| Post subject: | Cosmonaute Value |
Hi, I am about to attempt to sell my Cosmonaute. It is about 10 years old, in nearly perfect condition, with a nice black leather band. I have been offered $2k for it, American dollars. Is this a fair price? Is it worth more, or less than 2k? I appreciate any opinions. Thanks. |

That seems slightly low. I paid $3,000 for a display back version a year ago, and while those are more expensive than the normal ones, $2K is maybe $200 - $400 low. Of course if it doesn't have box or papers, and needs a service then the value does come closer to $2,000. |

Imo $2000.00 is a bit low for a Cosmo in good condition. I would think $2500-$2800.00 would be more in line as these are the prices usually seen on ebay auctions. There is a 1995 Cosmo right now on Chrono 24 for $2568.00. |

Ok, so it does not have any box or papers, just a Breitling repair soft case and cleaning cloth. The place I'm consigning it at is giving me 2k if it sells, and they're replacing the crystal, so it seems fair I guess. Do you think I could do better if I sold it on chrono or ebay, even though I don't have the box and papers? |

Well of course the place you are consigning it to is taking their cut out of your profits so they are betting that it is worth more than $2000.00. Is there a problem with the crystal? I thought it was in good condition? |

I would try and get the crystal replaced first - $100 or so max and then put it on the Bay. Only problem that you might run into is finding someone to replace the crystal without a full service - which you won't get your money back on, but maybe the person who was going to consign it will help? |
