Hi and welcome to Breitling Source.
A lot of course is going to depend on the condition and whether or not it is accompanied by the original paperwork, proof of servicing and original packaging materials. If as you say the watch is in nearly new condition, and it's the Shark Quartz and not the Chrono, I would value it at about $600-$800 USD.

I would wait for a few other opiinions as well. It's difficult to value this watch given the age and the fact that so few sales have occured recently on the typical sales forums for comaparative prices. With Shark Automatic Chronos selling for about $1000.00-$1200.00 I feel that's probably a reasonable price.

This one's in France being advertised by a dealer - so reckon that the selling price will be at least 10 - 15% lower.

Not sure what county you're in, but you could watch this one to see what it sells for to give you an idea

Wouldn't say this example looks like new though
