What the sales say
Counting only completed sales, 16 sit inside the window that sets the figure (13 eBay sales and 3 auction results), and the dated list covers January 2024 to September 2026. The peak month for transactions was April 2025 (3). On the auction side, the results are from Grailzee and Phillips. The label is moderate confidence, which suits a reference with a fair, not deep, run of sales. Its most recent sale came 39 days before this data run. We cannot yet grade its price swings: the last quarter holds too few results. A fair price for the 218235 can sit anywhere from about 35% below to 35% above the midpoint. Because it changes hands rarely, a sale still counts for half after 180 days.
Year on year, the median sale is up 13.7% (8 sales against 8). We hold sales for it back to January 2011; a long-run summary needs at least five years of record. eBay and auction buyers have paid much the same for the 218235 lately: the two medians differ by about 1%, from 5 eBay sales against 3 auction results.
Our measured gap between a bare watch and a complete set is about 20% for this family, drawn from 20 sales without the paperwork. Paperwork varied: 11 complete, 0 bare, 1 incomplete. Listed sales ran from about 18% below the worth-about figure (January 16, 2024, on eBay, set not stated) to about 19% above the worth-about figure (January 24, 2026, on eBay, full set), which is the spread a seller should expect.
