These are becoming something of a classic and prices are shooting up!

I was amazed to see that Blowers had one for £4,250, and it's sold!

Certainly a decent one with box and papers must be worth circa £3,500 now, maybe more.

Incredible really, these were circa £2,500 only two or three years ago.

An utter classic. Why would you want to sell it (unless you need the cash)? £3,300 would be the minimum (assuming it has box, papers, service docs etc)

Yep.... And petrol was £0.92 per litre, and it was all fields around here

Well there isn't much that's gone up in value by 50% over the last couple of years...

Try buying an old Porsche or take a look at where E-type Jag prices are at !
Plenty of things rocketing upwards.
It could easily be said that many of these things are still undervalued . . .

You have to spend money on an old Porsche or Jag though, maintaining it, storing it, fixing it.

A GMTII you just strap on your wrist and enjoy.

Until it needs servicing... If it goes back to Rolex, bet on a bill as big as a service for a Porker anyway.

WOW you can get a Porsche serviced for circa £430.00 good deal that!
Besides which Rolex only need a service every 5-10 years and not on an annual basis!!

I bought one from a seller on TZ a month ago, both Ari and Audidoody are pretty close with their estimations.

PM me if you want the exact price I paid.
