HOW TO SELL A WATCH: Auction or Direct selling

I have been thinking of selling my watch for a while now. IF I were to sell it, I would want the most I can sell it for (of course). I have seen auctions where Paul Newman Daytona's have sold for over 100K as well as other very nice vintage Rolex that fetched top dollar.

I see some pros and cons to auctions. They allow bidding wars and in return, you maximize your sale. On the downside, you have to pay a percent to the house. I'm not sure how taxes play into a sale either.

If you directly sell it to a buyer, your not sure if someone else would have paid more for the same watch. And again, I don't know how taxes come into play for selling a watch. Do you have to report that on your taxes?
