Lusting after SM Professional - How much should I get for my PO?

Am currently seeking a Speedmaster Moonwatch, now the situation is, I have to sell my Planet Ocean to buy it.

Can anyone kindly advise me on how much I should expect for my 42 mm PO?

It was purchased December 2008. The serial on the lug matches all the credit cards, and also the cream hangtag.


It is immaculate, I cant wear watches in my place of work and I dont get much free time, so it has been sat in a box. Im seeking a moonwatch as I love the history connected to it.

My little boy loves anything to do with space also, so Im hoping this is the one I'd like him to inherit which is pretty morbid I know. One bought on the same year of his birth would be perfect also!

After shopping for one recently, I believe you should be in the ballpark of $2500 to $2800 USD (especially since you have two straps). Nice watch.

Thank you for your reply . Me being from the U.K, the top end of that estimation of 2800 USD would be nearly 1800 pounds sterling.

The only thing putting me off is the sheer hassle of selling, Ebay ad Paypal fees are a joke. Its currently on Ebay at the minute, but I think Im going to pull it.

Can anyone advise me, should I get a jewellers to sell it, or should I just continue on the route of Ebay and Paypal?

If I let a jeweller sell it, what sort of commission are we talking roughly?

Thanks guys, the only reason I didnt was because a few things, such as never selling before, no feedback, not a regular poster etc etc.

But yeah, I guess everyone has to start off somewhere right?!
