docdoowop Posted December 11, 2012 Report Share Posted December 11, 2012 After work I stopped at my favourite pawnshop and found this litlle gem. Its apparently the owner of the pawnshop's and he tagged it at $995 but will sell it to me for $600 Is it worth it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

docdoowop Posted December 11, 2012 Author Report Share Posted December 11, 2012 uuhh.... yeah...sorry The Citizen was in the way... Tudor it is. Year 1970 and some acronym engraved on caseback (retirement gift I suppose) Bracelet is folded links, Rolex signed, 19mm crystal is pretty nice considering its the original...

fijikid Posted December 11, 2012 Report Share Posted December 11, 2012 Seems like you're having a 'just because' moment. Have you actually been looking for one of these or did it just strike your fancy cuz there was finally a nice watch under his glass? If you really want one, $600 is not a bad price for this watch. It appears to be the 34mm model w/date. Fairly common and priced usually anywhere from $500 - $1200 depending on how delusional the seller is. If it's the jumbo version which is 38mm, then I'd say a very nice deal - though it looks more like the pedestrian 34mm version. Nice watch.

permabull Posted December 14, 2012 Report Share Posted December 14, 2012 Of course it's "from his private collection" - where have I heard that before - a well-worn salesman's phrase. I wouldn't be putting down $600 for it but if it's speaking to you, why not. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
