Hey guys. I was offered a used B1 superquartz from a watch dealer i know. Watch dated to 2003. What is a fair price. I'm really on the fence, as i have been steering away from non-automatic pieces for some time, but there's something about the B1 and chronospace i really like. Thanks guys, and have a good weekend.

Watcha,

Rather hard Q to A. Condition/papers etc etc so sorry you will find the bay a good guide. I suggest you try Andrew Michaels Jewllers, he bought the last 60 and may still have a NOS.

I agree completely with Alan.

Give Andrew a shout, you never know your luck.

I agree completely with Alan, and Verner, (coz they're both clever so and so's)

How much you pay is relative to how much you like the watch, and the fact that they are becoming quite hard to find,
especially the SQ version.

On the bay i have seen the SQ version go for anything between £1000 and £1300

A dealer, i would imagine is offering you one for somewhere in the region of £1400+

Good luck with your decision.

Nick

Hey guys. It comes with inner/outer box and papers. Initial asking price is 2100 Cdn, but he has been unable to sell it and is offering it at 1900. I would rate it conservatively at 9/10. Very very small scuffs on the clasp only.

Sounds pretty correct.
