Guys, if you were comparing two snowflake subs of the same year and in overall similar condition but one was totally original and the other had service replacement dial, hands and bezel, how much would you expect the value of the piece with the service parts to be lower by?

Obviously impossible to talk absolutes without a lot more info but in general percentage terms if this is possible?

An untouched example of a snowflake would probably trade at double a serviced snowflake

Significant difference, the more original, the better the looking then the better the pricing. If the original parts were shot, then not so much

Whoa...slow down there cowboy. Remember this ref suffers from dial rot. I would take a service dialed watch over this any day:

The OP specified that the two watches are in "similar overall condition", so the 2x estimate is probably a reasonable guess. However, if you posted photos, you would get more reliable information.

HQ Milton has a service dialed 7016 up for $8350 with original dialed watches $8550 - $11850, so not such a big hit.

Question is which one will he sell first... I have no doubt it will be the originals.
