hope to get for my Seamaster 300 (26XXXXXX serial number)?
    Never touched by a jeweler of serviced.I gave the watch to my dad when I got out of the Navy in 1971, He was a carpenter & big guy with 8" Wrists , he bumped the bezel and knocked it off the watch. He wore the watch for years without the bezel. I had the bezel put back on the watch 5 years ago.I paid $190 for the watch at NAS ROTA SPAIN in 1969.I was offered $10k by a Boston Dealer.

    It’s quite ironic that you posted this here in a thread about unrealistic expectations since you were recently ejected from another forum where you had this up at $12k. I still think that looks like a service bezel but you are in the right place for expert opinion here. Maybe play nicer with any comments you get this time.

    Are you entitled to sell here?

    Nobody is entitled to sell here. There is a separate forum for that. I guess some selllers can’t be bothered to read the rules or think the rules don’t apply to them.::facepalm1::
