Asking for advice, what is a good price for a Pre comex 5513?

[Classique Breguet]

I've got the itch for a pre comex dialed 5513.

For one in dare I say "good condition" what is a reasonable price. For arguments sake, we'll say the average condition that people are asking the it seems approx $13K for.


Thank you in advance for all the helpful, sincere, responders.

Here is what I'm looking at

[Classique Breguet]

Any opinions of value based on these photos?

[Classique Breguet]

Is $11,500 ok for this or not??
Original hands, etc. Supposedly all 100% original.

[Classique Breguet]

Ok, going to pull the trigger.
I guess this is a question no one wants to risk answering.

What's the serial number?

Pricing/value is fairly easy to determine through sales sites.

[Classique Breguet]

5.1 mil serial

[alwayshere]

damn $11K

seems high no?

[Classique Breguet]

I see maybe 6 them currently advertised at around 13k

Where are any listed for less than 11k?
Please post links

I would look for a nice maxi dial,It may cost a bit more but I think it's worth it.....Just my .02

[Classique Breguet]

Thank you for the input, I am looking for people's .O2s

☺

[Classique Breguet]

So no links to any pre-comex available less than 11K?

Well....if they are only available for $12,500 +, I guess that is the current price...

All I see available currently are priced at:

15,300
13,700
13,500
13,900
13,000 Euro
11,800 Euro
11,750 but the case is very rough

Seems if you look back a year or 2 the prices were less, and even less 3-4 years ago.

I'm naive. Could you please explain what a pre-Comex is?

[Classique Breguet]

It is just a fancy name for a type of 5513 dial with larger plots of lume, I guess you could call it a maxi dial also. This dial (I've seen 2 very similar versions were used on the first 5513 comex with the helium escape valve, but no comex logo on the dial yet.

I'm new to this and don't know much yet, so those of you who know more please correct any mistakes in my understanding and description here.

So I bought it, but it arrived with a luminova glowing under blacklight seconds hand. The seller paid the return shipping and gave an immediate refund.


So the hunt continues

Agreed.

Seller said prior to shipping the hands were original, but I don't think luminova was original, heh.

At any rate, when I pointed it out, he did not fight it, he knew it was bad for him so he at least acted correctly and quickly at that point. I did use paypal with fee, so the writing was on the wall. Seller originally wanted only bank wire, which I refused.

Wow, seller re-listed watch on ebay, still with the fake seconds hand...
