Need some help on Seadweller
Hello. Please be gentle as this is my first post.
I am looking to acquire a Rolex Seadweller, ideally Series V and unworn. Can people give me a sensible idea of what price I might need to pay to find such a watch in the UK. Thanks in advance for your help in my quest to return to Seadweller ownership. |

Take a look around ebay.
That's one of the best ways to see what the market value of most anything is.

I've got an 16600 M-series unworn/fully sealed
in UK they'll ask around £ 6750,- and up... there are not many left |

I paid just under £6k for an unworn M-serial from a reputable French reseller a couple of months ago and imported it into the UK. Watch Club were looking for £6,850 for an unworn Z/V-serial at the same time and it seems to have gone. You pay about a £1000 premium for unworn with stickers vs. mint used. PM me if you like as difficult to source these in the UK and I did a lot of research before picking up mine. It is an absolutely super watch though so worth the effort.

The OP is in the UK and unfortunately the import duties rather take the shine off David's otherwise super deals.

HM-Exclusive (Heinrich) on Chrono 24 have a V-serial BNIB for about what I paid. That's the best deal I can see. I've bought from him before and he is a good guy.

I was sniffing around the eBay & the TRF classifieds the other day, there's a nice selection around at all price points.
