At first glance everything looks right for a 6084, complete with the fairly rare Super Oyster crown. Serial matches 1952. How much was it?

Very, very nice.

....I'll push the boat out and offer $35 given my recent merry-go-round (see my 53 bubbleback thread)...(j/k)

Are you looking for validation that you paid a sensible price, about to pay a sensible price, or fishing for a 'what's-it-worth?' selling price if you already own it? (hence the range of responses you've had)

Nice Bubbleback !

Check your reference number on chrono24, and use the sort feature. Should be easy to find a comparable watch.

Check the market here on TRF, there are several to compare. They have sold for as little as 1K and upward.

with all due respect you must be using a different internet than us as there are examples of comparable watches all over my internet. it's not a hard to find model at all.

So you're thinking of selling it but don't want to say how much you paid because you're hoping someone makes an offer higher than your cost?
