Hello I have come across a ladies mid-size datejust for 2300.00 no papers but has a box (don't really care about it) wanted to know if it was a good deal? Aka should I get it for my mom?

Dr.Atom · 23 July 2014, 10:58 AM

Pic #2 am I getting taken for a ride?

macduffi · 23 July 2014, 11:04 AM

What year is it? Does it have the rehaut engraving? Check the weight.

bandeauxgirl · 23 July 2014, 11:04 AM

How old is it? Looks pretty nice!

Dr.Atom · 23 July 2014, 11:05 AM

I'm kinda skiddish if it doesn't have papers

Dr.Atom · 23 July 2014, 11:08 AM

I don't doubt that it is real... This is at a jewelry store. I'm just wondering if this is a compete active price considering that I know very little about women's rolexes...

Dr.Atom · 23 July 2014, 11:10 AM

I just don't know much about women's rolexes...

Dr.Atom · 23 July 2014, 11:13 AM

Looks pretty new... They said that they guarantee that the watch is authentic... They have stores in NYC as well as Miami? I just want to make sure it is a great deal (which is what it looks like to me)

Dr.Atom · 23 July 2014, 11:26 AM

Does anyone have any opinion? I have found this info on-line about it...

It's a decent price.

Not sure what you mean about "papers".. Aren't they going to give you a receipt ??

macduffi · 23 July 2014, 11:32 AM

I gave you an opinion. Does this model have a rehaut engraving? If so, does it exist? How does the weight feel?

Dr.Atom · 23 July 2014, 11:44 AM

There is no rehaut engraving around the face of the watch... but I didnt think that womens watches had rehaut engravings? I could completely wrong? The weight does feel approx correct.

Dr.Atom · 23 July 2014, 11:53 AM

it also has the older clasp design... SO i guess that makes it a little older? So, that might explain why there arent any rehaut engravings?

I need to know by either friday... Bc im going to leave the area...

Alpino · 23 July 2014, 05:19 PM

.

It should be a Lady DJ model 78240

This model was stopped in 2005 , so it can not have engraved rehaut.

You need to know the approximative year of this Watch, query the s/n to determine it (s/n is between lugs at 6h).

red98a4ss · 23 July 2014, 05:31 PM

That's a good deal it looks authentic to me.

crowncollection · 23 July 2014, 07:17 PM

Watch us ok good price

roklee · 23 July 2014, 07:20 PM

Very good price if all orig.

datejusting · 23 July 2014, 10:32 PM

Looks authentic to me. I would say it is a good price.

14060m · 23 July 2014, 10:36 PM

If it's real it's a decent price
I wouldn't pay tax on top though

MonBK · 23 July 2014, 10:50 PM

Watch is worth $2,165.75 so no, not a good deal.

Decent price but not a great deal imo new can be had for $3800 B&P

vitalsignsrn · 24 July 2014, 12:11 AM

Mid size DJ are over $5000 brand new as of todays market. The $3800 is probably what the store was originally selling it for. You can always send off an email to one of the trusted sellers here to get an idea of what their pricing might be for a new one. Or, they might have a used one in possession to sell.

The watch looks good. Apart from no rehault and minor issues like that, would your mother know about that? Probably not. It looks like its in good shape. Tell the store as part of your deal that you want to ensure you have time to return it because you have to authenticate the watch at a Rolex store. ;-) Then tell them you want to go down a bit, say to Mons magical price of $2165.75 INCLUDING tax. LMAO ..but see if they will go lower for you.

Take a breat....b r e a t h e . They are holding it for you.

Great gift for mom. :-)

datejust24 · 24 July 2014, 12:11 AM

watch looks just fine but as others have stated get the sn and reference numbers and offer 2k..

jms_w · 24 July 2014, 12:56 AM

Other factor to consider is whether it's been serviced recently or not. As someone pointed out, newest it could be is 2005 production. A Rolex service can cost $500 or so.

Dr.Atom · 24 July 2014, 10:29 AM

Where are you getting the price of $2,165.75? Also, my mom really wants a watch with diamonds (I know, head is hanging in shame

) How hard is it to install the dial vignettes? And where can I get quality ones? (I know stupid questions, but I have a GV Milgauss so... there is no need to change out the dials)

Thanks,
Atom...
