[graywhaleman]

i am new and screwed up the first time. i started a new thread with the proper attatchment of pics.

Wow, it really looks great. I can't help you with the prices, but I'm sure it's worth more than a regular yellow gold Datejust with the original dial+hands.

[wehttaM]

You sir, are a lucky man! Do not sell that watch. It is a great example of an early DateJust. As in value, about $10,000 to $12,000 I believe, since it is pink gold. Guys correct me if I am wrong!

Enjoy wearing it!

you think it is worth 10000-12000!!!!! i thought it was rare but not worth that kind of money. i feel like i am on "antiques roadshow" and just got really good news. thanks

[graywhaleman]

thanks for the good news, i had no idea it was worth that much

Regular yellow gold Datejusts like that regularly go from about $7,000 to $8,500. Since yours is pink gold, the value will increase since it is rarer. Never sell something like that. Enjoy it

it has an engraving in the back. should i leave it or take it out?

[wehttaM]

How deep is it?

Leave it, remember if you polish you take out some of the gold as well.

[graywhaleman]

it is fairly deep and runs about 3/4 inch across. i have taken out worse but with the value of the watch maybe i should just leave it.

[graywhaleman]

i am thinking the same thing

Leave it. You will remove gold and that is not a good thing.

Yeah, I think it would just be better. I saw a similar early Datejust in yellow gold going for 8k the other day, so I think it will be worth around there or even more.

[graywhaleman]

good advise. thanks for the good news as well! i need to hang out at gold recyclers more often.

Amazing what some people scrap. Keep an eye out for the early Daytonas, they are worth a lot.

Yep, it did. A YG jubilee like yours.

[wehttaM]

A big congrats again! I will trade my GMT for it.

[graywhaleman]

i really do not hang out at recyclers but maybe i should. i would love to find an early daytona but i think i used up all of my good luck for the year.

[Renoir]

Wow, beautiful piece! Enjoy!

[graywhaleman]

one of my favorite watches was a rootbeer all 18k gmt. i sold it last year. i even called the guy who bought it from me to see if he would sell it back, no dice.

[Wolfgang427]

Congrats on a beauty of a DJ.....

[graywhaleman]

thanks. i am glad to have aquired it.

[G.J]

Wow, beautiful piece!
