15202 preowned price premium

How much do you think the premium for a late series 15202 be over the prior iteration?

How does the new clasp and AP logo at 6 o'clock impact resale value?

I'm being offered a mint older version, full set and recently serviced and would like to know your opinion.

Impossible to answer for a variety of reasons.
Do you like or prefer the AP logo at ’12’, the clasp, and white date wheel (assuming non-white dial)?
What price have you been quoted?
What comparisons have you done to assess if the price is about right?

For me there is no comparison, I would never get the older version of the Jumbo, the new one is so much nicer IMO, the old one is very nice but the new one is perfect, and I would think that would be impacted on the resale, if you get a super deal why not, if it is almost the same price as a pre owned new model forget it, I think, just my opinion, that the new one is much more desirable and that should you decide to sell it most people would want the newer version, could be wrong of course but don't think so, anyways do your research, chrono24 of course, and other sites.

I agree with Arnaud I'd stick to the new blue extra-thin jumbo. The older model wasn't quite so popular and distinguished and had many people calling the 300 the Jumbo instead.

I think the newer Jumbo is the way to go.

There are few available and Chrono24 shows the same price as a newer model, around 18.5k.

Seems like less people are parting ways with the older versions as there are few around and there are many newer ones available, weird.

Thanks for your comments

Well I am almost sure if people don't part with them, it is because they know they won't have good resale, or had a really bad one when it was selling so not many bought it in the first place, now there can be on C24, even for 20k, doesn't mean they sell for that price, if ever they sell at all, 99% of the members here will tell you the new one is perfect, the old one not so, that white line around the date, the position of AP symbol, no doubt the new one is by far the nicest and most desirable, especially if you get it at the price of the old, you should make a poll, would imagine it to be a landslide for the new, except if guys here own the old, other than that...

Just took a look and on 32 for sale 4 are old style, and 2 have prices, 17.111 and 14 something, in euros, the newer ones are much more, but even at 14k I take the new one, it could be ok without at least that white line, not great...
