worth to buy? 16610LV F series Mark II dial at 8.7k in very good condition

[Rollie-Elvo]

Advice?

[Rollie-Elvo]

Not worth

Thanks bro. I also thought so as the market value of 16610LV is not ridiculously so high yet. Anything less than 7.5k should be deemed resonable.

No necessarily, v series is the last batch for LV,and the market price is from 8k and above.

[Rollie-Elvo]

Thank you. For vintage collector, mark 2 dial plus F-series 2004 and certificates should worth how much then?

I agree with you bro.. Any 16610LV with full set and in good condition is now worth more than 7.5k... those with comes chapter ring is actually closer to 8k.

Go for mark 1 flat 4 dial ba ....

Sorry to hi jack the thread. I am about to offer for a V series (with chapter Ring) , complete set. Seller is asking for 8K.

Worth ?

I sold 2 sets of full set F series with flat 4 at under $7.5k each over a year back. You mean they have appreciated? What price then for my full local set Y series mk1? Hee.

is this watch for keep aka more than 10 years or you intend to sell say within the next 2-3 years? if it is for more than 10 years, then you can consider. why? in 10 years time, how many of these vgc watch can you find in the market?

also, is this set a complete set, i do not mean just box and papers and tag but the commemorative kit with disc. if yes, i would consider.

whether it is mark I, II, III, dial, edition, i wont be too concern. honestly how many people out there is able to tell you the difference between a mark I, II, III. say out of 10 people, 9 will know it is a rolex, out of these 9, maybe 8 will tell you it is a sub date lv, out of these 8, maybe 6 will be able to tell you it is a F serial, out of the 6 maybe only 2 can tell you i is a mark what dial.

then someone will pop by and tell you that you should get the last batch of sub LV because it is the tail end production and no more.

the idea is how you perceive the value of the watch. you yourself will have to decide whether it is worth the 8.7k for this watch.

if i were put in a position to buy a sub lv, then i would go for a mark I dial full complete set with disc in vgc and keep it. that is me.

[triton]

keep it. dont sell.

You are right. It's not just the price. It's about finding another one down the road. Plus, I simply enjoy wearing it once a while.

I disagree somewhat here. When a watch "became" a vintage, a true vintage Rolex collector will be very picky over such details and the dial is the most important of the whole watch. Yes, to the average layman and novice vintage collector, they are one and the same but to the true-blue vintage collectors, they make a world of difference.

You were right in your last point as serious collectors usually (though there are exceptions to it) go for the MK I dial of a collection.

[triton]

absolutely spot on. unless it is true vintage collector, most other rolex wearer may not have a clue.
