Rolex 16610 Submariner, E
Discussion
Been offered a 1990 Rolex 16610 Submariner, E serial for around the 4k mark, looks very well looked after a day serviced last year, thoughts on value? Always wanted one, and hoping it would be a good place to invest my cash, not looking to gain but ideally not lose if I need to release funds

Sounds very fair if it's tidy, bracelet not worn out, has box and papers and isn't nicked.foreverme said:
Thanks my only concern was the age, looks immaculate thou...
At that age, age isn't a problem if it makes any sense. It's all about condition. If it's tidy and you know where it has come from it sounds like a very fair price for one of the most iconic sports watches out there.Have you any photos?

Ok that is also an option, anything to look out for?
General condition and bracelet stretch. Also is the seller genuine? Sorry but for some reason I read into your OP that you knew the seller.I still think it's likely to be okay, but I am wary about parting with four figure sums based on photos - if there is no comeback anyway.

It doesn't matter that it doesn't have its original box and papers.Thirty years is a long time for someone, possibly several people, to lose them. It is priced accordingly.Personally, I'd go and see the watch and seller in person. I'd satisfy myself that the watch is as good as it looks, that the paperwork relates to the watch and that I "buy" the seller. Then I would buy and enjoy it.
