Hi

as it says... I want a mint GMT 2 but I'm put off by some of the silly prices the shops want... anyone got a nice one for sale at all?....as I know what the shops buy price is, it would be a win / win for both of us wink

Cheers

Are all shop prices silly prices, or do they represent current retail value of a nice example with box, papers, warranty etc?

I paid £2750 for my '91 gmt2 pepsi last year as above. Is that silly?

Out of interest how much would a z series 2007 brand new be worth now?

I paid a few quid more at the start of this year for my Coke (still less than £3k) but that was in the US (box and some papers)...

Lovely things but not sure I can see £4k+ value in a modern one. £3.5k in the UK for a nicely presented watch with B&P would be a good deal, I reckon.

I think a guy just picked one up for that money (but a Pepsi) on another thread smile

Not a coke, but a very very nice vintage ('68) pepsi on TZ SC just now. Asking £4365. With minty sub non-dates at £3k, £4k+ for this one seems not wrong.
The only thing is the guy is in USA so when you factor in 20per cent taxes it gets a whole lot more

Good point. But I would think they would insist on todays value and what is being paid for the watch

When I say silly prices... I'm talking the £4.5K to £6.5K you see them at

£3.5-£4K is where they are at the moment for a good shop bought one so some did well buying that low...
I spend a bit of time inthe US and have looked at 4 out there... from that 2 were copys, one I was not sure about... and the last was the same price as the UK so no gain.

I'm now in China and have seen copies out here you would not believe (what they call Swiss copys)... you just can't tell the differance....

I was thinking one of the dealers in the UK and up to £4K.. at least that way you know its real! (or at least you can go back if you find it's not).

and you get a warranty of 12 months.. maybe the best way to go...

IMHO they are one of the best watches ever made!!!! smile

I offered £3.8k for one recently and was turned down , the seller was holding out for more than £4k as the watch can only go up in value so I'm in no hurry to sell.

So why advertise it then ?
