Icon9 6309-7040 pricing?

Do folks have general pricing knowledge for late 70's era 6309-7040?

Looks like on Chrono they start around 500 EUR and upwards ( not too many of them there anyway )

Snagged one today for what I believe is a good price. Bezel insert scratched up, has original rubber strap.

That’s a good ballpark. It’s a thing c24 does well.

Agreed, when I was doing a trade at a brick and mortar dealer in Toronto years back he checked Chrono24 to get a ballpark figure regarding the value.

Thanks for the comments, just got it today.

Looks original and day/date works. Bezel is stuck but probably just needing cleaning. Dropped it off for inspection anyway, for water resistance etc.

If everything is ok, not a bad deal at $350 I guess

Good call getting it checked out. Wouldn't be shocked if it's still sealed as it should be but not worth taking chances with. You'll have a lot of fun with this, no doubt. Keep us posted once you pick it up from the watchmaker.
