I need to sell some things quick! I'm selling my 25btc casascius even tho I really dont want to let it go... My old Rolex is also for sale, got it as a present in 2010 from my super rich uncle. I've worn it for about 2 years and then the little thing to change the time stopped working but the watch itself is still working perfectly! I'd rather sell it because it's over 300$ to fix and IMO it's not really worth it to have something worth 10k on your wrist when you can barely afford going to college. I need money quickly so whichever sells first, (the coin or the watch) is the one I'm going to sell. The watch looks exactly like this one (ill post the link at the end of the post), I can also try to dig out the certificate if you want it. Since it's broken I won't start it with a quote, I'll take the first reasonable offer http://www.bernardwatch.com/Rolex/Datejust/RLX6326

I'd be interested in this if it's not a fake.

I took 2 pics and they're here : http://imgur.com/0MS4urH,lHSZdJi#0It's not the exact same model as I linked but they look almost identical, I think i have the older generation of the model and if i can dig out the certificate I can tell you the exact model. Looking to sell ASAP so please PM me if you're serious about this

you should find that certificate if you want this taken seriously..nothing you have said adds up The 16234 "sapphire quick-set" is a discontinued model. It was replaced with the Rolex 116234 in 2006. The 16234 first hit the market in 1987. its a 2010 model but its the old model of something released in 87 and discontinued in 06?

It has a slight tiny difference from the pics, I can tell because Ive worn mine for years. I'll send you guys the certificate, it's still it my parents house and in 2010 i was still living with them. In the end, uninterested buyers are whining about technicalities I have said (no I'm not a watch guy and I don't know the whole history of rolex)

Use an escrow when sending this. Bobsurplus is going to be your best bet. Those claiming they are interested probably only have dust in their pocket. Good luck.

Yep... That's one old Rolex, not that there's anything wrong with that. But the pics you posted show a watch in clear distress.. The Oyster band is showing signs of ware and tbh.. Its got an ugly face!
I'll pass but good luck with the sale.

If the price was right would you buy it? Let's say 4.25btc I really need btc and the local watch shop offered me 1200$ CAD for it (I'm hoping someone in the us buys it for btc because btc to cad is 300$ right now while its around 240 for USD) If i sell the watch to him and then buy btc, I'm gonna end up with around 1100 or less because of the stupid fees btc sellers take

I like watches and I love rolies but yours is in bad shape. The offer you got for $1200 is a fair one and if I were you I'd take it. Someone sent me a pm yesterday regarding your watch for sale and asked in my opinion what it was worth. My reply was "Without any papers or proof that the watch is even legit I'd stay away personally. The watch itself in it's condition assuming its real is worth about $1500- $2500 The band has stretch, just to fix that you'll need to purchase a new band ($500-$900). The watch is old, You're supposed to service a Rolex every 5 years to make sure the seals are good and don't dry out. Servicing the watch alone will cost at least $500. Then you need to take into account the fact that the seller said the crown is busted and it wont set the time or date properly. This could be a $20 pin or a $1000 movement. Your guess is as good as mine." So its worth $1500-$2500 on the top end if you find a naive buyer.. like I said.. Take the $1200 and run!! At $1200 there's enough on the bone for your local watch shop to fix it up and flip it for 3-4K. Good luck man.

A Rolex is no different from a Honda or a home when it comes to pricing... These things have a market value and you cant fight that. Dont be mad at the business owner who offered you fair money, who then needs to put more money into the watch to be able to sell it. You're Rolex is Old, beat up and BROKEN.. you think its worth a million? And the btc price has nothing to do with people not wanting to buy your watch. Its your watch that has prospective buyers at bay.
