my old man has a seamaster as well as a co axel or something and funny enough the co axel is worth twice more and looks like a cheapy leather strap watch, and i thought my Rolex was the best watch in the world

Rolex...eerrmm..fraid not..good watch but you can get a lot better for the money.Its all personal taste of course.Ive had 2 rolex submariners,the 1st one was ok,but time keepin was poor,12 o'clock pip on bezel fell out.2nd one,the auto mechanism went faulty costing over £300 to repair and pins on the strap were poor quality causing the bracelet to sag after time.Having owned 4 previous Omega's(sea and speedmasters)i have never had a prob with any.
Your old mans co axial,depending on model of course,could easily be worth double his seamaster.Again it depends on model of seamaster too.Some go for as little as £150..
Cheers

no his seamaster is more or less identicle to urs but regarding the co axel i dont have a clue
he always said to us that we had no clue about watches n i used to laugh it off, looks as though he was serious about his prices lol
the most robust watch ive had n still wear at times is a Seiko Kinetic, I cannot see ma self spending prices such as them of the Seamaster, id go out and buy another car lol

Dealer offered me £550 and quite openly admittted that he would put it in his window at £800 and probably take £750.
He also advised me that with the watch still being under manufacturers warranty it would be a good buy for him,as he wouldnt have to warrant the watch himself!!
Anyway..i didnt sell it too him but it gave me a fair indication of what im likely to get for the watch..
Cheers

thanks fatscoobyfella
gives me a good indication , not that im even remotely interested in selling it at the moment. they are a crackingly built watch and thats a bargain for that money.

Excellent watch i agree,if watch doesnt go to good home i will keep it.They dont seem to lose a lot of money after initially buying them..People on e bay are still asking £600+ for a 3-5yr old watch..
