8171 18k Yellow Gold

It was a yellow gold 8171 - pristine condition with tags and box. This one is not in that ballpark but is a beautiful example.

Glad to know shes aware of the value. Hurts to think what could have happened at the service but it looks good.

OMG what a find!

That watch needs to be SECURELY locked away in a GOOD safe when it is not being worn, and locked away especially if being merely kept as an heirloom.

Nope. Nothing sold but very limited numbers.
