Long time lurker first time poster. Been in RWI and RG for awhile but seems RWG definitely has nice knowledgeable people especially in the vintage rolllie arena. Been getting my feet wet on the vintage daytona front and vintage rolex in general and was curious if anyone was kinda keep track of current market of parts to build one of these from scratch (assuming using Phong or DW v72 case). I see prices varying on cases for sure, but it seems a good donor watch for v72 appears to be $1,200+ and v726 is more expensive $1500-1700? I've purchased a couple of these recently and want to get an idea of values people see these days on Phong cases, DW v72 case, movement , hands , dials etc. I know there are some feedback in other threads but they seem to be dated and see if these things have moved. I'm thinking about building another one or possibly getting rid / trading some of mine now and wondering what a fair would be.
