Help With a 1016

Hello All

I have been in the market for a nice 1016 and I stumbled across this one.

I saw it in person and its absolutely fantastic; it's one of the cleanest vintage watches I have seen in a long time. The dial and hands have an even patina and the dial still has a slight glow which is very cool. It has been polished but everything looks nice and thick and it runs and keeps good time.

The SN dates it to about 1967 or 1968.

What should would be a fair offer for this watch?

Thanks for your help

you're looking for help but failed to say what the price is for that watch you pictured. if that's top secret then merely do an internet search for comparable examples and then you have your answer.

He wants 11.5k USD.

That price also includes a 93150 rolex bracelet.

Looks like a nice solid example with all original parts

& great patina. It's not a bargain but 1016's in this shape are becoming increasingly hard too find. If you really like the watch than make him an offer for 5-10% less??

good luck
Justin
