Love root beers but that looks a little worn. What you see on the dials is very common. I'm a serial researcher and in that condition they go on eBay from 3700 to about 4100.

Hands look replaced as they don't match the wear on the dial. I actually like the way these sunburst dials age , so that is a plus.
How much bracelet stretch is there? Looks like quite a bit. Without more pictures, I'd say below $4k because I would want to get different hands and bracelet repair.

Thanks for the comments I noticed the hands also The bracelet does have a lot of stretch but I think it is the original GMT bracelet with 50 on the end link.

Take a look under NKFlyer in the classified section. He has one for sale. I picked up one from him a couple weeks ago in mint condition and couldn't be happier.
