Rolex Daytona - No papers
Discussion

So folks - how much of a discount should you apply for the absence of papers? Assume if it had papers it would retain for £7,300 and is dealer verified as genuine.
If it had papers it'd be worth 6750, where does 7300 come from?If you want to assume 7300, then just over 6 grand sounds right. 25% from papers is usual, although Daytona papers are rarely lost, never seen a modern one for sale without them!

Bi-metal - lost as criminal it was seized from not keen on handing over docs.....and I would not go looking. SOCA sale equivalent.If you want to assume 7300, then just over 6 grand sounds right. 25% from papers is usual, although Daytona papers are rarely lost, never seen a modern one for sale without them!

No one knocks 25% off for papers, even Haywood Milton, a well known dealer said a couple of hundred for papers.
On what? I know of no Rolex, vintage or modern, where a watch with no papers would be worth two hundred pounds less than a watch with papers. Haywood Milton certainly knows his stuff, but the market doesn't bear out his comment.So a bi-metal (undesirable) Daytona with no papers seized from a criminal. What age is it? No offence, but this is looking like a 5 grand watch.

I can't remember which watch was being discussed when he said that, but if say a 16610 was worth £4000 with b&p, I wouldn't expect to get it for £3000 without. Maybe 10% less at most. Once the warranty has expired, as long as I can prove authenticity, they're pretty superfluous on a modern watch.yeti said:

I'm assuming they you are not a watch dealer, only thing worse that a Bi-Metal Daytona is one with diamonds.

Rolex box and papers seems to be worth £500 when I have looked at prices.
Def no more than that and not the 1k banded about here.
On what watch? A MilSub? A Comex? Or maybe a plexiglass Datejust?Def no more than that and not the 1k banded about here.
Fact is, it's very easy to buy a watch without papers. It's a hell of a job selling it on though.
