How much is it worth?

Mu uncle just gave me a new beautiful Rolex Submariner. It hasn't been worn or out of the box. I just don't feel right about wearing such an expensive watch so he said that I could sell it and use the money towards something I feel comfortable with. How much do you think I could get for this watch? Again, it's the newest model just bought last week. Thanks in advance.

Why not return it to the store so you can get the full amount he paid for it, that's the most logical thing to do.

I think I'd keep it and wear the heck out of it. It came from a member of your family. That and the history you will develop with the watch will make it priceless.
