Also is this a chronometer?

It's real, but not particularly well priced. It is not a certified chronometer.

:yeahthat on both counts. Real and optimistically priced! (Although it does look in good condition).

The "0" in the middle of the model number (i.e. B13048) shows it's not Chronometer rated. If it was a "3", then it would be Chronometer rated.

IMO yes. It's an older Chronomat of at least 13 years and non COSC. The "b" in the ref # means it has gold rider tabs and crown but it doesn't push the value up that much. The TT bracelet adds some too but not what the seller is asking. Take a look on Chrono24.com for what sellers are asking. I think you'll find this is probably at least $1000.00 too high.

Thanks!

I saw another one just like it but the model is b13352 so I assume it is a Chronometre.

How much more would it be worth?

It just depends. Condition, servicing history, accompanying boxes, manuals, etc. will all impact the value. Your best bet is to take some time and review the completed sales listings on ebay and see what sellers are asking for similar watches on Chrono24.
