Individual sale results behind our data, from eBay and auction houses. Each watch differs in condition and set.

Forum rows are posts on Reddit r/Watchexchange, RolexForums and WatchUSeek that the seller marked sold. The amount is the listed price when marked sold, not a confirmed sale price, and forum rows do not feed our price.

Median price per month or quarter. A point needs at least 3 records in its month or quarter; a gap in a line means too few records, and nothing is filled in. Forum prices are the price a seller listed on Reddit r/Watchexchange, RolexForums or WatchUSeek when the post was marked sold, not a confirmed sale price. Historical context only: these series do not feed the price shown above.

What affects the price

Dial. Several dials share this reference, and dial colour and markers move the price of an individual watch. Ask whether the dial is original.

Bracelet. Check which bracelet the watch comes on and how stretched it is; the gold links show wear.

Condition. Ranges by condition (a condition shows a range only once it has enough results of its own):

  • Unworn: $8,500–$11,500.
  • Excellent: $5,450–$7,350.
  • Good: $5,750–$7,800.
  • Fair: not enough market data yet.

Box and papers. A watch sold with its box, papers and service records is easier to sell and to verify than a watch on its own.

Retail reference. We don't show a list price for this reference, because we only publish one we can confirm from a source we can cite.

Recent movement. Change over the past year: +6.3% over 12 months.

Tips for buyers

  • Confirm the reference is 16233 and the movement is the calibre 3135.
  • Ask whether the dial and hands are original.
  • Ask when the watch was last serviced.
  • Compare the asking price with our fair-value range, and with the range for its condition where one is shown.

Tips for sellers

  • State the dial and the bracelet, and include any box, papers and service records.
  • Don't polish the case or bezel.
  • Photograph the dial, bezel and clasp in daylight.
  • Use the published price data on this page as a starting point, and get more than one offer.
