Should I buy this President?
Hello guyzzz
I have te opportunity to buy a Yellow Gold President, Silver Dial, Italian Day (18283 Rolex daydate year 1983) The seller is a trusted Zenith A.D. The watch is in very good condition, is fully serviced, WR tested and comes with 2 years of warranty and new box and papers ( so no original box and no original papers…they have only the watch). It was an old Client’s watch who decided to sell it to them to get a new watch. The price was 15K€, but i can buy for 14K€ The exact deal on chrono24 has the estimated value of 16 /18 K€ I can post picture later when I go there to see it again but you already know the watch this is the model (not the real watch, that one I’ll post it later) |

It was been over polished and the lugs look nothing like factory Rolex brushing. Bezel is very used. Bracelet has a lot of stretch. I would never buy this watch!! |

You need to post more pictures of the watch. Even less than 1-2 years ago you could find really good ones at 10-12k USD (!!!). I think this one would be at 8-10k euro MAX.

You are mentioning future value but this is in poor condition. I don’t know who would want to buy this watch from you in the future…

Nope. Case looks like it’s been reworked or the end link is bent in the top right lug.
