Where to sell

[Frizer]

I'm looking to offload my late 60s Omega Speedmaster to finance the purchase of a Sinn. Just wondering if anyone knows of any reliable dealers in London?

I have the original steel braclet too. Had a service last spring from Omega.

I like Sinn but I prefer the Omega and it being a 60's one as well.

60's ones fetch good money - seen a few nice ones at 3K!

What Sinn are you after? I have a UX GSG9...

Is it a c.861 145.022? '69/70? - depends on how much you know about it - sometimes (esp. in this period) you get anomalies like an applied logo and a cal.861 and vice-versa - the movement will make a difference in price (the 321 arguably more desirable but if it's an 861 it'll be one of the very first. Also whether it has an inscription on the back etc. I think it's a replacement bezel, p'raps, - did you get to keep any original parts after the service? It could be worth about £1800/2000 at a guess, a bit higher or lower depending on small factors.

Dom or others will know a bit more I'm sure.

Just had a quick look on WuS and they (c.861 145.022ST69) seem to be a few hundred below what I thought.

You have a superb watch. Do not sell it!

Thanks for the kind and informative comments.
You have a keen eye- the original bezel coating had flaked off at one spot so I had it changed when it was serviced.
