  • Rolex 67518, 18k gold, champagne sunburst dial in very good condition and 30mm. I found one in a local antiques dealer (wife's 40th gift)... Stoked, it's the right watch, and from a reputable dealer. But the price... Ouch! Can't quite decide if it's good value or widely outrageous!

  • Rolex 67518

    you're obviously going to pay a 20%+ markup on a private sale. Is the dealer willing to offer a guarantee of authenticity and originality? is it serviced, and by whom? Fully original and unmolested? What condition is the case? Can you post a picture?

    Edit: on an oyster bracelet you should be looking at around £4000 B&P from a dealer I would think. On a strap perhaps £3000

  • Thanks @freddo I have attached a bad phone pic...
    The store guarantees authenticity and while they're not Rolex AD they are happy for me to get the watch inspected by one. They say it's original 1990 spec. Serviced by them with a 2 year warranty. It all feels very legit and they've been in business for 30+ years BUT I know I'm paying location and probable tourist tax given that they are in the famous QVB Sydney.
