What the sales say

20 sold results feed this range, 14 eBay sales and 6 auction results. The oldest sale listed here is dated March 4, 2024 and the newest October 4, 2026, a span of about 31 months. The peak month for transactions was August 2026 (4). Auction results here come from HENRY's Auktionshaus, Grailzee and Gardiner Houlgate. It carries a high-confidence label, the strongest we give, so the range has held up well against sales it had not seen. The last recorded result is 22 days old, recent enough to anchor the figure. With a spread of about 26% across 8 recent sales, it is labelled Volatile: expect offers to vary. A fair price for the 116618LN can sit anywhere from about 25% below to 25% above the midpoint. Because it changes hands rarely, a sale still counts for half after 180 days.

Twelve months on, the typical sale has gained about 4.7% against the year before. Its first recorded sale dates from September 2009, so a decade-scale view will have to wait. Split by where it sold, the eBay median runs about 15% below the auction one over 12 months, on 11 eBay sales against 4 auction results.

Without box and papers, the same 116618LN is worth about 11% less on the ratio we measured for its collection (from 84 watch-only sales). Paperwork varied: 10 complete, 0 bare, 1 incomplete. The lowest listed sale, on November 27, 2024 (on eBay, set not stated), came in about 55% below the worth-about figure; the highest, on August 10, 2026 (at Grailzee, excellent condition, full set), about 26% above the worth-about figure.
