What the sales say

Our record for the 178271 covers about 34 months of sales, November 2023 to August 2026, and 12 of those results stand behind the current figure (11 eBay sales and 1 auction result). The peak month for transactions was September 2025 (3). Hammer results come from Rago. It carries a moderate-confidence label: the range is a sound guide, but a single sale can still land outside it. The newest sale is 77 days old, so the figure leans on older evidence. Recent trading is too sparse to say whether prices are calm or jumpy. Its band runs about 35% under the midpoint and 34% over it, a guide to how far a fair offer can stray. Because it changes hands rarely, a sale still counts for half after 180 days.

Compared with the previous year, prices for the 178271 are 18.2% higher on the median. Its first recorded sale dates from November 2023, so a decade-scale view will have to wait.

Our measured gap between a bare watch and a complete set is about 13% for this family, drawn from 131 sales without the paperwork. Of the 29 sales listed, 8 came as a full set, 0 as the watch alone and 3 with part of the set. Cheapest in the list: February 21, 2024, on eBay, set not stated, about 30% below the worth-about figure. Dearest: November 26, 2023, on eBay, set not stated, about 52% above the worth-about figure.
