Which has more "monetary" value?

Say in a YG submariner with solid,
not hollow links, which has more
monetary value, the case or the bracelet?

Just picking your minds

Not a fair question.

The case has the movement.

Not apples to apples.

Hahaha yes the case has the movement, but the bracelet might have more gold! :)

you talking about melt down price? or market demand price?

Wild guess on going market price, the bracelet is worth about a third the value of the watch, while the case is worth 2 thirds the value of the watch.

I think OP means amount of gold in bracelet versus the case itself?

Ahhh, that song!
Opens so much memories..
On the serious side, I think, the bracelet may have more monetary value than the case with the movement...
