Hello -

I would like to know the ballpark value of this Longines Admiral Automatic.

The case is 14k gold - and is 1 3/8 in diameter. The band is also 14k gold and weighs 38 dwt (band alone).

Watch is in very good shape - apparent discoloration in photos is due to flash...

Any info would be appreciated.

The bracelet is worth about $1200, add to that the watch itself, maybe $500-800. It really depends on condition especially the dial, how original, etc, so ballpark $1700+

Thank you Zaf. I know you can't tell from the photos but the watch is in nearly perfect shape - no scratches etc and the dial is flawless - it hasn't actually been worn in last 30 years and I am not sure it has ever been... Assuming all original and in great shape - what would top end be?

I'd say low $2s then. It's not going to be an easy sell, but you can try that to start.
