16610a

Just purchased a 16610A from an AD that has a family connection and I was wondering what a fair price would be . The AD took this watch in on trade from the original purchaser whom had purchased it from them and was never worn out but for rare occasions. it has every tag, insert, box, etc. etc. and the Original sales receipt . They are giving me a one year warranty in shop and the option for a 100% trade in value as long as I have it . Sound cool shipped overnight, insured 3600.00? Supposed to be a good deal but I am not the one to ask as it is my first purchase. I lost a sub that was given to me by my brother several years ago and I have wanted to replace it since. This is Black bezel if that helps?
PS I'll have it Tuesday!!

That price seems to be very fair. Congrats on the purchase.

Paid around that much for mine, and I thought that it was a steal!

Good luck with the transaction

MAN I AM ON PINS AND NEEDLES !!!!! I could not even sleep last night , up till 3:30AM . They really should prescribe something for the nerves about a day before you make the order! Just like the pack of excedrin that came packed with my Barrett .50cal Anyway I am calling her in 15 minutes to give them my address . To bad USPS is closed today, I really wanted to send it Express but I guess FedEx or UPS or whomever they trust. I leave for 20 days in Europe Wednesday and I have to be at the Airport by 11AM. So it should be fine not a long haul either
