I´m considering buying this X-serial 16700.

htt ps://imgur .c om/a/Rkqbrsw

(Too few post to post links)

Watch has a 78360 bracelet with 501B endlinks, but a 62510H clasp stamped with "RS2"

I´m understanding that the clasp is for a Jubilee-bracelet, but I´ve seen this combination on other watches for sale, suggesting the clasp has been replaced. Could have been done at a service in 2011, and the "RS2" stamp might suggest 2010 as a production year.

Watch comes witout certificate, but an service guarantee card from 2011, orginal inner and outer box, booklet three extra links, and the original black insert. The pepsi-one is aftermarket.

Any comments on the watch, case, dial, braclet etc. would be much appreciated. I currently have the watch, considering to buy, so could provide more pitures if wanted.

Also the bezel is stuck, would your best guess be to just pop it off and clean it, or does the spring-mechanism often break on theese?

Thanks!

Also, i might be in the wrong sub-forum?

Haha, understandable. That last post i tried to ads photos with Tapatalk, and the result is a combination of my limited post count and noobness with the app. But if you want to check the pictures, the first post have the «link» :)

Thanks for the reply! My concern is not the authenticity of the watch, but the overall condition. Does it look very polished? Does the lugs look "fat" enough?

And the 62510H clasp on the 78360 bracelet, is this also a normal combination after a service? (possible service clasp, but cant find a "s" on it, but dates to 2010)

And i have cleaned under the bezel pretty good, maybe still a tiny amount of dirt on the case, but the bezel is still HARD to turn. Can a slightly bent click-spring be the culprit? And my friend is asking around $9500 for it, missing the original certificate.

GLADIATOR · 16 February 2020, 05:23 AM

Personally, i think $9500 is high, its got dings on the bezel, and polished
I have never removed or fitted a bezel my self, but of should turn both ways perfectly

Bracelet clasp looks wrong for 2010

9500 is retail for that watch. For a few hundred dollars more, you can do better

I hear you. «Problem» is where i am based, non-EU european, I’ll have to add 25% vat on a purchase abroad. Vintage gmt’s listed here range from 10500-13500. Maybe I’ll just pass, have to add a service to the cost as well.
