Help me with value

A friend has a z series 166610 that he wants to sell to finance a hulk. It has the box, warranty (name filled in), books and links. He doesn't have either of the tags. The bezel and crystal have no issues , the bracelet is tight but has many scratches that I believe could be buffed out. Never serviced. Warranty is dated October 2006. What is a fair price? Please let me know what you think.

First, I think ur reference has one extra 6.

That said, I have no real idea from a professional standpoint, but I'd pay no more than $4,000 based on ur description.

Just search the classified here on TRF, there are plenty of watches like that, that are either for sale or have sold. You'll have no problem figuring out a value.

You'll probably find several with the same Z serial listed.....

That's a great watch, I hope you can work something out....

You are correct. I did the same but most of those are in excellent to BNIB condition but this one has a rough bracelet without a service that is due. Also without both hang tags. That is why I am soliciting the vast knowledge here on TRF.

If you take the average selling price of a comparable watch and subtract the cost of a full service, that might be a fair price.
