What to bid
Rough bid guideEstimate, not advice. How we judge prices
We could not match this listing to auction results for its exact reference, so there is no bid ladder. Here is a rough guide from what dealers ask for the 20 most similar watches instead.
- The house estimates
- USD 3,500 – 5,000
- If it sells like the rest
- about USD 4,130 hammer
At Alex Cooper Auctioneers, watches that sold went for a median 1.18× their low estimate (the middle half 0.88–1.66×), from 78 results; unsold lots are not counted. Estimates are set by the house to draw bidders, so treat this as context, not a valuation.
Bought here, the buyer's premium, shipping, and import VAT and duty to Denmark add about 65% to the hammer. Stop at about USD 3,800 and you pay 20% less than a dealer's USD 7,952: a fair discount for buying without a dealer's warranty or return.

Before you bidfive checks
- The seller guarantees in writing that the watch is genuine and takes it back if it is not.
- The photos show the case back, clasp, and the serial and reference numbers between the lugs. Ask for them if not.
- You know every fee: the buyer's premium (often 20–25% online), shipping and insurance, and import VAT.
- "New", "polished" and "electronically tested" prove nothing: polished means it has been worked on, and an electronic test checks gold, not a watch.
- Decide your maximum before the sale and don't go above it.
