What affects the price
Condition. Ranges by condition (a condition shows a range only once it has enough results of its own):
- Unworn examples: $11,900–$16,700.
- Excellent condition: $10,400–$14,100.
- Good condition: $13,600–$18,400.
- Fair condition: not enough market data yet.
Completeness. Box, papers, spare links and tags all help; missing papers are the gap buyers notice most.
Two-tone wear. Steel and gold wear differently. Look at the gold parts of a 126233 for thinning edges, since that is where heavy polishing shows first.
Bezel. The bezel is fluted, 18k yellow gold. Fluting shows wear on its ridges, so a crisp bezel is worth photographing.
Service record. A dated service invoice for the calibre 3235 answers the first question most buyers ask about timekeeping.
Card date. Because the 126233 is still made, buyers read the date on the card to judge how recently it was sold new.
List price. €15,050 (retail list price in France per 41watch, January 2026).
Twelve-month change. Change over the past year: +2.9% over 12 months.
Tips for buyers
- Make sure the papers name reference 126233 and that the case measures 36 mm.
- Buy with a return period, and use it to get an independent inspection.
- Look at the card date to see how old the watch is.
- Check the bracelet for stretch and the clasp for wear.
- Ask for the movement to be checked: it should be the calibre 3235.
- Look at the bezel (fluted, 18k yellow gold) for damage or replacement parts.
Tips for sellers
- Skip any cosmetic refinishing; most buyers want the case untouched.
- Collect the box, papers and any service records before you ask for offers.
- Photograph the dial, bezel, case sides and clasp in daylight.
- Use the published price data on this page as a starting point, and get more than one offer.
