What do you have and what did you pay for the parts?

You need to give detailed specifications, And probably some pictures. I think the members here can give you an idea of its value. Remember though you need to have a higher post count or become a supporter to sell it and list it on M2M. Just a heads up so you don't end up creating headaches for yourself by attempting to sell it through this inquiry. Also any pertinent back information like where you got it from will be helpful or if you built it. Now let's see what you got....

Wow looks much better now - it is a very angly date window

Anyway here is my price breakdown guess
Movement - 550 USD
Dial - 200 USD
The rest - 200 USD

As full set though I would say someone into this model might fork out 850 USD - more would be tough to get

its actually a very interesting question you're asking, because I'm sure a lot of people here wonder the same. At the very least we know you cannot post a sale of just the base watch for higher than you bought it, although i'm not sure if that holds true for gen parts. I'm also not sure if you're allowed to factor in labor, especially if you did it yourself. and then at the end of the day, it all comes down to how much someone wants to pay for it.

you can list it at face value ($950) and take it from there. Would love to hear other inputs, maybe from moderators

If it were me, I’d prob stick on another $100 for labor. It looks like you did some work on it. A moddeder would most likely charge about a $100 to swap the movement, parts, and regulate.

If you did some mod work on it (lume, case mods..etc) I would prob attach another $100.

As of now, I think $900-$950 would be a fair price.
