How much should I pay for this watch
Hey guys my friend is selling me his AP because he lost his job. I don’t know much about AP but I do like the watch the only prob is that it has after market diamonds all over it. So I don’t want to buy it for an outrageous price. I want to be able to buy it and if needed be able to sell it without taking a huge lost. He’s asking $25,000 what should I counter offer?

IMHO without an appraisal and verification that the watch is real, it is worth nothing.

I think he's asking a fair price. Maybe offer 23k

If he is your "friend", why wouldn't you pay him what he wants? Now as for it being real...….

I don’t want to give away my money. I want to make sure if he can’t pay me back I won’t have an issue reselling it. At a reasonable loss something under 3k since I’ll probably be wearing it. As for authenticity I’m pretty certain it’s real. I would definitely get it checked out at a jeweler before purchase since I don’t know much about Ap. I’m a Rolex guy

25 is a fair price, have it checked, looks okay to me, but cant be too certain by judging with what we have to work with

Your friend is going to have trouble selling it... super customized watches that cannot be reverted back to normal are very difficult to sell and most people who have 25k to spend on a watch aren't sold on bargains unless it's for something they already wanted (i.e. a customized AP)... I wouldn't buy it unless you really want it... don't let the perceived resale value influence you too much because you will be hard pressed to get back anything you were reluctant to spend yourself...

Thank you for the replies. I’ve been super hesitant for these same reasons. I’ve been saving to actually buy a Rolex presidential 40mm but I figured I could help a friend out and worst case wear this untill I get my money back. We agreed on $22k and I feel comfortable if he doesn’t come back for it hoping I could get at lease $20k worst case

Ah that made me laugh...I guess to each his own..That said, If I did start suddenly sundowning or something, and elected to purchase a watch like that, I would definitely have the authenticity of that bling-thing verified before I handed over any money at all. |

It looks like a Canal Street Liberace disaster.
Unless you are a Grillz wearing rap star...... three-fiddy is all it’s worth. |
